the action, the caption- the main attraction

Tamper Resistant
I'm Temper Persistent
Tagging along on my insanity walk

Playing the victim
I'm learning to trick them
Making sweet sounds in my liberal talk


You're watching me floating
and inside you're gloating
back stage passes to my sexual play

Inside the green room
the fun begins real soon
pick up your press badges on the way

Yeah.

the action, the caption- the main attraction

I removed a ton of stuff from may through last month. Mainly the story I am writing as it is being looked at now for /possible/ publication - but I don't want to get my hopes up in the case D.U.S.T. doesn't make it to print.
The side story for it, P.N.W.D. is also coming along fine and the documented warring between the various groups is taking me a lot of time to get through all the interviews. All of of he said, she said, he died, her fault, etc. going on.


So, yeah - until I know if I'm going to be made an offer to put it into print, I'll holding the stories off the net.
Those of you who follow the recounts, I am sure will understand.

There's an arguement going on outside and I'm looking out the window at it. I step out onto the balcony to get a better look or to tell them to knock it off cuase there are children sleeping.
Next thing I am on the street with them and now there is more people. A smoke bomb of some sort is thrown and we're all running. I head into an alley and run into a dumpster. Even in my dreams I am clunsy. Gah! This kid pops out from behind the dumpster and asks me if I brought the bag. I say yeah and we run to the end of the alley. There is this tall hill and we start running up it. We're jumping up it like in counter strike, I even hear myself going "boing boing boing".
At the top of the hill is a tower, the kid reaches in the bag and pulls out a key. The key has a round blue stone on the top. It's very beautiful. He puts the key to the door but doesn't try to unlock it. He does this a couple times and then looks frustrated. He says, "Someday I'll be able to do it" and then hands me the key. People are running everywhere behind us. I go to unlock the door but there is no keyhole. Now the weirdest thing happens. He calls me Melinda or Malinda and tells me to do it right. oooookay. I put the key to the door where there would be a lock and it glows blue. Then the door clicks, like a lock unlocked. Then I woke up.

I'm developing like a photograph
slowly
in the dark.
