seethingblue's Diaryland Diary ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- houston i think i had a dream of houston once. that there were cowboys riding bareback across desolate lands, riding upon crystal buildings bare like broken bones erupting from a thin skin of earth. buildings with hollow window panes painted across their bodies like signals to be intercepted. that i rode to the top in an elevator with no floor. being suspended from the air by a force in conflict with gravity and that i gave lectures on football fields. i spoke about dental calculus in regions of the mouth where hot kisses make intimacy an understatement and people are okay with disrobing and letting the air dry their skin in circular motions. when i dream of other cities, my senses are heightened by my current surroundings. i become self-conscious of hair dye that has dripped messily across the ceramic sink and of people who park across the street in the lot where a house once lived and now only mismatched weeds with snaking vines grow between trees that are so old, they have become immune to fire. 23:44 - 09 June, 2002 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
