Gung Ho at The Zeitgeist

Gung Ho at The Zeitgeist

I like the photo that you flung
like an aerodynamic frisbee
through the glow of cyber electrons.
It screams of Ultravox and wild
gypsophila in Grantchester Meadows.

Kids careening drunk through street
lit metal roads, howling like rabid dogs
lost in the brain fog of a 2am dead
zone, after shooting our lot over tables
doused in fire water and ash.
We didn’t know it then, but the river
was always sliding away unseen;
whispering Goodnight Vienna.
