							disgorge
at the Konzentrazionslager
						            the faux pas relief
    from urine mud faeces sweat and tears
unkempt armpits...

For those of a military cast of mind
There are many poems they can find

Butterfly tongue teasing mine, flitting, tip-tip, slow, slow, quick.

The Ruba’iyat of Créteil Lake – Part Thirteen

Bloodied needle leaves stain the Zen-rock cobbled garden
The derelict torn womb spills seminal fluids on the ground
Fallopian tubes shredded...

Abandoned Yellow Star,
Existential apostle.
Solar flares haunt outworlds, "I'm It, you're not."

Hot but not the hottest star.
A tiny lifeless star.

Venus will have more sunlight in her hair.
Acid clouds, corrosive ground.
A great...

One footstep forward and it was a...

On Mars In Mars

Volcano hollowed sound, echoes in Olympus Mons
Thin atmosphere cratered in ancient crevasses
Storms last three hundred years or more
Etch ancient lines red iron oxidation 
Rocks move from one place to another
As the only...

Martian Gothic (short)
Unique environment unique people.
Fifteen thousand metre mountain vertical south face.
Two pretty Goth girls stood on the edge.
One footstep fall to Martian plateau.
