Kit Kelen #1393 - a machine which cannot tell the time


1393
a machine which cannot tell the time

today we are allergic to bread
wilt from the sun
all our own work

I’ve read in here
often we’ll catch fire

all pace is possible
sometimes turn to stone

I call them dags
at a sheep’s end
so come dreaming
and duck

large bird
from branches
a disentangle

has pages like the sky
turn to

high in the tops
have read leaves
where clouds took
call quits

there is no corner of it says to brighten or
but beyond the edges – day and night
in green of the unseen

the feeling for a pulse
nothing makes tick

have learnt not to listen

I have heard there is a machine
cannot tell the time

someone haunts these for the facts last lost
yet called away

the kenneled graph
bear bull

have read in here of somewhen once
rare and precious thing

remembered where I am so why

there is no corner of it tells

someone flies into and sting!
drive a truck through
no matter

will, won’t it?
not for quids!
takes as long as it likes
and with some urgency

the pyre and burn
it’s how hate goes

this one kills fascists too
