Nobody's home.
Soak in the primordial ooze.
Zoom in: his one good eye is red, the other almost pellucid.
It's painterly, even.
Nobody asked you.
He wants you to know it's an honor just to be nominated.
Zoom in again.
Somebody got their kelp in his aquifer.
Maybe they zigged when they should have zagged.
It's mortifying, really.
As long as Somebody knows.
A being of negative energy.
& the membrane of the mirror like the plexiglass in a taxicab.
Does not socialize.
Life can exist in the most extreme conditions.
Summoned to guard something precious, like a crystal skull or a shopping mall.
Put eyes on anything to make it a person.
Nobody's the fag end of this binary.
Help this blackbird, there's a stone around my leg.
Nothing comforting about the second person.
Or the third, &c.
Don't believe in yourself, believe in faeries.
Leave the light on for the moths who think it's the moon.
An invisible moon is called "new."
Nobody's a new man.
Meet the new man, same as the old man.
