Happy Happening
The feeling is the cloud a foggy lid different shapes interchange
The threat of rain suspending the gap in the lake
And so here it is, as a potential loops and catches the record
Pulling the plug on a drawing of a cuckoo (maybe)
Those short steps in time, at least, that take things we should do from within
A whirring fan, hands upon hands, everything lost wasting time
It’s so scary to bowl along blind, biting darkness for an answer
Against the old lamp, that unexpected passage that goes
Snip snip snip, its wholes parting to execute sensation
Graffiti wall, violet tongue
Somewhere between an institution and a flash in the pen
So we fall the fall of administration in the direction of our wound
Sky black confetti in the sky committing ourselves
A buried sleepless time like instinct steeped in a honey of history
As we repeat: How can I swallow if I can’t make a digest?
You took away my teeth, you giraffe-loving dentist!
A wrong turn has taken its hold
Walking inside the pavement to save time
Playing golf with the mind of a whole hog
I joined up your dots and drew myself an ellipse
Laughing, a basket of ways out of the situation
Sure the mud is thick in here but has not yet happened to make us happy
There! A history already rich in chance
Hiding in the lego blocks of the woods
Where all the Apache arrows direct you back to the wonder of your chest
Yes, you were all so keen it seemed so rubbish not to
