Wait. What?

When he isn't talking your ear off about existentialism, pro-wrestling and the incredibly interesting things that happen in his comparatively mundane life, Dan occasionally writes the poetry he mentions so often. Here it is.

Junkbox Collaboration


Drawn down and further ever on you fell like deadweight
and sank way below most objects of the same shape
lost like a ship, beyond the great cape

BEYOND EARTH+SKY
there's a man with a shotgun, perched, waiting
trying to break out of Nietchze's Moustache
with wire cutters, semtex and an ounce of hash (for the nerves)

The nerves he'd suffered with since the day his father beat that dog without warning then had several helpings at dinner.
But nerves or not, what else could he do? Desperation would see him through.

BETWEEN THE THORNS AND TIME WAVY OR GREY
you can hear the silent screams of
a poem that has lost its muse

Dan, Richard, James, James, Kelly & Hugh
