Too Far Gone

35

The car.

Wind and rain.

It is dark in my eyes.

The dark talks.

I am dark.

You do the chop now.

Cut here and there and everywhere.

Why the winds?

Cuts everywhere.

Look they lie here.

My belly.

Not the baby.

No chops.

Yes chops.

The cop.

Chop a cop.

Sibhon!…Sibhon!…Sibhon!

I am Dibbly, dubbly, do-do Sibby Dibby.

Mommy love you, yes she do.

For the fucker man says to do.

I am Sibhon…what?

You are the bloody one.

You are twenty-one.

He says to fuck.

Fuck yes.

Fuck is good.

Fuck is right.

Fuck at night.

Fuzzy Wuzzy is the bear.

Fuzzy Wuzzy put it there.

What? What? What?

Blood. Blood. Blood.

You are the bloodmaker.

They make it so.

I am bloody.

All the blood.

I am here.

We are there.

There is much blood everywhere.

I don’t want to be here.

Take me away.

Get the baby.

Lies. Lies. Lies.

The blood?

To say the truth.

I have to remember.

Hack Chop, hack chop, hack chop.

Find her, find her, why?

Take me back.

Don’t like it.

You go back, when you

Hack, hack, hack.

I will not forget.

I am not done.

They lie.

They die.

Not I.

Not I.

It is dark in my eyes.

I am inside a whale.

Remember the chop, chop, chop.

They say lies.

Where my eyes?

What’s that sound in my ears?

Is someone coming?

A cop to chop?
