my experience of delusion and truth
and how to tell the difference
during summer vacation
was my term paper topic in tenth grade
I wonder what it feels like to think behind your eyes
to dream the same dream just once
or fall in step with your steps when you have
nowhere to go
what do you think about the massacres in the fields?
the beautiful horror of it all
night coming on with its nocturnal appetites
who are up with the moon cleaning their teeth
I was badly bitten by ants when I was a child
they were so small I couldn't take it personally
cockroaches however covered the floor walls and ceiling
of the kitchen
the whole room swimming with them moved
around me
pulsating with a life of its own
it was monstrous
it was repulsive standing there in the middle of it
I kept thinking: I wish you could see this!
