Scifi Fifties giant ants film Arizona

                                     Made me not want to go to Arizona despite the allure of Arizona Highways magazine

    I don’t know.

                           Blackanwhite  They were giant due to ABomb explosions an radiationwrong New Mexico Still Never been 

But still a hitch in my gittup regarding Arizona 

Wonder how I confused them

    Desolation    Possible

                             But then Ive always wanted to go to the moon

Canya beat tha

I’m about ready to beat youwhat about ant . . acid . . . to be precise.

Ants use formic acid formicines as defence  communication a pheromone as I like to say pheromoan to warn other insects of danger an alarm pheromoan using formic acid and Dufours gland secretio . .

. . You’re killin’ me.

    Almost there

                   To mark trails to recruit as a repellent also enjoys antimicrobial properties to disinfect their brood an against fungal pathogens

Of course fingers crossed they don cross Ophiocordyceps unilateralis

Are you kiddin me?

You know it

I don’t.

         And I may not want to . .

. . Ohya gotta just gonna say

                                 Its a fungi that infects an ant turns it into a fullfledged zombie

Yes Virginia there are zombies

Yes Virginia there is a Santa Claus

    No.

No Santa or no Virginia

Virginia.

Yaborn under a rockChrist

                             Though on second thought probably a safe place forya so youre not turned into a zombie by fungi

The Last of Us

rubber actually got sucked down into the hungry earth like linguine Would you . please . . just say?

    Turns out my cats went apeshit inside over my flipflops tha I crushed ants sweeping them asideaway from Roberts kibble

The Staircase on MAX

                        Ohwow startled him  Have you ever heard anything so honest

Wha . what are you talking about?

Were watching the same show

Well, obviously I wasn’t impressed.

Did you hear

Hear?

       What did you hea . .

. . Thawas so freakin honestStop the show she was the keeper of the remote  misplaced it once and found it under the kitchen sinkgobsmacked hasnt misplaced it since

                                              stopped it

Awright You said you heard

Yes.

The subject matter they were discussing waswha

Their father’s sexuality.

His bisexuality

                    And him exercising his homosexuality outside his marriage to their mother who their father firmly insisted had accepted

But shes dead

They have to take his word for it

It’s their father.

Like fathers don lie

                    Like mothers brothers sisters aunts uncles cousinsmost everyone walkinround on a pair of legs ass parked in a wheelchair laidup in bed

    You expect people to lie.

I expect they served their best interests Some are acquired easier by lying ansince theyre the product they do not have to produce fine print or reveal their side effects

I can’t believe you just said that.

                                       Do you think I lie?

Not to me

Not to you?

Not to me

             Because you know the ramifications

I woudnt lie to youput off stave one moment of being uncomfortable being honest with you

Truth can be ugly can be hurtfu . .

. . And you don’t pull punches.

As Ive said as you know

    So what did I miss or didn’t impress me as much as it impressed you?

His sister wants to talk with her father about his sexuality

Yes.

He said Yeah, you want to have that conversation?

                                                         I’ll be one hundred miles away.

Terribly honest

                   Not necessarily right but  terribly honest

cats and ants

               if not pluralised   wouldnt be fourletter words  for lots of people

he liked catsloved cats

                         they were one in the same

could be affectionate

                       werent

he tolerated ants when he could

                                  but when they crossed him he was a Titan as when Titans swept mankind away savaged them

ants that people were

they surrounded Roberts empty plate at the foot to the porch

                                                                  a few kibble lay on the concrete apron

to their credit ants  are exploitive

imagined in their world waste not want not wasnt an axiom

                                                                 a dogma

he appreciated that

                       however   appreciative

he still took a broom to themswept them aside flipped them with his flipflops

                                                                                 THERE   then GONE

holocaust

satisfied like a vanquishing God

                                     he stepped back into the house

sat at his desk to write letters he had to

    his three cats became a barrage at his feeta knot under the desk at his flipflops

                                                                                       Whadafuck

he tried to pushed them away with his feethands  they were having no part of it

finally

        rolled back  kicked his flipflops aside

they were on them

oblivious of him

What The Fuck

he walked out of the house

                             standing on the porch he looked over the estates back grounds hard to call it a yard dominated by an artful deep swimming poolsurrounded by varied patios  stripgardens   trellises

one particular trellis attracted his attention

                                              was backed by a blunt freestanding slagbrick wall  once part a dairy barn  otherwise  the whole razed

it was streaked by flickering wall torches

their backs to him  

                     a clutch  an arc of men

he was curious what their focus was

he went down the porch steps to flagstone pavers pebbles between  strode to the knot

looking between headsshe happened to look past the men nearest her to where he was

                                                                            Well look at you.

laughing he slipped through her admirers

                                            Look at you  stepped facetoface  not really

It has been awhile.

My pixie with big tits men suddenly discombobulated as if her tits werent big   werent a presence

Aww. she mewed  Wish I could say the same.

No yacant But you preferred my dandy loquaciousness   lapping cream

she didnt blink

                  As charming as ever.

he said to the surrounding mensuddenlyneutered  desexualised   shit out of luck

                                                                                          Churmed her 

one muttered better than a forebodingsigh  Churmed?

watching her  she was amusedenjoying their tit for tat

                                                           Churmed  Yes   Christ  to her You

she laughed gayly

                         Churmed.  Churned.

Yes I did

            Churmed the cream to savory sweetbutter

Id pretend you were asleep an try not to wake you.

 

 

    soaked in a hot bath

                          lookingup at the large showerhead  its shadow on the wall into the corner

the shadow moved subtly

Curious he thought

                    Hmmm    took a deep breath  blew up into the corner

it moved

spider web  shadow cast on it

                                    hadnt seen the spider in a weekweekanahaf   appleseed on occasion went missing tendays twoweeks then returned

hed give this one a few more days before taking it downhe braked

              you dont want to hit a thought

be thoughtless

                not to mention  a thoughts sometimes just the tip of the icebergcould fuckin ruin you  come through the windshield centipedemillipede legs thrashing in its death throes

                                                                    shredding you

if not killinya outright with its bulk

    the thought  was about the web

was about a web networkwere the spiderwebs throughout the house   interconnected  nerves  axonwired neuronweb to neuronweb

               maybemaybe  the spider abandoned its abovethetub web for the new art he hung on his livingroom wall that had caused consternation among the very few with who he shared it

                                                                               its halo  aura
