There are Layers to the iniTiation










1.

There are Layers to the iniTiation, but the Boy is alReady a Man. Careful, or you’ll break it. I am Constantly looking for my Self. A Quartz reflecting. You have come here to repent. I mean that in the Holistic Sense. These Demons are Really People, and they are smiling. I am listening, trying to learn Some Thing. What? Riches? I can see my Self in these People. They are Skins I have shed and Skins I am growing into. I stare at those I want to stare back. It is as if I am living a Story that is being told over and over.







2.

What am I looking for? Some Kernel of Truth? This Idyllic Weeping. I keep thinking MURDER. I keep thinking I have to kill Some One. Or, not that I will kill a Girl, but the Universe is going to kill her in Order for me to live. It’s as True as it isn’t. I have watched Talents be destroyed by Money, or the Promise of it.

What happens to bring your Lover here?
I don’t know. I must do Some Thing to impress him.
What could that be?
I don’t know. Will it be Some Thing I do, or will it be Some Thing he realizes on his Own? Have I done All I can?
You don’t believe that.
You’re Right. I don’t. 
There’s aLways Some Thing you can do.

What can I say? We are lavishing Attention on Sociopaths. I’m Jealous, I know. My Jealousy is im’Patience. Out Side, the Sea crashes on the Shore. There are More Stones on the Shore than I can count. I am surrounded by Beauty and Hope. I spend my Days staring into a Computer Screen. Spirits come to me. Some of us have un Usual Minds. Tires burning in a Lot. Is that the Smell of Fear? Solace.








5.

My X-Boy Friend was in my Dream Last Night.
Which One?
Ha. We made out. The Walls were Wood.
What if this was a Video? What do you think?
That we’re surrounded by Brain Washing. 








6.

Maybe we need these Trailer Parks. Here, waltz with me. On the Other Side.

the saddest thing about mental illness is the fact that it reduces the ability of suffers to recognize the symptoms in themselves
