Billy Graham
it’s coming under the door
before everything out there freezes
not like slaters with all those busy feet
but more streamlined and confident
and flat and wide
like a mat of slug
expanding into the kitchen
it peels open horizontally like a zip
the top lip curling up and out with those hairy teeth
and then the flouros go on at the back of its ten foot throat
and out steps Billy Graham in an overcoat
King James Bible in his hand
Hullo he says
I’m Billy Graham
the damn thing’s phlegm all over him
Philip White
