Fragments

Let the powder erupt

2011-12-02T10:36:00.001Z

College born kids spin silently in the rain

2011-12-01T14:12:00.001Z

Power keg
Trip switch
How's your mother getting on?

2011-10-28T17:18:00.001+01:00

Sink your teeth into the doughnut and feel the
Sugar spread
Let it infuse
You
Let it seethe in your brain
And when you are old
And diabetic
You will not regret it

2011-10-21T09:03:00.000+01:00

Candles burn down and the wax collects on the table
Finger impressions
I walk to work
The other people do not do what I do at night

2011-09-22T18:25:00.004+01:00

Bone scratching

The leaves part as Tara tears away
The cocoon
Shreds
Simpering
To the Ground
How did you know I would be here?

2011-09-16T17:27:00.000+01:00

The candle cracks
Worms rise
And the spindle turns in ghosts

2011-08-13T16:59:00.001+01:00

A whisper in the lines

2011-08-08T09:58:00.001+01:00

Sparks will fly
From angel eyes
And the truth is lost
Between them

2011-08-01T20:10:00.001+01:00

Candle quick spit fire around the sky and blow your top
See me when I see you
See you spin
In the trees
Beneath me
I will see you when you come

2011-07-30T22:03:00.001+01:00

The peacetime smudges
Where are the dolls?
I know where I'm coming from

2011-07-10T09:46:00.001+01:00

How can a planet await such glorious disconnect

2011-07-01T12:39:00.001+01:00

Spitch spatch
Tried to see her but she was gone

2011-06-29T09:42:00.002+01:00

They unpicked and unthreaded me
I was broken apart, detached, I came to pieces
They didn't care
They didn't give two fucks what they'd done to me

2011-06-23T22:45:00.001+01:00

A flash of poppies

Red wax on blue fingers
Where would you go?
When you know
You aren't supposed to here.
Red wax on blue fingers

2011-02-25T10:55:00.002Z

The litter spins and clambers

Empty
Come down
Let it all go

2010-09-19T11:37:00.001+01:00

The land of different colours

2010-09-16T11:20:00.000+01:00

And pop, the atmosphere is gone...

2010-08-24T13:47:00.002+01:00

Lines of white
Complete themselves

2010-08-15T07:53:00.003+01:00

In the morning
When you're the only one making noise

2010-08-14T10:22:00.002+01:00

Sandles
In lines

2010-07-10T00:36:00.002+01:00

The last flickering

Chickens
Screech
Call

2010-04-22T15:23:00.001+01:00

Upside-down
Trees grow from the ceiling
And the world is truly huge

2010-04-17T13:47:00.002+01:00

Breathed for a moment

2010-04-06T12:08:00.001+01:00

Fleshless

Cancer and sparks, closed pores
Sympathy Unwanted

Boiled sweets crack
A sherbet explosion
Twenty-five years ago

2010-03-25T09:06:00.001Z

Gold leaf paper
Floats ahead
Of cigarette smoking man

2010-03-11T09:05:00.001Z

The dust comes down and through the desert fog he is coming

2010-03-08T09:28:00.001Z

Ice and time
Watches
Clocks
Tick
The cuckoo returns

My fingers won't work

2010-03-02T10:07:00.001Z

Leaves crunch
People battle
Dogs walk their owners

2010-02-28T09:09:00.000Z

Scrabble chips and balls of dust
Dried ink pens and coins

2010-02-27T10:21:00.001Z

The moss
Soft
The trees
Hard
The sky
Blue
In pieces

2010-02-25T10:27:00.001Z

Handles
On doors

Click
Open
A new world

2010-02-24T08:55:00.001Z

Pandora opens her box
The snow comes down
They're in the mist

2010-02-23T09:17:00.001Z

Splinters
Pins

2010-02-22T09:46:00.001Z

Breadcrumbs around your eyes
Sand has settled
Asleep on the beach

2010-02-20T11:03:00.000Z

The timbers creak and join sounds from A to B

2010-02-18T10:08:00.001Z

A red stripe
A slice
Bare

2010-02-16T09:26:00.001Z

Candles burn and the icicles fall to the ground
Crack
Splatter
Pieces all over the snow

2010-02-13T11:04:00.001Z

Towels burns and bums
Children too close to the heat

2010-02-11T08:47:00.001Z

Candles ignite
The room is lit with yellow
That goes to black
The cat moves around my legs

2010-02-08T09:46:00.001Z

Pandas
Step step step step
Chew

2010-02-07T09:58:00.001Z

Honey and syrup and sparks and nuts

2010-02-06T09:08:00.001Z

Panda eyes and polar bear sheets
Heaven help me
The cold comes

2010-02-05T08:36:00.000Z

Candles burn and I reach out to them. I squeeze the flames between my fingers and then stare at the dirty black marks.

