Pothead Poltergeists

"I am still staring at this leaf on the ground. No one sees me. No one cares so they don’t see me. That’s my power. I’m the disappearing boy if you will. I’m also sort of a Jesus of Suburbia/ St. Jimmy, and whatsername, a minority of most things, a basket case, a walking contradiction, a demolition lover, a fashion victim, Helena, Maria, 80, 16, a grouch, a reject, king, Fink, the lady of sorrows and a castaway most of all. Blah, blah, blah, whatever you want to call it. I have many more names from many more places, but you are the type of person to know these names and understand them. To cut to the quick: I’m you, Sugar."

Let's just say for a minute that you are invisible. You're a ghost for a day. King for a day. What would you do with your time off from life?

"They don’t notice me because when I said I was the disappearing boy, I was not kidding. I am invisible to everyone. A car hit me down the street about ten minutes ago..."

Seriously, please leave me a comment! I really do love them, even if it's just to say you looked! Thank you to those who do. I love you all. xoxo
