rising from the sea

Andy Cook. Six Flags Theme Park, New Orleans East, 2011

I like the song that says,
the sharper the image you cut the more you seem unreal; so sharp you could cut yourself, transparently idea.
You've never shown a trace of human frailty, 
No-one could ever catch you on the hop: 
Each post-modern take on the action would find you already, in principle, totally hot, all self-referential commentary and a marketing man's sense of talk shop.
Yes, but I never known what mean it, if they say, post-modern.
But be at the poet, I will follow him like a shark ship.


From the album Roaring Forties by Peter Hammill, 1994.
