at the exit

May 27, 2015

I.

All I want in the sandwich is meat,

layers of meat,

three different types

10 legs

2 wings

6 eyes

In my spare time I design logos for companies that don’t exsist.

I fall asleep and wake up three weeks later

to a thriller on TV,

a gun attached to a detective,

set somewhere but not here.

There is a bridge connecting two places.

ii.

I’d have a cameo in my own life

(if it was ever filmed)

and I’d be ‘talking man in

restaurant’

Or, ‘man in the queue at the bank’

And from the list I remembered

“(24) fear gives way to anger “

iii.

She smiles a bit more genuinely now,

these days she can swim out to the markers.

The closest you ever came to kissing her was when

you shared a joint at that party.

iiii.

I memorised the A to Z

the roads, the names. I underlinedunderlined things

with magic markers,

but realised there’s no magic in pens anymore

and I underlined important places,

you know

like churches, pubic footpaths

bridal ways, hills with low gradients,

and I still take high doses in the right

measures.
