Midnight City.

  Walking guardian

with child
Saunter down a neon lit avenue
Making smoke glazed vacant eyes
Dripping tears on quivering lips

trying to speak
Caressing voltaic hazy

chromium wastelands

Little feet pressed

trying not to walk slowly
On a purple bleached pavement
Are marched along faster.
~: ~: ~: ~: ~: ~: ~: ~: ~: ~~: ~: ~: ~: ~: ~: ~: ~: ~: ~
Distant siren calls across parameter
Lead exhaust slow putrid drip
Shroud silenced police car reverses
Hidden panther

Gorilla

motionless
Waiting.
~: ~: ~: ~: ~: ~: ~: ~: ~: ~: ~: ~: ~: ~: ~: ~: ~: ~: ~~
Stooped forward on skier arms
Drunk abusive

Staggers along


Acting out some zombie alien lunatic
With half blind homing pigeon

Pickled brain
Tries to grunt a way home


Only to collapse at his door
Oblivious to some stray dog
Who urinates over his back.
~: ~: ~: ~: ~: ~: ~: ~: ~: ~: ~: ~: ~: ~: ~: ~: ~
Chewing heavily on menthol gum
Three girls wait impatiently at a corner
Skin tight skirts grip their thighs
Like fresh Howschwitz lampshades.

~
Distant illuminated patrol car nears
As it passes menthol gum travels at high velocity
And spatters the patrol car windscreen.
~: ~: ~: ~: ~: ~: ~: ~: ~: ~: ~: ~: ~: ~: ~: ~: ~: ~: ~: ~: ~: ~
Helicopters circle less popular areas
Pumping ray gun penetrating lights-
Searching alley and hedge row
For warm glowing dead owl criminals
Who snake about on their bellies
Until police dogs slowly eat them away.
~: ~: ~: ~: ~: ~: ~: ~: ~: ~: ~: ~: ~: ~: ~: ~: ~: ~: ~: ~: ~
On an electric powered push bike
Cruising slowly down a duel carriage way
A shift worker travelling home
After inserting 200,000 silicon chips
Into sonic computer equipment-
Is pulled by a patrol car and cautioned
For driving to slow.
~: ~: ~: ~: ~: ~: ~: ~: ~: ~: ~: ~: ~: ~: ~: ~: ~: ~
As midnight ends and day begins
With trembling feet perched high
Birds rejoice on a daytime moon
On how we do things in this dark time
Smiling wide at our human kind
Longing for another midnight hour.
