I've been hunting In the forest of dreams, Getting drunk and Listening to Jefferson Airplane For the very first time. It's a night for dreaming I suppose. I've just broken the barriers of love for a man I've known so long that I've nearly forgotten who he is. A piece of furniture in my strange little room. I'll make a list Of the things I see here Apart from his lingering eyes: A musc stand A jewelry box A chair A dress - Not mine, though it was once Young girls and their blues Come to me from the feather in the meadow. Listen for the ticking of my footsteps. That's poetry. God that's poetry. Why can't I write like that? It's like looking my enemy in those bright, tremoring eyes And facing my envy with my ego and my ahmmer That's beauty. God she's beautiful. Why can't I be beautiful like her? Why can't I appreciate Jefferson Airplane like she does? I've convinced myself that I hate her for her moral depravity. For so liberally spreading her character and her legs. I know I hate her because I hate myself. And because everyone loves her, not me. . Ad were I half the human being I portray, none of this would matter. Understanding is a virtue hard to come by. You could teach me how to love if you try. My husband will sleep with his head all buried down and at the foot of his bead. I'm certain I'll abuse him, emotionally at least He'll have to be the hardest or softest poor ******* tht ever lived. I tread on everyone's good emotional graces with my obtinance and determination in being obstinate. It is, as it always will be, about my happiness.   I'd rather have my country die for me. Stream of confidence: Consciousness and the problem with it is that my mind moves faster han my hand can crsft Door, bell, whistle, heart, ***** therapy, tea, love, mint, ice cream, mother, father, ring, matrimony, and there it ends. Matters only of the heart. I'll eventually ***** all of the rest of the things that I haven't wanted to say to anyone anyway. I feel as though someone is in this room with me Maybe that's just the distortion pedal talking. Listen to those drums Like a heartbeat Like a war cry I swear the Earth just moved from beneath my soul. Once, I bet, I;ve had that kind of primal instinct A hunter After his dream game A drunken huntsman never misses his mark
