Mangawhai Heads

Midway

Midway
Thru the context
Wrapped
Tight in himself hanging
On a point
A blunt 
                     Hollow point

Without the point
Without the hanging
He’s stuck
Midway
Out the door


Balefire

 
 
Worse

Anything
                  Can
                             Get
                                     Worse
                                                 he says
                                Behind 
                     Bars
         Open 
                      As you like

Tear in the Matrix

 
 
I Wish

Wish I was in
Orange lingerie
Missing a name
Adamantine bones
Radiating
Fizzy
Hormones
Spitting farther than
Willie McTell
Poaching
Faberge eggs
 
 
Space Junk
