he asked peopleif they could would they describe how they dream not what they dreamed but rather how

it caused more confusion that he thought

he apologised Here lemme say how I dream

                                               I dream shallow mercurial pools that shiver an squirm like heedless worms I act within them swim on their bellys or over the top of their surfaces I go through doors an panes an cell walls with the liberty of ghosts  I crow nonsensically at fearful shadows some who rather than face me an play commit suicide

that was no help

   roue

          sounds like badsmelling cheese Limburger Pecorinu Hooligan Ardrahan Stinking Bishop  Epoisses  Maroilles Greensward Torta del Casar

Any idea

             Didnt think so

he found it written on a slip of paper  “. . . the roue will die protesting his mistress is pure”

From where

he quoted it so its not his  

Where o whar did he find it a rolling stone collects no moss  he had some digging to do

Paydirt

          O but ofcourse William Cowper Brann  known as Brann the Iconoclast he plucked the phrase from “There is no secret a man will guard with such vigilance as his amours, no copartner in iniquity he will shield with such fidelity as a paramour. The bandit may turn state’s evidence, and the assassin will confess the noose; but the roue will die protesting his mistress is pure as the driven snow.”

Nice nice to know

a debauched man is a roue

                            a rake a rogue a degenerate  if one had coin anasked hed stop to have a drink with them

seems a making of an innarestin time

no freaking idea – likely this century

                                          Middle English from Old English higian strive pant

he hied in the past without knowing he had

                                             Hiyaed because he hadnt time to stop and talk

he cooked the same way                                

                                 evidently

she said Ah, a salmagundi . . excellent.

A wha

Salmagundi. Usually a salad, though you haven’t greens, it incorporates meat, seafood, cooked, raw vegetables; sometimes fruit and nuts.

It has a name Thats nuts

she laughed nice music What do you call it?

Dinner rang like a dull bell

                               I open the fridge see wha I got make something of it Good way of dispatching leftovers in as savory a manner I can muster

                                 If I had to push come to shove Id call it a casserole

I’m looking forward to it.

You wont be disappointed Im as good in the kitchennot baking though as I am in the sack  Might wanna keep that in mind as you eat

Ohmy, you’re terrible.

Get in line seem to rub women that way

                                           Ofcourse goes without saying but I am I wouldnt use it on guys  although Ive fixed dinner for friends he laughed  Boy friends

she laughed because he did

                               Boyfriends? 

No  Boy friends

                 Got a brotherinlaw who cringes when I say boy friends he pushes the nouns together as you did I separate them Who the hell wants to say male friends no colourno spice this way those who want to twist on a line can twist I live by the credo Fuckem if they cant take a joke

What does he call his boy friends? she giggled in spite of herself

Buddies

That’s appropriate.

Neutered

          I say butties more cringeworthy than boy friends

Sounds like you enjoy cringes.

Yes cringes  offcoloured  provocation anything but milquetoast  Are you familiar with Caspar Milquetoast

Caspar Milquetoast?

                        No.  Can’t say I am.

A comic strip character The Timid Soul his creator H T Webster referred to him as the man who speaks softly and gets hit with a big stick

                     An obvious spin on Teddy Roosevelts Talk softly but carry a big stick An iron fist in a velvet glove isnt as appealing to me

My, the webs you weave. Sir Walter Scott.

Yes

Oh what a tangled web we weave when first we practise to deceive. From Marmion . .

. . they spoke over each other  A Tale of Flodden Field

You would not practise to deceive me?

