Bananas

A soft chin curvature rests upon my left shoulder; he snores an owl's coo. We glide through Pandora's Box, a hazy raining forest between two Rastafarian villages. He slips into dreaming sessions while I carry him over a titanium bridge recycled from a nuclear aircraft carrier. Several woman caress his forehead with frozen mentholated acai juice; his fever distresses us.

"Yah boy you be under the spell of going by the nightmare bay..."

"They used to come and hunt us for carrying they weapons...."

"....remember like it just happened....Ruby be fighting them and they be scared off....Amethyst come and tell them they do it for us...."

"Something the Aztec folks in Mex be saying for no no...."

"Well they piled they guns in a circle and asked them to come over....then the shit be popping off like fireworks from the Korean Shamans...."

"Korean Shamans?"

"They black with afro puffs....but they be blazing big different color eyes....some be black some be brown but they all mixed from that sort of place you know?"

"....I understand a lot of it."

"You be looking a little East Asian some."

"Yeah...."

"You saw them do that?"

"Some damn android they called Peanut Butter."

"Them damn robots be eating shit all the time!"

"They the reason there are those damn ugly fucking cookies and cakes...."

"Mortals be eating hamburgers and hot dogs and shit."

"......yes."

"....she wears fancy clothes and walks down a row."

"Eh?"

"What you say?"

"....oh really?"

"....Ziggy...."

"I saw her a bunch."

"Where?"

"Some place with a tower that was falling down, then I saw her stand on some steps in front of some weird building, I think it was political, I saw her inside some city where people call American money catfish shit, then there was spaceship.....some man was talking with this voice that sounded familiar....he said she wouldn't remember doing it and then he told her he was going to use her underworld name for some kind of purse."

"What did the purse look like?"

"Oh he's so tired ladies..."

"Ssshh!"

"Keep on boy!"

"Yeah Ziggy you tell us all."

"It had an L and a V on it."

"Oh?"

"Was that the man's name?"

"?"

"Yes it was."

"What's it made out of?"

"He said it was baby calves....they must die naturally from ill environment. They must die from pollution and mistreatment....the hardware must be made from gold that is derived by a place he called Fort Knox....he said it must have her name on it in the bottom between red velvet from the carpets Ruby walked....he said it must be hand written receipts from thirteen bots programmed to collect the funds....he said the design cannot be imitated but it will be the most fake thing on earth besides a hater..."

".....I'll be damned."

"I be eating bananas from now on for this one!"

"....doesn't surprise me one bit for some reason."

"When were you going to tell me this little Asian boy?"

"......I'm dreaming I cannot be harmed by big people carrying me to lagoon paradises..."

"What did she do on that ship?"

".....well I helped him make some kind of insect."

"I told you Gia!"

"I told you that bug was looking at you like he knew you!"

"I knew he saw her before..."

"Is he alive brutta?"

"Yeah he was frozen inside sunshine amber. There was some kind of liquid metal that grew into his body....they did it to Cordelia too!"

"He be having them neon eyes."

"I told you he was looking at you!"

"Then there was this little silverfish looking person....he was brown and tan....."

"Oh?"

"Louis said he eats uranium."

"....why?"

"It's tasty for him."

"What did you name him?"

"He said Victoria would name him."

".....what else be going on in there?"

"He scanned her body with some kind of violent tremor like an earthquake then he send it into a canyon that bore through entirely! He said it will look like the veins inside her heart and it will connect to Ruby's....he said there would be blood inside of it....he said it was grand!"

"You ready to see Pandora's Box?"

"We be seeing you when you a full grown professor!"

"Hey what am I here for?"

"Yes...."

"Congratulations..."

"I finished all of them."

Stanford, Harvard, Yale, Baylor, Cal Tech; Daisy completes sixty-seven courses dedicated to science, agriculture, and medical supervision. He walks out of a dormitory stylishly gracing a pink button up Purple Label Ralph Lauren oxford, lavender tie, grey silver pleat trousers, K-swiss white sneakers; I watch him turn around for a final gaze at curious social depositories.

"Some guy's name on a bunch of vaulted documents..."

"....Thad can you reverse the miniature symbiosis?"

"It's not really symbiotic...I'm not sure what Baxter did....all I know is that they will be big if they find the thing."

"......oh?"

"There is a test to pass for free...."

"Oh that dotted thing?"

"Yeah..."

"If you score every single one you get in?"

"Yes but it must be perfect."

"What happens to the people who pay for it?"

"They pay for it for every blood drop they sweat."

".....he decided to be a plumber instead."

"....hhhmmm...."

Eighty-nine million three thousand seventy-five underground vampiric transgressors live a Communist variety of indefinite wishes.

"They will just be who they are when they come up."

"They won't be forced into placation?"

"No....I took your bone marrow and sent it through a skeletal trance of sensory projection....they will just be there and looking for you!"

"How do they know about me?"

"....some rebel guy figured it out....they got a world split in half....they live inside a divide and digital sleep...they think each of them is alone...they already been through what you got to do!"

Toe for toe is blasphemous destruction of preconceived notions; I belong to everyone watching. My body disembodies a personality I felt to be consequential.

"I dreamed you were laying naked with a lion...."

"....quite possible."

Versace - violent misconception, wondrous freedom of physical entity carried by a reptilian woman, she is the Queen of Death and Damnation, a house undivided, a name known for power and style, the carrier of majestic flesh, wishful stare, never quite as it seems, charitable vigilance, amorous intention, presentable grace, without competition, economical blasphemy

Blue quartz droplets rhythmatically synchronize a child inside my arms, his liveliness is beloved reminisce, I adore him as my own.

"I will always remember this Sista."

Die Die smashes a coal chamber inside the Brooklyn Basement.

"...I'm still sleep walking. For some reason this reminds me of a dream."

We enter our apartment loft; cinnamon incense ignites emphatic consideration for worlds which come undone.

"....what the fuck is a lawnmower Sun?"
