The sunshine trickles into a window
My eyes burn furiously
A sparrow makes a morning cup of tea
The flowers bend in the breeze.

Wrote this'un last night. Apologies for anyone offended by the language:
Why I f**king Do This
Mr Kenwood’s simulated tiger pantry is mainly here to distract you from
the seventeen cavities and muffins of felt being ravaged by the
cosmonauts, the hypocrites and the c**ting c**ting contra-realists of
no fixed supposedly.
Licked out clotted gastropods.
Kicked out knotted flies.
Mrs Holiday’s undiluted pencil-bound fist cracker is entirely here to
persuade you to quaff from the jar of pickled amnesia and spread your
mind out like a wardrobe ambulance king being savaged by the
communists, the dadaists and the c**ting c**ting contra-realists.
Kicked out clotted gastropods.
Licked out knotted flies.

I wrote this one for school. It was put in the school magazine so I guess it's alright.
THOUGH THE DARK, WE DANCE
WITH WET EYES,
HE DROPES A STONE INTO THE FADING LIGHT.
WHILE LETTING A TEAR FALL, FOR THE LONLEY CLEARING.
WHILE,WITH OUR EYES OF GRAY,
WE WATCH THE STONE SHATTER THE GLASS.
BUT TURN TO CLOSE UP AND WELCOME THE MIRRAGE.
AND THE FEW WITH THEIR THIRD EYE,
WILL LOOK UP PAST THE CLOUDS,
CATCH A FALLING STONE, SHARE A FALLING TEAR,
AND HIDE FROM ARMAGEDDON.

Routine
By Jen Williams
Going to one end back to the other
Going to one end back to the other
Going to one end back to the other
Too many lights on
Flip switch down
Did I do that right?
Flip switch up
Flip switch down
I think that is-I need to wash my hands
Go to bathroom and turn on hot water
Water lather rinse
Water lather rinse
Not enough soap
Water lather rinse
Water lather rinse
Dry hands
Dry sink
Fold towel
Unfold towel-looks wrong
Fold towel
Unfold towel-something looks wrong
Fold towel
Flip switch down
Dammit…

The birds are
starting to fly
The birds are starting to fly
Going up to East
In search of time;
And it’s a freakshow out there.
The solstice of winter is just around the corner;
So the birds awoken very late
That they have to go.
Just like we’ll come to the conclusion
That we can’t leave, but must stay.
The birds will die
As the solstice of winter
Forgives never and not.
They, the birds, fly Easy
Cause West became cold and unappealing
They, the birds, fly backwards.
Clouds hide the storm, the danger, the rhythm.
Birds take the road
To perdition and waste,
Knowing before
What lies ahead
And where it all ends.
It ends right in the moment
When you gain hope;
For you must not have hope
Just the attitude of a soul
Knowing before
How much time’s left
And what happens
d’après.
The birds are the soul of disorientation;
They have the sky
But don’t know
How to use it.
Wind is humid
Memory is lost.
The one bird making it
Across the sea of lies
Gets a final wish.
And my wish is to know the truth.
Meaning that the East I reached
Is as bitter
As the West I left.
So I say: … … …
So I conclude.
All work and no
play makes Jack a dull boy
All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy
All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy
All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy
All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy
All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy
All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy
Around 10 AM…
…my sister gave birth
to a baby sparrow.
We named him (him?) Simon.

Nerves, like ivy grow
Strangling pumpkin vines and other gourds
In the garden of life,
Preventing growth.

Eating Chinese in Bridgeton on Tuesday Nights

Steel wool
In your peanut chicken
Is not the kind of fiber
The doctor ordered
And the fifth cherry Pepsi
Did not kill the taste
Of bleach
Yet

It happened in such a manner that was unpredictable and disturbing, when my head exploded. An orgasm had occurred in my brain, a mental orgy within my nervous system. The force of a million suns socked with the chemical causing the senastion of love exploded. I fell on the ground, twitching in ecstacy. Was I going insane, or had I found god after all this relentless search? Then my head exploded, lobbing it off like a soviet missle headed towards another universe. I miracuoulsy maintained my nervous system, and I could see through the bloody mess a small infant emerged, entering our universe.
Oh well, I'm still alive.
Not really a poem, but something I though I'd share. Pretty Dada eh?

Silence, solitude and sequencing
I
As you open the book, light gets revealed under the most fake impression that you can actually see it there goes the outdoor contact and the vital knowledge from which, in sleep, you live to tell the story. One decreptive and sometimes in colors that don't fit with what you're wearing and sometimes one that resembles a future long passed and a wish long killed. Desperate soldiers immortalize the frame and clear out any suspicions, to come in advantage. You can't read the signs therefore you ask someone else to give you the grave detail. Nobody? Where is that joy of telling your clueless thought? Go, and with that, don't go. Comfort is a waste, the rich taste is a benefic slough. Die and close win and stop wanting humanity's close pestilential hope. Piano strings pinched, pitched, patched. The more you know the better you realize.
With big letters, lies written "Drescalusa, Menecaduca, Isar" By the melted face man. The author hums the indescribable.
Stop at the flashlight signal and go hysterical over the cause of waiting doom's syllabified connection. Up front, the rusty train; down below, Eleusys. God, the fearsome flaw, broke the spell of can-made Babel-isle, making thralls curios and imposing new definitions and interpretations of the word, so simple, can each day by each person in a way just for that person meant to be. Obliged, I can't communicate with my girl, close spouse, future victim, about the faceless demon that appears on the bedroom walls saying ka-boo. I fear you, but not like that. Let's watch it. Then we'll see what's to be done.
Enthusiastic.
The world is made out of fixed ideas and improvised emotion, reaching a sensible chord only when taken too seriously by the persons without anything to complain about. With a short, simple poem you get what you want or do even more. Thus in my celebrated poem I say I don't live among humans at which comes a voice, a response saying offuscated Don't be silly, you do live among humans at which I defend my idea what idea, my belief! saying No, I don't at which, once more Yes, you do! at which No, I don't!! the poem struck gold being only considered too frightening for the common taste. Not everybody gets the miraculous gift of comprehension. Not everybody loves another of his own, like asked.
Open door Enter room Close curtains Lie down Stop breathing You're safe.
I just know something wrong's going to happen, but I get asked to keep my voice down, in face I get rudely advised to shut my mouth and to drive safely across the bridge whose end melts the horizon. The thing I fear is that somebody, anybody will be there, living its life in a normal way, at the bridge's end, up in that desert-town- strangled-paw. That can only, and for surely, mean that I have to socialize and to accept that one waiting entity. Bright clear...
The marche funebre tone is universal.
Staying I develope qualities; so a dog shows up and clearly says, moving lips, articularing sound: hi, got bone? AH!
