—after Dave Holland’s Mental Images

Blued glued words
formed articulation
a written facet among a sky-falling’s
treatment, hallucinatory vertigo
spin      spin      spinning
spanning spectrum of collaged
intercepting rhythms.  Jailed
within a steel disposition founded
by decomposition wishes
hankered by ulterior devotion to
explained and understanding fairness,
life now serial, reinvented accidents.
