x for you there are bugs clawing over the rock's body at the summer when the seagulls are switching over calenders and crackling like electric ocean slugs. i am headed into the waves, crowding and swirling in the portal where i'm swimming to smother popcorn under glass . the popcorn turns to mush in my hands like time or couscous porridge within the deep dark depths sweeping away to the air under glass.

you had dropped your popcorn in the water. now it they are pop flowery remnants
i don't remember my room but i remember playing in a ditch and making rivers. the flood from roads on a raining day made the sewers full. i put on my boots and watched the water go through tunnels in the city down to the estuary forest swamp where i saw a full bag of blood hanging from a tree by the entrance

i don't remember my room
i wish i looked like counting things on travels through bad lands. desert, sand, abandoned wells   cold indians the landscape looked the same a few times over from the carriage and then the fireworks came up from the desert over the sky and it became night i started counting the fireworks instead of cacti

at the chevron hospital to settle nerves opal squeaky teeth and mint clear nose of mint at the chevron hospital the doctor comes to check my winter tongue my eyes are soggy bark a cloth is being wrung a sightless worm is having a seizure in a washing machine filled with teeth, a sightless worm is having a seizure in a moist cavern clicking carbonation, wringing over saliva   to hiss, not saying a word just ringing mouths blinking at the chevron hospital through tangled help, my eyes are soggy bark a cloth is being wrung a sightless worm is having a seizure and my nerves opal to mint and clear me

calling the help line a knit bird is silence busy cereal box hard times my skin is floating in the fabric cavern of clothes like an astronaut lighting candles, burning death christmas gravity swallowing at the whole waiting for a song to play in the back of my mind help line silence feeling the floor

they had just been painted and the air was full of paint and shopping carts and hot dogs from a hot dog stand. it's my job to collect shopping carts for the shoppers and once i pushed 2 shopping carts at once but never more than that. i wish my job had more to do with hot dogs and less about shopping carts because i like hot dogs but at least i get to work around the smell of hot dogs, which i like

This city has bursting green roots that shine higher than the towers. Trees are growing downwards through, the roads are leaves inside. roads touch holy ancient relic is inside body hole far off from space rests up on the buildings
