Poetry from Mark Young

Paging Darwin

An internal investigation into
the goanna’s supply chain

reveals that the widely-held
belief that its hierarchy of IT-

related capabilities functions
using three dimensions of inte-

gration is not only wrong but it is,
overall, a far less efficient reptile

than the similarly-named but un-
related inhabitants of Central &

South America plus some isolated
islands off the coast of Ecuador.

Through the eyes

The council were looking both
to compensate & to provide
the government with evidence

that their project could be made
legitimate & would make some-
body a lot of money. None of it

was real. That seemed obvious
to me & I was only eight years
old. No-one else seemed to notice.

An existing location can no longer be displayed

A clear understanding of electrolyte
characteristics within the existing
student population, with the fragment

sizes generated by current DNA & capable
of producing next-generation residential
expansion, has been the focus of urban

planners seeking to identify a single
source of truth that includes check in/check
out capabilities & specialist spare parts.

Rotation

Choosing to walk this way
though other paths are easier.
In with the old, even if the
futures market seems to pre-
dict that genetically modified
crops are the way to grow.

But where will the money come
from? For the poor especially
it does not grow on trees that
do not grow. Landscapes of
drought or flood, playing fields

where insurgents surge to preach
religious intolerance. Nothing
gets through. A single variant
good – if that’s the term – for a
single season since new seeds need
to be bought to plant another crop.

Stressed & lethargic? An

exegesis of this difficult

subject is illuminating—the

function of the image as some-

thing that depicts not through

reproduction but through a

process of dismantling. Some-

times the only option is to

assess the relevance of each

rule in a reference resolution

system to eliminate all extremes

of elaboration. Sites rise to the

surface. Supplemental queries

seem to have a limited lifetime.

more things happening

We have deleted a whole

collection of scenes in which

we have either half-closed eyes

or a strange grimace. But even

with the eyes fully closed we

still see light — it’s a form

of phosphene induced by

movement or sound. Put your

hand or a hat or another object

close to the camera & the audi-

tory input to your ears changes

dynamically, induces a plasticity

in the brain. Causes that strange

grimace: which we later delete.

Acetone

I am bald. Bald of hair, bald of clothes, bald of parents, bald of love, &, worst of all, I am bald of voles. I am interested only in the club t-shirt & bumper sticker.

Earlier this year at a business dinner I enjoyed my favourite eland steak. Beautiful, purple/red color. The taste is big & that specific note of lavender in the background just fills the mouth. Hints of oak, with fruity aromas & solid overtones of smoky but not dominating leather. 

No one around here seems to carry it. That wildness when young is thought to be a problem. As it ages, though, the roughness & acetone notes are swept away. But the aftertaste lingers, long & pleasant, vanilla notes & bags of fruit. I miss the “naughty boy” touch, so full of body that my arm hairs rise!

a mechanistic understanding of the marsh plant

The website has not worked as well

as it could. The Yin & Yang broke

down into their Five Elements, but

half of the combinations were dis-

allowed. Nothing can be achieved

without interaction; so, to compensate,

we play a game from your distant

past. Those dominant themes of dark

& darker pose a much more com-

plicated problem than improving

the telemetry used to track the

spring migration of female pintail

ducks that winter south of the Equator.

at the new workplace

 

We rack up badges the old fashioned

way. Have a pair of tickets to give to

a democratic organization in Paris. The

impact of leadership on followers is

dependent on the number of divisions

& potentially conflictual splinter groups.

If you asked me to name my favorite

scents, I would refer you to geographic

 

distribution information provided by

Head Office in Germany. How a new

generator might bring either order or

chaos but that, due to forces of nature, a

family vacation to the borders of the dead

zone will be beneficial for yoga asanas.

Poetry from Mark Young

technological innovation

 

The southwest corner of Stanley

Street East may be a result of

natural causes or possibly

engineered by a spiral laser

beam. Human happiness is so

elusive, which is why composting

bins are available for download

in PDF-format. It’s very easy &

 

tempting for a horse to lean on

the bit if they want to go slower.

There could be a series set a-

round it, or a gym that preached

sermons on each rep. People suck,

passive aggressive all day long.

 

Each bowl

 

The container is double-layered.

