Chewing the fat, I was caught between idol gossip and perverse fantasy when she found my lazy eye. Searching for things I had no interest in, she appeared timid, and yet her gaze told me there was enough spirit in that chest of hers to mutilate a thousand faces. There’s another whose hips comes… Read more

  Some Brazilian kid slumps by the side of the road. Some other comes and points a gun at his face. There’s no blood, only a muffled pop that makes the kid fall backwards into some bushes. It happens quickly. The sun blinding me as we run across the road, I slip my fingers around… Read more

  She breathes the same as I. These skies that crawl like lice. Acts of terrorism as I take my morning bath. How can a man wash in peace while having the horrors of the world pushed down his throat? The only time I get to feel like a king is knowing my dick still works,… Read more

  There’s music. It sounds like Bloc Party. Some girl has done too many lines and keeps trying to bite people. She goes for my leg, but I kick her away and go stand in the garden. Reading Kafka and swaying from side to side, someone lights me a smoke while trying to talk to… Read more

Just an animal that can’t rise above its primal urges. She appeared before me from out of… Read more

  They say there’s a cloud of chemicals travelling to the Milky Way. In thirty million years it will hit us. I say ‘us’, but by then there will be no traces of ‘us’ left. Everything we ever were and everything we hoped to be will have long been erased. As a species, we will… Read more

  Angels and butterflies that crumble beneath my touch. All those nights where the bodies crushed me- where so many faces did their best to make me just like them. So many women I wanted to be with, and so many trees that felt the warmth of my piss as I made the drunken journey back… Read more

  For her, I swim to the ocean floor and hunt puffa fish. Rising to the surface, I place them at her feet then suck the baby toe on her left foot. On Mount Olympus, we make love while the stench of whale guts haunts all those who get too close. She tastes of oranges,… Read more
