If You Write About Nothing It Becomes Something

September 26th, 2008 · 2 Comments · Something Else

In my apartment there is no time. Or there is only one time. And this is it. My clock eerily stopped working when I became unemployed. It was so weird I had a seizure. I barfed in the toilet. I danced like a virgin. Or maybe the battery just got weak. The second hand perpetually [...]

Um

September 19th, 2008 · 3 Comments · Memoirs

Class was good last night. Another five star poem. And I didn’t have to worry about getting fired the next day. Then I slept nine hours. I don’t even remember the last time I slept nine hours. In fact, I didn’t think it was possible. Well, not until this morning. I think I’ll take the [...]
