theres nothing as quiet or thoughtful as a vacant school  a school closed for the summer the building like a tombstone its wideeyed windows invoking memorieskisses in clothes closets corners stood in dunce caps coercion writing I will not . . . on blackboards onehundred times its repetition making the violation mute  instilling it  boys usuallymen always cant read the not it drops like a yellow leaf withering on a green plant I will not pull Betsy’s ponytail  she shouldnt have had her thick mane pulled back and enticing she knew what she was asking for when she brushed it back and tied it off with coloured yarn
                        later in high school they played  he yanked her ponytail in the back of a parked car

some people never learn their lessons


versus a vacant school cemeteries were louder

he didnt mean to compare the dead to teaching the dead well actually   yahhedid  he meant the comparison  current events civics werent taught any more kids picked them up off social feeds unassigned usually mutilatedtwisted lying a bone to pick a cause to rally by whatever means possible 
                                                                     honesty  truth  its casualties

but when ones driving home a point they use whatever tools are at their disposal to drive the nail discretion be fucked  If you ain’t cheating, you ain’t trying hard enough.

if he ever ran into the shithead who coined that meme hed shove it up his or her ass  and twist it 

Ben Franklin Honesty is the best policy
                                           although Thomas Jefferson wrote in a letter to Nathaniel Macon who? Honesty is the first chapter of the book of wisdom


we have drifted perilously far from humane reasoned considerations

it seems only avarice compels us to wag our tongues
                                                         truth be damned

he texted his daughter

:  :  Arrived in Phoenix bathroomHA! possibly too much fiber in my diet yesterday

theres an upside to everything if you dont get too caught up in the moment if you bide your time look around

he discoveredsitting there on the public pothis bowels humming “Go Greyhound and leave the driving to us” 

Of course

No sense fightin city hall city hallyes  not his bowels


he discoveredsitting on the public pot when he looked right  the toilet paper dispenser shoulder height seemed placed a mite bit high if a kid was on the squat he might not be able to reach the tucked-up toilet paper an attendant with a sense of humour then a shifta sudden movement below caught his eye  someone was quiet in the stall beside him

he looked down

beneath the edge of the stall partition he could see the occupants left shoe

a nice leather shoe 

a tied-up two-tone brown-tan Oxford

Very nice

Chic
     look at him monetising footwear

then he thought Ah whadahell and looked to his left to the grunting gentlemans right shoe it was going to be there no one gives birth without the feet widespreadknees apart

the shoe intruded into his stallGRUNT  no footsie

another nice pair of shoes! he wasnt in the company of common Joes

nice to know though not only do they put on their pants one leg at a time but they shit too

he could have been embarrassedhe wore flipflops
                                                   he wasnt


he hadnt considered this entertainment before a new game to play while traveling a new game beyond patented people watching

WHAT GREAT FUN! 
                     better fun than playing inane games on smartphones


then his imagination played with himposed  Yathink well ever shit beside a clown Gaze down at his big clowny shoes toeing into our space 
                         Can we stomp

We can stomp he hoped they wouldnt be wearing flipflops if that were the case

transparent Trump



“Did you hear what she said about me long before I went after her, didn’t you hear? She made horrible statements, she knows they’re not true, she made she said terrible things, so I just responded in kind.”  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g0gaSh7ErqA

the TSA agent walked up on him

he voluntarily requested a pat down 
                                      he wasnt sheephe wouldnt walk into a machine that its manufacturer attested was safe he remembered other despicable manufacturers company managements who declared their products safe their cigarettes their oil their opiods and all the while winking and noddingsniffing back laughter modifying their products to attract addict their consumers Miserable fuckingreedy bastards Gawddamn liars  and he particularly remembered the politician who pushed cajoled ramrodded the legislation for their adoption that they become mandatoryrequired  that they would help assure safe air travel in the New World  the congealing Homeland Fatherland Muthaland 

legislation passed 

the politician left Congress to sit on the scanners board for a fat chunk of change



the TSA agent was obviously sweating  he muttered Christ  
                                                              apparently annoyed he hadnt follow the herdhadnt taken the clue not to stand alone stand oblivious to the mainstream

he said Good morning

Yeah. TSA used the back of his gloved hand to wipe a trickle of sweat from his temple Good morning.

