kid shizz

When I was a kid we used to play hide and seek at the middle school across the street ... In the fields of dead grass, dirt patches and dandelions ... i would play for hours and hours on end ... this of course was before i had any concept of time or responsibility ... I remember coming home to drink a glass of watermelon kool aid and having to stop to take a rock out of my shoe along with a number of cat tails stuck in my socks ... Mom would let us stay out until dusk ... And I remember the excitement me and a few other kids felt when we seen the moon in the sky with it still day light out ... this somehow was us cheating moms rules cause technically it was night time if the moon was out ... we lived in a group of apartments ... blue collar families ... groups of kids ... along the back there used to be a storm creek ... I remember walking down "creek road" as the baby frogs were just starting to learn how you jump ... and the dirt road was littered with smashed frog guts, far too many to avoid stepping on underfoot .. along the creek road was an old abandoned house ... built in the style of old plantation but at that time i was too young to know what that was or even cared for that matter ... all i remember was that old house was a place of mystery ... another world ... one that a young boys imagination would carry him toward infinity and back ... there i would lay flat on my back looking toward the sky and clouds ... there it was just me, my thoughts, the smell of honeysuckle in my nose and the taste of apple now or laters ... there in the high grass while the willow trees stood guard on my daydreams ...

The Eye Business

Don't you hate it when you are out and about maybe on public transportation or at the book store and you are looking around and you casually meet someones eyes ... Then you happen to look in that general direction again and they are looking right at you ... Then you start thinking like are they looking at me? so you go ahead and try to sneak a look back to make sure and again eyes meet as they catch you looking right at them but now they are creeped out and the look away all fast and you think like damn you were looking at me first ... twice!!! ... It happened just right now on Bart ... I feel like I just got eye raped ... Then to top it off they get off at my stop and totally act like nothing happened ... I feel so cheap ...

Random

I rode the train today and I noticed how out of touch people are with other people ... Head phones iPods and smart phones ... An unreturned smile ... Averted eyes ... At least one guy was doing a crossword ...

Hunger Pains

Time seems to slow down and stop or

at least it seems that way ...
Cause when I am with you I am present in the here and now ...
I used to live in the past ...
where i munch on self pity like corn on the cob from

KFC with

my buttery lips and gravy stained teeth now

I'm 20 pounds over weight from that shit ...
When you leave ...
my thoughts are of what is yet to come and

I gorge on stress like a Costco shrimp platter

wolfing down tails and all with extra cocktail sauce ...
So many that I feel it the next day coming back up my throat as

vomit that I swallow back down ...
Come back and hang with

me cause my tummy don't feel so

good when you are gone ...
