Theatrical Trespass

Quasimoto leans between black toweled cinder blocks while I read Shakespeare's Hamlet to a sunshine orange spider.

"...he reminds me a lot of you. I will call you Hamlet."

We ride twenty-two circled blocks into Long Island's curious rocks.

"Wherever I am will you come?"

You Know Who spray paints a piggy bank; he presents violent satire to Hamlet.

"So who wrote all that anyways?"

"The guy with the beard that was a bat pretending to be a famous worshiped man."

".....how did you know that?"

"Enoch told us..."

"......what else did he write?"

"Enoch said he is always writing and leaving us notes."

"Where is he at?"

"Wherever we come from and wherever we go..."

"...must be the metal piece that fits under a talking tongue."

"Mercury?"

"Yeah....so what is that planet made out of?"

"....it's not really there."

"It's a....some kind of reflection?"

"A bounce of light through a telescope...it's a trick!"

"....what about the other ones?'

"......this one is the only one with dirt."

"...is that why I sneeze a lot?"

"No....you are allergic to dogs."

I place my hands over Daisy's eyelids; her smile shows through a water glass.

"...it tickles..."

"It?"

"...he is a person."

"Do you like him?"

"....he walks like a model."

"How does a model walk?"

"Like it's nobody's business."

"How do you know that?"

".....I followed you to Medusa."

".......and why did you do that?"

"I needed to see where you go when you look all over the place to see if anybody is looking."

"..........."

"I heard them say your name three thousand moments."

"Which name?"

"Gia."

"What do you know about her?"

"I hid your latex inserts."

"Why did you do that?"

"....uh....some guy told me it was just some gooey stuff."

"What did he look like?"

"...I would remember his voice."

"......where did he come from?"

"He disappeared."

"Literally?"

"Uh huh."

"What did you do?"

"I ate peaches, swordfish cantaloupe cherry kabob, I wore a fancy tie a man with long dark hair put around my neck, I ate some slushy grapefruit stuff that made me feel dizzy and somebody called it dessert booze, whatever that means, and I made a castle out of sugar cubes."

"...where was I?"

"Asleep on a table with a woman in pink."

"What was she doing?"

"Waving for me to come..."

"Then..."

"I got in trouble."

"Did she send you home?"

"I stayed with her after some man carried you away. I wore pajamas with black pirate x spots all over, fuzzy slippers, and a cone hat."

"....you were drunk little boy."

"I drank four cups of clove tea but she told me not to tell you about that....she put goat's milk in it..."

"You drank goat's milk?"

"...it's not dairy...it tastes not so good though."

"What does it taste like?"

"...make up."

"How do you know what make up tastes like?"

"I thought it was candy."

"The MAC?"

"....I thought it meant melted assortment of candy."

"It does."

".....well see I had my reasons."

"Open your eyes."

"Oh he's a sunshine demon."

"Yes..."

"........."

"What?"

"He has people eyes."

"What else?"

"He has fangs..."

"And....."

"...he dances."

".....I never noticed that."

My husband sets aside an elongated pillow, I feel lifting strands of hair; my right hand caresses his collar, he reaches for a book laying upon my neck.

"A Clockwork Orange....you must of read this for every world we live."

"....why don't you?"

"I fear the ending..."

"Why?"

"It's about you and Ruby."

"....when will it commence my chastisement?"

"Whenever we are chastised."

"Did you fix my hair?"

"No...it was your little spider companion."

"Where did he go?"

"....he's looking in the mirror."

"Again?"

"Yes..."

".....I think it was the photography that created his immense sense of vanity."

"I think it was you."

"Why do you say so?"

"Well you asked his mother if he could be your personality fix and she said yes with a web gift and then you took him to Paris..."

"He likes my ugly bike."

"......he scares the hell out of weird androids."

"....he likes peanut butter."

"He is very beautiful."

"You all roll with his brothers and sisters..."

".....yes....yes we do."

"He drinks a lot of blood."

"Are you worried about him?"

"No I was just saying that he does..."

"He filled a hospital once."

"What were those people doing....?"

"Spying on you."

".......Die Die where is Hamlet?"

"He's on Andain's nose."

"....oh....."

"He's so dramatic."

"He's Hamlet!"

"True...."

".....I really need to do something about Quasimoto."

"Listen Sunny we need to discuss the world we know."

"What about it?"

"....what you going to do when it is a fake smiley face?"

"Pretend to go along with it..."

"Me too."

"...I want it to come for me."

"Me too."

"Did you hear that ugly motherfuckers that make me want this fucked up city! I want you wherever I am so I know I am crazy. So you remember me!"

"Screaming out the window!"

"Fuck yeah Sun!"

"We heard you!"

"Scream all you want!"

"Ugly ass New York!"

"Everywhere!"

"Everywhere!"

"Everywhere!!!!!"

Confection cake creme roundly chunks fill a gutted road hump; I sit inside an emptied Yankee Stadium box seat.

"....this is so fucking gross."

"Ruby...can you hear me? Chris is covered in nasty cake blobs."

"........what does his face look like?"

"Creamy smiles."

"He's smiling?"

"I think he did it on purpose."

"Why?"

"Just so he could freak everybody out looking like that."

"Good idea."

"I know!"

"That's what you did covered in rolled shortcake jelly."

"....that was so fucking gross."

