burnt morning. the breakfast was gone so I had coffee. The details of dolphins were the bathroom mantra; turning the eyes inside out. Refolding the socks I realized a smell I hadn't in "years". The gas must have been avoiding me. A smell of butterscotch. Why I haven't been able to smell butterscotch is unknown to me. I remember a turquoise flame when the bonfire burnt the old tire. No one was around so the fire was for me and me alone. Me and me alone. I used to force the ***** down my throat and it seeped out my eyes in paint thinner tears. A faraway howl of a wolf--how bad ***. I was like the very-peak of a glacier come to reclaim me stomachspot in the Wild. Fortunes came and went and I began to melt. Ice cream in the hand of a toddler. Pink icecream in the hand of a giant who wouldn't take care of the courage when it looked so mediocre and small. It's about time the dark ghosts come to reclaim their nest, so come on, I'm waiting.
