this conversation couldnt have come at a better time 

                                                       everythings better while stoned

and parts of the conversationbit and pieces are better because they never get out of the can  ruminated but not enunciated  then better yet when you take exceptionget a little hot under the collar  youre disregardedlike your thought wasnt worth comment or debate 

                                  WHAT DO YOU THINK 

What are you talking about?

Wha I said

Said? You haven’t said anything, you been staring off into space.

I didnt say 

Not a word.

Well 

        Suppose that means I cant be a Pentecostalist

What do you mean by that?

Cant trust me to vocalise fluent

What do you mean by that? I’m repeating myself, am I repeating myself? why am I repeating myself? his eyes grew larger with each refrain

Yare stoned 

I am.

        Where were you?

Vocalise fluent

What do you mean by that? he cocked his head to a side like a dog you expect understands what you said to them or a child unable to comprehendwithout the vocabulary to take in what you told them  youre just talking out loud to yourself

I meanan I find it ridiculous glossolalia Ive been accused of that while going down on a girl talking she didnt understand a wordI don remember what I was saying but she certainly liked my enunciationhow my mouth and tongue moved

        enthusiastically she nearly smothered me

but I digress 

              unintelligible utterances  Pentecostalists articulate airquotes a natural language  its previously unknown to them  Ooohspooky  xenoglossy  speaking in tongues   Gibberish jabberers 

                                                                                 Christ

Hey now yare staring off into space

I am, I am, only because I’m hanging on every word, looking off I can better concentrate on what you’re saying . . you laid a couple of big words on me, I understand them, however you dont usually hear them pronounced in conversation, usually I read them in a book . . not said . quite the hurtle, man.

But ya followed

I did, I did . . he looked at him  I did.

Either omne trium perfectum or epizeuxis  which one

Too soon, man, too soon, I’m high.

Repeating yourself for emphasis

Ah, I am doing a bit of that.

Its awright

             Yare high

I is. Aye aye, Captain.

So yathink its possible right now since were high that were vocalising fluentlywe understand each other like Pentecostals but people around usif theyre listening think were gibberjabbering 

                                                                                    or speaking Slavic or Yiddish

he tried to staunch his erupting laughter with his lips but spit on him 

                                                                           So sorry, man. he gurgled then gleefully returned to what grew into a full-on belly laugh  how stoners laugh

   1010

         usually hed go with 2210   but he liked the look of 1010 

those who knew him were thrown that he used military time

Areya full of shit its accurateno confusion past noon add twelve ya too lazy to do basic arithmetic too lazy to think  Anit doesnt belong to the military any more than blessed belongs to the church  I use it an theres no way in hell Id consent to a religious implication

he felt in his bones it was after twentytwohunred hours  he just wanted to know exactly wha time it was

he was going to take a cool bath  he sweated through an eighth day of a hunredplus  hed rather lay in his bed cool and clean and let sleep snatch him before he began sweating again

he lit a blue pillarcandle lavenderscented 

it coloured the bathroom underwater

innerspace coalescing with outerspace free movement in any direction 

                                                                         it was disorienting  anthere wasnt anything he liked more than being disoriented

but it got him by the balls tonightstruck music in his head  his soundtrack

for whateverreason this evening his DJ opted to play tunes that were tethered to deaths of families and friends Big Head Todd and the Monsters  Circle Israel Kamakawiwo’ole  medley of Somewhere Over the Rainbow and What a Wonderful World Daniela Andrade  Creep . .   

                                                GET OFF MY BACK

Shaddup

          or Ill throw on some spurs an really dig in  this is topshelf stuff

Theyre on the topshelf to keepem out of the reach of children like medicines poisons hard liquor

Yafound ways to climbup your grandmothers cupboard

My heads not a cupboard

I know Im shakin free cobwebs going to them because yare notwont on yer own Im givin ya a nudge

Im not playinem to be cruel

                             Look woudya  look at all those marvelous memories at play in your eyes 

DJ wasnt being dishonest 

he could see

exquisite montages

Starring

          his loved ones who had died

it was hard to watch them through his tears

 

it was a buddys birthday  if someone years from now asked him what he was doing at 1010 on Sunday 18 July 2021 hed remember 

                  I was taking a cool bath on a hot night remembering music and dancing

he carried on about a beautiful dark woman a Jewess a professional – he didnt say what kind – he met her on-line

on a dating app

                 he didnt ask him which app although he did say from what he hearddigested she was direct

Oh man, yeah, her resume is amazing, like she wrote from an outline.

