speachless in the face of madness


speachless in the face of madness

she keeps searching for a song

a phrase to encapsulate...

this thing where her own words fall short

Valhalla seeks Ragnorok near the sea


Of a chivalric nature, one slim hand goes to the Vorpal blade sitting low on her hip. She is ready for the snicker-snack.

"Ragnorok!" she attempts to bellow but belays a soft, sweet voice that warms his soon November heart. The land shivers at her promise.

And Ragnorok is struck by the fire about her very being, the shimmer of a once thought dead craving. Too long has he dwelt in the construct and confines of man, tamed, broken.

"She will slay me," he whispers "she will have me as she wills."

Valhalla stands firm on the little hill left when the moat was dug and looks past his walls, out to sea and in deep consternation. Turns quick back to him.

"Ragnorok!" I will free you.

the Zipper


Couple years ago at Oktoberfest we were all supposed to meet up but I couldn't find my friends. The celly-thing wasn't getting reception; no call in, no call out, no messages.

Resourceful blonde-gone-red chick that I am, I proceed to find beer and sausage – on a stick. For those of you that don't know, half a beer makes me tipsy. So roughly two and half beers in a commemorative glass mug…and I was entertainment for those passing by. You'd think they'd never seen a drunk chick trying to get a 12-inch sausage in her mouth.

Now I looooooooooooooooove me some carnie rides, so what does any self respected drunk do?

AWAY, BATMAN!

The Zipper…dun dun dunnnnnnnnnnnnnnn…

Carnies don't always have the Zipper and it's my favorite ride. (Shut up you guys…) so I was almost pee-in-my-pants happy.

Alone
in the middle of the basket
hanging on to both sides
whoopin' and a hollerin'

and I look over as always
and find
holes where screws go.

I swear there's only one Zipper
in the whole goddamn world…

whoooooooooooooooh!
yeeeeeeeeeeeee-hawwwwwww
come on babyyyyyyyy

and I was laughin' wild
until dizzy, the basket opened and
and the carnie fella says
"wanna go again?"

and I says "hells yeah!"
and in steps a boy…
his friends just in from Monterey
don't ride rides, he says,
and flips his wrist…

so Migeulito and I rode rides
all night, laughed, drunk…

and the Zipper?
May my life always be
that wild ride.

she awakes at four a.m.

four a.m. again
there's grit in her eyes and
she feels like a one night stand

like she's been one
not like she needs one

only that doesn't make sense

and she wonders
if the neighbor's smoking pot again
and if it's pulled through the A/C

her mind came away
last week
into a warm soft thrill
snapped her nose right off
the grind

it left her dazed
it's sudden absence
leaves her dazed

she awakes at four a.m.
wondering
why did she go there…
