When you add more than 5 things here, Ron, it seems only the last three show on the front page. Not paying attention, I missed this poem. My silence wasn't a comment on the poem, which is fantastic, but a comment on my ability to think in the wee ...

Factory life

They've been bringing in cons on
work release for cheap labor.
It started with Frank, two
years ago.
I remember the day Frank
showed up looking all hang-
dog & sullen. He was living in
the half-way house then, just
out of jail.
My boss had contacted him while
he was still incarcerated.
They bring them in for hand
work, bindery things, like
stuffing envelopes for
mailings. Frank had some
printing experience.
They had him doing hand
work, then he was covering
on night shift on the little

with mutant people
with butts for faces
so when they spoke shit came out
& this one dwarf with two heads
wouldn't stop throwing up
what looked like chunky milk
all over himself
& i screamed for somebody to help him

in re Ron's comment yesterday about Cheryl Townsend's bookstore wld have stocked my book

[I FOUND OUT THE HARD WAY THAT THIS POST HAD TOO MANY CHARACTERS TO POST AS A RESPONDING COMMENT, SO I'M POSTING IT HERE]:
"Wld have?" Too bad Cheryl had to close shop. I think it was Braughtigan's "In Watermelon Sugar," where he, as protagonist, had a graveyard shift job as a lone and ensconced curator in and for a "midnight" library of private collections where secret, anonymous authors would drop off their manuscripts from an outside drop shute to an inside collection bin for him, and… Continue

Ron's Hallowe'en Gift

Thanks for the jack, Ron. I tried to get a witch over to you but I gifted myself instead. This Anachron is still configuring out the 21st century. Consider my latest metric montages my gift to the site. Glad they got your hairs up.

Goodbye Kiss

Goodbye Kiss


We sat in her new car. We’d just been divorced.
The judge had signed off on the paperwork.
She turned to me and held out her slim hand.
I still loved her, though I was with someone else.
She was with someone else too, and pregnant.
I didn’t know she was pregnant. I didn’t know shit.
The whole marriage I hadn’t known anything.
Why should this last day be any different?
I asked her for a goodbye kiss. She shook her head.
She didn’t think that would be a wise thing to do.
We were sit… Continue

Grindstone

Grindstone


They say you should keep your nose
to the grindstone, but as a young man,
recently married, I was a grinder-chipper
in a factory in dusty Yale, Michigan,
and I can tell you if you put your nose
to the grindstone you’ll grind flesh,
then cartilage, shredding the nose,
the sinus cavities, reaching the forehead
as blood spurts like red paint shooting
from a sprayer, then the head and mouth
will grind, the stone spinning, its rocks
splintering bone, sanding down the lips,
the chin, eyes… Continue

Batteries Included In The Center Of The Moon

My son-in-law, Jeremy, installs a new water-tank for us. An energy-saver model. He sings & curses & takes congratulatory smoke-breaks after each success in succession of successful accomplishments in the steps he takes. Our hot water has never been hotter & the setting is set to the tank’s most efficient setting. He has all the tools, but runs out of solder & female copper couples, corners. But he gets the job done. It’s a success. We are giving him the old tank since it still wo… Continue

Twin Arrows Restored On Route 66

I am not so much a Route 66 fan as I am a roadside attraction fan. Regardless of the highway, city or state there is always some strange or offbeat tourist attraction that catches my eye. For years I have been taking notes and collecting pictures for that book I never do seem to get around to writing. I think the entire history of the American ro… Continue

you ever wonder if that hook in a fish's mouth is feeling good to him?

you ever tense up and just let out loud screams while twitching.

Jail Institutions or Death

the black guard dog lay next to me. he smells, he needs a bath. He's got greasy ears. but i can barely shower myself these days. i can stick my hair up into a Mohawk just from the dripping grease in it. I'm a slob with bad hygiene, my teeth in pictures look bright yellow so I never smile. the dog just farted and tried to act like he didn't. It smells terrible. I yelled at him but he just slightly lifted his head from wooden floor and went back to sleep.

this morning I ate 100 milligrams… Continue

by nrm


she lost me when she started eating colored crayons claiming her poop would be beautiful with rainbow colors.
she had been eating acid everyday like it was candy and I'm no drug counselor but I could see it was really making her already psychotic thoughts become into boiling versions of soon to erupt schizophrenia.

her sentences never made sense anymore, it was all babble about the earths water and how to help the animals of the world after she took a boat ride to Egy… Continue

Natural, Ruptured Chaos

9:30 in the morning already. we both woke at 8, me from the downstairs couch, & sweet Ann fluttering down the stairs from our bedroom, dog all excited & late for his morning (6-7) outside bodily fluid ritual. Because my gifts to her came in the mail yesterday, solar wind-chimes, a moon-thing incense tower, & 2 demon hands with fanged fingers (candles in their creepy palms), she went out to the state store (title of liquor stores in grand pennsylvania) to purchase a beautifully light… Continue

the email thing

some have written to me about the barrage of email they get from this network. if you go to "settings" at top right of page, click, click "email" to whittle away what you want, or to chop all future emails.
