People are hardly as great as pizza
Not nearly as cool as ice cream,
My dream of them often surpasses reality
While reality is shy to show itself
I see the child with a basket of flowers
Visions of candles and candelabras
Thought of places rippled in poems
Hearts drenched with electric fire
Swing high for the better times
sure enough was all good love.

The monkey in my epic was the most intense and climactic part of my book. It was written in Chico about ten years ago. The image of a purple female monkey in a cage just came to me like much creative stuff that flies into the mind. The area around the cage is dark so all that can be seen is within the cage. The monkey freezes the main character because she produces sympathy and pity and because this is an exotic animal. The monkey seems totally harmless until it very suddenly lunges at the main character. A major rule in the book is nobody ever gets physically harmed or touched. Therefore the monkey is electrocuted by Christmas lights which are also purple. The monkey is not dead, but the main character has time to leave the area safely. I have no idea why this part got a response from people. Perhaps the question as to why the monkey acted thus. Though the book is a nightmare, it is not the scary horror that we know from films that give it power, but the mockery of the horror genre itself. When it ends we go into a new age self help book in which all is good and positive for no particular reason. A reminder that even in the darkest of all places we know that our lies of hope and affirmation of confidence can lift us suddenly out of the funk of four hundred years. The nightmare was largely the mood anyway.

Windows on the beach..
In the dream sequence
I say you Hey
The she stopped
I had to give her a gift
And laughed
Sands of time flow
Our time in love
Could only be
For when she unbottened
I knew
You
Someway to safely
Place my naked body
Against hers.

I don't want to think it is possible that faculty are allowed to be abusive if they wish, but I don't and can't rule out that possibility. Reality has shown me much atrocity like this already. People who have power given freedom to use it. I don't like conflict, but being good is not in everyone these days. We are being hit with negativity on levels never seen before. That is why a good list of defenses is worth having.

Don't stare at the shadows!
The meaning of life is
A walk in an endless park
Where ticks a biological clock
Each moment is moved upon
Or sleep will be dark
For the light is ahead
The guides always fading
And the real is escaping
Press on
The hands of the blind will find
Hands that crush your body
And your mind
So cut apart the real time
The times of your life
Short
The spark itself chased
Is getting harder
Life is not the dream
It ends sooner than later
So soon
The stairs can't be
Unless the pace is kept.

How big is virtual space?
It tends to be at least half the size of real space, but it can be very small, even too small.
Honey?!
Into an up..
Start the pebbles running up the hill
Feel the cool air and rain
The memories return as flower buds
You had sensed something arriving
A belief from nowhere
Alive and telling.
It is a spy
She is now running
From the obsessions
Arrows zip past
All lone
Run.
Data Giant!
