. . . hadnt a clue whawas next
was always a fine place
fine to be curious to be anxious to discover if hed actually write or
take dictation
one of these days hed
meet who or whos
which would be a kick in the head
banjaxed liked the look of the Irish meant totally ruined wrecked tired or drunk

All of the Above
multiple
choice
he preferredunlike most his teachers writing essays
he could be persuasive
if they could read his
handwriting
took the US History test Junior High Social Studies fail it not promoted
it was a BIG FUCKIN thing
fortunately
he broke his left arm twice in succession
broke his leg preceding Eighth Grade had
been physically tough
as he was saying
fortunately
he was lefthanded
forced to write with his right
his teacher asked him to see her
after class after test papers were returned
she loved essays
I can’t read your writing, but I’ve determined
given your involvement, your participation during class, every day, that you
understand the material required and I’m promoting you.
took every fibre of his being not
to scream MOTHERFUCKER
ducked
a bullet there
who do you praise for thawhich god hed pull a train if he had to if
one understood his drift
there was also this beaut
he came around a
cornerwalked straight into her she tried
to runaway he was fastergot her by the
hairshould have worn it up
her head was awash with reptiles
of resentment still had heryanked her by the hair rage confusion
was creepy even by his
standards
whatever it meant
had no idea
but he liked the imagery
when the reptiles recognised he was restraining her their prey
they began to turncome after him
he let go
she shot off like a neverbeforestretched
rubberband off a ruler
elementary classroom

No worries I keep the door locked

Everyone?
Everyone needs to see
Do you feed it?

Havent feed it a thing
Seems
to survive on either something I cant see
Or thin air
A vermin
And you keep it in the dark?
It prefers not being seen
Butgirlie as you saw flip on that overheard naked 100watt lightbulb it scurries madly tryin to find dark an shadows to hide

German Jew Jew German difference is negligible was then that difference was stoked by the caustic hatred of a man who manically swept
the countryplied it with his vulgar Aryan WHITE myth
myth
bears repeating MYTH
his word for it was lie
words have always fascinated him
he exhibited lexophiliac
preferred lexiphiliac
tendencies
a word lover
two favourites Jew German German Jew sameness had words for anythingeverything imaginable
verklempt
from Yiddish farklempt, from German
verklemnt, literally pinched, squeezed defined overcome with emotion Oxford

trepverter stairwords
Yiddish
when considering an earlier conversation a witty comeback presents too late
akin German treppenwitz
staircase wit a calque literal word for word rendition of the French
esprit de l’escalier
a third beaut
however not of the
samenesstumble he relished above is wabi-sabi
made him think of palegreen cleanses your sinuses wasabi
like horseradish and mustard
wabi-sabi Japanese Art of Impermanence
wabi translates to less is more
sabi means attentive melancholy
together “an awareness of the
transient nature of earthly things and a corresponding pleasure in the things
that bear a mark of this impermanence”
