Can I have a word, please?
It can be any word.
Just give me a word.

We can all share the rest.
Just let me have one.
It can be anything.
I'd take canteen or avid.
I'd even settle for timely.

But you can't use my word,
whatever it is,
without asking.
Because it's my word.

And I'll almost always let you use it when you ask.
Unless, for example, my word is wonderful
and you want to use it to describe a movie I haven't seen yet
or a movie I saw already and didn't care for.

I really want everything.
That's my first choice.
Flabbergasted is a close second.

some day you'll say you need space.
but,
baby, i'd give you the whole ******* universe.

the fireplace is on drugs.  get the good rope and tie it around the wrist of the hand I want dead.

on a drive I’ve undertaken to see my brother, it comes to me that odd things were being sold.  jesus-on-a-stick.  the crown of thorns, extra.  I close my eyes.  I dare the brain.  the brain says it’s off to be forgiven.

brother has one ugly foot and one beautiful.  I have this disorder causes me to fully remember dreams

dreams only

everything happened in 1985.  words don’t mean.  numbers mean.  tell your gay father he has nothing to do with himself.

the wind is asleep.  it sleeps outside.

you have no ******
idea how badly you're
******' boring me
