Everything is in fragments.
I cannot write what I want to write. Not here. not here.
What I think when I’m thinking right now.
open sans. Grass stains. glued. In a line
ringlet around the circle of head shot.
The image for 8 seconds. Glued to 8 seconds
to 8 seconds to 8 seconds, glued. Swipe down home
page. Ringlet around the circle of head shot
opens to image of location at
where we play card game. BS. BS. BS. Call it. Call
me. 4

fives—BS!
—not hearing—
You are. He
is. He can
hear. They can. Not even
ignorance.
I heard I heard I heard I can’t hear
you.
Decision. A decision was made to choose to not.
to not hear.
He calls bullshit. He picks the card up, smiles as he looks at my lie.
How I lay: on my back, in the grass. Grass stains on shirt.
Dirt. Pinecone in the shallow of my spine. Water feature to my left,
streaming. How it drowns out the sound.
Drowns.
Piles in cards, piling. In cards, arrayed. Some for 8 seconds.
The 8 second suture. saying. Pasted over. Some for until deletion.
Some for until automatic deletion in 86,400 seconds. But for now
8 seconds. Then a picture of a cafe drink. For 8 seconds.
For 8 seconds the best thrift day ever. and the beach. and sliver
of milk resting the bottom of the iced coffee cup.
Until. take down
he says. The
pole. Piled. spun tarp and twine
to stake. Entwined.
The man on side streaming. a video

The man drowning
not himself. There are 350 people watching.
the man has 13.7 thousand followers on X,
formerly known as Twitter. A commenter on his post
writes, “FAFO” or “fuck around and find out”
a phrase embraced by White Supremacist organization
The Proud Boys. “FAFO” could be considered a

those in the know. Those whose ears are attuned
to the frequency of the sound. To the outside
air coming in.
Whistling. It’s singing
the national anthem
out of tune. Over gun flag.
Over gun flag. Branch and bullet
and baby carrier. Strapped.
Someone is smiling
with apparent fucking clarity.
Another commenter on the post writes
of the so-called peaceful protest
“They need the marines to come in.”
In
here. Here
in. is not a piece.
The violation …
represented …
It has become …
BS!

What right now I think most.
The man in the mic, singing.
The few kicking soccer on concrete.
The violinist playing mid-morning.
The text checks. The grass stains.
The quiet broken by laughter. The everyone
of it all. The coyotes. The 8 second video
of two people dancing;
