I’m over my
flu now. Wow. That was a tough week. I’ve still got a cough, a persistent one,
but the worst of it is over. You never appreciate your health until its gone,
do you? I’ve felt rotten for days on end.
I’m still
thinking about that creature under my bed. I know for a fact that if I use
amphetamine again it’s going to pop its head out for a good old ganders. God help
me then. I’ll be at a loss. It feeds on my using, my pretend agent Clint from
PAUSE just said. On my using, and on my fear. I could hear its claws scraping
on the carpet, man. And I could smell the dastardly thing. I think I’m going to
write a poem about it for this month’s library event. I was thinking about
writing a book about it. It would be a great place to start in a book. In the
genetic-engineering lab, where the thing was conceived. How do you pamper a
creation to meet someone’s darkest fears? A rat, a dog and a snake isn’t too
much of a bad start, is it?
I’ve been
reborn since that unhallowed event, I feel reinvigorated, rejuvenated,
rekindled. I feel like I’ve cheated death. I may have said this already before,
but it needs saying again coz its true. This raw crisp and original state of
mind needs to be cherished and respected and clung onto tightly until doomsday.
I can’t afford to throw this feeling away over a bag of speed and some boring
old pornographic material which I’ve seen a thousand times. It’s true that the
novelty comes back after a layoff but it doesn’t last long unless it is
actually new novelty material, which it isn’t. I’m bored by the same old
willies getting gobbled by the same old lippy cake-holes. Well buy some more,
then, you say. But that is opening the
Celluloid Corridor well beyond its sell-by-date, a dangerous thing to do. I’ve
got it under wraps now. The wolves are not calling at the minute. Let’s try and
keep it that way, eh.
I shared
about a silly old bracelet the other week. That power has worn off. It was
nothing like I expected it to be, returning back to it. A porn star with a
bracelet on which was the same as a church-goer! There the connection ends. I
don’t think anything will take me back to that creature under my bed, stinking
the flat out and scratching its claws. It was too scary. I was terrifically
lucky I didn’t lose my flat. Any sane person would have walked out. Telly’s in
there, running water in the kitchen, boiler’s in the bedroom, it’s all yours. But
I amassed some bravery from somewhere and got it battered in the end. With a
little help from my friends. I must just thank Lydia again for stroking it. That
was a beautiful gesture and it may have saved my life.
