CITY OF WIRES
The city of wires’ liars promulgate paradox and myth in equal measure,
Treasure ephemera frozen in time like lime in geological stratas.
Eras juxtaposed with icons’ eyes regarding their fate, indifference and oblivion.
The presence of spheres queers the pitch-black background found among suggested ruins that emerge from the vestiges of a disposable age.
Rage—rigid, poised aloft plastic pen shafts—daft’s how you feel, like an embarrassed eel next to a meal of acrylic blobs pictures of yobs interrupt and link, then sink between glass, arse and metal, which eventually settle with the unease of a drunken seasickness sufferer.
Adherents to PVA medium hear ads through wires connected to beads, feeds fed to wheels representing deals of a circular nature.
Human nature—exaggeratedly echoed in absurdist architecture, reflecting the futuristic chaos born out of contemporary consumerism.
Towers’ powers shrink and captivate simultaneously along pools of colour on wood you should respect, like trees from which it comes.
Glass, brass and toys, intricately assembled like ploys, neighbouring plastic regions legions of shadows disturb.
The consistently visible function is dysfunction, anarchic equilibrium unmolested by equity or Librium, while narcolepsy inducing mechanisms vie with stimulant incitement units in surreal seascapes drowning ambiguous amphibians.
Encompassing compasses, the city yet lacks direction, but light—direct—shone upon the darkest places and moments, making momentous both the minimal and minutiae.
My ‘newt’ eye sees the scheme of things the city brings,
Things I forgot, relived or dreamed.
I built the city while I slept and when I woke I laughed and screamed.
