R (Garage) G
Two letters, R and G, frame the white expanse. They're plastered on the wall, directly across from the place where all my accomplishments are stored (rehearsing!). How long have they been there? The letters, I mean? I never noticed them before, ever. How long have I been here?
These are odd questions to ask yourself while listening to a song you never liked until it started snowing. Are those letters made of wood (dead trees) or plastic (dead nothing)? Is that legal? The golf ball wasn't legal, but it's okay because we hid behind a dead stump, swore, and stood on a decomposing bird.
Things.
My vision is obscured by a blurry screen made of squares
- AND BY
An even blurrier, gently fluctuating (breathing?) screen made of small, white dots that drift and land everywhere. Sort of like dust, but less organic, or moreso, depending on water.
Seperation! Barriers! There's so much seperation!!!
It obscures eyes. Site and/or sight. How and/or Have. R and/or G.
The snow is still within my grasp, but it's nice to look at and if I touched it, it would melt. And my hand would be wet and I'd have to subtly sneak in to another room to wash it and dry it on a dirtier towel than ever before (purposeful, I assure you!)
The journey takes us past many other things that we don't notice because we're journeying. Pink erasor. A splash of pink. "I HAVE SOMETHING FOR YOU!!"
I want to hold the snowflakes! I want to hold them!
Screen will not stop child from falling out window.
Seven doves in the tree.
Rust makes stuff creak even if it's not metal.
I crack my knuckles to give myself (DER BILDENDEN) a drum beat.
If I reached in to that mailbox, what would happen to my arm?
Or am I already too late? Or was I always too late?
Every time my knuckle cracks, it is a gift.
Raped Herself---In the Past!!!
Author's Note.
I wrote this article
while I was doing homework
I wrote it in the margins of my homework assignment
after I finished copying it
from my homework
to the internet
I erased it from the homework
Leaving behind a white expanse
With R on one side and G on the other.
