passing out through
the grocerys sliding glass doorsturning right he nearly unearthed and toppled a
silverhaired woman
he grabbed her by the shoulder to right her and in doing so woke her from her somnolence
or placating reveries she didnt appear to be in the Here and Now
Excuse me he
mutteredhe didnt deliver it in the form of an apology
if he hadnt grabbed her she would have walked
blindly into him and found herself dropped on her skinny ass or well-dressed expensively-dressed skinny ass
Oh Oh
a
dog had more sense to protest
Youre
fine
he
let go of her shoulder
she
seemed stable
Have
a good day
as he walked
away he tossed a glance over his shoulder
she had
turned right and stood facing the car glass-sparkling parking lot at the front
of the grocery
walking on he
considered that the woman definitely needed some help with her make-up
she had deep
furrows that etched themselves to either side of her face from the corners of her mouth to
her jaw
he couldnt put
down or escape his thought that she was a ventriloquists doll or dummyshe certainly moved dummyish woodenfooted
lethargic
she felt hard stickish where he grabbed her at the shouldergripping all cloth and
nothing else
and quite frankly her movementin the glance he had to recognise her persontheir imminent collision she moved as if she were propel by something
other than herself
he could fancy
someone had their fist up her ass directing her cadence and absorbing her
complete and horrified attention or
possession were the elderly doing hallucinogenic drugs
into the next
parking lot over across the long entryway that bisected the city lot into two
discernable venues he glanced back
she wasnt
there
she was motile
and either had entered the store where he thought she
was heading or had crossed into the parking lot and was inside a car and hidden
he couldnt see her
he didnt hold
his glance into a gaze
she was gone
Ah
but where was the ventriloquist that violated
herworked his fingers inside of herspoke the words she moved her wooden
powdered mouth to
he or she
intrigued him
how many people were their
puppets
how many had they violated
unwillingly
willingly
some people
can be lead like sheep
some people
were comfortable handing off their reinsdoing as they were told easily incited persuaded
or cajoled
by secrets they vehemently preferred remain secret
this took “getting
into ones head” into new territory(or terroritory) or upped the ante for “taking it in the ass”(not that there anything was wrong
with that – properly lubed)
he would have
spent more time pondering her if it hadnt been for a grasshopper who launched
itself onto the rear panel of a black Cadillac Escalade it mottled its carapace and
extremities like a squid seeking to camouflage itself as the car idled at a
traffic light
Better jump
down from off there friend Cant say the claws
to your tarsi and pulvilli are up to the task of holding on paint at 35 40
miles an hour or that your wings wont tear free if you deploy them in a
last-ditch effort to save yourself
(he was all for earthlings) Youre really not in a good situation
the light
changed
one more ride

who
