ventriloquism, oh
you wooden dream

appeals
to my fogged wander

dark up 128
and your

unwashed
hair when our clothes
stuck like August to Farmington.

Someone’s picnic driveway
I buckle you in
recede into monologue

appear
again, ancient
thicket in Solon, our first.

Re: billings

[nakedsprouts]

lies!
when did we go there together?
you must have that confused with the time we ate 5 lbs of peas on the floor of billings sisters apartment

Re: billings

hahaha we definitely went there together to trace those carvings in the rock. which, with transparencies and dry erase markers was a pretty futile exercise.
i definitely went with you though and i have NEVER eaten peas on billings sister's apartment floor. who is billing's sister?

maybe i do remember her sister but..i dont think that pea thing occured.

Re: billings

[nakedsprouts]

dude! billings sister! how do you not remember that. she was really angry and hated seth
and you and emily and i went to the store to get food and we bought a huge bag of snap peas and ate them raw

and i went to the petroglyphs with nate...?

we are in trouble if our memories are already failing us, which mine obviously is.
