Here it is. Here is all the matter.
I’m in Mooloolaba. It’s 8:07 pm. I’m sitting by the pool. There’s lots of people hanging out. They’re speaking languages I don’t know. It’s a nice spot.
Today I walked to Maroochydore. It’s about an hour’s walk north. I went to deposit money in the bank. It’s great that Australia has the coin counters everywhere. Afterwards I went to Hungry Jack’s. They have good veggie burgers. Then I went to a camera store. I want a little point and shoot camera. I want a nice camera that I can fit in my pocket. My Canon is really nice but I don’t always want to carry it around. Sometimes I can’t. I want something that I can have in my pocket. I want the Ricoh GR3x…..
Yesterday a man came up to me while I was busking. He asked if I had a card. I said I didn’t. He said that his brother might be looking for a musician to play at his shop. He asked if I was good enough to be payed. I said I didn’t know, but that I’d do a little audition for him right there. So he sat down and I played him ‘You Got A Friend In Me’. I think he liked it. I think he was recording the audio as well. He asked for my phone number. I guess we’ll see what happens. I would love to have a consistent gig playing in some shop. That would be great.
It made me think that I should have an Instagram account dedicated to my live music. That way I can reach out to pubs and cafe’s through instagram. I can post clips of my performances.
I just wanna love that dog. I want that little Hitler to fuck me. I want to turn up to some house and blast all the walls apart. I wanna tear the glass out of the sky and put it in the cement mixer. I’m gonna make it happen, you know. It’s only a matter of time. That is a promise.
So Arnold wandered into his mother’s bedroom. He found her face down on the floor.
“Get up!” Cried Arnold. “Don’t be dead!”
Arnold’s mother twitched like a vacuum. Then she rolled onto her back. “Look at me,” she whispered. “I’m down here and you’re way up there. How’d we get so far from the truth.”
“I’m calling my lawyer,” declared Arnold, pointing his finger at his belly. “I’m gonna ask that you be taken away. You’re not good for me.”
“Don’t make lies. Don’t make stuff up in your mother's bedroom.”
“I’m not a liar!” Cried Arnold. He did a sudden backflip to prove his power. “I’m in charge of this house! I’m stressed like no other! Like a mother on fire! Like a girl with braids! I’m the one who has to hear you fuck!”
“Just get me some water,” asked the mother. “Then we can talk like proper gentlemen. Get me some water and place it GENTLY on the floor.”
Arnold left the room. He descended the steps five at a time. He ran past the kitchen. He left the house through the back. He ran through the garden and jumped as hard as he could. He started to float up into the sky. He noticed that he could feel a vibration. He was everyone. He was everywhere. There was no longer any time. Everything had already happened. It was all collapsing into a little red sphere!
Then he was outside of the neon doughnut. He was watching all of nature unfold itself. It was shimmering like electricity running through a wire. He was told to understand the truth. He held out his hand and absorbed light, like a leaf. He started to remember that he’d been here before. He’d actually never left. It was all suddenly so obvious. He closed his eyes and left his body. The walls become baked into the stones. The shadows solidified into form. The grass started blowing. The trees leaned way over. The flags whipped about.
