21.8.24


had a restless night
                     which was awfullyhard to believe because the laundry room was across the hall from the bedroom ran the washer its whitenoise usually eased his mind erased the day if it had been badit wasnt gently rockabye babied him

woke in the morning sleeping sideways on the bednearer the foot than the head

opening his eyes he saw the matteblack steel gun cabinet at his feet

humouring himself he bought boxes of magnetic coloured alphabets and numbers and scribbled nonsensically on the it except for occasional specific reminders 
HMMM
         he exhaled
on the side of the locker near the top was an E it was blue S yellow I red
                                                                           Whastha spell he thought
Spelled an alternative EASY

angled off the S and I was an n green

tailing off the n was a T purple

angling back into the fieldas it were was an upside down U blue

beside the U a backward C red


scratched his head
                     he placed the letters randomly after scattering the magnets across his bed then decorated the cabinet
          or 
had one of his female guests pranksters  played with them
                                                                 frankly
any one of his motley crew may have
                                        not that they were motley
marvelous more accurate
but who wants to say my marvelous crew to motley
                                                        and they loved the descriptive
in spite of the few unexpected times when twothree crewmembers gangedup gangbanged him

he had a habitexcelled at taking down inhibitions
                                                     had been a fouryear Varsity wrestler in high school
his specialty was takedowns
were the two related

                           like he cared


sittingup he spun on his tail set his feet on the woodfloor stood
                                                                      got out on the right side

had he not had the night he did there was no way knowing if he ever would have recognised the mystical arrangement among the other coloured letters numbers scattershot round them
