cam’s gams
recently husband #3 spent time in 2 CAT scan + 2 MRI machines
calm and metastatic ? they’re scanning his bodyelectric 💥 but they
cannot locate his mind
a frigid nurse told me it is undetectable Aprill but i already know that
you see husband #3 lives mostly on the Magic Mountain with Hansy Castorp
how appropriate for a man(n) whose bricks+mortar home is Buddenbrooks
Cam loves Thomas Mann +has lived a Mannian life simple +committed without
clutching at the complexities of reality existing on his own plane Calling Cam!
Calling Cam! +in his absence i am at the mall
i actually cried when i read the last page of The Magic Mountain ..and so, in the
tumult, in the rain, in the dusk, he disappears from sight..Farewell Hans Castorp,
life’s faithful problem child..
And thru the recent horrors of his bodycavity search he remained friendly+doglike
accepting the yoke of the Reap with equanimity the only person i know who doesn’t
need to meditate he is the meditation
his mantra fore! pancakes bakeries trees i currently cannot see the forest
lost in the bowels of Sinai where an old brother searches endlessly for my carcass
desiccate +glowing but i am a hardcore troubadour leave no trace ape
i sing the body scan
the godless tube..
+the metastatic drummer
can kiss my skinny white ass

..has anyone supposed it lucky to be born? i hasten to inform him or her
it is just as lucky to die..i am not contained between my hat and boots..
what do you think has become of the young and old men ..of the women
and children? ..they are alive and well somewhere the smallest sprout shows
there is really NO DEATH.. Walt Whitman Leaves of Grass 1855
Spring 2024 ..i’m sick of love..💔
