interstitial We've made disastrous recovery possible emerge from wreckage a new man with a new something, whatever you want it can be yours we've made revolt, disaster/submission/cunnilingus possible and where the railroad ties used to be there grows a flower bent forward an innocent child waiting to be helped into a new shirt, folded lamely over an arm that used to hold something smaller and gentler the room swims deeply shakes like gongs a fork on the side of a glass where your fighting fish swims knows the sound the vision the horror of that noise the microbes you just inhaled know it as the sound of life and possible oppression; interstitial, the journey; throw out your lightswitches and will things to happen will they happen in the dark or only in the daylight where you imagined a child's happy body to be, that same small knowledge you had in the floorboard of your parents' car, curled up like a comma; like a cat, like any number of penumbral items that you could list but won't because the only taste you can taste now is failure and it's not sweet at all; like the air from the vent at the bottom of that footwell Honda, thank you for understanding the needs of little people little and sleeping, dreaming of angels that fend off bloody noses and ignorance with flaming swords and mighty words that we all once understood crashes make sense if you admit this place exists.
One Hundred Eighty Degrees “Les Nessman: [excited] Obtuse! According to Websters, exceeding ninety degrees but less than one-hundred eighty degrees; lacking sharpness or quickness of sensibility; rounded at the free end; dull. [looking offended] Les Nessman: That's an insult! Bailey Quarters: Les, take it easy. Les Nessman: Take it easy! Herbert 'Herb' Tarlek: Yeah. Just calm down, okay Les Nessman: Don't tell me to calm down. I just paid five dollars to find out I'm rounded at the free end!” – from WKRP in Cincinnati, Young Master Carlson, 1979 "Biblically speaking, to repent doesn't mean to feel sorry about, to regret. It means to turn, to turn around 180 degrees." – Frederick Buechner, Secrets in the Dark: A Life in Sermons
