memory

What do you remember?
I remember being a child seeing the hill side filled with flowers
I remember the neighbor dogs humid warm breath descending
I remember oranges and lemons
This I remember
What do you remember?
I remember days of industry building tent palaces
I remember blanket hammocks and the cool breeze smell of eucalyptus
I remember the sea
This I remember
What do you remember?
I remember the fog so thick buildings were shrouded five yards ahead
I remember hot days strung together desert wind chapped lips
I remember my shoes
This I remember
What do you remember?
I remember traveling in a clan, road ill, stale air
I remember the night and swamp songs voices sound scape
I remember winter
This I remember
What do you remember?

recipe that works like a draem

This recipe is based on elements found in dreams. Take an illogical sequence of events insert people from high school and write it out in the style of a recipe.

Following is a short example:

Take Josh C. put him in a bikini have him run up the side of an overpass while reciting the Gettysburg address.

Enjoy.

the Quadrangle of Timjuanka

I sat biting spit bubbles on the couch, something I do to calm my mind. They were discussing the next day loudly, something I preferred not to be bothered with. It was her intensity and insistence on exacting promises that challenged my concentration and made me feel captive. The captivity was from a long time standing. And though I had tasted brief moments of slackening guard on her part, there had never been freedom. Ahh! freedom.

"One of you will buy the pizza." she said not making eye contact with any one. I wondered awkwardly who she was addressing. Her angry anxiety barely suppressed. "Dios mio!" I thought, "She will burst. What a mes that will be." She fidgeted around and moved a book two inches to the left on the coffee table after having moved it to the right two seconds before. "She must sleep now" I thought, "But if I say so it may cause her more anger." So, I hit her over the head with a Spanish/English dictionary. It knocked her out nicely and we dragged her up stairs. I wanted to tie her down but he wouldn't let me.

The faces were blank at first
the minds and eyes wandered
for the most part they said not a word
I was a bit disheartened.
My captive audience I feel I bore,
a failing in my entertainment,
desperation cast me here directing vain attention
unsuited though I feel.

052709
Me and the frozen peas
are holed up on the couch
they in case my arm
I melt them with my heat
then return them to re freeze
in two hours we will meet
in time we will recover
me and the frozen peas.

052809
Expectant faces inquisitive eyes
I hold the next move
anxious shy let go by the end
I'm flooded with questions
I can't keep up inventions occur
thirst weak voice dust
these shoes are all wrong
this bag anachronism.

It was bound to happen. Today Emma set the house alarm on while I was taking a nap. Luckily I figured it out before I tripped it or anything but I did have to wait an hour for Dada to get home and shut it off. You'd think I was the neglect-able pet or something.

Our main computer has been down for a month now. This is bad for business.

This auxiliary computer has annoying limitations.