"......he bit the fuck out of somebody inside my eyelids."

"Hamlet?"

"Yeah Sun..."

"Who Diesel?"

"....I don't know....he started acting all dramatic afterwards...."

"....why did he do that?"

"He was pissed off about black ants."

"....I had a dream about buzzards carrying a body..."

"Whose?"

".......somebody."

"Did you recognize them?"

"He was somebody who bothered girls a lot."

"You?"

".....yeah I was one too."

"You are a girl!"

"Yeah..."

"How did they get him?"

".....he bought some big house to impress somebody and he was drinking urine lemonade....then this cock rooster was playing in the road and got smashed..."

"Buzzards are an omen."

"Of what?"

"....the reign of the underworld."

"What is the underworld?"

"......well he said it was this."

"Who said that?"

"....Edgar Allan..."

"Wasn't that the bearded guy that rode the donkey?"

"Yeah..."

"....."

"........people are looking for you and you are right there."

"Did they do that to him?"

"Yeah all the time."

"What did he do?"

"....just stay there."

"Where did he work at?"

"Some store where people drove him crazy."

"......seriously?"

"He left one time laughing like a lunatic."

"Why?"

"....madness...."

"Chris what kind of bike is that anyways?"

"It's a Harley Davidson."

"....it's named after your twin and why David's son?"

"We think he lives inside a digital box."

"........really?"

"Don't go in there okay?"

"Why?"

"Because I don't want to see that shit Amethyst."

"....because it's corny?"

"I don't like corn and cheese."

"What if it was together?"

"....maybe that won't be so bad but separately it's an unhealthy snack."

"Are those bamboo shoots?"

"Zyna eats them too."

".....my son eats them too."

"Which one?"

"The one with the blonde hair."

".....uh...."

"....have you seen Cordelia?"

"......which one is that?"

"The one that looks like me."

".....uh....."

"What if I get trapped there?"

"....here take this with you..."

"........it's your chain ring."

"I don't need it but you do...."

"For what?"

"To remember me, no shit man!"

"........what if your bike can't go through the phase?"

"You think it will undo in phases?"

"I guess I will find out."

"I once read a book some raven guy wrote about people torturing him, making a box full of tricks, and then he wrote a lot of books and magazines...."

"What was his name?"

"....the British word for impoverished but rich inside your heart."

"Poe."

"Yeah....that's him."

"......what about the big god person?"

"I just wanted to see if he would sit on the politicians."

"....hhhmmm..."

"This shit won't last without you and all the other vampires."

"How?"

"All this shit is spun from your web..."

"What web?"

"Electrical frequencies....I might be a beeper beep but I know that this will come for all of you."

"God it's so fucking ugly."

"....so is corn and cheese."

"I didn't know you read books."

"I usually watch movies."

"....yeah."

"Well make sure nobody messes up your face!"

".......why?"

"So I can recognize you!"

"You need to lose weight."

"Oh shut up. So do you."

"......damn it."

"Thad what if time collides?"

"It will....outside and inside time will circulate into one big stupid retarded dumb ass clock."

"Where did you learn to curse?"

"From a man in tight pants and a woman in high heels."

"....who are they?"

".....did you just really ask me that?"

"....they are not that high and his pants are not that tight."

".......did you just really say that?"

"....what am I going to do without high heels?"

".......did you just really worry about that given the circumstance?"

"...Thad...."

".......you will run about and walk about like a person without skyscrapers and tubular computerized graphics."

".......Shit."

"Those shoes are high Teacher."

"Like a Rude Boy?"

"I heard you call Clyde that once."

"It's a big plantain leaf spliff."

"A big green joint?"

"It's more like a golden brown...yeah a big fucking joint."

"....where do you hide that thing?"

"In between your legs."

"......weird."

"Why so?"

".....because we have to hide it."

"I stopped smoking it."

"........I had a dream about people asking me questions like I asked you."

"....oh?"

"...they were scared about something."

"What?"

"Seemed like they really felt as though and expected and knew that something was coming for you and me too."

"......what is it?"

".....only one of them was sitting still like he understood."

"....peace is an understatement."

"It was something violent and horrid."

"That's life..."

"...Victoria...speaking as your little bro....I am saying sister this was some shit that we never even been through before."

"You better listen to him Vicki...it's me Marsha...I had me a bad dream about peoples eating each other in the streets."

"For some reason that doesn't surprise me."

"I wouldn't of minded it so much if they wasn't trying to get them little ones!"

"What little ones?"

"....they look like little elderly walkers...."

"What else did you see?"

"You had some cyber genetic face shield and body armor..."

"Detail please...."

"It looked like a neon green skeleton insect."

"...were you reading comic books or something?"

"You know I don't do that shit!"

"Did you smoke a lot of weed?"

"Maybe I did but that don't impair my sense of dreaming!"

"....she has a valid point Teacher."

"What about you?"

"I wear tie dye a lot."

"....is that it?"

"...I really liked that part."

"......you both are giggling."

"Oh come on Thad it's tie dye fashion."

"That has to be a good sign."

"Yeah it was pink and purple and white."

"Who made it?"

"....some weird dog."

"What?"

"I don't know..."

"Are you sure it was a canine?"

"He didn't bother me...he looked like something big."

"Did he bark?"

"...no he was quiet but I know he was a dog."

"Why?"

"He don't believe in god."
