decided
to be normal today, what does
that mean.
nighttime writing for little poots means Idol is on tv
eyelids are droopy, the house is quiet,
panic sets in, nighttime is not for
writing
visitors to my office
made a happy girl
back to work today.

wise questions about
growing up; i could write a blog about it.
"do you like your
job" "do you think you get
paid enough"
she has figured out which questions to ask.

wakey
wakey
not so bakey.
hibernation takes
over.
a five dollar bag,
vietnamese shrimp,
a
frozen
Swiss
boyfriend,
four
hundred
and twenty
dollars from
Maxi,
four
hundred
dollars of heating,
many things i
could
chronicle
here,
i
try to sum
them up
i pick great
apartments.

and you and a
pile of bills.
how far
does being timeless take
you
my alert

more
sleep still.
even adults want
what they
can't have who knew
like me
how fun
to
acknowledge and
understand
something so
important:
watch
it poots, wait
it poots, you
can own it, you
just didn't know
you had to.
and
how
many know
this, in all
my wisdom, am
i so dumb?
have i
overlooked
basics in the
face of the complex?
has
he?
pcidss: we get
jiggy with what
angered us
when we realize
it gives us
power.

more
sleep.
days sometimes
float by,
in between jolts of caffine, summer
comes,
the pot ticks
bodies age,
love grows, and the
endless fears that
are,
sneak
through the
cracks to rear
their ugly
little heads.
my
own words ring
constantly
through my own
head,
words
and actions
intertwined
with lyrics,
coffee, and
groceries,
well
is there any
more to
life than
those three
things?
so
we think about
what is
common;
actually we
don't;
and
this is the
real miracle
of love, actually
we don't.
we just do.

a
snowy world, scant sleep, caffeine might help,
eggs boiling at six twenty two am.
the
snow is whiter than the sky,
piled high, on every surface
known to man.
caffeine, in
tepid form, thru my
lips, chewing,
nourishment, brain freeze.
reconcilliation comes in many forms.

two birthdays,
two broke.
seven thirty three and
poots will write her way through her
thoughts this morning
without puncuation
without parking and without you my
frame of forty five kilograms sits
and stares and sips
there's
a beep there's a cardinal
theres hungry guineapigs and
then theres me

not
sure why a physical tell all is degratory but alas.
valentines day came and went; expectations
were met, exceeded
and not, all in one fell swoop of red,
these are the days we will
survive.
early awake on a
friday, rock-empty
head, another late
dinner, ringing ears,
heart
in your hands, when
all else fails,
pray.

without degenerating completely into a
physical tell-all,
poots would like to
mention that these physical cells
move in a world bound
completely by physics
including dimensions
like time, yet we
have so little real
understanding of these boundaries.
and lifting my
mug, i all
of a sudden understand
the field that the
earth pulls on it,
albeit heavier before
6.
is that
how he interacts
with the world
constantly...............wow,
...... no
wonder he
can't focus,
that would be
distracting.
but the physicality of
which i speak
has less to do
with
physics and forces,
nor with the
gravitational
pull on my aging
body.
it feels like
the
home-stretch,
some are
marathoning, others
gyming, for
anyone who's
still alive
it's a
choice between
television or
life;
and
then there's
the third and
fourth
category, one
is me flailing
about and the
other one needs
a nobel
prize.
dreamt that my
father took us
on a large
ship to
toronto, in
the dark and
stopping at
familiar
landing
points.
maybe my ship
hasn't sailed
yet.

i used to look forward to mid
cycle, outward mode, social
mindset;
but now,
as poots' physical cell heads
towards it's own midcycle,
she looks
towards early cycle,
signs
of youth, fullness
of otherwise empty
breasts,
and anything which
reminds her she's
still a woman.
the smell of his
early and fresh-shaved
face lingers on
my
lower right
cheek,
i can rub it
over my nose,
pungent
after coffee,
the memory of
his deep
breaths into
my hair,
before coffee,
these are only
wafts of
reality.
now, as the
gray landscape
of the
backyard
lightens into
day,
and
as the
caffeine drips
into my veins,
one can almost
wonder if he was real
this
silent man
moving in the
dark
without him,
is there a
woman here at
all.

poots
squirrels in the orange room; facing
inward, in more ways than
one, while the person who is the male is left with only erotic
thoughts.
(can you say that in the mEp)(will i get
fired for speaking openly)(what the heck
would Frankie say)(Poots slept 10 hours)
a real snob is
indifferent to your accomplishments; doesn't
placate you with niceties and
cannot hide his disdain. that's okay. i don't
mind. there was a time when i did, but at this
point in my life, i honestly
don't give a
fuck. and that feels good.

i abhore
suckiness or
can snobbery
be defined
in a vacuum?
but there are
levels of abhoring suckiness. and this is
because there are varying levels of
suckiness.
there's the guy who is a
brainiac but refuses to follow protocol
because he assums his brainiacness is better.
then
there's the guy who ain't too brite,
is really good at following protocol but doesn't have the
wherewithall to make a decision for
himself.
these
are both counterproductive
but neither mean that they are
snobs. we
could bring German
translation into the
mixture.
snobbery;
elitism;
entitlement;
indifference;
oh yeah, i'm milking this
one.

words,
actions, my
essence and
your essence.
what weighs
on a balance
and when the
balance
tips... how do
you when to
right it
again.....

physicalness
overpowers mEppishness, mind yoga balances
with nether regions; throbbing each.
teency
snow falls always remind me of the
Grace family from more than thirty
years ago. along with
recent words
imprinted "she looks nice" and how
important can words be
when imprinted in a
memory.
and still, matter
over mind, poot's
physicalness
trumps any logic
here, as the caffeine
slowly opens
the
arteries
leading into
the cranium,
slowly brings
in the world
around her,
and slowly but
surely
reviives
the
tiny frame of
flesh and
bones pushing
toward
tomorrow.

february 1 2013
there was no choice. some days, there are words on a paper
which simply cannot be spread here.
why is that. frankie?
blatant bragging;
purity; honesty; sincerity; in the
face of all else; is not allowed in
this world. context is always there,
always relevant.
words cannot be spoken in a vacuum; a
man who wants to kiss a woman; michel buble is one;
there is at
least one other; should forgiving
be part of loving; eric
segal said no, but, i'm not
so sure.
poots, foot-tapping to
heart melting music,
hits the repeat button
to
extend her morning
void, her morning
peace, she does
this voluntarily
and with great
deliberation. grab
fourteen moments.
fill them up. with
words, with songs,
with every word that
can be written.
carousel,
wishing well, ring
my bell,
mystery,
outerspace,
every minute
of every day).
the biggest
mystery of all
is right here and
now,
and it's the field
that cannot be
measured, the
one which
continues to warp
my space,
symmetry be
dammed.
