Portland. Transgender woman. Likes scones.
What do you want me to do about it? You're acting like, like we can't do anything about this, Nandu. Like you're, I mean you're acting like, this is my fault, here. What was I supposed to do? I mean, I had no way of knowing, man. Oh **** might have to shok this guy who's ****** little kids -- wait a sec, better not say anything about ReFresh water! I mean, what the **** I am blaming you because that was the worst joke I've heard. In how long, ever? In a long time. Look, I'm sorry, okay? I'm sorry. But this is not my fault. We should fight this. They're doing what they're doing. If you do something like this again, I'm firing you. You're not gonna fire me. How do you know that? You're not gonna fire me because, people make mistakes. And you know that.

Official Complaint, Official Corrective Action
I look out at the light red filling in my eyes with Indica rising I look like I Am a textbook stoner preparing for the test by reading all the answers there is no question left except the meaning of life which I might well express except again, I thought up another good question again I realize that I don't know for sure where my pipe is. It's about this big. Like between the size of an index finger and a ***** I know that's vague because I didn't specify yours or mine --But my ***** is twenty inches long and a device that long would probably be a water pipe. (I don't want to get arrested) Obama's listening, oh and I don't own one, oh seriously, did you see where I put that ******* thing?

Summer Shudder: "No Cash Monday"
My jean zipper coming down, all for the eager hand and mouth of a dark woman walking the night. Nothing heard and nothing seen could pry us from our silent, carnal screams or move us from the asphalt. I thought it was all over as we split, but I left with a number left for me, by her fingers on my cell phone screen, oh, I thought it was all over and done.

I fall along with your plans I fall along with your ward I fall along with your walls I wonder was there ever connection to sever cross this collective expanse of years? Or was there no love with to begin your hallowed bond? Hallowed, hallowed Devil, my brother, will you permit room to breathe? Oh, I so wish you'd leave no room for Jesus.

Summer Shudder: "Creak in the Floorboards/Master's House"
Never mind the headache, ma'am, I got no time for your wishin that you had another couple hours sweaty spoonin with me These days I got high time racing like underline all the while the future words seem as if they're repeating much slower or bleeding white into the rest of the page I gotta go ta work Never mind the simple kiss, the stranger smile, the holy art. Never mind the needful hand, I hear all the words that you're speaking and I've spent years making them not cut into me.

Life tends to kick you quickest when you're down Like the little pithy scratch of jealousy On your neck as you see the signs When your girlfriend's stale eyes Begin to wander Begin to wander too specifically For your personal Comfort

Summer Shudder: Hanging With Smokers
Again, the path of pink, crystalline, digital highway twirling its corkscrew all around, close, as if it were my eyes themselves, the only thing to see for miles and miles, blistering by at a breakneck pace and straight through me. There's only sweat and the highway. The days are long and the nights are not at all. Just the pink on black for miles and miles. When, where will I be when the road ends? I know what I'll be doing, that's for sure.

Somewhere, USA, 2336
This woman of blonde locks slim body and perky ******* acne and ribcage and vertebrae she gives me that look drawn smile with teeth bared heaving tummy and deep stare into my eyes like, "Come on." Like a run-on sentence I'll make her come on my face all night and all day the next day Best *** we ever had, we had on a naked mattress after a Sunday doing nothing This woman of five o' clock shadow and travel size **** loose skin from weight loss and a thick neck she is me and look at that lucky feel smearing over my dark mug like I just won the sweepstakes Like a run-on sentence she'll run She'll run, she'll run, run me till we need an oasis Best *** we ever had, we had on a naked mattress Squeeze your legs Squeeze your legs Squeeze your legs Squeeze your legs Squeeze your legs Squeeze your legs, Release them, A baker's dozen

Summer Shudder: "Best *** We Ever"
I've been paying attention more to the airwaves of ether we weave And also the air around town or wherever else I feel somewhat inclined to sit in a half crossed and dead legged pose Clicking the keys of letters in hackneyed prose You notice a noise and you look up to see You hear the voice that you wanted to be Calling for you from the opposite wall of the room That smiles and laughs despite those people who Scout out the cues like Jr. Detectives

Summer Shudder: "Sr. Detectives Club"
You know what I realized? How fantastic a thing realization is. Like, nothing particular or anything. Just, that moment when you kinda stop in your tracks for a second and go, "Huh. You know what?" Even the simple things are revelatory and what a great way to accidentally give yourself an unexpected better day. Wow, you know what? Today, I was keen enough and let my busy mind relax just enough to touch the universe again, and in that moment touch myself from the outside so that I remembered something I'd forgotten or before had never known. What is that, like the human singularity? Feels like it. QUICK, GRAB ON COMMANDER AND ALL YOU SPACE CASES. **** IT, GRAB ONTO THE WORLD BY THE ANT HAIRS! DIG YOUR FINGERS INTO THE GRASS! Let go and fall because you know it's better for your eventual grip on the state of matters in the laundry list you ordered with tasks representing your life. Am I better if I have one, I usually ask at the grocery store, to myself as I bag and then I get distracted by the sign for $3.99 pizza.
