funny looking women... that "somehow"...
and "spontaneously"... appear
in your local supermarket...
around your: happy-to-get-to...
happy hour... when the shelves are
being stacked...
come the closing minutes
of no regret fif-teen...
  funny looking women...
most certainly journalists... journalistic types...
well groomed...
they stand out like...
a toothpick might
in a forest of pine trees...
funny looking women:
hardly attached to children...
professional types: typos...
         i must be vacating a point
of being in some: variation of: zoo...
catch me tripping on paranoid...
it usually takes at least one:
handler... to get to the grease:
cogs and ease of convo
with a limited extraction
of moi...
          
oh i don't mind being: wrong...
i mind being right...
like...
i don't mind being dead:
i wouldn't mind becoming famous...
i couldn't stomach being famous
while simultaneously being alive...
perhaps when i'm... done: dead...

when you farm out... grasp the local:
biases...
and some scrutiny of...
the outsider comes around from time
to time...
it's not that something is "up":
it might as well be down...
how many narratives are we willing
to keep?
there's... how many of us?
even if i demand all the rivers
that later congregate themselves
into the Delta of the (Sigma)
of the Amazon...

             units... two bottles of wine...
i'm certain of 22 units...
i'm on my third... i'll be teasing that
sensibility to nothing more than...
70cl of whiskey: which ends up being
28 units...

good to know:
i won't be made available to make up their life...
better still: i will be halving what
could be foreseen as somehow:
approachable.
