She giggles then Farts.

She giggles then Farts.

She giggles then Farts.

The Sound of the Fart will not be a Honk, but more like a “Whoooosh”.


She will not Blush.

She will not Breathe-in.


Neither will You

flexible lumber


In an Empty Room. The Two of

You are laying


Nude (You are Nude). Nude (He is not Nude).

Nude (He thinks he is Nude). Nude (You wonder why you are Nude).


You stand up. Your back is to him. You begin flexing

your gluteus maximus (i.e. Your Butt Muscles)—(I think) as fast


as you fucking can.


You turn your Head & stare at him while you are flexing. He looks disinterested. You realize words

are not optional. So, You Scream (while still flexing your


gluteus maximus) “Stop looking at me I’m Hideous”—[!] He screams back: “I will

do as I please”—[!] You scream back “Okay”—[!] You keep


flexing your gluteus maximus as fast as you

fucking can

sleeping pills


You don't like the Idea of Sleeping Pills.

He comes home from Work, he walks immediately into your room.

You look at him. You smile.


He cold-clocks You. He does not carry you to the Bed. You like the Floor.



He enters your Room throughout the Night, every Hour, on the Hour.


He strokes your Hair. He smiles while he is stroking your Hair.


You are sleeping. You are sleeping so soundly & you look Precious.



He punches you repeatedly in the Face while you sleep.



If our calculations are correct, this will be how you learn to Sleep at a decent Hour.


& how you remain asleep throughout the long drawl of the Night.

You Scream “Not

She giggles then Farts.

You Scream “Not


again”—[!]


The Sound of these Farts will not be a “Whoooosh”.

The Sound of these Farts will shake you to your Core.


She will not Stop.

She will not Breathe.


Neither will You.


A blanket will cover both of your Bodies.


This will not be Pleasant.


There will not be an Applause.
