DOOMGRL and Other Short Stories
(no Trivial Pursuit additions this time)
-I imagine a younger DoomGrl in a 5th grade classroom
being introduced to Haiku poetry. When the class is
turned loose to write independently, Doom raises her
hand and asks the teacher, "can I use just two lines?"
-I imagine PatientOnion in a pre-chef phase when
he tried his hand at abstract art. Jackson Pollack
pays a visit to his class. Stopping in front of Onion's
easel, he bursts, "what the hell is that?"

No, Saturdays are normal:
Tom Brite: often early in the evening on friday nights before we

[How does anyone ever let go of anything? My book was a long glove
clasping the dark shape I had loved. Inside the glove was one very
pale young hand that had never learned to grip skin. It was so
raw it looked wet. I fell into the eyes of everyone I passed on
the street. Food seemed impossible. Children thought I was a
child and tried to play with me, but I could neither play nor
work, I could only wonder why. Why do people live at all. I read
every single ad in the classifieds section each week. Real Estate,
Employment, Counseling, Home Sevices, Getaways, Musicians Market,
Dating, Women and Men Seeking Each Other and Themselves, Chance
Meetings, and Automotive. I had narrowed it down to either Power
trio seeks excellent 2nd guitar for heavy rock
or Angela Mitchell
LCSW, therapy supporting the integration of body, mind, and spirit,
and world
. I settled on Angela Mitchell because the power trio
wanted an experienced gigger, and I didn't know what that was. But
as I rose in the elevator towards Angela's office, I whispered the
words "experienced gigger" to myself, and they calmed me.]

["Can I turn on the light?" he asked suddenly.
"No," said Portia.
"I want to see you."
She shook her head and pushed the shirt up over his head. Then,
realizing that he couldn't see that she had shaken her head, she
said, "I don't want to."
"What?" He stopped everything. His hands on her back, his mouth
at her throat. "Do you want me to stop?"
"No." She smiled. "Don't stop. Just ... I don't want to turn the
light on."
"But you're beautiful," he said, not understanding.
That's beside the point, she nearly said. Instead, she kissed him.
Already, she loved kissing him. She loved the roughness of his
lips and then the dark softness inside his mouth. She loved the
way his tongue knew how, to glide against her own tongue. She
loved the language, first faltering, then fluent, their mouths
had devised and how they were congratulating each other for their
cleverness. She tried to remember if she had ever been so deeply
kissed. She couldn't, suddenly, remember if she had been kissed
at all.
"Let me," he said, somewhat indistinctly, as if she were preventing
him. She nearly tore off her sweater, she was so impatient. Every
part of her seemed to be caterwauling, selfish, whining. She felt
crude and pushy. She wanted to make him do what she wanted, and
he knew exactly what that was, only he wasn't doing it fast enough,
and that was maddening. She found his head at her abdomen: not
high enough, not low enough. His cheek turned against her skin as
if the universe attended his wishes. She moved against him,
thinking, come on.
From outside, the night-splitting noise of a motorcycle, out of
nowhere, heading off somewhere. It was a rude noise, like
something guttural and enraged. It stopped them both. "Born
to be wild," said John. She understood that he was smiling.
She tugged at his shirt.
"We don't have to rush," said John.
But we do, she thought, actually disliking him for an
instant.
The bed seemed to tip in the darkness. It felt contrived,
controlled, as on a fun-house ride. She nearly rolled away
from him and had to pull herself back, hauling heer own
weight against his length. Why was he so contained? Wasn't
he the one with the long-ago crush? Wasn't lust cumulative?
She had the briefest instinct to slap him, but then she felt
his hands between her legs and she forgot what she was so
angry about.]
