| Fear of big tiny Flagellum |
| by Steffan Oxenrider |
| I wondered what it would be like to scream and
scream out your name although I think it would make me hoarse or is that horse? and might serve no radical purpose as my insidious plan supposed… I believe you always loved me or my image or my hair or my face or my eyes or my cranium or perhaps it was the way I smiled faintly when the drunken denizens of the music hall bar played and played at eye intercourse surrounded by stale beer and a lack of confidence except for the jocks, oh the jocks, I guess theirs was a prized existence and you know somehow I felt sorry for them, but why I don’t know, and you, so out of place against the wall like a chalk outline at a crime scene but quite the serendipitous jewel for yours truly yes what a night of discovery that was and now after so many times of planting a fear of big tiny flagellum into your brain oftentimes you still convulse with the memories, the nightmares, the uncertainty of the id that I so aptly wielded, unbeknownst to myself even, such a wild time for us, a new time, a time for exploration but tempered by harsh realities of genetics and immaturity I can see you again, the only beauty out of the entire scene…after that I had worse moments, not unlike touching a hot burner on a stove with a blindfold on after spinning around and around after being bombarded with loud loud and disjointed music/sound/noise make it stop! Stop! I can see you now, I am so sorry, very sorry, I can stop the me me, believe me…I see that is difficult for you to believe. don’t be afraid it is all in the past now, yes I know you somehow doubt that but please don’t fear, that was a long time ago now you know…you can trust me,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, |
