A Viennese Angel - Breakfast Particles

'Viennese Angel' (12 Feb 2025) Breakfast Particles I leave the dining table nervous, half-drunk coffee and a bitten tongue, forked and knived. You - burnt corners of toast and a teaspoon facing down. You woke up before me and placed the tablemats askew, by habit I straightened them. Are we competing for the last sigh? No, we won’t eat together. The crumbs would hitch a ride from my lips to your beard (cross-transfer, cross-contamination). You’d ask me to speak and it would feel like TV static - huge textures, metric electrocution. Put it more simply, I envy your elocution. Mine’s always the slurred lullaby. I run through semantic fields, jump the fence. I should grind the medicine to a fine powder, you should pass my words through the sieve again. It’s ineffective, a half-baked thought experiment, too easy to exist by sticking to the edges. The atoms will collapse if I let this course run through. I’ll dry my hands on the sleeves of opposite arms and push you away. Please, you’...

Non Fatal Strangulation

I can’t describe how it felt to be unconscious. It’s just an absence, not black, not golden, just a segment of time cut out, the seams re-stitched like what the surgeon did to my eyelids at seventeen. I believe dreams only take place in the rush of resurfacing. That friction of being pulled through the membrane of consciousness was the only way to remember I had lungs. It was the shock of realising I was tricked. The jolt of missing a step. I hated diving, moving between the two worlds. Nothing happened between the collapse and the resurfacing. I only recall the sensory boundaries: the ringing sound, surrender the refocusing of eyes on a patterned wall, trying to remember my identity and location. It’s lost data. I say nothing happened but really something happened and there is no way of knowing. Without evidence, without memory, it just doesn’t exist.
