You get to travel
really far. But first
you had to be
transmogrified
to ash and gas,
and some of your
atoms will reach
escape velocity
and fall back into
the sun. It was
borrowed material
anyway, and fine
free Someday
was a good day
for returns anyway.

3D printing everything,
copying it bit by bit.
Filament is made from
bits of real world”,
the ad says. The duplicate
will be indistinguishable
from the original. My
evil plan is afoot. I
don’t worry about
fidelity. My
predecessor
didn’t either.
Evil hands wring
“muahahah.”

Cedar sticks don't work
Still got tiny flying pests
Please don't eat my clothes

Happiness and adversity,
how can they coexist?
Perhaps they overlap as
Happversity and Adness,
or maybe they’re mutual.

Adversity killed the
monster and Happiness
ate it, and with a little
protein, Happy realized
the secondary
nature of smiling.

Thus indigestion
was born.

Airing out

Windows wide open
Breeze cleansing the atmosphere
Everywhere smells good

Someone stuck forever
in the junk drawer, and
now it’s knotted.

There’s a charging cord
to who knows what.

And he’s silent.

Quarks ride the backs
of pedantic turtles,
snapping reins as they
prepare to untangle.

Chapstick. Lots.

I shut the drawer and
leave it open
uncertain

Your world is a
20 x 20room.
The walls are
blank, nondescript.

You note a
general soreness
in your right hand.

Clothing seems to have
been optional this AM.

You hold a sieve in your
left hand.

There is a pear and pez.
Take a pear and pez? (Y/N?)

The sieve is greying out.

There’s a chance I might get to read one of my poems on national television. I’m thinking maybe I’ll read the one about what it’s like to have chronic tinnitus. It’s never been published anywhere, and I think it’s a good one.

Much loved and wanted
A constant source of worry
Live is just like that

Said goodbye to
Normal Alan’s
sleep patterns.

He said I could
borrow them. At
first I was grateful.

But appears their
predation on my
regular rhythms

has subsumed
what was, and left
the blinds open.

A wake is scheduled
at 4am. Thoughts
and prayers.
