Air Conditioning.

I
lay
flat
and
don't
move
a
muscle.
I
lay
still
and
don't
hear
a
sound.
I
lay
tense
thinking.
I
can't
stop
thinking.
I
shut
off.
Tiny.
Little.
Light.
Racing.
In.
and.
Out.

Like buttons. Like Pencils.

Just looking from the outside in. That's all I've been doing. Into this realm that might seem yellow, aqua, or maroon--all based on the sequencing throughout the radiation that you give off. Because the heart may beat faster, rushing through highways of travel-light passengers who flick you off at an instant of recognition.

Because nothing is sacred anymore. It's all this pish-posh. I don't mean to sound angry. I'm just scared.

But trying to swim in the icy water won't hurt you. It'll only make you stronger. At sight you seem weak but by days in and days out you grow stronger. You love stronger. You fight stronger. You want a little more out of everyday. You hold hands. You forget about things. But you never forget.

Midnight Run.

Plain white pictures in plain white tees.

As lifeline stressmarks pull life long creases.

Town lights liven up years of redundant habitat.

Of likeness in romance and lasting winter chills.

You really think so? Are you sure? Yeah, Okay.

An insatiable rant is upon the brink. Without a doubt, my mind spins slowly as I count the days until my memories forget. Forgetting lousy trips, forgetting simple chats, forgetting things that were trapped inside something else quite unimportant, uneventful in a way. Like taking a sledgehammer and filing away at a stump. Looping the beef and punching a wall.

If boredom is inevitable why should it be boring at all? Why not just coin it life and take a piss? Squat, shoot, one-hand it, whatever the hell you choose. Maybe my new years resolution should include, "Wake up and smell the waffles--grow up and embrace loneliness. Convert it into time well spent. Lap up the cold water and breathe in whatever well spent mechanism engulfs your mind and embraces your inherit suave-like persona."

Agenda:

1. Chuckle
2. Watch
3. Lie
4. Repent
5. Write
6. Count sheep
7. Repeat nonsense

Liquor me up captain. Although excuses may come at a price, I believe this ticket has run it's course. The taste of alcohol disgusts me, yet, it is the aroma that sickens me overall. Like a moldy blanket it engulfs me-- it let's me forget that I'm bored.

I would like to take up boxing to alleviate this problem--well, of this fiend that chooses to hide in the shadows: piss drunk boredom; it sits in the corner, knocks on the empty spot in your shallow mind. Because no one can stop it--so far. If I mend these boxing gloves to my flesh--my knuckles, at least-- I can gold glove my way out.

Out into what though?

Outer space? Strawberry fields? Recess?

God, I miss recess. Captain, hand me that rancid stuff.

This might get a little out of hand.

Guitar Twangin' and Falsetto Sangin'

Scratch of the jaw.

It itches.

Why? Well, I'm not quite sure. But it itches, a lot.

"Way to kick off the new year," you may be screaming at your computer screen.

But all I am is a lonely robot, in this fleshed out, naval pierced sense of a world. Nothing but tin and cones.

That's all I got.