   No

        I definitely want to get in your pants

                                                                                                they werent wellschooled

Ah shit he stood up from the park bench he sat on an walked towards them muttering Nahnahnah shaking his unbrushed woolly head stroking his beard

                                 the first he came upon he rapped on the forehead with a knuckle Ya donwanna keep this up keep it up an someones gonna get hurt they kept it up hed x-ercise them

the boy stepped back rubbing his forehead he was well out front of the others maybe he didnt see he was swinging in the breezerecognise hed take the brunt

                                         That would be a mistake, old man.  

yahoo should have tried to deescalated the situation not try to buy time not provoke him he didnt know his old man raised him that if a fight was eminent throw the first punch

the rap on the skull emitted a soundlike rapping a melon  it suggested he didnt have a bonehead he drove his fist between his eyes lights went out  

the several behind him paused tentative is not good in a fight

                                                                    he bullrushed them howling

they scattered

Dammit gawddammit

                       frosted his fanny only one would paid for their mistake

he shook his head they wouldnt learn anything wouldnt see the error of their ways these kids wouldnt see they were wrong

he turnedwalked away

                         he walked a bit before he realised he was singing softly  Yubby dibby dibby dibby dibby dibby dibby dum all day long Id biddy biddy bum if I was a wealthy man

                                                                       he laughed hard out loud

he finally understood wha biddy biddy bum meant even though he wasnt a wealthy man

  therapy

 

                 didnt work out for people he knew more suicides than saves the remaining were midwater debris floating indiscriminately undetermined  between the shores

these results made him wonder if therapy wasnt a vulgar theory

                                                                     he tagged it theorapey

theorape tempted him but rape doesnt ask consent so he tucked it away in his sock drawer next to girlie magazines to use when people are forced into therapy by the state

damn the river of time since it was impossible to dam 

                                                           he conceded everyone had to take what they got

an irksome howl betrayed this one slice of many years a near-physicalmadness crowdedcrowed till its end

                                                                                                                it had begun so clean bright innocent

                          then fell quickly apart tattered dysfunction like rotting cloth

Who Will Save Your Soul https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0wBDDAZkNtk  a real jewel

Who would bother

dated Sunday, 6  11. 16  it appeared he jotted down quickly his handwriting was rushed  How to save your soul

Aaah he remembered 2016

                              his handwriting wasnt rushedhe could barely hold a pen

the doc a specialist a rheumatologist called it RA

                                                  which was no fucking help Yah Don know what that is    

doc ogled him like he was from outer space a twoheaded alien bluntly Rheumatoid arthritis

You could have said that doc he was not fond of acronyms

                                                                But I got disagree  The questionnaire we just completedI was watching  you didnt listen to melisten to my answers  ya heard wha ya wanted to hear scored me eleven of thirteen descriptors eight more than I would agree I exhibit   As I told you

the ogle returned

                   I believe I know better than you do, young man.                                                            

I believe you believe you do but you don inhabit my body  You believe I exhibit eleven ailments to three Id agree with you on

ogle went glare

doc ignored himexplained hed provide him a prescription after he went to the hospital to determine baselines for his organs

Baselines 

           he asked the top of the his head because he was notating his file

Excuse me? wasnt listening again off in his own hewed little world

Baselines

Yes. The medication could affect some of your internal organs; not that it necessarily will mind you.

To alleviate my pain an sleeplessness

doc was handing him the referral to the hospital

                                                   To hopefully heal you or create a more comfortable stasis.

Well doc for my sake the sake of my organs Ill figure out how to mitigate my pain without poisoning myself

                                                                                                               Youll excuse me if I don thank you for your time  Your fee ought to be thanks enough

he stood and left the doc squatting on his stool

 

2016 that was a real tough year

                                     he came out the other side with minimal impairment

Who will save your soul

                          Take a good look in the mirror

Falsus in uno falsus in omnibus

                                 Latin  false in one thing false in everything

nothing more need be said

                           although he was curious what the name was of a person who follows a liar

Wikipedia he doesnt often utilise it:

                                   “The Washington Post said in January 2020 that (the Former) had made more than 16,241 false or misleading claims as president, an average of about 14.8 such statements per day. The Toronto Star which said that, as of June 2019, (the Former) had made 5,276 false statements since his inauguration.”
