Language
at the speed of experience.
Now now now—
relentless.
Laughter at the pitch of
ecstasy.
Tickled—til
defenseless.
A visceral effusion
is a.k.a. coughing,
a genius
all the time—singing
ta-ra-ra boom de-ay!
over and over.
Paradise aside,
though,
and back
in our drab houses, let's
face facts,
man: wow—
means absolutely
nothing.
