the nurse whisperer


Finally. Flatline sleep. 
Narrow Sideways Channel. 









The Governor of Texas 
Finally issued a stay at home order
Which is weaker than the first one
But longer. Texas is like 47th 
In response sensitivity 
To this whole “Liberal Hoax Virus Thing.”
But that’s changing. 

It is my most sincere hope 
And prayer that companies like
Apple, Uber, Toyota, and Amazon - 
As they move their headquarters 
to Dallas, Houston, and Austin -
They bring with them some 
“California Progressiveness.”
At least socially.

It was just a few years ago
The State was fighting 
To keep Transgender People
From going to the bathroom.  
The right bathroom. 

The Old Guard is dying away. 
May they Rest In Peace 
And be peacefully forgotten. 
Amen.

another day, another couple of bucks


Much better sleep. 

I’m doing a fast 
To prep for that dry fast 
I’ve been wanting to do. 

People on Facebook 
offer to make masks for me.  
At first I was like “Nah!”
And now I’m like “Please!”



I grabbed the grey scrubs. 
I thought they were larges.
They were mediums!
Perfect fit. 

The Interstellar Blend
Super Hair Tonic
Is really kicking in. 
My hair is getting darker. 
I never would have believed it. 



So this virus is terrifying everyone. 
I’m not afraid. 
My position has not changed. 
I respect the virus. 
I give it wide berth. 
But I’m not under it’s control. 
It’s under mine. 
A little. For now.

dumb ass people
















Starting a fast today. 
Today’s the day. 
I’m ready. 
More ready than ever. 

No dairy! 
Can’t get it anyways. 
So it’s a good time to give it up. 

Also beer. 
I had a beer. 
“Yum!” thought I. 
“Yuk!” was more like it. 
Just like wine. 
It was kinda disgusting 
And disappointing. 

My body said NO
Even though my mind said YES! 
Ugh. Same shit. Different day.