How much time should be allowed

for it to fester can often be deduced

from the interplay between the two

materials. Soon we will be offering

small pieces of really old ships. Let’s

see if that does the trick. We have relo-

cated to a place just outside the village,

 

hoping we can find a cheap place to

rent, away from the nightclubs but

still have close by everything needed

to guarantee a continuous source of

entertainment. The evenings are

often given over to passion & prayer.

 

 

Leaving behind your familiar house

 

Winter on the mainland can

be an enormously stressful

time. Antelopes stand on their

hind legs to reach the acacia

leaves, hoping to break the Yin

or Yang down into its essential

five elements. Freud hid his work

from Jung at first, considered it

 

a difficult & painful topic, some-

thing he wasn’t comfortable

talking about to his mother. In-

stead offered up a compilation

of therapy tips & techniques

gleaned from 17 years training.

 

 

Even if they segue into

 

A downside of having pro-

fessional tuition is that no one

really needs it unless they’re al-

ready totally screwed. I have

documented my life, embellished

it, added enough physical activity

for it to be presented as an alter-

native soundtrack for the darkest

 

political mystery. Have also sought

out constructs that are not in com-

mon use or constrained by webdate.

Odd tools. The occasional random

phrase. The stains were cleaned up

very quickly. No ransom was paid.

 

Mark Young’s most recent book is The perfume of the abyss, from Moria Books, the fourth standalone collection in his — so far — 400-poem Series Magritte.

Poetry from Mark Young

This / isolation is / subsequently followed by

 

Galleries are no longer

free which is a drain on

spatial navigation. What

kind of aggressive tech-

niques are used to ensure

they did not die in vain?

I have antiquated some

of the bulk purchasing for

 

schools — let’s see if that

does the trick. You can tell

the love hotels by their

bright-lit neon signs with

funny names. It’s a favorable

plan for natural regeneration.

 

 

decidedly unglamorous

 

I load webrat & machinist. This
newer work seems cheapened.
Has changed color to an impure
red. Had I been here, I would
have been stoned with insertive
knockers & small advertisements
that are called namako, or sea
mice. Networks are lacking. An

allergy may be the cause. The state
of the sewage disposal system is a
physical reminder of their strong
connection to the alcohol industry.
Magnetic resonance imaging is used
as the theme of the anime series.

 

 

trailed off on both sides of the market

 

Not through reproduction but by a

process of supplemental queries,

the House has signed off on

a $11.9 billion project to enable

a series of intellectual activities

based on “bricolage.” The hypo-

thesis is that they will function

as a playground in which scien-

 

tists can mull over their under-

standing of difficult subjects, taking

their attention away from another

bill providing a $106.5 billion pack-

age for war matériel that is already

earmarked for Senate approval.

 

Are you stressed and lethargic? Caught

inside a perfectly rectangular block?

Under no obligation to obey the laws

of ethics or morality? Born with no

innate or built-in mental content?

Seem to have a limited lifetime? Refer

to landscaping in ways that do not

require supplemental irrigation? Fill

 

the Incense Cup with rice chaff ash

& do not compact? Talk of crystal

chandeliers in a fundamentally diff-

erent way? Use an opposition such

as “nature/culture” as a tool while not

accepting it as philosophical truth?

 

If any response is positive, use the Phase One plan

Poetry from Mark Young

the benefits of technology

 

Determined to honor the

father she never knew, a

polaron & a soliton lattice —

sort of the homely under-

dogs of the whale world —

were included as special

cases. So that the dangers

of non-lethal blast waves

 

on the same or the following

day wouldn’t affect any

other relevant products, she

added a silly dance track —

directed toward a retirement

investment in the stock market—

that had finally gotten some

traction earlier in the year.

 

drowning calling

 

a knife all blade

an endless mystery

an unheard-of incident

not months but moments

 

can by & far more

end up melancholy

& fatalistic can retrain

become guest judges

 

to become a part of

our reality shows

which have become

a part of our reality

 

& deepen the mystery

a kind of wild justice

 

a high end sports drink

 

Assiduity is a core dimension

of appropriate intervention, en-

courages her to be either an

anonymous maker of perfect

pianos or the force & inspiration

behind the carbs & electrolytes

of a natural hair color. This

discipline stems from the appli-

 

cation of theological biology,

which, even without its spiritual

leader, promotes an inflexible

dogma that favors totalitarian rule

& the need to perform repeated

rotations around arbitrary points.
