  • Sickened and housed street death's burned
    Blacked, lived, compelled and cold
    Closed down and swallowed formed and regained
    Blacked, curt, gloat and discerned

    Shot from shot
    The androgyny fails
    Odalisque by Ingres
    Yet your bones for sale
    Pornographic, this is pornographic
    Pornographic

    Expertly clothed amazed and perturbed
    Assumed annoyed and ceased
    Bow down together
    Agonised and locked
    Mixed, sealed and received Writer/s: JAMES BRADFIELD, NICHOLAS JONES, RICHARD EDWARDS, SEAN MOORE
