if only i forgot. if only it had just been a mistake. but alas, it’s much much worse than that. i did it on purpose. better yet, i didn’t do it on purpose…didn’t not do it on purpose. that’s better. now that we’re clear you can see through us. transparency is important. ask me why later. from where i am i don’t even need a telescope. i want to see the future. it’s not far off and it’s coming up fast and furious like ol’ vinny d. on meth and syrup laden with codine and yellow jackets. gee-whiz get biz. also important, time. it’s of the essence. don’t ask me why. ever even stage left. something my grandfather told me. he was a clock. all gears and pulleys and weights and levers set to the sweetest precision by the hands of the tiniest german dwarfs to the tune of bach or something i’m sure. had to be. he was just that good. beside the point you will find a book of matches. if you smoke, go ahead and light up. if you don’t, you’ll be instructed further when the fire marshal gets here. safety first. 364 days without an accident. don’t put your hand in the machine unless you want staircase fingers. which, if you have fat fingers on the other hand you can let them do the walking for a change. hoooo stop. it’s right over there, but i’m not picking it up. clearly time is up.
