light observation

when will I own an internet fridge
an internet fridge, an internet fridge
my television tells me to buy one
one, one, one, one

the little dog barks outside in the wind
the little girl sits in her room alone
sticks scratch at the window pane
the computer is listening in

a motorcycle wants an internet fridge
dementia village 2070 internet fridge

a second dog barks in the night
the flue flap knocks in the wind
the computer is listening in

if only I owned an internet fridge

pages turn in the other room
the television news comes on
on, on, on, on,

_ wants me to own an internet fridge

_ knows what I am writing
_ is publishing this
_ predicts what I want to know
_ doesn't know what I am listening to
_ knows where I live

post-breakfast composition

I used not to like Garfield or the Garfield
Cameron Spencer's sister drew
her Odie pictures smelled
but I don't mind Garfield now
This morning over reheated porridge I read Slothilda
which is just reheated Garfield jokes
reprinted from a blog
about sitting at a computer
After breakfast I put oversocks over my socks
and sat at a computer
Worse than blogs turned books
are comic book novelizations
for example those based on Bone and Hilda
the smell of the prose
possibly arises from false intentions
Last night Patrick's brother who doesn't exist
was teaching me how to draw from life
We arranged avocadoes
that I drew as a series of stacked faces
surrounded by clouds outlined with lead pencil
When I woke I felt strongly suspicious about yesterday afternoon
countered by the double rainbow
I drove as far as I could towards
without going further than we needed to to get home
The green cup in this photo is filled with water from last night

relayed minutes

they knew it was going to be a bunfight
a guy in a suit introduced himself
this is my name I'm from the department
that's my role
the treasurer said stick to the agenda
well what's the first item
two minutes of complete mayhem
where there's no minutes
how about we skip to the voting
the president didn't show up
the vice-president read this huge speech
there was a bunfight about that
is this really the place for this kind of thing
said someone from the crowd
associated with no one
the secretary circulated an email
27 complaints about the school
the guy stood up and said no you can't
read a summary
without their permission
and the secretary threw a tantrum
and said well I resign
the other ones stomped out of the room
they had created a website
for parents to add their complaints
and its name changed during the meeting
to parents auxiliary

watch out for ingredients such as coconut oil or palm oil – often in cluster-type cereals"
