Zolar the Inet God

Call To Arms
There didn’t have to
be a reason
no one thing
no trigger
it was always boiling
just beneath the surface

the number of soldiers
lying empty on the desk
next to the ashtray.
You know the one

Frozen Ground
I bent down to pick up a penny from the frozen ground.

Mrs Stahlberg
Somewhere soft and padded....
Today her hands are free to explore.
Her throat burns with acid from a heave of fresh gore.

in their pots
up the scummy steps
of the...

or the Mexicans.
Or the Latinos,

Opus Mysticus
Opus Mysticus
Let us enter... and be silent.
My insanity hangs on the wall with all the other Van Goghs.
Sleeping snugly between semen stained sheets
