this is what is true: find a language 

she has and he has no language

they have no talk

your talk makes me die and develop anxiety!

your talk makes me overcome death but that isn't all-

it makes me sad breathing & yell out of a car window

"be on time!" as a greeting?

better to scream fuck you to 

everyone you love

i am missing the words

with every stop i am 

missing the word and killing myself

you know?

knowingly

i got hit off the chat list

did you know That?

fortunately i didn't care

or spill anything 

because i am old this time

and i am growing up later

every day children are born

did you know that?

they have language!

it is not a mess. 

there are twins that have their

word for chocolate 

bok bok

sounded book like book like

at least they weren't attached at the head

or they'd be expected to have a 

soul singing career

'the dead nurses'

i am going to start a hostel in argentina

called dead nurses 

all of the menus are in twin speak open

language:

i, you, we, if 

as, if, it, were

you, i, we, as

were, it, if, you.

you don't have to start anew

can just keep going 

do you remember that smoke screen

you'd saved?

you would say

i saved a smoke screen once

i put on an outfit of pure clothes

and danced through my smoke screen

attractively

there were people looking on and those people were also

talking to each other

i will set them up against each other

so that we can see them talk

(proceedings:)

"if it is ever true, we have a dialogue"

"i have a log about it"

(taking notes in a log)

"yes, in the woods"

"how big was it?"

"was there an abandoned language?"

"do you feel urchin-like?"

"have you ever been to a kentucky carnival etc?"

this is not an interview

we are having a conversation

someone fill the brushes

we paint now

(proceedings)

"i missed you"

"you were foolish"

(i care less)

"i am care less"

"i drift aimlessly

in inner passion"

"what else is there?-

god?"

"feel like stopping?"

"no. when you begin you can never actually

or i mean when you actually begin you can never

really 

like, stop."

now i want to talk about something academic

the label academic is used to remind you

that i have been to college

get your things together

we are leaving

we are going to a lecture where there is a great 

intellect who is talking about the world and how things in it 

work. 

don't pick up that fiberglass branch

you can't use it in the auditorium

all you need is your great big head

i brought a length of tree limb just in case

no one understands the non-academic gesture

may as well have brought a drunk dog

(proceedings)

don't be like that, this is the new asylum

the new coliseum, the new pantheon, the new college de france,

the new executive board room, the new museum

this is the new arcane

get with it!

i am sleeping on a blanket by a long string of animals they run through town before

everyone is going to work

going to world you mean

yes

midnight sun and all

it was a beautiful sight

ohh!

you still think about beauty!

yes

why shock yourself? of course i am 

your friend, and i think of beauty. you are fitting into a different mood.

trees mean beautiful.

the world is a vampire?

i am an arsenal of memory?

i have to tell you a secret

it is not for the world

it is for you

(proceedings)

do you remember the smoke screen?

do you remember the length of vertebrae we stretched?

you are remembering?

you are coming in waves and waves of beautiful pleasure?

are we getting a little closer to being able to say anything yet?

this is all i can show you for now.

it is because i ran out of ideas and got distracted

i will tell you, though, there is a large pile of small things on my desk which i have collected and here is an inventory:

a gold ribbon coiled and secured by bobby pin, a chipped plaster flower, red plastic webbing, a die, orange spraypainted rock, orange spraypainted rock, orange spraypainted bark chip, violet plastic shape, cherry pits, lava, yellow plastic coated wire, a ball of bright red play dough, white ceramic knob, a small hand with dirt on it, tiny snail shells and other shell fragments, turquoise plastic arrow, blue spraypainted wood chips, an insane looking fish jaw piece, a rusted spring, green sea glass, seafoam ceramic tile chunk, light green plastic shape, yellow plastic shape, pink plastic shape, red plastic shape, grey plastic shape, a sea brick, a paperclip.
