Standing outside the barbershop
I watched a girl starting to have a seizure
Yikes i thought somebody has to help her
She morphed into a drycleaning bag
Boy did i feel stupid
Anyway, drycleaner bag or not
This girl needs an ambulance
I walked into the barber shop
By that point the gal was fine
So i asked the barber
Has anybody ever had a seizure outside your place?
He said, yeah in 1977 when i bought it
I called on my red ant to take me away, i had my laugh
The ant scurried faster than anything imaginable
Until we got to a train, this is where you go my friend
She clicked with her mandibles
I ordered the $22 omelet
There was so much cheese in the thing, i guess is 22 dollars worth of cheese
A girl on the train was quickly getting off
She had a virus
She changed into another dress from her original one and snuck out
I got off 3 stops ahead
(they were only about 5 min apart)
Hopped on a bus
Driver said he remembered me
And that he had my stuff
I rode on the bus for a bit, imprint or not and enjoyed the scenery
I got off at a hotel by the water
Which also doubled as an insane asylum
Sitting on the picnic table outside
Guy was singing close by
A girl said “why so sad?”
I replied “i have had a very sad life”
And then said something to the effect of ....i get that alot
In actuality, i am one of the happiest people in here
Then i started blabbing on and on about my travels
She was very into my visions
Not just passing the time
But keenly interested in what i had to say
A guy in a van drove by, with swastikas and he yelled
I HAVE POT, COKE, and BOOZE
The girl said oooo
I just reached into my pocket and pulled out a mini bomb
Or I.E.D
Started throwing them
Never worked
They would just land with a thud
The girl was laughing at me
I laughed too
By this time the loon with the van drove away
I told her i had to get my room sorted out
I walk in the hotel
Beige carpets
Ferns
Comfy couches
My room was overlooking a valley
I was told dinner was at 7 pm
I went but was snarled at and rejected by those seated
So i went back to my loft/room
I looked at a movie being filmed in the horizon
And thought stardom comes with a price
I went down to the floor below and ran into some girls
Started telling them about my “blood brother”
They quickly got bored and shunned it as some male thing
I walked up the staircase looked down as i reached my floor
Middle was cut out and all levels snaked around the edge of the walls
I went to my room
I saw some nervous bunny running around
Don’t be scared little guy
He was a brown rabbit
Had a long tail with what looked like a hoof at the end
Like a handle i proclaimed
It was super super scared
So i grabbed its tail and was going to lead it outside
It was very nervous
It just kept darting in all directions
Is ok lil buddy
I let it out the main door and was opening the staircase door
It scurried nervously down a few steps
And then went straight into the middle reeling on the way down
And with a thud it fell right down, about 5 levels down
Dead
I sat back and cried
Knees up to my neck
It didn’t have to be like this
I took flight with my flying panda at that point
He took me by the city scape
Showed me dozens of condo buildings were on fire
So i flew with my panda some more and he settled on one alleyway
A guy was waiting for meh
Of course i kissed him
He reached in my pocket and found a specially made bottle of pheromones
I had to leave him for a bit
I noticed a fishing rod
I said can i have it
He said sure
Salmon like to be caught
I was walking back to my hotel
When the fish hook stuck in my wrist
I had to pull it out several times
Open cuts
Blood
Omg this is sick
I couldn’t stop the bleeding
I finally made it back to the hotel
Covering my wrist with some cloth i found
This guy wanted me to help him move into his extended stay
Holding my wrist i said wow
I am out dude
I cant stop the bleeding
He said ok, but your very cute
Is there anything you want me to do?
I just said i needed some time
Something to the effect of i will never give up salmon fishing
The sphere of duality
The occasional otherworld
Definitely more stranger than our own
But most would not want to explore
Too painful and too “out there”
Would be the presumption
