Skunk

one deep-throated whiff

is sometimes sufficient

to jar you

to awaken you

from this day-glo-

brought-to-you-by-existence

it’s the unseen

that lies just below the surface

which really matters

which needs to be evoked

which stirs us from the obvious

from the deadening predictability

of existence

just one whiff can sometimes

cause a splintering of your world

of your ego-

of your iron lung of truth.

This new chapbook is a cynical and funny account of life, sexuality, love, violence, and motorbikes. It is often raw and exhilarating, the language well-tooled and crafted. David McLean (Autoerotic Elegies)
