[bodytext] => It's the fast food culture of instant gratification stale fragrance, museless scribble, imitation apple It's the pound signs whirring. Bleaching into the pallid visions of the straw stuffed herd It's the scraps of mental refuse blown by throwaway speech down neon defecated high-streets Even teased off the back of spoons vanity thirsts for its own reflection a youth lost in hairspray and wardrobes It's the weekday public house of domestic escape artists wearing their hearts on their arse spunking time It's Brand baited children unzipping their mothers purses with their eyes alone and Fathers watching on with widescreen eyes in high definition Love a hearts molestered currency Love, butchered, molestered. Gas- ping between the legs of a Harlots current account. Love, abandoned on white lying alters when hearts leaped like church bells The modern hedonists cut their grapes with chalked razors bleeding the juice into the wired eyes of their disciples. The mosaics of Illiad and Odyssey long bludgeoned into shards scattered around unageing monuments and etherised patients, quiver and fleet light trembling for the muse to burst beyond the paralysis and disconnect that padlocks our porches and smears our panes. The airbrushed fantasy of pulseless fame is gunk gunk that accretes in the modern eye and leaves all of value on the periphery of vision. O the youth sucked stars caught beneath the landslide of collapsing pedastools, even cased in death their epitaphs are as delible as chalk. The modern eye inherits a diluted world.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
