indigo
indigo children was a modern american new age myth concerning the new
cyborgs. she kissed one and he kissed her back, quickly into the
taxi, in thanks, before the fog of sleep would come over everything.
he was not indigo, but inbetween, like she. late seventies births 77,
as she was, not to kiss her brother on the cheek, such was it meaning
kissing anyone in the cold town. but close she came to his red beard
and said, i want to help you. i am not well, he said. words spoken
am ill. she knew. she repeated, i want to help you. walking away
the masculine crowd puffed their tobacco full to the brim of words and
peermanship.
i stopped her to say, i love you, i love. it was her voice, her
radiance her thinness that i love. the starved way she clung to the
and the life. and then the voice recognized me. little was it he

truth it holds.
there is nothing else i care for but to hear its wordless song. and
my future.

the snow
the snow covered everything, safer it was than israel. she awoke
thinking of the lotus song and “i froze up.” more could she love no,
strength.
she froze up too before, and in fact had frozen up, completely towards
the whole world, more than once, and especially, this winter.
he took her to the hearth of his gentleness, warmed her briefly, when

she might care for the humans of guantanamo being tortured. or the
smog filled lungs of the new jersey fur coat wearing industrialists.
she cared for the cold puppy tied up outside, or the rabbit in the
snow. she cared for the fish in the tank at the sushi restaurant.
but she did not care for life itself, or others, or herself, enough
to give way to love. easy it might be to despise what technology had
done to us.
so many ghosts of shadows of internet followed us around the world
the suicide bomber hit the city the day she arrived. calmly she
thought, how lucky, how bourgeois, how shielded they are, the snow
clearly it arose in her mind how deeply poisoned by america she was.
wonderful and bizarre. america was bubble gum and abu ghraib.
facebook was sanitizing the weirdness from the world. online dating
followed raver culture as some desperate way to feed the hunger for
other humans.
who shook the hornets nest. more attracted to women than men, or
with life, with feeling. how to go on, what might be gained. if new
she had found a home and a future. she would outstay her welcome.
she arose in the night, anxious to feel the eyes of curious natives
upon her. she needed technology, and had more hunger for it than
humans. it was as a child she craved picture books, and magical
kind, that she wondered after how to become more like him, daily.
from the stage he called her soul sister. and the meaning of it
was confusing. the last time she saw him felt like perhaps the last
had made them plainly twain two branches of the same tree. that she
might grow this way or that, could not sever the uniqueness of their

cleansing
she let the rain, the acid rain fall over her, marching into the
cool air, not cold enough to approximate the coldness of her soul.
the blithe heat and comfort of bourgeois america kept her scrubbing
salt into her skin, and facts into her mind. something flipped like
every day the earth was more full of pollution. everyday humans were

