History

Carol D’Souza

That sail on the horizon was always

going to be a shroud, o good people

The emperor in a further coup

managed to trade his clothes

 

Follow the Ms

Maluku, Manchester, Massachusetts

Muting mechanistic metaphysics

More and more and more

 

The high of the poppy

strained into the tea

with a side of spices

 

What the body knew escaped

Descartes. Like Linnaeus after him

Binary Binomial Brothers

Building the blocks

 

MEANING meaning more than money

Magic no longer doing the trick

 

Power is in the pipelines now

but the patterns peek

through the palimpsest

 

Portents
