Insatiably Saturated

the seepage into the matrix of the bone the saturation of the nerves the brain sweat the dreams of static - caught between channels then the compatibility of the senses the easy talk the soft afternoons the ease of knowing you are loved the myriad that comes with all this the dreams of being a sensitive monkey then the questions the invariables start cropping up the new information - not so new the seeds of doubt begin to germinate ... slowly so work on the faith that she won't stalk you pray she doesn't show up to the place of your employment now off meds for 2 weeks and came by just to start an argument in front of everyone behaving like a wolverine-attorney with claws and vicious remarks then the idea that this should never occur- we need to dream with vigorous salt and vinegar because dreaming makes things happen the bone becomes less brittle the nerves settle the brain sings again the best things are always half off you have to work a little harder to take off the rest love feeds an insatiable fire a big orange caldron of hot swirling clouds of Jupiter's atmosphere persuasion the feral nature of instant sex sometimes ... in a somnabolist's daydream
