Washroom Mirror

And Other Reflections

I’ve begun assembling a new book called Washroom Mirror: And Other Reflections — a collection of micro-poems, journal fragments, and off-register ruminations.

Here’s a peek inside:

ATOMIZED MAN
Across the arid wasteland of my journals—among Worries and Weather Reports—lie scattered fragments of myself.
Indeed, if we were to assemble them all—we might have the makings of a considerable man!

PSYCHONAUT
In the aftermath of a Henbane Experiment gone awry, I found myself stranded on Baxter Street—inconsolable—
And wholly at the mercy of the menu in the window of Mr. Tang’s…

CAFETERIA LIFE
There’s really something to be said concerning Cafeteria Life—
However, having said that—
It’s already begun to lose some of its luster…

ELECTRIC BILL
In the wake of an overdue rent and unpaid electric bill, I concluded that real events of an appalling nature were being imposed upon a largely Fictitious Man.

PARTICLE ACCELERATOR
I spotted X about a block away on Doyers Street, so I turned down Pell in order to avoid him. But then I ran into Y—who is even more intolerable than X. This put me in a foul mood, so when I encountered Z on Mosco, I insulted him—
And now we avoid each other.
