An Imagist #poem Ruined The poet stared his quarry down, Felt sure it would relinquish It's essence (as per Ezra Pound), To start what he could finish. A glass of water on a shelf, Mundane, yet beautifully so. With the glass's gaze upon himself The words began to flow. The poet set forth with vigour and health, Struck paper with his pen. But the glass exploded, broke the shelf: Spontaneous combustion strikes again.

        A Revelation Time stops. Or is irrelevant now. Centuries of chasing, squandering, saving, killing, running, cheating, Have come to nothing. If there were rivers still, they would run dry. Mountains, crumble. Governments, fall (far too stable now we bow to the bureaucracy). Immortal souls signed away in double carbon copy crumbling to dust. If there were rivers still. The Revelation has rung, clear and screeching in our ears, and we don't know what to do now. Now we have realised that we cannot eat money.

          The Night Shift My brittle mind groans. The clock patiently reaches around for it's hands While mine scribble, dazed In the fake toobright light. Time doesn't fly, it slumps, like an old man dragging his feet, Measured in words now. Counting up the seconds to sunrise or bed And the end of my self-inflicted endeavour.
