skytrain to nut house

Post by Axanderdeath » August 15th, 2008, 2:51 pm

She sits talking to her
friends
on the
sky train
waiting for
responses
to no one

“oh but she is a demon
a vampire!”
rasping laughter

insane people
fascinate me

I never make Eye
contact
in fear of contraction

GAP
thus spoke G.A.P.

this piece is totally mystifying to me subject-wise
I don't know what the fuck you are talking about
but I like the way it reads


'rasping laughter' has great percussion and sibilance.

I pictured wacked-out woman talking to an invisible "sky train"...
Nice sketch.
