You had to bring her scratch-offs akd a wizzie guzzle every day, at least once a day, and it was the john lennon lyric, custard in a dead dogs eye: i am the ape man, and so forth, hell she was basically the windmills of old holland, the powderee chocolate mess we microwave in the mornings, and the only thing that warmed up up was the sight of my handprints on the fields, were she had her 1965 doublewide set up, porches and all that bullshit, and her, too stuck in the doorframe to take to the porch, but her hair was perfect pornographic broomstraw, and it never really degenerated that fair, beyond the devil himself whispering in our ears, and if you caught her changing clothes, more upholstery shop that charnal house, mote national geographic than carnal knowledge, and me Tarzan all over that, going full coconuts before she got her serape on, like she just wears a snuggie or something, looking at my poor ass like im a science experiment that slowly going wrong.

It could been bladder prolapse or something, a mesh mishap or some other, i mean really, was i the "women's doctor" or her work husband? She said the stove was tore up, and me trying not to threaten to hit her in the head with my ball peen that my uncle give me--that shit was solid--and all the while, they said she was boinking a state trooper that had married into her family, and you talk about making for a toxic environment; i was stuck my own head at the time.
