Shopping for sunshine

 The world out there teeth and naked
armed with machine zero sums
break out of the shield for gains sake
all vulnerable and numb

Standing afront the sun
awaiting trial like an accused in denial
yet the sun doesn't speak and predictably
it just shines like old boy said

The world out there is an oversized supermarket
overfilled trolley with mouths that seem to complain
as the small wheels creek down those washed aisles
zero sum machines where you can stick your hand in

if you don't open your hand your wrist stays trapped
That claw reaching down open like trolley mouth
all legendary teeth and naked gums
the cigarette and gum could marry

blinding sun still coming down
OR from my world shooting up
The world so below in the mind
a choking jury waiting for the sun

the old boy shines out there smile hammering away
through a few trillion pounds of harsh powder karma
to move those creaky wheels with this skull
roads to thought and roads to feeling

as you put your fifty cent piece into the machine
glee dripping from those curled ears
the throat dries with washing in the sun
as it gets hung out there jury confusion

The client is so lost in a universe of unfulfilled desires
those seductive images rolling around on giant screens as he stands naked afore the light
quase worship yet full of want not unlike an unfed child
One that raises the solar flare against the shadow of the cattle
