| ***BIO*** My name is Beth Fleeson. I am an MFA graduate of Chatham University, Squirrel Hill, Pittsburgh PA. I'm short, but I look taller than I am. I am not afraid of the dark and I crave silence. I shut people out and open up too easily. I love to laugh and can't swallow pills without Tourette-like ticks. I've never bitten my nails, but I have bitten people. I enjoy being lost but not feeling lost. I have smashed a car, ridden in a taxi, driven over 400 miles in one day, gotten black eyes, been on stage, and seen a movie more than 3 times in the theater. I like coffee and tea and cigarettes and own six pairs of blue jeans. I have never owned a gaming system of any kind and "self-checkout" and the grocery store scares me |

| days like these
long days of wind i waiver somewhere between disassociation and sapped apathy. i've been assuming all the emotions i've assigned you your lack of affect is startling. i am carving our history on the softest parts of your body as the sun falls listless over the horizon. i am listening to the sounds you make sleeping and i know you'll heal scarless know my memory will fade with these pink puckered lines on your abdomen know there is no wound deep enough to save you from the drug to save me once this bed and this bowl are empty. |
