minima-B was an idea for my poetry and art to combine. hugely influenced by haiku, hence the minima and also by basho and beefheart, hence the B. i would like to think that i had, like my great hero, captain beefheart, created, by merging various elements, something new. something a little different. unique even. i probably haven't but i am very proud of these works. here, then, are my arty farty bits.

Thursday

stealth












i've bottled me up in green
where the insects never crawl.
there are maggots in the machine,
lifeless.
robotic.
they slide and chew and feast on.
humdrum in the cold heart.
but the roots trail below me.
dark and strong and hallowed.
