hospital like, from the grave to the cupboard,

they take a moment

to take us all in,

and down a peg.

fair trade, fair sleep,

fair maidens using curve and bend,

for clinical ends - be patient,

you time will come - interventions,

let it happen,

we dream about it:

eating, welding, driving sheep,

we foam about it,

commit crime for the dark fit,

do everything for that loving embrace,

that bursts, dilutes

is gone, digested.
