Instructions for Giving
This is how
You give up:
Throw your hands
To the sky
Say god why
Oh god why
This is how
You give up:
Cry when you
Are alone
When you are
Out with friends
With your dog
At the park
On the phone
In your bed
In the dark
This is how
You give up:
You do not
Give in
There is a difference
Between those prepositions
Perhaps you forgot
That up indicates a position
That is higher than
_____That is higher than
__________That is higher than
The one
in which
you find
yourself
in this
bare, ripe
moment
This is how
You give up:
Just give up

#Winning
My penis was eaten by an old catfish
After my brother tore me down
My sister/wife put me back me together
From all the parts that she had found
She had to take a golden phallus
And strap it to my groin
Then we made love all night long
Got her pregnant with a baby boy
And that little boy, well he growed up
To do his daddy proud
He found his murderin’ uncle hiding away
And the circle of violence spun round
The circle of violence spins round and round
With no beginning, with no end
I learned the hard way the circle never slows down
Violence always wins
Listen to me while you’re breathing hard
I said violence always wins
Oh, listen to me while you’re seeing stars
Violence always wins
It ain’t hard to see the cosmic truth
Peace and love are real fine virtues
But they don’t hold a candle to the old 1, 2
Because violence, steady violence,
Violence, always violence,
Always wins

Wash the dishes while NPR plays. Take the trash to the curb. Work from the laptop in different rooms for a change of scenery. Practice the guitar. Walk on the treadmill. Try to write something with impact. Look out the window for 10 minutes. Stare at the phone hoping for something new.

Later Still: Make for the treadmill. Of different minutes, thin. Else new? The lunch, the nap? Up scenery to under 10. Write, drink, while anyone plays. Make my hoping at the window dishes. Try for phone sheet. Wash for to wakes. Wants guitar. A walk by something before trash. Take cups on out, in. Change rooms. By the curb. Listen, anyone, the two work for a breakfast from NPR. The look of Sleep: stare to that coffee in the fire. Practice youth songs with something. Impact: Eat the laptop.
Transference II
Another sneak of the upcoming release. Enjoy.
Letterbox 10/2/88 (after They Might Be Giants)
She’ll never know what she’ll find
When she opens up her letter box tomorrow
‘Cause a big bunny tells me everything I want to know
Except about Grandma Death, Roberta Sparrow
And I’ll never never know
All the things I never never never want to know
Even though I’m Donnie Darko
Since I can see the effervescent chest tubes showing paths though time
I can know the future but still forgot I was gonna shoot my spirit guide
Smack dead in the middle of his eye
I should’ve have talked with you about The Philosophy of Time, shouldn’t I?
Would’ve that worked out fine?
Living Receiver is my new job it’s crazy so there’s no time for sorrow
In my hoodie find a vortex in the sky to die smiling yesterday’s tomorrow
She’ll never know what she’ll find
When she opens up her letter box tomorrow
‘Cause a big bunny tells me everything I want to know
Except about Grandma Death, Roberta Sparrow
And I’ll never never know
All the things I never never never want to know
Even though I’m Donnie Darko
Donnie Darko turns 20 this year…and They Might Be Giants is timeless.
