#2WordPrompt #vss365 Indigent, #slapdash in reforms to put blackout days down — I can’t remember to not remember each of those #twelve harriers, each raptor child of mine poorly raised and cast out to their own peculiar ruin by me. From that which I cannot erase, I just #walk away, eyes front.

#vss365 #2WordPrompt Wedding at the end of time, and I am the last groom, the Magpie Princess the last bride for #whom I #adorn myself with the shiny detritus of a lost world: the #narrow blade of a fallen surgeon, a hopeless medal of St. Jude, and one thin dime for one last call to you.

Spooked - #vss365 Mature / stage - #2wordprompt You are a remorselessly spooked performative horse while I am a full-blown mind virus: fully matured like a junk bond crossed with a transmogrifying kaiju, a late stage capitalist performative waifu determined to deny you any real fulfillment.

#vss365 #2wordprompt #Oddball strategy they say as you pit, ditch your softest Pirelli racing slicks — the #standard rig — just for kicks and #partner with a harder set, lean back and coast through Monte Carlo with a head full of yachts, Rolex watches and manifest destiny.

Clueless #vss365 Generous / size #2wordprompt Clueless didn’t begin to describe him, guy had an IQ like a shoe size. It would be generous to even say he was alive, or only in the way that crystals are alive, or hills: they can sparkle or ring with song, but they’re still fundamentally dumb.

Balderdash - #vss365 Consume / War - #2wordprompt It was a war fit for the consumption of vegetable-brained remote clickers and other such chuds, balderdash cast as a cross between a tropical vacation package and a penis enlargement pill.

The US attack on Venezuela is rampantly and shamelessly illegal. Donald Trump has repeatedly made it clear that the US wants to steal Venezuela's resources. This gangsterism, trashing anything left of the 'international order', will pave the way for global violent mayhem.

abstraction - #vss365 remove / define - #2wordprompt Analytically determined to remove all the clutter of a life to abstraction, to what can strictly be defined, reduced: my body a set of hinging angles, my home polygons on a grid, my loves vectors of great magnitude.

Delight - #vss365 Special / frame - #2wordprompt Rather than count the cold quiet days prior to Epiphany as boredom, I conceived of them as a special case of the wave function of delight — framing matters.

All it takes is one bad gig.

#vss365 #2wordprompt In the days when the cosmology changed, I would dream of the CMB as it was: still a remnant thrown out of its timeless singularity into whatever it was that people like us became, belonging to one another in our particular eddy of dust, a flourish of order amid the entropy.

#2wordprompt He was a #royal rumble, chaos and primality joined in a modernist concerto of violence played to the ticking of a clock; she was a 6-man tag #team TLC match, structure & edifice underlying wild Icarus flights of ambition on tottering structures. Was it suplex love or just a kick out?

#Memory - #vss365 I fall asleep on a bed of high-end memory foam and leave an impression that moulds a temporary clone of me, but which recalls my life in reverse, undoing everything I’ve ever done in the perfect comfort of a December morning under the covers.

this is not behavior becoming of a FIFA Peace Prize recipient.

The dictaphone lecture continued, a range of taboo topics addressed: demon squirrel mating habits in the Tropic of Cancer, mushroom trances, a suite of lewd harvest festival dances, bovine hominids (BoHos to the cognoscenti of crypto-anthropology) and their dreaded udder shudder. #vss365 - #boho

#vss365 Neanderthal bones, you droning a lecture into your aging dictaphone; a #monotonous prehistory according to you, all tarpits, and aurochs and proto-emus; few brains able to retain a complex narrative flow, and who hadn’t the language, so — it all ends with a red hand print and quiet years.

#Puzzle / #dinosaur - #2wordprompt Every set of bones is a puzzle half-assembled between emergence and decline; though the museum dinosaur often appears to own this quizzical distinction, it’s solely based on the publicity surrounding his extinction rather than on any earned enigmatic line.

#Apogee - #vss365 Three doors down from the Cafe de Flore, 1962: Truculent obscurity is all the work you do, the whole oeuvre: the height of your tedium, dictatorially mid, the creamy apogee, was noticed maybe by a maximum of three down dudes, three times as obscure as you.

Successor - #vss365 Consumption. Wheezing out on my death bed, perusing the depth chart of my possible successors: 1. A trilateral of orange alley cats 2. C-3PO 3. The ghost roach 4. Bonny Prince Billy 5. 7-11 night shift girl 6. Moss (collectively) 7. K. Neutral 8. Grimace 9 (Write in)

Signal / habitat - #2wordprompt Swinging watch-chain cartoon millionaire with fine whiskers of a gentleman high-steps the sidewalks razzing the bums with his “hey ho!” and “how’s the habitat there, son?”, looking down long nose through gold-rimmed pince nez, signals contempt, demands a shivving.

#Illicit cows, implicit rawhide range doggies, wranglers & rustlers six shootin’ townies into tombstone undertook slabbies, trail-blaze their way to Oregon by night, illicit flight, just to die of scabies at the river crossing by morning. #vss365
