All the cute little ideas
Fat white maggots between your ears

Screaming screeching hold out all hold all scratching scraping hurting hurt me hold out cut me cold

I am going to be sick.
The colour of the car is sick green.
And it's nameplate is sublime

squirrels, deer, antelope, skunks, snipes.
And indeterminate creatures of various stripes

Striking attitudes, hurting each other, practicing
Expressions, a preponderance of violence, narcissism


Cruel, stupid, vile, freakish, screeching, shut up
Help me, hold me, divide me, dead head!
I love you. Watch it! Do you want to be my friend?
Stick ‘em up, kid. OK, rabbit, this is IT.

Screaming, scraping. Great look, honey! Look out!
Cutting, grazing, erasing, flattening, freaking out,
battering, blasting,
basting, wasting
Up here
At the high point of history and economy
We like everything

Blood, flowers, the same kind of pretty
A simple taste for simple atrocity

Little beasties with knives
Kids with cigarettes
Companions for a cappuccino
Distant friends

We met in the café of a digital research laboratory
On a mountainside in Colorado
She was drinking a cappuccino
From a paper cup, wearing an orange tunic
Just in from the warmth of Palo Alto
She sneezed
The soft fur on her ears
Wet from two little piles of melting snow
Her damp black nose
Glowing
Because it had magic powers.

I@ve been involved in an interesting project
She says
out west
Huddling into her pelt for warmth
Vapour rising off her
A pale twin of the steam from the cappuccino machine
I took a sip from my own cup
Flooding my neck with warm java
Avatar, I said.
And she nodded.
So you are the one
I have travelled so far to wed.

The skylight crumbled
Snow and ice shards mingling with fragments of glass
Blood shot from the necks and eyes of the assembled animals
Idling, talking data capture, rich media
They dropped their cups
Ran for the exits
Met with thousand mile an hour volleys of machine gun bullets
From black silhouettes.
And above us,
Green and red wings thrashing
Shunriki Tatzo was upon us.
Slavering over a Wacom tablet.

But I looked at her and saw that she was not afraid
All this, she said,
Fur flying off her,
Blood running down an all too human forehead
And into an eye that still saw
All this will fade.

Eat food you do or do not like. Eat it whether you like it or not.
Be never frivolous. Be always uptight.
The others who have chosen the path of foolishness
They will die
Bad things. Junk food. Garbage and poison. Cigarettes. Coffee.
The fun dichotomy.

Mice with guitars.

Thinks: if only I could get the little creature crowd
in a room with seriouso lady,
get them to talk, have it out,
express their differences. Kill each other maybe.
That would solve everything, I think.
The Gestalt psychology approach

Screaming, hurting, blasting, battering, juddering,
Crunching, crashing, cold, freezing, biting,
Shock, shocking, shrieking, screaming, waving,
Propeller cutter, scutter, screech, shriek,
Grab, hello, approach apron, gut, cold, go, forbid, shadow, blow
Blast you. Blast you, baby. Soft little legs and arms.
Dead plateau. Arrival. Depart. You will not move from this point. Your life will not move from this point. You are no more
than this
A mouth seeking colour
Soft shapes, simple relations
Amoral, innocent, vulnerable, undisciplined
In a universe where everything’s imagined possible
Without language
Repercussions
Or end or change
Brains already being eaten
A little baby.
I mean
The idea
Of
A little baby
