poor Penelope
days woven, nights unraveled
waits on restless tide
- Penelope and the Suitors ~ John William Waterhouse (1912)

feeling like Ariadne
deserted along the strand
waiting for music

I wanna be your monster
- your undead lover.
Lay me on your slab
- not undercover.
Up in your lab
- I’ll be the best monster
- you’ve ever had.
True my bolts are rusty
- and my stitches itch.
That’s nothing my good
- mad doctor can’t fix.
Strap on the electrodes
- flip the switch
- turn up the voltage
- till I jerk and twitch.
Thunder in your ears
- lightning in the sky.
The castle is on fire
- but my love won’t die.
Pitchforks and torches
- as the flame scorches.
Escape I cannot allow
- - I’m your monster now.

I love to see and hear the flocks of wild green parrots.
They take to the air each morning and at sunset to do battle
with crows in the palm trees over Long Beach, CA.
various permanent markers & sharpies on tinted paper (orig. 4.5×6″)
