Spookyland – The Silly Fucking Thing

On Spookyland

the earth, clad in her coloured glory,
is
a pin.
no more or less, chaps.
perhaps several
overstatements have been made
about the size of her womb.
I know she is pregnant.
but maybe not as due as
she first seems.
there has always been clamour and clang
throughout the ages.
there has ever been the roar of pretense
and the deafening cage of violent thought.
but through the cracks of her pinched skin
some bard, prophet or thing
connects.
comforts, sums and protects
the swelled heart that pin
does long to stick
itself in




Have your say:
