Technology Meets...
Technology Meets the Death of Me
A puddle sputter of consciousness
Grasping for bright old beings
(long-lived dreamlings
and circle-shaped translucence)
Somewhat strong pull
Coming from the roof of skin
Breathing through dead gaming consoles
Plagued with electronic signatures
Singing sweets slowly
Through a glass chamber.
"Today I sang to you and you lay still,"
She said under swollen sheets
My toes are cold, scraping the cotton.
I breathe into the fabric of my pillow-case.
A shiver runs through my spine
As if I'd been crying.
Face Down. She slinks an arm around my back
I detest this unusual touch.
A second shiver tells her to leave.
The door moans softly as she shuts it.
My Transformation. by SeasideRendez-Vous, literature
Literature
My Transformation.
As I draw it closer I know this is how it will end
A smooth thought out movement drawn across my vein.
My porcelain skin destroyed.
There is no backing down now.
I am transforming,
Traveling,
Hot air balloons dancing,
Blue skirts spinning, laughing, being.
Crying babies comforted by their swollen breasted mothers
They are loved, clutched in the bosom of the heavens,
Blue girls chasing flowers across the sand
Waves crash into my footprints.
I am relaxed,
At ease.
Water lapping at my side, seeping into my pores.
My hair is undulating with the beating waves.
The ocean is becoming human,
Carrying the deep red further into the sun
Empty spaces, Empty pages, Empty lines, Empty book,
Staring blankly into space, the trees and grass and things go by
Faces appearing out of things without a beating heart
The little white daisy occasionally appears
Blending into dark.
Sounds blaring into my ears
Drowning out every natural noise,
The trees and grass and things go by.
Driving for hours with no escape
Faint whispers are heard over the drums
Until I make it louder.
Society's Confusion by SeasideRendez-Vous, literature
Literature
Society's Confusion
Steps of Rubber hitting field
a slight put-put.
The chirping bells are chiming
with a wedding ceremony crowned.
I ran into the church,
yelling for the pastor
telling him to come outside
yelling for the silent monks
and the compassionate,
lovable,
guard dogs.
Can't you see?
I'm afraid of nuns.
Can't you see?
I will not conform to your standards.
I'm moving to Canada.
Occasionally I scream
blast my lungs with the sound system
of one thousand horses galloping across the front yard
the tree is shedding its leaves in a matter of seconds.
FAST FORWARD.
Erase the trees, the horses, the front yards.
Another species rules today.
The ants go marching one by one, hoorah, hoorah.
So the end of the MassArt summer studios was today, which means everything I have from last year and this summer WILL be put up asap. Which means hopefully by next week. Because I just got a brand new camera which is exciting. Oh! And does anybody recommend where I should develop my film where it's slightly inexpensive and they don't look at/critique all of my personal photos? I don't have a darkroom at my school or nearby or have the money to make one, or I'd develop them myself. Rawr.
