The crayola monsters rose up from a kindergarten
desk top slithering wax writhing red tentacles reached up into baby
face through the eyes where pumpkin colored cut-out kites and paper
plate love letters for mom twirled glitterball magic Outside is the
courtyard with the cement cracks filled with black putty and grass tufts
and link fence with running shoes tied dangling laces. There are hopscotch
chalk marks and the little leapers hop to and fro; laughing laughing
and hopping about on their kitty pads, chasing sand birds, running and
pouting and pushing fat fingers up into the hot yellow sun ball. Inside
on the second floor there is napping and dreaming. Wee wee eyes see
a new road, a turn, more road, a turn and then the sun dilates and a
black drawbridge is hoisted up up and away. Bat things swirl backward
drain spit on the body a lovesick ointemnt and then begin raging like
free hair in an open convertible. Speeding cliffs, crashing breakwater,
the power of the heart race crankshaft and the noise makes you feel
very small like you are. It makes you afraid and slowly wipes out every
thought and decibals climb and you try and stop it but it's too late.
Careening oil slick hairpin catastrophe / burning wreck drop out. Now
the comfort; the Latex Body Baggie. Crawl inside with your sex muscle
and hop yourself over to the curb with the rest of humanity and the
Glad Bag pile up. Hey! You have survived the accident stress test and
have come out of the experience with only minor damage and no missing
apendages or noticeable surface defects.