2010-02-04T22:57:00.001Z

Sparkles in your eyes
Drift and fall like snowflakes
Till they settle
And swallow you whole

2010-02-04T22:54:00.001Z

Dusted
Non-believers fly to the moon
Where they eat cheese
And run round in circles

2010-02-04T08:13:00.001Z

Rain space
A special kind of quiet
No one can hear you

2010-02-03T08:48:00.000Z

Seagulls are snow birds
They can't be seen when there's ice on the beach

2010-02-02T13:50:00.001Z

The weight of you on my arm
The weight of your arm on me

2010-01-27T09:37:00.001Z

Soft moss
Carnivorous plants
Open mouths

2010-01-26T09:10:00.002Z

Patterns in the mist
Rearrange
Make elephants
Soldiers
Birds
Out in black

2010-01-25T09:46:00.003Z

Fire
Marshmallows

2010-01-24T20:08:00.001Z

Ice crunches inside my ear

2010-01-24T08:04:00.000Z

Dancers
Black white green
Smoke screen
Something in the haze

2010-01-22T08:02:00.001Z

Campbell's soup and mustard
Stir it in
It makes brown stripes

A bird in the pond
Spins and goes on
And I go to the new house
With the new Mum and Dad

2010-01-15T11:51:00.001Z

The moment when the snowman's nose falls off

2010-01-15T08:32:00.002Z

Patterns flash across my eyes
Horses in the snow
Where will they go?
Only to the edge of the field

2010-01-13T09:33:00.001Z

Spinning in the grass
Fresh
Green stuff
Up my nose

2010-01-13T01:08:00.001Z

Sand in my eyes
And my fingers
Can't
Claw it out

2010-01-01T20:37:00.001Z

Seagulls white-out the sky
Like snow too close
Where are the angels?

2009-12-30T17:20:00.003Z

Swans snort like pigs
For yesterday's bread
And ducks rise like tanks from the water

2009-12-29T15:47:00.000Z

Snow
In perfection
On cars
Destroyed by my hand

2009-12-19T15:10:00.001Z

Raisins between my teeth
Stick
Where are you?

2009-12-19T09:29:00.001Z

The click clack of lazy days
The world turns
Nobody knows

2009-12-18T09:45:00.000Z

The cold is in white lines on the window
Inside and out

2009-12-15T11:46:00.001Z

Whispers so gentle
They're lost for a moment
They only make sense
Later on

2009-12-14T14:54:00.000Z

A huge white totem sticks straight up
The duck rights itself and quacks

2009-12-09T10:26:00.000Z

A bare bulb
In a white room
Translucent curtains
A sun coming

2009-12-06T04:42:00.001Z

I put my arms around you. The wind is strong, orange leaves.
I put my arms around you.
The winter comes, and there is ice.
I put my arms around you.
The darkness comes and a stranger comes.
I put my arm around you.
Two children, double pushchair.
I put your hand in mine.
I press my fingers between yours.

2009-12-05T08:39:00.001Z

The ghosts wipe their eyes
They can't believe what they're seeing

2009-12-01T10:09:00.002Z

Underneath the casing
Inside the box
Spiders scramble to get out of the way
My past
Hidden
Forgotten
It is time for it to emerge

2009-11-29T09:02:00.001Z

The p u n c t u r e d holes of a tear-off slip
Birds
Against
The sky

2009-11-28T13:14:00.001Z

A strange mist has come down
And Arthur's Seat is wiped from the skyline

2009-11-25T09:16:00.001Z

And it rained for 3000 years...

2009-11-25T09:09:00.000Z

Murder and vengeance and chocolate

2009-11-23T10:06:00.001Z

The crunch of ice
In my mouth
Cold comfort
For a love lost

2009-11-18T09:46:00.000Z

The mackerel in the tin is congealed
Not for breakfast

2009-11-16T10:27:00.001Z

The streets were quiet and the dogs howled.
Rabid foxes roamed the streets.
Glass cracked under his feet.
And the world was scattered. There was no day.
Only night.
And he was alone.

2009-11-13T20:19:00.000Z

Hold tightly
It's really cold

2009-11-13T10:08:00.001Z

Stamp stamp stamp stamp stamp stamp stamp stamp stamp stamp stamp stamp stamp stamp stamp
Those feet
And the worms will come up

2009-11-10T09:46:00.001Z

  Three little blackbirds and fifteen seagulls
Cleaning

2009-11-10T09:02:00.002Z

Fluorescent lights
Out the window I stare
To where real light is
And dreams

2009-11-09T09:21:00.000Z

The mist is around the trunks of trees
Subway West End
Three o'clock in the morning
