Trees

Amongst roses, lamps and trees
A black suit, with grey beard shouted
"The end is nigh!"

She walked by
hair like a vapour trail
eyes like landing lights
guiding us home.

I should have taken heed.

Tears of yellow and red
from twisted metal thorns
Fist rising out of the earth
brown and ugly.

But we do not see.

View From A Cliff Over Sea

My nerves jarred into being
by frost and nicotine.
The Stars creating a ceiling
horizons as walls

The edge of a cliff
with sharp teeth
one hundred miles below
and golden fields behind me.

Fuck this, I'm cold.
Even through your raincoat
I can see when you're naked
You are my favourite book/film/music.
If I had never met you I could draw you.
But I'd never now your name.

In 2 hours, I'll be up
See you in 10.
