eaches.
a treeblind fringe of spanish rock ,arching like an aqueduct down to the beaches ,where it grows vinelike into the gaps in your memories. the mist burns off by noon ,you.re still on the painkillers ,staggering through cobblestones looking for rain.

a little too shiny ,a little too bright. one year vanishes into the next ,like a snake in its own mouth. the way you try to keep things smooth ,just hydraheading your life down to a few moments ,a fraction ,a matrix ,an input. then nothing.

she lived a lonely life ,crowded with people. couldn.t see the trees for the forest. juniper red. blood orange. dropped a guitar in the ice machine.

for centers.
how a girl misunderstood you once ,and it really hurt. why was that other country such a knock off your usual guard? where for once the places you were stabbed could bleed ,the places where you were bruising began to heal. something warmed by foreign suns ,center crawling.

eleven kinds of loneliness.
still ,of course ,tethered like taffy to your home. the way you always smelled like records ,copies ,see through fingers and gluesticks. tries to crawl away ,but you.ll carry it inside. with boredom as your pedigree.

for sideways.
after you.re calm ,when you.re back home ,when the nervousness wears off a little ,and you.re trying to keep it a little too tight and people all seem to be staring ,your heartpulse is the roar of a bus slamming on its brakes to pick someone up who.s running ,screaming at the driver ,smacking the windows hey man wait up wait up.

in twine.
homecoming ,with the smell of PCP still stiff across guitarstrings. remembering everything differently ,but you can.t be surprised when it.s still unchanged. christmas lights sting brighter in cold crisp. the air hangs there without moving ,like a strung cat.

i.ll keep me to myself ,you lie. i.ll change on my own. you never did and you never will ,the place that you occur will never let go your blood. the way that you talk will never be your own.

and so stuck again ,with the pen in your teeth. trying to think as usual failing. what you jot down and then years later declare to have seen it. there is no past for you ,only idols. only bridges you burnt to watch them sigh.

.bitmoth. Saint Paul, Minnesota
12 records were created under the name .bitmoth. between the end of 2001 and the end of 2003. Primarily they consist of small fragments of guitar improv, sifted & pulped with a titanium MacBook & various software to reveal buried memories & suppressed emotions to their creator. Each section (& title) an abstract collage with a temporal dimension. The grammar was wrong, but it was very particular. ... more
