Visions
Ben Cottrell
To the neck of the wood
The consuming eye!
Lumps of heaven and the cartwheel night
Petal faced star, liquefying sun, valley gorge and river gush
Spectral hair, yearning ghost of chance
Molten coin in a darling monster loop
The sunflower hour, falling apart, stands up, barrels about
Grain of stars, hair on end, laughing, suffering
Mouth, eye, breast, tumbling
Tricorn brim, rustic nerve, green fur corner, zig zag curve
Gluey dagger in the soft phantasma
Colour ritual and wayward flower
Oh vampiric charms!
The carriage cock crows, the moon a milky scythe
Soaked, dusk spitting, whipped by the wind
Ropey lunar hoop, lashed to the mist
Saintly circle´s song to the ecstasies of the wood
Sun drunk lord cut a dizzy tree
Column of chops. Hairy heaven. One, two, and three
Tangled green dream, wooden flow, pile ´o´stones, blushing steam
Lusty mad Oak! Spells are to be broken!
Sunlight cracks like a flower, guts hanging in a stone circle grin
Flames seek the dry wood
Mother Nature, chartreuse heart, splash toxic, Earth and Pop!
To the applause of magenta hooves……
