a better night?
last night: up at 3:15, couldn't
     fall back to sleep
so tonight, stayed up later,
     made myself tired.

must pee first.

much better.

new show on the telly to  watch:
     Queer Eye for the Straight Guy.
it's a queer, queer, queer, queer world,
   and we have no fashion sense.
the unbalanced tase of the het
     assumes an elite class of those
      "in the know."

the alien is now eating out of
     O'Neill's hand.
   once again,
     we are the ugly intruders.

or perhaps there is no metaphor,
     no metaphor in the world at all.
   only overactive imaginations.
