Archive # 4 - Chemical Warfare

This piece appeared in my collection "Alien Shudder" (Inkpot Press) as well as the 1999 Forty Winks Press war-themed anthology "Zones" (ISBN: 095335752X). It reflects the genre (horror/SF) themes that flavoured much of my early work.

CHEMICAL WARFARE

Not people we are;
          we're like chemicals.
I take them
          and the face
          and heart.
I feel one of,
          like-shaped
in the world;
it was meant for us
          and I can taste it.
