BROOK ANDREW

[46]

NO PASARA…

My experience of life is like looking through glasses that deconstruct.
Looking for a point of distortion: when a car is not a car; when a tree should be there.
Our connections to an object or event – our reactions.

1.

Inside you it travels
Meandering stream

Outside you it devours
The ocean

Touching the screams
No more humanity
All below, sweet beds of boils


2.

Can you become darker in the flames?
Licking your skin


3.

Inside… licking your wounds


4.

Above the shadow
Peering the corner
Allowing the substance

Seeping alone

Wobbling confusion – jumping.
Tedious I know – special effects.

Culpable driving
Surviving


5.

Beware the ventriloquist




6.

Out in the type

Sunk in the type

Between the type

Antelope the type




7.

Forgive the threat
For it is only in your enemies mind
