The Monster (Refusing to kick any habit) - "
This is what happens when you fall asleep nestled against the cold skin of your lovely television.
tickled by the static shock of a million needle p-ricks overcome by the breaking waves of words, colors and laughter.
The T.
V protects us.
The T.
V winds us down to sleep.
winds us down to sleep.
Bones grow calmer, smiles widen to an almost unnatural size.
turn away.
Close your eyes.
from all of us here in T.
V land, to all of you out-there...
Good Night.
Good Night.
Good Night"

And in the thick electric cloud of your coma, the gamma rays slip inside to open you.
climbing up on your cheeks and lifting up your eyes like a circus tent.
sneaking inside.
finding you naked in the gray matter and dragging you up, calling you up to come worship or be ridden by God.
Come open your eyes to the binding light.
Come or get ridden.
You can look up to the place where the sun used to be and watch the blades spins.
The Blades spin.
The dishwashers shake, stainless steel, NASA engineered, blades spin.
PRESTO!, IT SLICES CHUNKS!
FRUITS, VEGETABLES, CHEESE AND MORE, AND YOU RUN YOUR FINGER THROUGH A BRAIN THAT ISN'
T THERE ANYMORE, AND PERFECTLY SLICED CUCUMBER WEDGES, BAPTIZE YOU IN THEIR CRISPY NEWNESS RAINING DOWN FAITH UPON THE THIRSTY SKEPTICS UNTIL IT SMASHES THEM, UNTIL IT BURNS!"

Last night, I slept outside by the pond.
It was beautiful.
So clear...
the stars...

R's Memories of his mother speaking over the phone while he was pretending to sleep)- "
He went to church and he started to have nightmares.
This morning he said, he had a dream of how this world was going to end...
it wasn't any good.
He said, he couldn't go on making his art, it didn't express his ideas.
He's only 6.
