Dreamscape With Giraffes I am a search engine. / My landscape is XX erotic.
Freeze Frames A girl and a boy / Holding hands for public inspection.
Grafton In Spring The winds pasture in the clouds; / The earth breathes:
I Remember I slipped my kiss into your naked mouth. My hands
Sex Metal Sex metal zex metal zow metal zap metal - / Look, George, look!
Somewhere Far From the Sea It is a cold day but the fat boy sweats, /Giggling his jowls to bouncing blubber,
The Death of Nestor In Pylos, old man Nestor grins: too often. / Nine battlefields creak in his kneecaps.
The fireworks are numb. Their vocal chords are gelatine / The car is combusting, combusting, combusting.
The quality of glass is light. Her touch is vanilla.
Troy (Book 1: The Theft of Helen) It is night. / Lofted above the whalesmoke waves of Ocean,
Waterfall Under extremest skies, asundered mountains / Rift through the mist and are gone.
Still Life Sits on his bed with his five mates round him, / Fresh from the pub,

Debaunched his orchids, and called forth
The hidden pitches of panic
Out from their lair of bones.
Warpoets The warpoets are singingOil, profit, peace, power,
Sweet lubrication,
Pumping in through the back border,
Drive-in window war.
Raw Materials A to be B to be CTo be progress be D to be E to be F
To be G to be H to I to be J - We have jumped to the future,
We have past-tensed the war,
We are still at the startline but we did win the race.
K to be K to be L to be B -
He's sweating, he's bleeding, he's kicking to C -
But we did win the war, we were M, we were N,
The spinfocus grinfocus mandered a win,
We were O, we were P, we were Q, we were R,
He is bone, he is blood, he is buried, he's dead,
But our flag's on the S, we're ahead of the game,
It's a game boy, a wargame, a deathgame, a joy,
It's a T, it's a U, it's a V, it's a -
Stumble ....
Where is my W?
Why are you looking at me like that?
I want X, I want Y, I want Z,
Home, scott free.
