Poems
IN AN ORIENTAL VEIN
In deep amid
a
shallow society
the man
at length
grows a pigtail
becomes a miner
end
was last seen
tunnelling his way to
China
the new
- El Dorado
THE BIG PICTURE
The
phantasy network
established
maintained
in order to
re-inforce
crumbling values
slipping expectations
the
phantasy network
you
kid me
I'll
kid you
we'll
kid them
and
together
we
can
create
a
pretty picture
large enough to
hide behind
- for a while
