Vanaf de veld we zagen De Stad
zijn poort verlichte door een meanderende vermiljoen latei
En toen we kwamen er nabij we zagen meer
duidelijk de kleine indiaan...
...met z'n roze-karmozijn kromsabel boven naast z'n hoofd.

The Market
No connection here, now none.
Either or
Techno, so apropos for this stale old bar
Swing about, now it's clear
it was before that I've been here
Prior to this, there was no connection at all
Swing back round, and now by the wall
a rag-tag dog panting to a musical score
In the laundromat next door
the trolls invoke their accents and chide
.......an empire of riches
Styrofoam and garbage laps in the tide.

New Providence
dusty yellow day tilts through the rectangular window frame
great halls out below
and the country beyond?
not Illyria, Macedon or Thrace
just a hill, in an English city
from the memory of a long-dead, flaxen haired man
who paddled languidly to an anchored carrack
and paused by the hull to quip
'such gentle reeds that sway'
and then, at this notion
set sail for the wide and interminable ocean.

By Corinth
Malthos, Ouranos, Thalassa
Evanescent beauties
Xenophon and Morpheus
polymaths both
Long steady walks on the plains by Corinth
instinctively alone
from Arcadia until Attica
Gentle hunger
even elsewhere am I, all the time
Uniquely simple
it is by the coast upon a heath
in varying shades of skin and sky
forever walking past the heather
like a spectre
forever boggling over a name
for the colour of the ocean by night
beneath overcast heavens
Itinerant Malthos
at Ouranos
by Thalassa.

Déjà Vous
Can you say 'Perth' in a Dutch accent?
Could you forego style for function?
Are you a typical guy or girl?
Do objects distract you through their intention,
or how they intend you to feel?
If so, stuff your face some more
Because your heart's about to hold that gun to your head and make you say;
"It seems like I've been here before".

De Engelse Stad
Door het raam de Klingon Hoge Raad.
En het land verderop?
Qo'noS niet. Alleen een kop
van een Engelse stad
dat binnen m'n verbeeldingskracht heb gehad
