OVERBURDEN (Limited Edition)

from Bedrock Press

Overburden is bitumen reverie: we kill to be Canadian while the ITCCS and Gitmo Death Poem leave us sweat soaked in bed, accidents are inevitable and school could be about inquiry rather than mind-numbing but we want to sip Iced Capps while ice caps melt undisturbed, amputate the limb to save the soul but the masks we wear are not our own, we are all just so much data, immortal numbers stocked away bombing Afghanistan from the grave, one foot in one on an IED, 10 000 years and still no utopia overburden is life taken but not returned.
