Suicide
a Minotaur
stalks
the Labyrinth
the Folds
of my Brain
Dark
Foul Smelling
Masculine
He sees me
he bellows
he paws
the Slime
with his Black Toe
Nails
Jack Fruit Breath
shoots out his
Nostrils like
Steam out of a Whistle
Steam out of a Whistle
I know he wants to
impale me
but Every Couple of Days
I venture in
to look at him
The Game is
I must find my Way
out of the Labyrinth
before he skewers me
on his Jet Black
Horns
I run with the Conviction that Some One must care
Some where
in Space
or through Time
that I have lived
a Door opened in
Darkness
an Ant Hill stacked
around a no Thing
that screams out of
my Eyes
calling a Saviour to me with a Double Helix's Wail:
“ Perpetuate
Procreate
Children
Send me vomiting forward
Let me throw away my Skin and keep moving
This is why Music was invented
Dances begun
Electricity poured down Bones
Songs torn from Sternums
Poems jotted down for Safe keeping
Stories compiled
Religions asserted
Wars fought
Enemies let make love
and dry the Sheets
on which they tussled
with their re Captured
Breath and
Hysterical Laughter
The Button pushed and the Cycle repeated
The Washing Machine started
the Dinner Ware placed
and the Garden tidied
So you don't have to listen to the Siren
within the Siren
shout
‘ What's the Point?
What's the Point?
What's the Point? ’
Every Time the Beast gets out ”
A Hero saves me
Every One wins
even if no One gets it
and I argue with the
Mythologists