into the plastic keys and popmusic. everday was a new trip to the
sweatshop for another pretty sweater. the saab grenade boys in line
ahead. as though saab did not mean swastika. she was walking with an
odd saunter, her arms dangling, slowly creepy on the identical earth.
somewhere between waking and sleep, she was vertical. it was his pain
she loved, his no, his denial, his yes and simultaneous no. he was
the end of men. she might chase him there, to the end of the world to
greet him. this time she might demand a hug. she had come all this
way.
and in his honesty he could not squeeze out another drop of energy
for her. it were better the honesty. but deep in his “i am not well”
she felt the luxury of his confidence. and then he says, its amazing
that you are here. indeed. she expect thorns and schrapnel, a
crucifixion. and left there in the middle of herself, she was nothing
again, no one. the pain of his confidence was nothing again. except
she could never hear him again the same. it was clear that the earth
held his gold presence. he played, and every night she felt him,
across the burning earth. no place was adequate to her hunger. her
eyes were growing larger and more desperate. nothing fit. she did
not belong.
the indigo spent rainboys inside her heart. he renewed her, confused
her. but the elder, he was, he was the greatest ape, with the biggest
she would move down to her fiance, and soak up the smog, and vodka.
she wanted alcohol, more than anything. but found the trials of
stockholm spat diesel in her face. every day the earth was more
her brazil nuts rumbled through her ruinous innards. she dedicated
them to him. that she might live another two months, when so meanly
she wished to hunker down and die, and cling to the grey wall, and
starve away, motionless. her filthy skin craved acids and lies.
there was no future anymore. all that was left, was the kiss on
arrival, he felt the passion behind it, and more the toil of love and
faith and constancy. he felt the love spit in her face, as was it to
him. and there, in her sacrifice for all, he gave her the timeliest,
formula. he did not know she would chase them north. she wanted a
only word in coils and print. she felt it decorate the walls.
and then he might play. and suddenly the heart would feel more
eachother. put pennies were tight these days, for love among slaves.
she felt money flowing in and out of her chapped lips. it was
all illusion. her fingers were numb. she was worried it was the
orange juice. that had been years now, the undisappearing act.
november cut her down. he was stuck her in her throat all the time.
his eyes, his hands on her hair. the pain in her eyes was a mirror of
his own. if only he would hold her, and help her eat. who knows what
happened to his actual love. she glanced around the room, willing
to step out, she imagined a heart more broken than hers. she had no
another musical blitz was just a hit of whippets before the spun out
opium drag.
she worried of returning penniless and near dead. she might work.
she might one day care. but likely, she imagined penury. she
his love had carved the last remaining bits of her humanity away.
she was empty in her heart, her belly, her cavities up and down,
only. she felt her brain might work more with more food, but nothing
to stockholm. she might climb into the straw haired boys arms. she
she was busy avoiding them. she was at the end. she so many lovers
she could not say and none of them had done what he did. none of
them canceled the past, stopped time. none cost this much. none sent
her across the world, empty and foolish. no one could respond. the
cultural differences were vast. she felt a needle in his arm once.
but he might be a christian monogamist, how would she know, they never
discussed it. she was sick. he was sick too. she would hold him
she was sleeping her hungry life away again. why not.
she’d have coffee in the morning and read about about the government.
love slipped out sometimes. if only he would let her spill her love
perhaps his real love was richer than life. perhaps he loved her
afterall.
and painfully chills overtook her to think, this would be the last
time seeing him, for months, close to a year, with luck if that. he
would not scoop her up. he wanted to be alone. sadly so did she, she
so. that all she might need might be a steady hand with no drama or
glamor.
ch 5
the taxicab dropped her off like hearse. the voice of him was aged.
and what if this were the last time. what if she lost her concern.
there was no love, in their hunger. honor it was, such, that she might
feather his mind with her extravagance. not because she thought she
had any hope, but to see him, quite a miracle itself. but she wanted
it to sink into his soul for days or weeks or years, that someone
followed him to the ends of the earth for a goodbye. he was oracular.
and so after that, after loving god, what next. she could not take
to never touch a man again. she wanted to feel her body wither up
why were you so good to me once, when i wanted nothing and you gave.
she thought, he should not have . . . except then she would think,
but it was the most wonderful thing in her life. it was the only
actually. everything else was nothing. he was the last man near
her. and then his mate took the first brotherly kiss. the first kiss
from a man.
she had had lovers plenty, casual, distracted and confused pairings.
easily she burnt them off, their memories. he stuck in her like a
thorn. no one else could touch her. they might only then rub him in.
all of the world was a smog tank. she wanted out, but there was
nowhere to go.
every moment she felt her brain dying a little more, as the smog

were dry as crackers crunching around them, oozing out of their pores
days to understand. that he had smiled at her and waved. she was
paralyzed by her fear and seriousness. when she could speak, she
ellicited his honest appraisal. joy had no place there. she was so
hungry finally.
you don’t have to understand. one does. you came to heal. the
ground is still. deep in the the digital ticking. the earth was
spinning to knock you off your feet. you need not worry.
maybe she came to tell him, never again. stay true to her, as i am
true to you.
so true. her trueness terrified her. seventy eight days it had been
since she felt his hands near her. long, long, ugly days.
so was love. and also in his love came esteem, deep in his esteem,
and the catalogue of his collector’s mind, she felt a dusty thing, on
way into framtid, zukunt. they were holding on to joy, the junglings
and the prettiest soft music, everything was cold on the train back.
she sat herself up, where her stomach hungered for him, and he had
none of her. he had nothing to give. she almost knew that he would
have nothing, less than zero. but nearness to him, in the gambit of
his orb, in the white light of his wizard call, on the mountain, he
was the elder, not the lover. he was wise and powerful, a god as a
was the electric chair, it was the mercy seat. no i’m not afraid to
die. no.
she could pour more black coffee into her thinning existence and hope
that in one month, her skin would glow as a rose petal, all too late.
she could wish for his red whiskers, but there were so many the whole

