In bed and on drugs

that’s where i’d been for a week. the result of a memorial day motorcycle

wreck. On my feet now. playing now. eyes open. where did i go?

speeding down back roads. here. there. slat ribbed curs in the shoulder weeds.

Dreams of some actress. A hole in her chin.

New skin now. mostly whole again but with new marks there in silvery pink or purple grey.

that thing was too shiny and new anyhow.

i need to pay down this ER bill.

Load the boat and push off

see it all again

let’s see it all again