Busy morning this morning

Busier than I thought it was going to be. Almost hectic.

he looked at the line it was proceeding smoothly  everyone was following orders 

he was the only hitch in the gittyup

TSA snapped his blue latex glove at the wrist

the wrist didnt snap it splittore down into the palm of his hand

he didnt say FUCK although his eyes screamed it Aw, man, I’m sweating like a pig.

Glovesll heat you up

They do he said yanking at the torn glove 

it stuck to his flesh like glue Fer Christssake.

Youre a better man than me I hate wearing gloves . .
. . I do too, but it pays the bills.

Gotta pay your bills

Gotta eat.

he stripped off the ruptured glove

he struggled to slip a fresh one on

once he donned it he paused  Hmm. I think . . as he said that he pulled a swab out of its sterile container and began wiping the palm and fingers of the glove containing his obviously dominant right hand . . I think I don’t want to finger you.

Finger me

Yah. You’d be surprised the contaminants we pick up off of shoes and bags, the luggage we handle . . we have no idea where we picked them up. But they’re there.

Contaminants 

Yes.

Contaminants that would point  to me

Yes.

he placed the swab in the machine


moments later it buzzed the test failed

Man, good thing I swabbed my glove before patting you down. he struggled to pull the clinging glove from his sweaty hand 

Good thing  A good thing because it failed  I didnt

Had I patted you down, swabbed, it failed; you would have failed.


he didnt answer 

he let TSAs remark hang in the air

a pregnant pause



I would have failed

Yes.

Youre pretty casual about that 

What would have followed

We, I, would have had to detain you; further scrutinised you, gone through your belongings.

Because of your error

We wouldn’t know it was our error.


You said prior to swabbing you didnt want to finger me

I did. I didn’t want to finger you. That’s why I checked, why I swabbed the glove.

But you could have


I could have.

You wouldn’t have known the difference.



I do now

You do.

If I ever fail my pat down Ill challenge it You might see this is cold comfort

I do.

Cold comfort But a perk

Perk?

Yes

I didn’t mean it as a perk. I meant next time you might want to be more efficient, use the scanner, it’s less invasive.

Less invasive because you know that   Or you were told that

Because it makes things more fluid.

Fluid

Ill say this as Brad Pitts character said in the film A River Runs Through It . . 
. . Good film . . 
. . Then we have something in common He tells his brotheryou might remember Ill never leave Montana

Ill never submit to be scanned

They could make it mandatory.


Id drive

our Rose Garden briefly smelled like dogshit

mebbe he stepped in ithad it on the bottom of his shoe his heel certainly not his sole

“I’m the most transparent president probably in the history of this country.” 
                                                                                his transparency was preceded by his continuing attempt to coopt his audience  to infer that their polite quiet attention meant they believe as he said  “Well it turns out I’m the most, and I think most of you would agree to this, I’m the most transparent president . .”   

mebbe he prefers not to recognise that most of his Rose Garden audience was FAKE NEWS  “enemies of the people”  or mebbe he was only addressing his attendant sycophants  

the camera angle precluded the audience

ending his remarks he turned his back on them and walked away off camera a reporter cried ”Mr. President! Mr. President! Have you read the Mueller Report? Mr. President, have you read the Mueller Report?”


“I don’t do cover-ups. You people know that probably better than anybody to my way of thinking, and I know a lot of you agree with me, the crime was committed on the other side.”



he had to agree with Drumpf 
                               his transparency is obvious  
hes twinned the word 

theres the transparency many would assume refers to his political and administrative doings

but theres perhaps an unassumed transparency  how he acts in public lies in public obstructs in public

that was the transparency he believes the FAKE PRESIDENT chooses

oddly  he synched D-Day June 6, 1944 with his daughter
                                                           they were incongruous at best

D-Day was seventyfive years agomore than twice her age

her connexion was through her great-uncles who fought in the war 

they were all dead now

they never talked about the war 
                                  unless they talked amongst themselves during family picnics at Lake Michigan at lakes in Indiana Ohio and Michiganstanding around a picnic table to place their sweating tin beer cans the whisky bottle they pulled at  shared

when they gathered to a side the children were chased away by the aunts

he was chased away

his daughter only knew them as old men  they were kind to her



her synchow she synched with the thousands who died June 6, 1944  Allied forces  Germans   thousands  the surf and sand tinted with their bloodtheir minced flesh shattered bones 
                                                                       she synched with a remark she made that took his breath awayforming a huge smile on his face because it occurred to him that she thought as he did

she said JesusChrist woudja SHADDUP! I’m trying to enjoy the ride.

