Part VI / VIII
Glove You Too
Paschal Wilson
I am the operator
I come to operate
I come to cut while you hibernate
I am the nursery lady
I shave my legs smooth like baby
I come to give you milk and honey
I am the bed
You make me red
Do you call that blushing?
I am the button
You press for suckin’
Except I make you go to sleep
I am the feeling
I am the ceiling
I am the healing
Marshmallow fellow
I am liquid sugar
I am high fructose porn syrup
I am coming from nothing
All over my pillow
I am sedation
I am seduction
I am getting breast reduction
I am asleep again
Touch me where I shall not function
I am asleeeeeeep
I dream a dreeeeeeeeam
Of making creeeeeeeam
Under the covers here
I feel my someeeeeeeething
I don’t know whaaaaat thing
It’d be disgussssssssting
If I could seeeeeeeeeeee
I am asleeeeeeep
I cannot dreeeeeeeam
And now I neeeeeeeed
Smack on my peeeeeeeeen
My baby sheeeeeeeeeee
Has made me sleeeeeeeepy
I wake a new
A button on my shoe
I feel as good as you
With my brand new screws
Then I see a friend again
Hugging friends till the end
Now I’m bleeding
I wonder if I ever stopped
I wonder if my stitches have stayed in
I’m cut again
It hurts like burning off my skin
It cuts like cuts is providence
But I pretend
Cause he’s my kin
That hugs are hugs
And cuts are friends
But secretly I’m reacting
To the stab wound
It takes me back
Smack town laying, laying down smack
Smack that ass and hoot and holler, not my favorite way to bother
I drift into sticky make believe
Where touch is what I want
And sleep is coming after
I never knew
Some cuts are true
Open me up I’m fun inside
I have lots of love inside
I have lots of drugs inside
My system when I sleep.
Open up my arms and legs
Open up my Sudafed
Open up my inside out
While outside’s fitting in.
Hang me from the clothing line
Hang me from a parking fine
Hang me from the IV in my
Newfound wired alibi.
I want what will feel me good
Whatever you think feels me good
Everything feels good to me
I sleep.
Now I am just a junkie
I’d fuck anyone for money
Because money is the closest thing
To liquid legal milk and honey
But I get by on sticks and clams
I won’t get raped by the candy man
Here’s my 10 year long retirement plan
I’ll move myself out to the desert
And I’ll get high on sand and lizards
So when I turn 30 I can
Finally feel my lonely hands
I’m sorry if I said I loved ya
I just gloved cause I can’t touch ya
If you try to touch me I will
Burn down here to Alabama
One day I will come on back
My lady will give heart attack
When she says we can finally fack
After 20 years of doing smack
Smack down dreams are always creamy
Smack down dreams are always screamy
Smack down dreams are realizing
I’m not coming
Tonight.
“Feelings” are
1: tactile
2: imaginary
3: something else
Imagine feeling your feeling of feeling and it feels like something else
Imagine how I feel
Imagine feeling the touching the finger that’s touching the touch that feels
Imagine that from your bellybutton to your butt
Imagine me consistently seeking some degree of pain relief
And all I get is sedated
For the betterment of my community
There’s just no word for the feeling that blurs through sleep and wake and mind and body
Nerve damage, Imaginary pain, Psychosomatic, Lying
What a life
It’s like it didn’t hurt until I realized
It’s like wiping the blood from
Above your eyes
Before you know
You’re bleeding dry
This will be my battle cry
Tonight I will try
To sleep good on my side
