A nuclear fusion of ideas
The lighter atoms of the self
Are forced together
And become solid
And beautiful.

A warning flashes across the glass
ending in a world of wires
an ptical illusion
forced through a camera 
fog
then nothing
the world is gone

The first rays of light
Touching the frost on the roof
Of my neighbor's house.
The sound of forced-air heating
Mingling with the taste of tea.

The Rood

In church he longed for the rood
Which forced him to act so rude
The crucifix he wants
In his thoughts he flaunts
To escape and not be pursued

Yes, we were forced into national pride,
Singing the anthem at assembly time,
Little patriots to the core,

You will read this and think twice;
Yes, you are stealing my thoughts.
