[As the
Stone Age's edges fall away,
a happy
robot wheezes in the buzzard sunset.
Its outer
studs blink like yellow doves, erratic.
Its
interior is lacking.
It touches
its forehead: the sky is falling.]
WALL-E's
Logbook:
Took a
dump, as if for the first time in my life.
It felt
so good, working loose my clone.
WALL-E's
Logbook: Took several weeks
to stop
banging forehead with hand curled in an ice-cream-holding
claw-fist
with old “clone” inserted into claw's exact inherent
cone-space
like an actual ice-cream.
The
“ice-cream” itched.
WALL-E's
Logbook: Find it difficult to see the light.
Fuzzy
all around. I savor the dark's strange marks, here and there.
WALL-E's
Logbook: Nauseated, I ease in the wire of light;
the last
of it, the last of the light, fucking beautiful.
I lay it
into all the dead, into their brains,
threading
it into empty homes. Empty clothes. Every stitch curdles.
Often
there's very heavy rain.
WALL-E's
Logbook:
A little
coked up. Bruises better now.
Mouthbreathing,
I savored your sext.
Happy, I
ollied over mummies on makeshift skateboard, killin' it.
Their
coughs could shatter windows, I tell ya!
WALL-E's
Logbook:
Passed a
kidney stone. A clang of fear.
But with
the weight gone, I
feel like a Phoenix, rising.
WALL-E's
Logbook:
The sky
is still oppressively attached to my forehead.
I laser
it off; all access to the sky
is
restricted, now.
