okay i am serious

i went to sleep last night with no job, no car and nowhere to live
was woken up by a phone call for a full time position, called lady to tell her and she gave me that blue monster of a car that has been sitting out front forever, looked at an apartment and fell in love...then found out the rent was almost $100 less than what i was willing to spend in the first place

i'm trying to remember exactly what i did before falling asleep last night so i can replicate it tonight and fall asleep dreaming of winning the lotto.....

a sleepless ramble

i was a child in a dream
foolish with hunger
ignorant and bluish
brushed ponies manes, ate the flies as they fell free
real life was not so different
swallowed down you and your day old whispers
held your nude frame with rebellion more than passion
we had a hard time keeping faith while held up in my bed, swearing at the curtains unparted folds, like the space between teenage legs
its not right to speak of young girls like so...
but i was once so young in a dream or drugged out state or a drunken memory
i dont know
i just remember i stood around naked and brushed a horses hair

little bird

Was it the moon? Cut up like a dirty fingernail that twirled your wild thick hair until knots of silk plagued your moth eaten scalp?
I've missed unbinding those tangled wiry strands while laughing into your mouth, yet calling it a kiss. Open lipped and fresh, always with your pale slit eyes staring back without an obvious tenderness but with contemplative affection. Its these tiny indiscretions that i count on the scarce peaks and valleys of your flattened fists, [so much the same as a child pulling petals from a weed disguised as a daisy],
Rise
fall
Indecision strikes silent bells whose vibrations crawl up my legs, the long and the short, the nefarious nature of it taking residence in the hollows of conversation, Yet how female of me to assume anyone but myself can know when my speech breaks, when the words become less patient, when want exceeds need and each sentence becomes less about anything but feeling the movements of my jaw rubbing against your hands that reach and reach and reach but can never fully touch the smallest bits of myself that i keep forgetting to expose.
Those pale slit eyes never tire, they simply accept my naked viridity without any judgment
They break me down to color and shape, and i am left to wonder what the geometry of my face means
Again, a laugh, a kiss, your milk and bone cheeks, a second of thoughtless sleep ripped open with the abrupt awareness of your painfully beautiful perfumed youth
The prickling bells back down my thighs. I could live in you forever

sitting in a plush chair in my mothers driveway yelling at a man in a mock frueduan voice.
its dusk and probably spring, the man's white van is parked and smells like burnt rubber, i can here the tick tick ticking of oil hitting pavement

"do you feel ze penile envy?"
no
"ven you ride a bike dost it geev sexual gratification?"
the man makes a scissors cutting paper motion with his hand
"WORDS MY MAN, ANSWER WEES WORDS"
i spin around in the chair, launch myself forward and smile
the man looks terrified, its my mothers pastor, he knows im playing a game with him, more like testing him
he lifts his face and its twisted, he twitches his nose, i can't help but laugh
"vell? vhat eest your problem? i am not zee crazy one."
i break character and say maybe to him but more to myself, i am not the crazy one.
his hands, i am fixed on his hands, his gold wedding band looks tight and tired from years of being rubbed at. his fingers unlace and pleadingy stretch out toward me.
please, he says in a voice so sincere it stings with sarcasm, let me help you, i understand you are lost and need meaning
"i don't need meaning or god,"i interject, "i just need anxiety medication."
i quickly switch back and finger a smooth cherrywood pipe, puckering my lips into a half smile and squinting. this man of god sees all my demons, smells them, the distant scent of burnt hair,the sickly sweet cloak coiled and black.
"now meester tell me, why do you a man auf god wees to dig deep into my riddlers brain?" im screaming and crying but completely unaware. in the back of my mind i wonder when it started raining, why the dogs are howling from inside as though upset by thunder. i am the storm i realize.
"what is it you know? what divine means have you to heal my crooked mind?"
the pastor takes a step forward on the ball of his foot. i am the master, he is the beast.
i can heal you,
oh its that mocking voice again,
i am well versed in the body of christ, only a man with the knowledge of lord our savior can heal a hell ravaged mind like your own. all the doctors and pills are smoke and mirrors, shamans from the devil. i can save you, you are sick.
" save me like you saved my half dead mother." i feel somethinh rising
" save me with words of morality over rationality?"
im boiling over, grinding the flute of the pipe between my teeth, breathing in the smoke of my fathers ancient orange flapped tobacco, coughing and spitting like some bastardized depiction of a female devil.
"SAVE ME SAVE ME WITH YOUR DEATH MARCH HYMNS AND BURNING BUSH TONGUE.i can no longer talk, ze dockture haz left for zee night."
i rise from my chair with elongated movements, i may be crude, but i still i understand the grander of my dramatics. two steps toward the door, and its back, scraping at my esophagus, plucking my vocal chords. i stand, rigid and proud, tiny hammers through my dry mouth, cracking every tooth. "im rather angry aren't i?"
my fingers tips are numb, dissolving.
the man gets into his car and calls his wife to come clean me up.
but its clear now, to me at least. i am crazy, bat shit fucking insane, but i am also today tomorrow and every day after that. i am a holy shiver, rabid with truth. these men of god, they don't care for life or death, they don't care about personal triumph or tragedies no one does.

Felt less like my self, nails dug deep in sweetness of morning sounds, a tipping cup, fragile breath. our orange rine backs,hair knotted like delicate whips. Awake, we play adulterated bed games in our closed caves swept shut with unmatched curtains in our windowless home.

im pushing up babies and willow boughs from my destroyed gut. keeping my paramour at bay with a quick flash of nude ankles, sickly gray, the flesh, the bone. bottle cap necklace, we are to name our daughter after a drunken mans mistress

i was high
he stood and talked about politics, police bears, dancing side by side
i slip in and out
knowing
full well
what this might mean taking on
the doors swung wide
wider than usual
carousel horses, pontiacs and polloks running the races
gilded pony manes
this is a death note
an sos
my rambling is drug induced havoc
i cant write
my lips are completely numb
and if i had my way wed be fucking in the attic right now
ghost hands pouring over each cup
parking meter metronome
tick tick tick tocking
solemn rocking
my baby brothers chair
blue velvet
tiny rabbits
tomato patch that the gators over ran
so we picked up marshmallows tossed them and run like paper cranes

i dont write anymore
i sulk

ashes to ashes something splendid in the dish water, broken shutter i saved my half dead mother
