ELIZABETH KERLIKOWSKE Alternative MedicineIf it bothers you to watch your father die, try watching porn. If porn bothers you, try a field of churning snow angels. If snow angels bother you, try soot. Acres of soot. Soot snow. If chimneys bother you, try fire. Candles bonfires Hell: all good. If you get burned, try aloe vera. Call it cauterized. If that pain doesn't take, try leeches. If their ballooning bothers you, try pins. Tattoos. If torture bothers you, try watching your father die. poetryrepairs #198 v14.03:033 |

JAN OSCAR HANSEN Men OverboardOn a sheet of fair green ocean the crew of a shipwrecked tanker float bobbing up and down in a synchronized harmony. They have got yellow life jackets on a colour that keeps sharks at bay, not that it matters now that seagulls have gouged their eyes out. When night descends gentle as a blanket lovingly tucked around a sleeping child they will be washed ashore on a paradise island of golden sand and coconut palms.and there they will dry and be slim under a tropical sun till they are lighter that the tail feather of a sparrow then they will fly with the prevailing wind and see what they didn't have time to see as crew on practical ships made of steel poetryrepairs #198 v14.03:033 |
