Still Insane

Its My Birthday. Maybe the one day a year you can get away with being a chronic bludger. I wouldnt say my bludging has been "Chronic" or "the Chron". I have been working but I made a little drawing in between jobs. Now in the nature of said "Chroning" I will write a poem about this paint drawing:


- Still life.

Life isn't still.

there are noises and movements afoot.

even at the height of stillness,

my blood crashes through my tubes;

like reckless teens on jumping beans.

There is friction in the air and invisible tension.

Radio waves and Phone calls

travel through my cells as I write: and as you read.

I will enjoy the quiet and take peace in the notion

that stillness is violent.

Life is a thrill.
