(From Dissociative Fugue #2)
“I was the victim of a series of accidents.”
— Kurt Vonnegut, The Sirens of Titan
Television, at low doses
around midnight
& it is only my heart.
I worry.
I am.
The shadow people are not something new.
Bubbling slowly,
the movie’s become extremely oblique.
I felt I had to see this.
How do I take it?
I wonder.
Is this – knowing my body?
My body, it feels that very vein.
…
& then a movement – no –
another attempt to get up
& everytime I 2nd – guess
will you see through this?
