On his blindness National Poetry Library

WebInterdimensional kiss folding in on itself like a star. Supermassive neutron collapsing in hot gloss bomb colours. Blood rich lyricism.

The Windows National Poetry Library

WebThere's a poem on those one-winged birds. We'll send it you by fax. Monstrous trauma. That makes your eyes water. There's a right babe among those Turinese bints. That'll make you lift the blinds.
