"It's about words, and words are all I have…"

do u belive in magic?

what are the central images of your life?  how do these define you?

your unique character  person  being  calling  identity?

 

fields rolling by   farms   cows   trees  endless green   horses

they shoot ’em dont they?  turquoise fabric on couch  shot thru

with threads of silver  dog fur  your parent’s bodies  your father’s

watch in the dark   glowing green  your mother’s long hair being

brushed out  100 strokes lashes  for marrying  for security

what’s love got to do with it?

 

 

didn’t love him until much much later  much   mother’s dresses

accessories  jewellery  prosthetic limb  dressed to kill suburban

dumbdumbs  rounders  grifters  a swimming pool’s turquoise water

your 1st ocean   u still dream of having one   all your own

 

 

not watching neighbour children swim  through barbed-wire fence  keep

the riffraff out   get off my property   a girl named Nelly  sneered   so you

pushed her  into the sandbox  where dead frogs squishstank  now mother

of 3   richest family in Canada    croakcroak

 

 

but i also saw magic fer chrissakes!  the moon  stars  ghosts

a mobster  with a poodle named Mike    midnight snow

a toothless bank robber  at breakfast   rainbows  glittersparkle

transformed ugly sub urban human tract   into PurdonOz

maudlin i know   how ’bout the entrails of a dead gofer?

all shinyjelly +moist

 

 

these images precursors to  screaming cancer patients  at 17   emaciated bestie

of mother’s  in a leopardskin robe deathbed scene   stitches   catheter bags

okay i’ll stop   i likely have your attention

 

today sparks flew from a construction site 💥 incinerated husband #3 💥 whose

ashes floated West    possibly saving him from another brainsaladsurgery

..life is your project; there is nothing to tell you what it’s all about.. it’s all

up to you, each individual alone..there is neither God nor Godot to wait for..

build the project of your life with your own heroic hands..
