light memory #2

every memory before i was 5 feels like a dream.

erkie was a our neighbor from across the street. she's a little bit older and taller than i am. what i remember most is that she was really nice to me and left me with a good impression of her. i wonder how she's doing. last i've heard about her my grandma told me she got in an accident in a carnival ride and she broke a leg or something.

today

a plane is ascending into the sky. the clouds are sparse, the sky is green, the white is brown.

the most depressing view of the city is the one behind me.

light memory #1

when i was in nursery school i would take the bus to and from school. one day the bus driver was driving awfully close to some trees and the branches would brush up against the side. i happened to be sitting by a window that day. the window was open letting leaves into the bus. i felt really curious and i wanted to touch the leaves while the bus was moving. i stood on the seat so my head is level to the opening, i stuck my arm out the window and touched the leaves at arms length. i didn't really get a kick out of doing that; it felt like tiny bats flying through my fingers, i just like the memory for what it is.

long lost dream #2

this is the earliest dream that i could remember: i am in the first house that i've ever lived in. it's night time and sleeping next to me is my mom. i head a loud commotion in the backyard so i peep through the window. there is a spaceship there. the craft is covered with aluminum foil and wrapped around it are christmas lights. the lights are different colors and blink in a constant succession. the dream cuts to a view from outer space of a strange looking globe. it's earth but in weird colors like yellow/orange/red and has a coral like texture. the globe has all sorts of children holding hands until they complete a circle around the circumference of the earth. they sing their song into outer space and their voices carry a long reverb and a space echo.

12 AM friday the 13th

i live like a slob but its ok. its when my room is a mess that i know i have been most prolific. my mom asks me how i find anything in my room but it only takes me a few minutes. plus, every time i need to find something it's an exercise for my memory. example: i'm looking for a universal AC adaptor and the last thing i used it with was the keyboard leaning against the wall over there. chances are the ac adaptor is right on the floor next to it. i like my room like this; its comfortable to live in. people dont respect unorganized people. i think organization is for lazy people. people who are after maximum efficiency and cant take the time to think about why things are where you find them. yeah... i like my room like this; it keeps my mind sharp. it makes me feel like an archaeologist or detective or someone that makes a living at being good at putting two and two together. i'm doing three things at the same right now. talk radio in the right ear (coast to coast am), led zepplin record in the left ear and notebook right in front of me. hopefully one day i'll have enough material in this book to make a movie.

long lost dream #1

i had this dream a long time ago before i was 5 that i was in a vacation house made of bamboo. it was night time and i was sleeping next to my mom in bed when i woke up in the middle of the night. the bed was under a window that opened with wooden swinging doors. one of the doors were open letting the pools blue reflection into the room. i looked outside the window to see a lighted pool; a glowing blue rectangle. the water was blue and contrasted beautifully with the night. i remember being so mesmerized by how the pool looked at night. i still think pools look beautiful at night. there was a woman outside with long straight hair and she dove into the pool. i envisioned her silhouette gliding through the water and i too felt like a dolphin. there is an intangible feeling that i get with this memory as with alot of my dreams.