Out of the mouth of babes

her remark was in regards to an aircraft failure if she were inside it the plane was going down despite the pilots best efforts 

she wouldnt have knowingly taken the ride but now that she was committedhad no choice or option Well, fuck, might as well enjoy it, huh? Enjoy the last moments of my life.

fear can be tempered

why be hysterical


nobody gets out of Life alive

from a sparse median separating traffic a water tap rose up out of the ground like a snake rearing to strike it wasnt aware of its elemental nature  
                             and heastonished  having come too close agilely had to sidestep the tap as it struck at him he pinned its head to the scrabble to the yellow grass with his foot

he couldnt afford to let his amazement rise  he felt it trying to twistwrestle itself from out under his arch anif he hadnt grasped it behind its head when he did it would have freed itself
                                                                    otherwise there wasnt anything serpentine about it 

it moved it might have wanted to thrash like a stout sapling  haltingly  stubbornly yielding to a brisk wind at the head of a storm front

it writhed stiffly


he felt bad for its circumstances but he had no manner or way to express his sympathy

if he dropped it he felt it would exercise its outrage against himlash out as he was convenient 

he couldnt assume anything mammalian existed in it nothing mammalian wrapped around its reptilian brain

                imagine   the oddity mixing inside his skull like a lava lamp gone roguegone hallucinogenic its wiggling clots roiling oil heated glass threatening to meltto spatter its componentsits very self on his bonybricked concave that formed to protect him protect him from without not from within                                                       

not from within . . .


not from within . . 
                   he understood that what was within him had always been his greatest threatthat there was no gulf between what was real or what could be realthat what was improbablewhat was impossible always remained possible 

Im probable
             Im possible
                    
he didnt need drugs to mindfuck himself

as he went to use a city librarys urinal he heard someone come into the restroom behind him yank open a stall door drop his drawer and squat noisily onto a toilet 

it was quite the production

but apparently – as he urinated – the production tripped over its big feet 
                                                                          the production commenced to grunt and groan and used blow to prevent pushing which he learned in birthing classes in the last century 
he found himself inadvertently Kegel-ing to the gruntsgroans 

he figuredpossibly his reaction might be associated contemporary like yawning when someone else yawns he was usually considerate he wouldnt go so far as to say compassionate but his consideration chaffed became irritate  couldnt he who squatted in the stall some stalls over from the urinal he used have waited a minuteanahalf longer before coming in obviously he wasnt shitting anytime soon

as he washed his handslistening to the titan battle he thought to say out loud  For all your labours you better name it when youve finished

rather 
       he thought he thought it
he hadnt realised he had until he heard his voice echo off the paleblue tiled walls  he understood ceramic was easier to clean than a surface that was baffled or absorbed sound 

Oh well he thought  then he thought and he thought it often  it was a good thing he had been an athlete throughout school and college he had become somewhat inured to locker room sounds and smells sights

rather
       true be known  he would have preferred listening to Low Anthems Wire

on the 101 north of Buellton California he drove into a heavy rainstorm that in turns were infested with bouts of hail

he said it out loud so he wouldnt forget to tell his daughter  Ive been through hail and back to get here

shed laugh 

she got him

as profane or as sexual he was she knew him to be the man he was

he never pulled any punches with either of his girls


he was driving to LA to spend precious time with his family indeed   precious    with other family members they all knew it but never spoke of it they acquiescedsubmitted  they did the familial obligation  which was something akin to being born with an unusual birthmark  but not too unusual or obvious that youd spend money to have it removed 

Take a deep breath 

Fratricide or sororicide could be pricey  

so hed rather endure



Ive been through hail and back to get here

                                                     but there wasnt anything he wouldnt do for them
