STYROFOAM or Inspiring Messages for Daily Living.
Events being enigmatic and multi-causal,
histories multiply, and cosmologies
fight amongst themselves, tentacle
grappling with tentacle.
Explanations and diagnoses are
variously Political, Pragmatic, Moral, Aesthetic, or hinge
On a system of logic entirely
detached from REALITY ITSELF
Speaking of which,
Just how stubborn a thing
Is it? REALITY.
And, how can we
Pulverise it? Powers of Positive
Thinking
Upsell yourself into a new suit
Sit, sleek and purring in Midnight
Mohair
There has to be a Way,
to clap your hands, and tell the
rain to stop
falling – but,
at what price?
And who pays?
Magic is for kids, and stolen
kisses sour, plus
BLOWBACK
which spoils every party, and
triumph turns to the licking
of wounds.
My current hypothesis,
Force is Impotent,
It always ends in tears.
Which is to say
Push against the resistance,
but not until it gives way
cos
that
is the
moment
you’ve lost your balance,
Judoed,
And arse
Meets
Mat
With
A
Thump.
