wriggle room

don't worry!

seeds find a way
 to push through the shale
to be seen from the planes
michael k has been wasting away
he is not sick
he’s always like this
prince albert is a walk of three days

to find some place
that doesn’t have guards 
and chicken wire walls 
just a piece of the dirt
pumpkin vines can emerge
seeds find a way
to push through the dirt

Life And Times Of Michael K

hey friend put your tools down
it’s like red bull time
hey friend you’re a fool like me too
let’s drink to that

thirst from this life
up at sunrise
dead in the eyes
 arrive at the site
niacinamide
 help me to fly
flutter the heart
sharpen the mind
  blue silver light 
taurine inside
 spirit of the bull
give me your life

Tools Down Red Bull Time

keep trying

got off the tram tonite
ended up at bakers delight
and I'm skint dancing to the balwyn blitz
double dimes ill nickelback in time to realise
the songs are kinder when ur high
dancing to jukebox hill hits
we can street fighter for a while
if u like losing with a smile
its an area i can improve i must confess
lorde im not proud of my address
its seedy sunday yet again
stare down the barrel of a cafe cap a mess
will my head go under id say yes
its just a matter of time so place ur bets
and a milkshake keeps me alive 
but i am too shy to reply
my hands won't stop their shaking though they try
they earthquake like handshakes or like
my skateboarding mistakes when
6 yr olds roll down whitehorse looking fly
and all i wanna do is stay inside
crawl under this blanket and hide

balwyn blitz

selby the talking dog

pls ignore me i implored her
till my lifes a quarter ordered
or a court order gets me life or more
where the well is dry but thats good for thought
all i need is four walls without a door
concrete cells stick my soles to the ocean floor
here at last i can think
here i can get some sleep
please replenish the world with my flesh
plant me down and grow some spinach
cause even alive the only thing id finish
would be my dish at morning breakfast
unless i've got the whole thing backwards
starting was so much worse to begin with
get off my bandwidth i can't hardly stand it
unless ur pessimistic and pedantic
in which case would u like to dance

eat ur spinach

drank bleach to birth a feast
pretty baby born with little legs
hunched over while i bled away
wonder watching the chick levitate

september 2015

i ride my bike
thru traffic lights
get stuck in the lines
where the trams slide
im on my way
to my workplace
spend most my days
slicing vegetables for pay
i close my eyes and 
feel the breeze as i glide
pedal till my bicycle
starts to fly 
and its a pretty sight
my boy u have
left quite a gap
in the fabric of myself
thank god i have a cat
im quite a sight
a hangover on 2 tires
learning to handsfree ride
another cycle of life
i close my eyes and 
feel the breeze as i glide
pedal till my bicycle
starts to fly 
and i get hit by an SUV
with a hawthorn sticker
on its back windscreen

authentic dirt
