night streets and scars of light
                      scarves of light
moving subtle bustles  of shadowed light
carvings of royal light    robes of velvet light
                        make out expressionist doorways
strobes of light   fink and fit in protest        
coding behind enemy lines
captured light  fires colourful snakes about
in flaring curved science tubes                      

flagging the bartering night   flogging the
                                                  urban night
we've made apparition in honour of daylight
and out of the theatre fear        
               of our own bogged nature
  synthetic ghosts of light                   
              charge away ghosts
electronic noises   scare away
the horrifying lull of the dead                      
                (a dead we don't believe in)
         
twenty four seven behaviour
   to busy away the very spirits we have hungered
and to plot against
    all that unnecessary sleep business
