glass smashing
Trying to smash beer glasses after joining an overly candid round table discussion about infidelity. Can't seem to get them to break, though I've developed a mean arm.

near miss.
Surrounding the crippled war machine we waited for the men to fix it's busted guts. Turns out the repairmen were terrorists sent to destroy. The moment they got the tank working they cut us down. Like in those action movies where carnage is illustrated by the amount of flying chunks of cement blown apart by stray bullets, the grinning men blew the whole place apart, surface to air. Exposed, I had no choice but to batten down and close my eyes, hoping like a three year old, the tank would disappear. I open my lids, see the foreshortened barrel of the main gun staring me down from across the plaza. No slow motion jog shuttle to slow things down, before I could even hear the casement ejection sound of the 2 inch bullet firing, it had shattered my helmet into a hundred bitty pieces.

lynch
I was David Lynch's new cameraman. We showed up on location to shoot without actors or anything except the camera. He pointed at this long hallway and said "I want you to film that". I started filming this long slow shot backing up down this absurdly long hallway. people started to enter frame (actors) and say things (lines) to one another. then lynch said cut.
I turned to him and said I'd figured him out. He said "How's that?"
"All your movies are just documentaries about other dimensions."
He smiled.

octopus
being chased by immaterial acquaintances
i learned to stall them by picking off globs of my own ectoplasm
throwing it down, saying "octopus"
throw it.... "octopus"
throw it.... "octopus"
attracted like bugs to a bug zapping light they stuffed themselves on my spiritual
eventually cornering me when I ran out
unbound, my inner octopus and I showed forth its image
blinding black ink wiping away my immaterial pursuers
tentacles strong protectors
after
meeting with an experienced guide, I questioned
"to be you must become you can't merely think you are capable of being"
"yes" he replied, between spoonfuls

gaggle
surrounded by a rampage of children
breathing hot on our cars' windows as I roll them up
cutting one another's throats;
tourists in a death camp
we had to wait them out
so we could continue on down the road to the geyser
