LE FUTURE

Guitar deconstructedMandolin and Clarinet
Personage Feminine
Picasso and the Elephant man
Trailed conversations
Much fewer dreams
Doctor Seuss is laughing
In headphones and jeans

Wires and wires and wires
Sunken eyes hollowed out
Portals to hell’s mirror
With a death-head design
Bowl-legged musclemen
Flexing in circles
Pregnant women a hundred years old

Robots pushing baby carriages
In spiked head gear
Minefields in the front yard
Skinny legs in big shoes
“Toasted” she said
Pieces of the Berlin Wall
In Yellow and Robins egg blue

Criminals outlined
In black and white chalk
Remove your head before leaving
A Monkeys ass and an infant child
Cats with extended tails
Eating Butterfish

Melancholy fields
Where the poets lie down
Missing someone you will never ever meet
Arrows stuck in mid-air
Proportions diminished
Woken from a bad dream into something worse

Thoughts turned to sand
Dead as a doorman
Overlapping blowjobs
And a smiling owl
Stickmen giving orders to Cut-outs
They're building Monuments to Monsters

Mindless peace doves and artistic sports
One eyes sculptures wearing Make-up
Jacqueline's mane missing lips
Wooden toilets
And a white bra strap
