Giraffe on anxious heels
bought in Sandton, toddle 
along with intense haste
a dream point unheard
lipstick smudges, mascara 
leaks of AK47 dust she rifled

Bullfrog...

Foundations

...The house I wrote in
became an apartment for the ocean,
then a zoo for the innocently maladjusted,
then a garden for dreaming cats,
then floor-space - just floor space
to walk back and forth on....

Her Last Chair

...A breathing weight pushes flesh
into fabric and wood.
A cellular heat melds, sinks inward.
Fibrous miasmas knit cloth and foam
to a ligamentous persona.

Nightly, less of her
is peeled away to...

A Broken Dream

...There’s a lake called the lake of Illusions,
And there’s a house right by its side.
It’s a house where I’m hiding,running away from memories.

Midsummer Night

...Abstract algorithm. Brooding distraction, 
cleverly cloaked in digital fleece.
Enigma encoded. Like so many fireflies,
Hastening gauntly heavenward.
Juniper immolation.
Ides jaundiced light.

Toad

...Whither now hunker-shins?
You have a sweet countenance,
a squat grace,
always middle-aged
on the still edge of a speeding sun.
Another swift day has begun
yet here you sit among the traffic

Mishandled Mahogany

...Stop
Shedding and sowing
Begin bracing for burning
In land of melting
Pots

The crews parallax
Of the trees
Which conceives

Drain and wither
