Possum

 Survivors of aphesis, possums stand out as North America's only marsupial. They choose a marsupial lifestyle because the thimble-sized babies have yet the strength to bear this world's love. But they will grow, tho death is near, borne by mater, till they can live full possum life themselves. And live they do, with pointy claws and teeth, and a scrounging appetite. Their trick of feigning death when physically threatened seems casually unsustaining but they survive in a world of busy cars and roads to nowhere, just like you. What dimension might possums possess while faking a catatonic state? The opiate of owning never concerns them. Fear stands as just a contingency in the moment’s density. Possums hear the time it takes to live here. When every word has finished, so do you.

A new orange smokes upon the evening landscape, parlance for yesterday, then blue over the gushing land today. Stay happy with Obama, or paralax, or the motion across the kitchen floor, of something. Something secret leaves the hives. Something secret seeks the plant. The plant is poised like anything. Tussle continues, with new verbs vectoring the continuation. Obama bravely last the night, sweatshop slogan. Our President, haply, but effort contorts all known regions of meaning. The South, for instance, the West, the North and its East, and so on, dilations. There was a lake above. A blue and now it is shining morning lake. It was above, like the cat, or even more, when we are attuned. Obama battles with all words, Even as the proposition institutes some collision hardly to be compelled. All this exceeds ramifications.
