One Day's Reading
I started out by writing a lot of fluff, when all I really wanted was to post the following, so here it is, sans fluff.
I have the habit of calling my brain a mind
as I don’t know the meaning of either word;
I have in my hand a hand full of pebbles
whose jagged sins were washed away in
the river. I mistake them for little
minds raining brains on the wet pavement,
while other brains on legs and hands pass
mistaking me and my minds for offerings
to deities the concrete buried when
the world was made anew in visions of steel.
all my smooth thoughts do is dirty
the ground until some kind stranger
clears them away, leaving me the duty
to bury the ground again until I die.

Hmmmm, that's GOOD. More direct, troubling and singular. Very different from some of your other stuff. Give us more like this.
WOW! I agree with Mike, this is VERY different! Definitely love it. It reminds me of a mountain lake, deceptively transparent yet dangerously deep. Yeah, this is you without fluffs:)
ah, crap. blogger borked my comments. I guess I'll just write a post about it.
