...and so the ride was already a long one.
LIL' Mocos slept on Jesus' lap.
Kickin' and whinin'
Chasin' a postman or a pizza delivery guy maybe...
Jesus looked at himself in the window, his face
Slappin' by the mercury vapor swells backround...
He looked old.
Amplified old...
Jesus said..." Man, I be lookin' old... Amplified old ."
"... Hey man, mind if I stand here awhile ? My leg's is a
gettin' just as numb as a dawgs brain...."
And Lil' Moco's jumped up and snarled a snarl
snappin' at Carl, the askee...
A calm Jesus said ... " Hey. Be cool..." Quietly. Firmly.
a moment,
Lil' Moco's looked at Jesus in the eyes...
He wanted to bite him, he'd caused so many
weird situations in his long and complicated life...
a moment passed
just a mili second
the order was set.
All it took.
Just two word's
and a look.
Pure Trust....
" Man that's a mean danm't dawg you got there mister
Damn't mean lil' bugger..." said Carl,
reachin' out a thin ' hand to Jesus' offered ,
thin hand...
Jesus said..." I'm Jesus, this is Lil' Moco's..."
Carl looked a Jesus
" Like the son of God and all that...Jesus..? " he asked,
Jesus said..." Yeah, you know, so a guy's gotta heavy father
or a really weirdly dominate shipping magnant dad
like Onassas or that guy ... what's his name...?
And Carl said..." Yeah I dig. You's a trustafari... sorta stuck like. I can dig that..."
said Carl, and passed Jesus a stick of Juicy Fruit...
..." Trustafaeri..." said Jesus, to himself.
" My god is this net ? I keep safely centered between these freaks and the reality
that there's always some net beneath me ?... or a key stashed somewhere
a phone number or address... A person is always there and glad to see us
and we can stay as long as we want..How come it's never hard ?..." thought Jesus...
Chewin' the Juicy Fruit gum...lil' Mocos a kickin'...
So, Where ya'll goin'...? " asked Carl, chompin' away
on a few sticks a juicyfruit...
Jesus thought..." Wonder if Death knows I'm gone yet...?
Ahhhh, I'm sorry, what did you say...? ".
To be continued...
Be well todo mundo,
