Do not punch anyone in the face.
Do not punch anyone in the anywhere for that matter.
No violence. Do not do it.
Regardless of what you feel is appropriate. Do not do it.
Your instinct is wrong.
Smile instead. Listen to the static. Listen to
the long note and joy in it.
You will have a good day.
Listen to the storm warning and hear it.
Let it coach you. Let it talk to you. It is not noise.
It is sound.
Breath in and out.
It is sound and the sound is in you and there is nothing
to do about it.
Motivation is angry
at its core.
It does not have to be angry at its terminal.
Know this and opperate
and we all go home intact.
Return of the Giant Robot
The rotor blades were deafening.
I was reaching down to him
to clasp hands and lock on hard enough,
dislocations aside,
to haul him up
because science doesn't play games
when it comes to survival.
I was close.
The zombies were
clawing
their
way up
the body of the mech
that shut down.
It ran out of fuel or battery or whatever was making it go.
Its difficult to remember.
The last thing he did was command it
to reach up its hand as high as it could go
and blow the cockpit in it's chest and climb
for all he was worth
along the arm plate armor
after stomping out every last undead soul
his eight ton boot could mash
into red paste.
The helicopter went too fast on its first pass and wheeled back
for another one.
They climbed and climbed harder and faster,
the mech a statue, and the beacon firing off in my ear piece
shouting "you're here, you're here, you're here"
like a bird for an arrow tip
and swinging in
feet from his hand
the helicopter missed.
I watched him jump and brake against the second tier
and break apart on the third tier of a sky scraper beside it.
I pulled my rip chord in dreamland
and landed
conscious and in one piece.
Happy to be breathing;
wishing I was dead.

Motor
In the way out back we
laugh and take things far too seriously.
Kick rocks and dig up from the core.
Remember classes? There was an article
about making money.
Worth the read
in that knowing when caring is important
is as important as when concern
is an over reaction
and now is brutal bliss
with a side of go.
The stars are a little icky
on the tongue and sinuses.
Thinking about vacations is a tall order.
Pack for snow or for sand?
Speak German, or Spanish, or Tokyo'n.
Goggles are important.
Towels too.
I had this dream and we talked it out
because I felt like I was betraying what I stood for
in enjoying it. I loved that I could talk
because no one hears you scream in outer space
or something like that.
I've heard.
The ice cream won't jimmy itself.
Too much salt is too much salt.
Hurt is for the slow and the dull.
Myths. Hold my hand. I like the paint marker shine on my fingernails. My shoes are beautiful if you look really hard.
It said the top one percent own twenty percent of everythin'.
May have been closer to fifty.
Drummed up panic.
Horseshoe is a fine game.
Spit tastes close to hot fountain water
at the basketball courts.
But dig up from the core
and I will love you. Engine running. At the border.

Shaving
I taught myself how to shave
and how to change a tire
and how to do an oil change.
I taught myself how to tie a tie
and how to tie a tie right
and almost how to make a bow tie.
I taught myself how to drive stick
and how to talk like you mean it
and how to joke. When you mean it.
These things took work
and he was done working with me
when I was ready
to offer
input.
Okay. Part two? No.
But I will
be willing
to help anyone else
as long as
they don't ask me
where I've inned.

It's Lust
Cuddling is for
someone else.
Can you rest your feet on me
curled up near where the bed ends.
One over the other the same
you did on the way to D.C.?
That train ride was kind of funny.
That 70 year old smacking her bubblegum.
Animal, but never with me,
I'm jealous. Jelly on toast and no butter.
You're breaking my heart and my heart doesn't know
how else to be close to you, little sister.
Sleep over.

I Found God In a Hotdog
I do not know why
it took so long
to realize
relish is a pickle diced and
hotdogs are so good with pickle spears instead.
All of the joy of relishable relishlyness of relish
and none of the mess.

Wires and thicker wires and copper. Plated pennies and guitar solos and generators as big as square mileage of states and vacillations between cosmic bodies. Can govern a soul. Operation, but we get a little farther beyond the game of. Life and death gets old real quickly. When you don't know what the weather will be. Tomorrow is another day. Light is hard when you wander out of your front door at 2 P.M.
Is unacceptable so try harder. Is better than going the quick route. Home need not be the slipshod if you can manage to make the time to change it into. The heart of the sun glows something smiley when. Feeling dies down into something manageable. Speed is sweet like letting the clutch go seamlessly into second gear. Up for combat. Said the face to the body and the bones.
While the head punched a hole in the sky and he came. Buckets in the brigade to the factory on fire somewhere west of here. Lies captain first class ribbon on a chest of gold. Slippy glitter coin fresh from the battle where eyes still see blood at the edges. Are things that make people part. From each other the same way electromigration damages circuits over time.
Grafts skin back together where nothing else could. We have a party where we only drink. Sodas on the road to bigger and better things. Fall down harder because they are sky giants feasting whale like on the itty bits of dreams that turn into current driven silt. Will settle. Down to the floor when there is enough shift in currents or some kind of stand still. Enough it's hard to tell if the ground moves.
Bring the clouds into question and they will give. Two eyes on the heavens where the sky decides to bleed through the sutures. Taste funny when they are licked too hard. Up for answers that feel quaked to begin with. This sword will bring the kingdom to the ground. Reason down to powder. A nose is another mode of feeling. The world come apart. From everything known before. Source code.
