You wonder if this is gonna happen with every person
Point and shoot / last thing you see

Little dots of light all across the horizon,
Like driving in the night sky

Once you get back to the dollhouse,
You should go out to play more.

And you do a double take at the headlines from back home
American things happening at the little slice of America

[as part of the "field research: united states (august 2026)" series]

"field research" are little travel logs/meditations - this set has its themes arise out from observing other trans women and the tensions that come from me self-imposing a role as an observer, a fly on the wall with a camera. it has been done before. the previous field research series (the japan poems) focused on something like urban disillusionment in spite of everything that is novel and strange. there is some of that here.

scream out to the valley that things are fucked and unfair poking burn spots with the fag against my ingrown hairs in-between the sealed up cuts on my arms that start to glow red as my body starts to rise in temperature strike like matches you can wake up early in the morning when you have a good reason to need to the landscape scales steeply, with it's contours holding it's insides like an empty bowl the hill is too sloped to jump off of reminds me of back home take too many parts apart, have to reattach a few come back home to the last night I spend with you your things are being put in a box and your things will be moving in soon too many things being taken out too much things moved to one room the death stairs eyes it's next victim the flowers coming into bloom about twenty or so days until I see you days getting longer, things not getting any worse things not getting any better. things not getting less hurt thistles caressing my legs, sun missing my eyes god knows god...

what's another tranny in a hole extol virtue expectance must fight for acceptance liberation only gained when liberation is for all but i keep myself locked upppppp heads will roll your own respirator first in emergency others second urgency worst at the first step its because i got a death wish i try to avoid anyone that comes too close youd think reflexes from a soulslike i've never played the game the adversity of avoiding your death is too tiresome what's another tranny in a hole my mind wanders from its source heads will roll what's another tranny in a hole what's another tranny in a hole one more number and one more body to prop up in disdain disgust, pity, fear, a little head served on a pike for you to wave in faces detached from the rot and lack of warmth and the flaking skin, you can't smell anything coming from a 5-6 inch LED screen. observe the processes of objectification, statistic stratification. you can shove your whole arm up my ass and through ...

brave teenager (goodbye from the person who loved you)

It's gonna take a while for my clothes to dry Maybe by then I'll get to be with you Another night in this room  Bright glowing rectangles keep me up It's like magic I like to pretend Our love, you and I I turn the volume up real high  I can't sleep well without hearing you  We'll tap our noses and squeeze hands And will you keep your face covered and hidden still? I want us to see each other Our faces and our bodies Wearing pretty clothes Or nothing at all I want to grow old together even if our odds aren't convincing And I think you should learn your bass guitar So we can keep us in rhythm, we could start a band I want to strum until my fingers are tender and sore So I can feel it better when you squeeze my hand We can live in a house Or in a one bedroom apartment  Or in a tent Cause home is when I'm together with you You rustle the sheets sleeping and the microphone picks it up sometimes It's like I can feel you move and we're sleeping side by side...
