Ratatoiulle 2099: Part Two
I can't even taste it. Its just texture. The eggs are slimy. The peppers are rubbery. My teeth feel just as malleable in my brain, like im biting into my own skull. I should be grateful really. I'm actually fairly lucky to have a rat that compliments my lifestyle. God knows id be a shit cook without one (and lord knows I can't afford a rat cooked meal in a resturant). I guess thats the other thing that pisses me the fuck off. The media praises Remy of old, the first rat to pilot a human. Everyone knows how amazing and wonderful Remy is. It's all lies. Remy became like any other privleged elitist, his meals were never affordable for the common man. I used to love his recipes as a kid, when I turned 10 and I finally got my rat implanted. I was so excited my rat knew how to cook too. But I grow tired of this same bougee omelette. Maybe I wanna march on down to Pops Pancakes and gorge myself on the syrup soaked slappers. Maybe I just fucking will do that...
"Nobody actually remembers the ripenning of course. Its a day lost to history, presumably because the rats had nested into our brains. Personally i prescrive to the theory of the HO1 Waves creating a psychic disturbance across all rats. That they craved intellect as we once did as early humans...but nobody really knows for sure."
-Burt Essner in his book "The Rat Race: How Rats Became One."
All thats left of our stars
Our memories from far away
A shrinking light
Is it dying?
Or just disappearing?
The tape tapers off into silence
Before everything grinds to a halt
Guts regurjitated out its mouth
A cry silenced by aching pain
And the void of space
Its all black tape...
Sometimes I wanna think through my storly maturely, and think through what fits, whats easier to understand, clearer, concise.
Sometimes id rather just write anything that comes to my mind. Just throw in a lot of words I like. Just because its fun
The Wired
Present Day.
Present time
To me differently
Where the past isnt so far away
Words like rock;
Fill out fossils of my soul.
Fill out the fossils
Of my fucking soul
Fossils like old computers.
Soul like the humm and buzz
Of a CRT TV.
Sounds like telephone poles.
Words carry
Over a billion telephone poles
Is my conciousness real
Or theirs?
Ratatouille 2099
The sink is dripping. Blood splatter reminds me of taking the hit. The sink is dripping, dragging like a cigarette. A delicacy, my final delicacy in a world I call dreary. What was once dreamy...
I have too much time to get lost in my thoughts so my therapist thought it worthwhile to write them out instead, write them out while the rat sleeps. Unfortunatley I just dont get much time to do that. With the neural link my concious mind is a dream state, and in my agitated restless state I may give the rat nightmares.
I was rereading the history of Ratatoiulle, of Remy controlling Linguini to create one of the most successtul restuarants in Paris. Back then it wasnt accepted to have the rats at all of course. I guess I got kinda stuck on the idea of how despicable rats were. How despicable they lived. Now were all despicable, and its just so damn normal.
Truth be told i never thought the rats were wierd until I started getting really high on weed. I felt like I, on my own, was something seperate from this rat. This congealed flesh that had grown with me to be a part of me. I feel...crazy.
I had to stare at my rat sleeping to understand things. Or maybe just to feel closer to who i was again. I watch it work in my dreams, watch it waltz the Ratway when I go out clubbing, high out of my mind. How can I or anyone be anything other then a rat? How could I remove a part of my face and still scream?
Rats were known to once inhabit the sewers in droves, living in darkness. Now we all live in darkness, in holy smelly darkness at the hands of rats.

I don’t want to be alarming, but things could get really bad really fast. OTW shared this today on Twitter, and I'm a bit worried about it 😅

Slendher
I graze upon you with invisible fingers
Memories of touch tug at me
Like puppet strings
Memories of you
Dwindle
My heart a needle
Thoughts a thread againat
A thymbel
I love you
But I am breathless
I want to eat you only with my lips
And maybe my mouth
You are small like me I think
A lot like me I think
I see you eldest
When I look in the mirror.
You are me
But beautiful and thin
I want to taste it
Sin
Borne in blood
Between us
I cannot speak it
I'd say I love you
But I am breathless

A trans woman looks at herself in the mirror
Iris?
Floating down river as my gaze glimmers over glass.
Weather me woman piercing lights
Cacoon a cascading layer of man, yet each layer ever so thin as paper skin
Blue eyes beautey basking in her light
Breathless at the sight of blood
Soaked in synergy inside her eyes eye
Where her male gaze fades away
Dissappearing into the mirror until a stranger meets her gaze
Its a movie in front of her
Moving picturesque
The beautiful is opaque
Evil is clear and transluscent
Maybe ill just end my sentences with an asterisk instead of a period because I always feel the need to clarify something I said later*
Are those waves of wind?
Tricks of light
Crying whispers inside my head
Where i see this moving image...
Is that water black
So black so I may see myself clearly