A resume is that what its called online

Perhaps not, I suppose, it’s what I call it, their statement, they address what they like or dislike, you know, what makes them tick, turns them on, turns them off.

Are they lengthy

Some are, however I prefer brevity, I’d assume brevity is prefe . .

. . Because ya prefer it

Yeah, come on; you like things that go on and on?

An the Jewess Shes obviously got chutzpah

Chutzpah?

Audacious

I know what chutzpah is.

                           And why do you say that?

By what youve related Sounds like her resume asya say  has bullet-points

No, there’s no bullet-points, it’s not bang bang bang.

Sounds bang bang

It isn’t.

Actually it sounds BAMBAM BAM

It’s not.

She sounds like a .44 Magnumlike she knows what she wants an aint a damn thing wrong with that

Well, she is direct.

As directdon take this wrong  as yare wishy-washy

Wishy-washy, are you kidding me?

Bro yawant everyone to like youya donwanna be swiped left  so yare breadcrumbing fear getting ghosted

                      Damocles  Bob

                                           You know the story?

he found it scribbled on the reverse side of a communication from AAA dated August 31, 2015  a reply an apology he demanded from management after he had to call and berate them for applying two checks he sent to one account and threatening his automobile insurance for non-payment

his head wasnt up his ass

                            had it been  he would have realised the unusual visuals 

he wrote  an old Soviet joke – “The future is certain; it is only the past that is unpredictable.”

he wasnt sure where he found it 

he didnt cite where he read it

long passages accompanying the quote were in regards to Ellis Island 

if push came to shove hed guess he found all of them in Fear Itself  Ira Katznelson  but he couldnt say for sure

anif yacant yadon

                        he read too much to keep his pretty maids all in a row sigh

. . . only the past is unpredictable

                                    Aw  the stink of Republican feigned amnesia regarding the Capitol insurrection on January6

“I do solemnly swear that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same . . . So help me God.”

 . . . that was unexpected . .

he heard it

did he say it

Yesss

he heard himself say Yes

That was unexpected . . .

he heard it asif he was far off

 

he didnt try to talkhe knew he couldnt

                                         he thought a laugh bubbled in  That was unexpected then he went black   black  blackeryet

going out onto the porch he caught the amberorangetinged crescent moon just above the hill on the horizon yesterday by dumb luck 

            watched it slipout of the sky a long fearsome orca fin shark fin a moltenredorange dot then the sky where it was went black

a feral cat female he named wee walked on the porch rail before him  he petted her as he watched

                                                                                                        Well girl thank you for the company Well have a date tomorrow night too awright 

his fortune in life was his dumb luck 

Wha time is it to no one

                         Christ he stopped writinglet the pen fall to the page and bolted out of the studio up the hall crossed the livingroom the small game room to the screen door to the porch outside

wee mewed in the dark  he heard her leap up onto the railing

                                                                 he couldnt see herstill had too much light in his eyes

groping for the railingplacing his hand flat on top it she bumped his wrist with her headshe always led with her head

Hey girl wheres the moon he was slightly panicked didnt want to miss it he felt for her petted her abruptly then moved right he couldnt see the moon  furthur right just again there above the distant black hill  Dumb luck he sighed a wroughtiron café chair was between him the end of the porch he steppedup stood on the chair

wee moved down the railing to him but because he was on the chair she was out of reach

it was a deeper marbledamber this evening  the moon took its colour from the smoke in the atmospherefrom the wildfires burning north a bruised scythe teetering on the black hill it sank  a sullen boomerang tuna tail hammerhead dorsal blunted chevron flame then a molten dot then blacknesshaunted by the trail of light in his eyes how fortunate he was

sullenly wee leapt down onto the chair from the railingthe chair rocked she got caught between his feet he shifted them to accommodate her he must have stepped on her tail she lashed outscratched him he jerked his leg awaythe chair rockedhe lost his balancewent over the railing backwardslanded in the gravel around the firepit on the back of his headhis body torqued up snaggedleaned on the raw latticework under the porch
