Ahyah yah gotit
he remembered
it had been grating his brain like a coarse wood file Ey got it
Big Bang thats what happens when you get pulled out from
under your routinethe yokethe grind ya
gotta remember things aint at your
elbow no more
some people needed routine
he wasnt sure he was one of them
but there was
that glaring obeisance to hardwork putting
his head downdigging in the grunting and
sweat
thats why his body was in the shape
it was
nobodys going to do the lifting
for younot for your benefit
it falls on your shoulders
so fuckin shaddupquit bellyaching
do
it
Big Bang
not forgotten misplaced
but like most things he couldnt find or remember immediately he bet on a family trait
it was in a safe place
it was a trait or characteristic
founded by his wife and ran replete
through him and their five childrenfive daughters – he was surrounded by a
hoard of old souls – he often remarked “growing up” which included him – there was
something to be said about growing up in a house surrounded by beautiful
fiercely-intelligent women
and he and his wife ran a democratic household
if he wanted to watch pro
football on Sundayscatch a Monday Night game they voted he had to go out
it didnt trouble him as much as
he thought it would
for it also bestowed upon him BEYOND
HIS WILDEST DREAMS which werent democratic or aligned
or a crapshoot that anyone wold have bet on that Time of the Month when all his girls were bleedingsix women and they bled at the same time I LOVE YOU GRRLS!
besides not all the games were worth his a
while
so shining football the only professional sport that interested him his democracy could have been hell but he rather enjoyed the weekends with
his wife and daughters his six beauties for the shortest portions of their
lives
he didnt use the word knew it typically refrained however to say he was blessed wouldnt have been
inappropriate
Big Bang
it had gone out of his head for the time beingother things filling
itthings he didnt imagined in his life hed negotiated
Whasa
time being
an extraterrestrial a sensate peeking inside his skull playing with re-wiring neurons forgetting to
post a warning or caution an informative sign of its entrance serial obscuration stretching oblong an oblonger an obloonger
hed written a text to his brotherinlaw of his dilemma hed left a key with him in case his brotherinlaw got luckyfound that
he could get some loving his wife was restrictingwithholding his brotherinlaw stopped over to feed
his cats
he told him which cupboard to find the coffee beans in : : Tell me, man, Peet’syah, whats the bean? It’s slipped my mind.
:
: U fucking kidding me? Big Bang?
A tenet of our astrophysics, our source of Heavenly Bodies? We have stardust in our bones!
he hadnt forgetten he misplaced it and he remembered before his brotherinlaw
chastised him via text
:
: Ahead of you. I recalled. Peet’s
Big Bang is the coffee. I remembered. Thank you for looking in the cupboard.
if his brotherinlaw texted back
that he hadnt remembered hed coldly lambast him for putting up with the poor
excuse of a woman his wife was
he didnt think hed have to
his brotherinlaw knew his wife
was a piece of shit
she was
the right sex the wrong politics and
religion
