01/07/95   either
                  my narrative
                  weathervane
                  is all
                  fucked up
                  or something
                  very bad
                  is about
                  to happen—
                  and then:
 

                  48

01/07/95   who went to heaven
                  no one
                  who went to hell
                  no one
                  everyone was here
                  & just
                  for a while—
                  a movie lot
                  of ideological
                  work & consumption

02/19/95   this could be
                  a way we'd have
                  a way of stay
                  ing  in touch  see
                  ing  as we do
                  each other only
                  now & then  each giving
                  to each other
                  threads of words
                  some speakable

02/25/95   excess textual energy
                  what rough beast
                  slouches toward the red
                  roof inn upper limit
                  the roof of your mouth
                  below which fralump
                  blay qazell digl
                  tongue fish slap
                  thrash about on the wooden
                  row boat bottom
