I
am the bacterial residue that exploded moments ago upon the grime of
two lovers under the hot night of an August War. I have covered this
mass of sweat and love in a growth of a unique sort of beauty that will
never be felt again. All the universe began then for us down here. And
we’re all unique. The ones on the chin and the ones on the mouth and
the ones in the ears and the back of the neck. The ones that work down
in the central heating post of this waxing and waning and booming and
shaking and tickling. Some of us live in all the kisses left like little
outposts that creep upon every inch of their bodies. Some of these were
dropped like raindrops gently pattering every sensitive surface. And
some were floods and earthquakes sculpting life into its mystical frame.
Crowds of us came from there and built million dollar multiplexes to
watch the size of it. We laughed and cried and giggled and nodded at the
badass after he did something cool. And we drank a shitload of that
sweat and poured out little babies like we were real fucking hipsters
with infinite resources. And we farted out a steamy load of festering
and stinky ooze so sacred and beautiful it must have come from out Dark
Jesus. Good news came that day and we had a parade as we marched to our
first holiday. We didn’t know when it was, some of us live months but
most of us celebrate early when we get cleaned from our partying lives
and the negative of an irreplaceable photo disappears. We did it! We
proclaim. And it was so worthlessly terrific that every mistake couldn’t
be missed. The angels all died the same way. Each one melted like
Icarus and flooded the moon with the wastes of their corpses and wax
perfections. We died just like the unsacred filth. We were a perfect
filth, not the ones that don’t count like the interracial or atheist or
gay. We did it all right but we died the same fucking way. We didn’t
make any of the same mistakes as those other jackasses, we paddled right
through until we lost our membranes and oozed all over the floor just
like the soppy as shit ending to a soap opera. Just like the splash of a
diver with his neck on a noose. Just like the brown bags that burn to
start a fire in a filthy abandoned building. Just like the star than
meths into a black hole fishing for another ride on the heaviest
gravity. Just like the taxi that crashes into the school bus and starts
an awesome fire, exploding into the worst sort of terror. But we were so
sacred when we did it. We were the last of the most beautiful
endangered animal that was only beautiful because it was endangered. We
told stories around tables and built cities so we could invade and kill
each other. We snapped photos and then burned them away into
oscillations on an endless grid. And you ask us why the fuck should you
try it? How could that awful mess be so amazing? But don't knock it till
you try it.
