“the best way to study the brain is to
remove it
from the skull
however this approach still
has its limitations” (textbook on psychology)
ponder this ass
how it moves
and sometimes not
how it empties
out the eternal
waste of kebabs
and hamburgers
and much vegetation
see how it
bleeds and burns
for you
and when the
sphincter
pokes out
wrap finger
in paper
poke back in
I’m 37 my hair not yet grey
my beard trim my head shaved
my belly full of rumble
and thus I sit
busting the bubbles of my thoughts
on this busy highstreet
in north London
oh literacy
there is my hair in my shoe
and my eyeball twitches
dried sweat crumbles
from my eyebrow
I am such and such
of stuff
that dreams
are made of
