Glass Beach

Waves gently crash 
in distant froths salty brine 
on drawback sand. 

Beach pebbles rattle 
smooth curved and worn 
upon shoreline wash. 

People gossip. 
saunter back to vans 
full of sandy hope 

and scratched legs 
with brush off hands 
on sunburn red. 

Fish swim batter fat 
to be served with chips 
and curry pot sauce. 

An alcoholic sea 
laps upon a beach 
of glass broken bottles.

The Demise Of Spiderman And The Flygirl

From between moving clouds 
out of blue sky way beyond 
the sun shines through temperamentally 
down into our pensive atmosphere. 

Onto a capitalistic spider 
as he spins his business web 
from the branches of the systems tree. 

On a poor fly trapped 
in the bondage of regulations 
and eaten up in her own sexuality. 

But subversive winds of change 
blows through the branches 
destroying the spiders web of gain. 

Then crying rain comes roaring down 
and the spider is washed up; 
down into a muddy drain.
