2023-09-28 I woke up a little after midnight at my workplace to my coworkers
|
||||
finishing close. I put my backpack on and scooted out and down the hill to find
|
||||
the old lookout point one of my former roommates had mentioned once.
|
||||
|
||||
The path was blocked by three boulders placed so as to prevent automobile
|
||||
through-traffic. I walked by them and up the hill through the path. The
|
||||
streetlight faded behind me and soon I was alone among the dark silence save
|
||||
for the chatter of the crickets and varied twig-snapping of unseen nocturnal
|
||||
creatures, the friends of Nowhere, Maine.
|
||||
|
||||
I came to a pile of strewn trash among, if it had been warmer, which would have
|
||||
been flies I suppose and bits of nastiness that are begotten by nastiness.
|
||||
Hoping this was the only bit decrepid in this desolation I walked further. It
|
||||
was cold and I was tired so when I saw the needles and blood I made no reaction
|
||||
even after my slow realization of what had happened there.
|
||||
|
||||
It was not a place of honor, there was nothing to be had or found there, and
|
||||
had I known better I would have fled immediately to avoid the fate that had
|
||||
befallen what was left of whomever that had found ruin among the brush and
|
||||
uncaring wilderness. This was the fate of the addict when they find an
|
||||
apathetic owner of a chainsaw and these were the pieces that, should I chose to
|
||||
indulge in mainlined drugs, will compose myself as well. Dogs or cats or foxes
|
||||
or wolves had got to what was left but what had happened was apparent. The baby
|
||||
stroller and diapers and formula pouches told the rest of the story. I stood
|
||||
for a while comprehending this mess, processing without being able to process.
|
||||
Nor it being safe to do so.
|
||||
|
||||
My grandmother has no sympathy for addicts though even she wishes they'd get
|
||||
better and supports the free dispersal of naloxone for those that need it. She
|
||||
doesn't see why an addict should redose rather than purchase warmth or water,
|
||||
not to mention inhabit a crack shack rather than find work and hearth and life.
|
||||
She's smart. She's never looked down drunkenly at an empty bottle or
|
||||
experienced lethargic purple haze and stupefied daze that accompanies the
|
||||
shortening of a rolled joint. She's never craved a cigarette like I have. She
|
||||
couldn't imagine it. She couldn't imagine my knowing the feeling. She can't
|
||||
answer my questions for her - how sober lukewarm shelter could compare to pure
|
||||
happiness coursing through a vein, or how hydration could compare to not
|
||||
needing to care about any need, physical or emotional. Perhaps money can't buy
|
||||
one love, but there are things a person enjoys more. At least at first.
|
||||
|
||||
I've been through the downward spiral slipping from shelter to smaller shelter
|
||||
like a sieve, looking only for acceptance and a place to sleep and finding
|
||||
scarce the former and only more expensive the latter while my pay doesn't
|
||||
increase nearly as quickly as the cost to live. One shot would kill me years
|
||||
later after hundreds more, perhaps not as directly the first as the last, but
|
||||
the first would be my death all the same. I know this. The sound ice makes when
|
||||
it hits water and feels the sharp difference in temperature accompanied by the
|
||||
whoosh of butane and naked laugh of the crazed fiend hungry for more pleasure,
|
||||
more solace, a hoard of catharsis never to be experienced, only kept like a rat
|
||||
keeps food for winter, and the drawing in of the needle and the flick and snap
|
||||
of the glass and rubber band and push of it in and the mind out and let the
|
||||
reason bleed out of you in transparent drool and snot and let the eyes droop
|
||||
and heart swell with unearned passion. As much as it would be my comfort then
|
||||
it is my recurring nightmare now. And it's not inevitable, because I will make
|
||||
it out of this hell before it chains me and loses the key.

everything sucks so fucking hard
|
||||
|
||||
So. Roommates got evicted. Seeing the writing on the wall I packed my shit up
|
||||
and left. Now that my repack's done I am now comfortably contained in a
|
||||
backpack with strapped on sleeping bag and scooter on my shoulder. Where to go
|
||||
next, though, was complicated.
|
||||
|
||||
2023-09-26 I got out of work and went back to my roommates. They were squatting
|
||||
and for lack of space elsewhere I slept in the kitchen in my clothes and jacket
|
||||
next to the litter box. The cats kept staring at me. It smelled like shit and
|
||||
piss and the cats would paw at the litter to toss it on me. I got an hour of
|
||||
sleep and went to work early.
|
||||
|
||||
2023-09-27 I got out of work and scooted up the street to a Dollar Tree around
|
||||
which I scooted and found a nice clear area behind a railing next to a parking
|
||||
lot. At work I had debated leaving the scooter. It's weight and something else
|
||||
to carry. Eventually I just brought it though and it lay next to me in the
|
||||
brush.
|
||||
|
||||
I laid out my sleeping bag, opened a book on my tablet, and silently and
|
||||
comfortably if a little bit chilly read Hulk comics until I heard a distant
|
||||
yell.
|
||||
|
||||
You mother fuck!
|
||||
|
||||
I looked up but I couldn't see the source.
|
||||
|
||||
Get out of here!
|
||||
|
||||
Perhaps it was voices. Perhaps it was a trick of the air. I laid back down. I
|
||||
was wearing all black and my bivy was green against the olive brush. They
|
||||
couldn't see me.
|
||||
|
||||
I see you out there! If you're still there I'm going to fucking kill you!
|
||||
|
||||
Night had by this time fallen. I sat up and got out my telescope.
|
||||
|
||||
At work I had also considered leaving it behind.
|
||||
|
||||
Two camoflouged cameras against the walls and two doors. The second one opened
|
||||
and then closed. I was visible and I had probably been made. I began to pack my
|
||||
stuff, quickly. Then the SUV arrived. Black, big, and it circled the parking
|
||||
lot like a cat about to pounce on me. It's at this point I strap my sleeping
|
||||
bag on halfway and with a glance at my former spot I got on my scooter and
|
||||
sped. It started following me.
|
||||
|
||||
I scooted for a cliff, jumped off my scooter and jumped down onto the wet grass
|
||||
sliding to a stop. I took the time to strap the rest of my sleeping bag on and
|
||||
then from that ledge jumped down and scooted down a side street. Left. Right.
|
||||
Left. Right. Left onto Lisbon St and eventually I was back at work.

|

|
||||
I was huffing and puffing and tuned my UV-5R to the county dispatch but there
|
||||
was nothing, city dispatch is encrypted and I don't wanna bother figuring it
|
||||
out so I assume whoever was after me was not police.

01 "It's pretty nice." Nice didn't begin to cut it. In fact, it was the
|
||||
most beautiful wax sculpture I had ever seen. It depicted a life-sized nude
|
||||
woman with intricate detail: hair so fine you could trace individual strands
|
||||
down to their split ends, make out the scoring of her flesh and the lines in
|
||||
her palms - including wrinkling that on the animate would indicate lack of
|
||||
moisture. "Why the injury?"
|
||||
|
||||
3: Is your dog nice?
|
||||
?: All dogs are nice.
|
||||
3: Like. Can I pet your dog?
|
||||
?: That's up to the dog.
