all my days now are
days of fatigue
and i know they will ever be
swimming in this sickness cloud that is fatigue
where are my limbs
where
head a balloon
an empty earthen ***
where
my tongue dry out of place
place, trying to find it in the mouth
where
body
strangely light  
some weird machine i have to drive
skin
rhino skin
old, dry parchment
eyes glass things
where
worn out  soul looks at a dreamy world.
i wonder all the time if I am going really to faint or run into a wall, but all that happens is just more
fatigue

I am the dreamer
So I don't belong
In world of things
I carry its distortion that is me
To blur and change its real colors
So dazzling clear
And every rustle and puff of wind
Rumbles in my ears
I hear
I feel my life
I taste the very air I breathe
Enjoy the pressure of my pen
On paper
See what I see
The castles of clouds
The velvet sea as jelly lazily lolling
And every blade of grass
So perfectly created
And hazed sky where winds as currents mingle and mix
See what I see
The dazzling limpid image of my world
With every line and shape as cut in light and glass
See what I see
For I'm the dreamer

Wordspinning
Wordthreading wordsewing
Wordspinning
Melted in some mellow glow
Deep inside
Words come in flickering flow
Bondless glide
Wordmatching wordpatching
Wordhatching wordsnatching
Wordspinning

Six tongues in my mouth
Six minds in my mind
Six knives in my back
Six bullets.
Each tongue wants its turn
Each mind wants its way
Each knife wants a hand
To pull it.
About the experience of being actually able to speak six languages: how each brings along different cultures, mentalities, and ways of expression that sometimes betray you, or influence you in a manner you don't like...

I raised my hand
Yet could not **** them...

A pair of winged lovers
Mating
In my empty coffee cup

Fat black flies

If I just could
pull the skin in one piece off my face
tearing slowly, strongly with my fingernails
baring the muscles

Then if I just could
pull the muscles away piece by piece
tearing slowly, strongly with my fingernails
baring the bones

Then if I just could
pull my eyes out of the sockets
tearing slowly, strongly with my fingernails
baring the empty gaze

Baring the truth of my face
Baring the grin of my skull

through the thick soup of human plankton
a tiny gray particle
me
in the thick soup of bodies
human plankton
me
looking up
the sun clouded by layers of human plankton
above me
me
looking up
skies obscured by layers of human plankton
above me
me
pushing my way up through the thick layers  of human plankton
upwards
for just one, just one
breath of fresh air
Does it look better in this shape?
