Radiation and “The Bear”
Rendo, 8/2026
I call the machine that is controlled
by these three woman:
“The Bear”.
It is twice, no, three times my height;
With a tongue that extends several feet
beyond it's open and awaiting mouth.
On an earlier visit,
I had to get into the tongue,
so that the woman could use something like a bee,
to sting me.
Once below my navel,
and again, to my left and right hip.
Today, I am told to insert myself,
in the length of the tongue,
that has been made ready for me.
These smiling woman,
cover me with a blanket,
and tell me to lower my pants?
I was given a rubber object to hold against my chest,
just before they slide me into the Bears mouth.
Then all three women ran away.
The Bear begins to groan.
Above me, as I lay there,
I noticed a raised two foot circle,
Possibly, a wart on its tongue.
Something starts to move on my right.
A paw? No, something else.
The tongue slides it way to the left,
with clicking sounds,
Like a cog railway.
After a few minutes of silence,
It slides again to the right,
with a clicking like a freight car
clicking over the tracks.
Then, all is quiet,
until the woman appear again,
and send me on my way.
“See you tomorrow?'
PART 2 last radiation
In the dark of the night,
When all have gone home,
The Bear, reassembles.
The components of the Accelerator
offer themselves at once.
He stands tall;
sniffing the midnight air.
His eyes glow,
as he contimplates all who will enter his cave,
From tomorrow's NEW schedule.
Anger fills him,
When he realizes that one man
will not be returning.
Treatment is finished.
I am that man, that got away!
And a new day for me,
Begins Now!
