novembre ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- matter-of-fact i missed you, i missed you. oh, is this you? oh popcorn. oh kettle corn. i consume you as one inhales air. siphoning off the sugar and salt and puffed corn and the rest gets stuck in my teeth like angry petitioners. like carbon dioxide. the oxygen stays inside. other things i eat on a too-regular basis: diet coke. otter pops. tandoori chicken and naan. lentil soup. tiger's milk bars, protein rich. i miss everyday usage of words like stellar. i do not miss bitchin'. 11:43 pm - 08.03.02 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
