CUFF WITH A BUTTON
Grabbed by the photo camera
sure as shootin’ obscura
hand pressed
spine flattened
drag my ass to lazy
bed my scabby
hammer toes
ringing anvil
sparks fly
make a copy
Pick a bale full
of buttons tug
the shirt to close
the end is nigh
press the spine
game of apocalypse
now yesterday’s
dirty laundry
forgotten
line please
For the morning
Back to bed
cat on my shoulder
my nose stuffed
with my hair of Guss
HOME AND AWAY

We let a “best final” virgin expire, that would be version, and Murray will send a crystal clear mp4 update which we will upload this weekend. Weekends are tough, people have lives and other things to do but create this perfect 10 minute video of selected readings from my lovely new book Always Breathe. I can be a pest. But send money and we will send you a book. Every which way.
