tasseography or tasseomancy which sounds creepier  interpreting patterns in tea leaves and coffee grounds

                                                                                                            and for those curlingwhiffs of California rarifiedsmoke shimmering over vineyards  wineries  social uppity realms   œnomancy

hes a feet-on-the-ground freak unless theres ladders probably because hes never fallen from one he relates his spirit with the buffalo

if he were incandescentiridescent a shiny soap bubble a threesixty sphere

                                                                                then he would have considered relating with the hawk

having laid out deliberate points

hes the kind of guy whod rather if youd rather notquit here   interpret caramelcoloured urine stains in urinals or in bowls of bathroom sinks

                                           AwJesus. You gotta be kiddin’.

No

      makes no sense to piss in a toilet even if not flushing it until finally a bowel movement arrives allowing one to eliminate steeped filmcoveredchilled beefbroth  slick of urine

Well.   Ifya put it that wa . .

. . I do

    Then reading urine stains would be in kind.

 

I appreciate tha

She wants to go

I want to go.

 

the house was beginning to wake

his daughter when she finished her shower would relieve him

as the kids peeked around the corner their mother closed her eyes

he didnt tell them she had emerged

she closed her eyes because seeing themknowing she wouldntcouldnt be there for them very soon she didnt want them to see that in her eyes

a look that will remain indeliblyetched

                                          would haunt them no fault of their own

they came in gently kissed her hands  left to have breakfast

hed walk them to school  relieved of his shift

                                                  then nap

 

the kids finished breakfast were getting dressed

his daughter came into the room

Shes conscious

I know. I hear her loud and clear.

                                       approaching her bed she opened her eyes

I heard you, love.

she carefully put her arms around her avoiding the tubes the hoses the machined artifice of alive  held her   kissed her temples her forehead

                                           couldnt kiss her mouth for the ventilator mask

had they kissed her enough

 

enough would never have been enough

 

the kids came out

she closed her eyes again

again the kids kissed her hands

as he went to follow them out he said to his daughter

                                                          We have to help her  Help her

Yes.   I understand.

Hurray for ye Man

                         or as his mother described his father  . . . a worthless piece of shit

he could only imagine the work that would have had to go into becoming a worthless piece of shit to a woman who fell in love and married

    he had an idea bouttha

                                he knew his parents when things between them were good  didnt want to say better  tried to imagine the wordsalad from “I do” to “What the fuck was I thinking?”

his hypothesis shared it with his wife when he courted her

                                                                I want you to pullback, let the shine of love go out of your eyes briefly  Now being able to see your reflection through wha had been shine  an abraded scuffed up silver metal

                           Look really hard

If you see me at all as some kind of project tha you can fix put the finishing touches on

                                                                                            Give it up

                                                                                           Whaya see

                                                                                          Is whaya get

                                                                                    Im as real as real can get

the Hurray was prompted inside his head by learning of a species new to him

                                                                                   vampire flies

what so appalled him  hes familiar with people  soulsuckers  calls them out to their face  cannot abide them    classically  if they were on fire he wouldnt stop to piss on them   also classically Tina Turner  Burn, baby, burn.  Disco Inferno  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RgmgWAstDNs

vampire flies consort with human beings

                                            “. . . native to mainland South America and Trinidad, and has become a major invasive species specifically in the Galápagos Islands since the 1960s.”

“We found gene flow among (vampire) fly populations on islands that are popular tourist destinations, such as Santa Cruz and Isabela, whereas no gene flow was detected in islands like Marchena, which receive little human activity. This finding highlights how human movement may have facilitated the spread of P. downsi across the archipelago, emphasizing the role of human activities in shaping invasion dynamics.”  https://www.kent.edu/sustainability/news/genomic-study-reveals-secrets-behind-invasion-success-avian-vampire-fly
