a baby bootie
ecstatically clings to her
clear garrison cap —
the navy does not issue
children in sailor’s seabag

Is my soul housed
in walls of flesh,
and my flesh, prisoner
of nature?
Where is the garrison?

to speak,
to ration,
to segregate,
is division,
choking unity
from man,
the beast.
Alone in the New-World....

Prophet Harold
Hills weeping
Streets and sex litter
With echoes of anxieties
As pattering feet taking solace
In their shrines
The second coming...
Oceans of nightmares garrison my iris,
Waiting for his coming,
With a bottle of hallucination,
I saw his coming...
My name is Prophet Harold...

Was arguing with myself
whether grey begins where black and white meet
or in the blend just beyond
When sunlight caught my sight
tricking itself onto metal
A garrison of splintered sub nuclear fractals
causing diamond headaches
in my minds eye
But if the colours
never met
would the grey just fade to grey...
