from ‘Turquoise’ The she rinsed out of her she conjured, gated, drew back the remains of the gathered curtain hated in gold safeness, of infants, she dreamed and grew upon wider and wider, to a gleaming ball of orb-like beauty, the kind that generates in self-reflection torrid and unuseful. Witty wanderer a correctional medicine of tools and chopped wood he might one day find for her a partner, to kill by, the franked remains of her first ghost, still alive and thriving in the rose carriage of bones. |

MORRIS: A love poem: inspection, consideration,
violence, need. The minutiae of these affixes can only be considered by going
close-up with a magnifying glass made of words. The violence done to the
reader in this is the violence of an attention so close that the realities
skim your back (up). Verse that disabuses itself of a steady rhythm, whilst
clinging not mildly to a vague notion of orderly structure. 'I detect something strangely 1930’s Berlin about Turning, perhaps it’s the claustrophobic
melancholy of a degraded erotic cabaret under the pressure of creeping
despair: “every scent withdrawn into the bedchamber” […]There’s something
Munch-like about it which makes me nauseous.’ Reissued with Epilogue September 2004. |
