The Absence of Wavelength

Smoke 'em?

Look at those cigarettes. Marie Condo a,
“Do they give you joy?” Or, you can
substitute with words “cancer,”
“bad breath,” “stained teeth,” “wrinkled skin,”
“smelly house” (according to others),
or “house afire” (never, ever take to bed).

It Takes More Than One Smoking Gun

Certainly, tobacco's aromatic supremacy
a sensory component of attraction, or

the sound of cellophane separating
from brightly adorned heavy stock box.

Slender red tape thumbnail sought,
tugged, unseal the underlying easily,
unclothe side-to-side just as a
satisfying ninja throat slit.

Twenty-four dutiful soldiers link,
sequester shoulder-tight, deploy
to the tender lip, teeth gripped ~
one hostage at a time, a smoking gun.

19 lines with the ‘all caps’ title tuck (coining it)
freevee (yee-up)

why does the title always need apply to the top,
framework the read?
Think outside the carton.


{dropnote:"My take"}: quote wrong, yes, but intended as mash-up. Undiagnosed with Aspberger's, to fit in, Abed intoning group argument with a sort of commentary, but be a part, offer a take, (hence smile, nailed it, need of Jeff’s acknowledgment) — share by modeled behavior via movies and tv condensed, ‘that metal lens’ that helps him make sense of a disordered world through ordered discipline of a medium.

I have just revealed the boy who asked dad, “why can’t our family be like that?” (while viewing a maudlin 70s television episode)
‘It’s not real,’ he simply responded.
End of discussion.

The extraneous…
For more value, google ‘gun a smoke’, ‘smoking gun’ for added value

For WakeUpAndLive ~
Interesting to know outcome of (your) smokes.

I find hardest is to throw away something after making that investment, in your case, the (servile) security net.

Crazy watching these shows (trope) where they get rid of everything that serves as reminder after breakup, or mom trashes all family 'junk' food (in ceremonial kitchen receptacle), then ladles some green, blended slop at that next meal.

Condo parodied for her 'if it doesn’t give you joy, get rid of it' mantra  ~ Gilmore Girls reunion episode, mom ordering people to haul everything out because it didn't give her joy after her husband’s death.{/dronote}


Smoking Guns

Cigarettes. “Do they give you joy?” Or, substitute
words like “cancer,” “bad breath,” “stained teeth.”
Maybe, “wrinkled skin,” “smelly house” (according to others),
or “house afire” (never, ever take to bed). Certainly,
aromatic supremacy a sensory component…
as hearing thumb-nailed cellophane separate from
brightly adorned pack. Each inside, your smoking gun.
They deploy, teeth gripped ~ one hostage at a time.
