ASTRO NUT

By Alex Bienstock

I was talking to my therapist in the asylum how I need to walk on the moon and post it on Instagram before I die.

I was rambling with spit pouring out of my mouth

telling him how I get migraines and no sleep

because I need to walk on the moon before I die

and post it on Instagram so Charley notices.

He was concerned and telling me to calm down and come back to reality.

“Doctor you don’t understand, weird things have happened, faceless people have gotten me onto IMDb, my schizorambling has been heard by 30k people.”

I’ll be at work or in bed and having insane ruminations

about absolutely needing to take a picture of myself on the moon and post it on Instagram.

I began shaking back and forth and my eyes starting spinning like ping pong balls in a raffle drum

until my head exploded into a million chunks of flesh all over my therapist.
