On The Hole

 

On The Hole


I’ve seen the future.

It’s an old hole

at the centre of an old record,

because there are none broken

anymore.

Scratched, chewed,

overplayed and overused.

Warped. Like an old wooden door

that always ends up here,

where you will not walk through

anymore.

Put wood in your hole

because this entrenched brown rat

will gnaw, will chew

insides up like that as rattle bones

of a cutter’s hold

that maiden-voyaged

years ago

with shellac groan and does not put in

anymore.
