to see

to see things today you need to turn them 90 degrees. people are flat, not like cartoons, but like metal that has been pounded and pounded since the day it was forged. i like it when only you are around, because then we can turn and only show each other as much as we want. when there are more than two, you and he see me at different angles which means lies which means anger which means more pounding.

i wish i could hypernate. i wish my body could bloat like a bear but with my mind still there. it's my body which gets me in trouble, with it always rubbing up against you while my mind tells this story with a bad ending and a sunday school moral. stories like "he'll come home" or "pleasure now, fists later." if i could hypernate my mind would be free to tell funny stories with happy endings that don't mean anything, just like on tv.

to see things today you need to turn them 90 degrees. i wish i were a hermitian operator that eats up all of these complex probabilities and spits out something real. i wish i looked the same from all directions, just like a sphere. such is the life of a piece of paper: wish wish wish, pound pound pound.
