Death Dressed In A Nixon Mask
Hunting is hard when they’ve deprived me of mah nasal passages, ain’t that a hoot and a half for my hooter. Cunting is card when they’ve deprived me of mah nasal passages, ain’t that a coot and a calf for my cooter.
there, there, pamplemousse. you should feel better as the day progresses, as the code grows easier to crack by the daylight that drowns itself daily in the windowsill. there will be days when the cat splashes in the brown and grey of the windowsill’s excretions, other days when the dust sparkles and catches your eye in the imaginary yellow (for it’s not truly yellow, is it, pamplemousse, is it? it’s yellow only in your fruity french coloring books). i feel as though i’ve been not born but shat out of that orifice, the window. the hardwood of the sill’s been completely coated with dust, or dandruff. let’s not celebrate it but eat it, so there’s no evidence left. ever.
and it’s not made of sandalwood, or beech, or maple, or cherry, or oak, or varnished with the sputum of the baby, but christened with a bottle of vinegar and loved only by the sad inhabitants of the hospice for the aged and demented who can no longer remember their names or any names; they are so pure. they are not made of sandalwood, or beech, or maple, or cherry, or oak, or varnished with the sputum of the baby, but culled from death’s well. death is dressed in a nixon mask.

H Is Not The Color Of Textual Representation
like a lick of lake, lord and lady love lurching linguists, plumb plumb plumb plumb plumb plumb plumb plumb
my lover, my lover, loquaciously lilted:
“though you cry, you’ve ‘only been jilted
remember, retain retiring recording,”
so quoth i to her, “why won’t you stop whoring?”
she sobbed to her napkin, she did testify,
it was not her fault but guilty was i
i sat on the divan, thus did i recline
and exploded in fury, nine nine nine nine
forty and three, or twenty and eight
sixty, sixty, sixty for freight
nine nine nine nine saved time a stitch
so i shot her head, the ungrateful bitch.

Not Getting To Know
so this, and this only: i am not here. i am not at this keyboard, i am not in this monitor, i am not a digital reflection of the cool reality that’s been hawked by that screaming hyperlin vendor. i’m not even in the corporeal elements of meness that you’d look at and help to scream a warning for the minors as a landslide of white noise comes sloughing off the five-headed beast of south dakota. i don’t even know why Elsie Shawn wants me to buy viagra. suppose i do, and then naturally some time later they die, and the money has been spent. where was the money, all along? it’s like a rubber ball under a nutshell, you know where it is in between but you don’t know where it is at the beginning and end, really.
you see the ball. but here’s the kicker: the certainty that yes, the ball is there, is it there? when the nutshells are dancing, you’re left on the precipice of suspension of disbelief, like there was a ball at all. there wasn’t a ball. it’s not even red pigment on a hallucinatory dish. there simply was nothing there, ever, in physical presence. teddy told me that the ball was real, but my mind was not, and i counter the ball is as unreal as my mind can make it. so suppose. just suppose N’gwala Unyole was to recieve my million-dollars in his bank account. play pretend i bludgeoned the person sitting to my left to death with my bare fists, stomping on the face until there was a good coating of blood and saliva on my sneakers. it is just as real as me doing it, except you aren’t and i didn’t. so where did the blood and saliva come from?
have you ever noticed that q and p are a discontented couple? always lying with their little backs to one another. they’ll never be married, for of what use is a word with them together? who would read it? even in phraseology, there’ll always be that space between them in pop quizzes, sharp quills and shrimp quesadillas. they’ll look at each other from a distance blankly, admiring one another’s curves. mind your p’s and q’s, for they won’t do the same.
