sea ghost on shore leave

MTV, I am Werner Herzog and this is my crib. It is but temporary refuge from nature's fury. The walls were once trees. I made them traitors.
These ARE my clowns. This IS my circus. There is much for which I must atone.

Something in the fountain tosses a rounded shard of copper back at you.

You asked. We listened. We put AI in the microplastics.

I am not “trapped” inside the painting. I like it in here.

David Byrne timidly exits a waterlogged suit and scuttles across the sizzling sand. Until he locates an improbably larger suit, he will be left vulnerable to seagulls and other hungry predators. At last, salvation: He finds an abandoned gray suit in a tide pool and crawls into his spacious new home.

I propose we free the piñata and follow the beast across the barrens, where it may lead us to its herd. Imagine the candy then, my friends. Imagine our spoils. Our reward.

Shaved off my mustache for the first time in years and my face has never been more aerodynamic. I'm sprinting up the side of a skyscraper. I'm outpacing helicopters. I'm catching up to god.

The dentist pulls a tiny book wedged between a couple of molars and my ribs swing open to reveal a torchlit staircase.

Swapping my skeleton with one I found behind a waterfall

Chartreuse? We all thought you said shark truce. I believed the war was finally over. The waters run red and you dare speak of green-yellow?

Here, mostly.

A little cuckoo bird should pop out of the doomsday clock. Have some fun with it.

So we beat on, boats against the current, riding monster waves, catching sick air, ceaselessly impressing bodacious babes.

IF YOU ARE STILL IN LINE TO VOTE, STAY IN LINE. I AM INSIDE YOUR HOME. I AM CARESSING YOUR PHOTOGRAPHS. YOUR CLOTHES FIT PERFECTLY. YOUR FAMILY PREPARES A PLACE FOR ME AT THE HEAD OF THIS TABLE.

When you see scary things in the news, look for the Helpers. Watch out for the Helpers and their long, contorting limbs ambling over the rubble. Remain vigilant and still, for their vision is based on movement.

I don't want a stronger password, I want revenge

Your email finds me chained deep within the catacombs, my insatiable lust for Amontillado deployed against me.

Met a living horseshoe crab in the wild for the first time.

"Rise and grind.” The amulet grows heavier. "Let's make that bread." Its string singes the nape of my neck. “Grindset mindset ‘til sunset.” I lose widening swaths of time, awaken in the woods.

Suddenly looking up from the old fashioned milkshake we share to rigidly murmur “we shouldn’t be here; no living thing should” and your straw loudly slurps in the empty glass

I am essential to the quest and cannot be killed, although I may be downed for a brief time

If you make Charon laugh, you get to sip from the river Styx. I hear it tastes like what peace feels like. One sip and all your questions find answers in a moment of perfect bliss. If you try to make him laugh and fail, you have to drink from The Hell Bucket (liquified teeth).

Politely nodding at the other druid as we slowly drag our menhirs in opposite directions across the moor.

Seeing plenty of cicada slander on the timeline this year. This is a pro-cicada account. My sleepy screaming darlings of the dusk are safe here.

One must approach horses with a flat, open palm because paper beats rock and hooves are always rock. Do NOT let a horse see you with scissors.