so, there was no mystery in her for him, or him for her. that was

his mate looked at her with the knowing look she knew would come: the

give more than yes. she was not satisfied with yes. she returned for

metallic air
once more she prepared to say goodbye again. she was spent she was
hungered and tired and foolish. the earth held her tipsy. she
expected total misogyny and made off easy with indifference. that
was the better. industry kept them moving through the charcuterie.
walls of ham piled high and sliced, poisoned the auras of men. hungry
she was and near death, but not enough for this. slowly pouring food
into the consecrated wells of her love. everything she could not
have. the way she failed to embrace him. she was sorry. he made
himself such a poison. she tried and his ice was not to be overcome.

moved through her. she swung into motion like an automat. nothing
else could reach her since then. that was trops bizarre. the way he
left her hanging over infinity, far longer than she suspected. he
was a spider, and she a fly in his web. she was paralyzed, waiting
for him to take a final lethal bite of her. but better it were she
pale and rot, and go back to vasagatan, soak up all the nothingness,
all the mornings of the world. and wait for next year, and the year
after. and be as a child for ever more sacred unto him, taste the
metallic smog, though he never call, or treat her as dead. and even
the exceptions seemed unfitting. unfitting they would be. they would
not do it again. love them as she could, they’d all seem an earthly
prostitution, when she had been held in the hands of god. it was not
his fault his life was shorter by the day, for his genius to work
feared his death. she felt his long life and feared his death, whilst
she could imagine a red glow for him, suiting his perfect warmth.
deep into that glow, she wished she could come, into the purple glow
she felt like an odd doll, a curse, a challenge. her silence was
she might silently listen, and make him smile this time.

she could watch it throught the smog of arlanda. she could feel the
lost. in him she was lost. she was prepared to cry into the morrow.
she wished she could tell him, be my brother first. i did not deserve
so much knowledge. his love was hashem. his rejection was hashem,
and a joyous one. she was working herself free of thickets on the way

trigger on the suicide gun, thinking of one more beyond. he was the
end of time. he was the end. he was power and age. she was working
through gods and incest. incest made her feel alive, love among
the brothers in the grove. but better it might be to take what was
into the first night, take me into your forever, let me be your third

tongues. they were birthed flowers, rare, twain bekannt. they were

remember his flailing arms, his haste. she was a part of him. love

compassion
she wanted to challenge his compassion. his way was full of indolent
aristocracy. she did not imagine he could feel her suffering. she
arrived late, panting, for a last goodbye. she could tell him, she
tell him it was the best thing that ever happened to her, and it was.
the stage. her faith was proven. years hence, she might be another
sister on the loose. the younger knew to trust her. he trusted the
asylum. she could not get through. he lay there, sprawled among
his wires. she asked him, where should i go, what should i do. he
was the end. she reached the end. she told him, coming in the mail
is art, do not be afraid of it. she said you can throw it away. he
she could imagine screaming, but i love you, why did you touch me?
how can i live without you? he did not feel the same. he felt
she might activate his compassion. he might realize the power of his
beauty. he might seek to flee from her, and embrace life if life were
fleeing, and avoid the crazed lovers of the future. he might pick his
maybe more than anything, she wished to find the modern day frau
i am sorry you love this man, and sorry my love has nearly killed me.
i did not want to meet the end of love, the everest of men, the end of
all.
then, clearly, she could see the way easy it would be to never touch
another man. they were all so far away. she could feel the no
contest of it! there was no contest. his happy mates saw it scrawled
on the walls. they knew not what to do. they were bringing out her
happiness. he was mirror of his own seriousness. his age had him
done up.
she realized about time, when he met her before, he was thick with
she was sorry for any girl who loved deeply into the endless pool of
him.
she said, i want to take care of you. he said i have to take care of
