Whistle.

 

It's a gold metal skull, the surface indented with crystals, leaving the hallow eyes, nostrils and mouth that grips between its teeth the stalk of a red rose. It’s comforting

to touch as my mind drifts to the apparition of an over 6-foot tower blast of scowling rabid dogs at my ear. At some stage I was pressed to be concerned by the appendage

in my skirt I assumed a species of butterfly. If you stroke its wings it dies? I asked my Geography teacher, he would not concede and threw me out, to stand in the

corridor for the duration of the lesson. When I discovered its proper name. It seems misplaced to consider it a species of flower which at first

I thought. Unlike an autophiliac I refuse to concern myself with exhaust pipes. I suppose there could be easier things to personify as dead. Though I refuse the

accusation that eroticism associated with inanimate objects is allied with necrophilia. At times the skull hast felt like a perverted object I might submit. Am I ambivalent

about necrophilia? I'm patient in trying to coerce the gold metal skull into being a preserved state so none of the parts rub off. I don't need the gold metal skull to be dead

to consider I then have her. She just happens to signify the dead. Why might I else consider her like a flower or species of butterfly? They don't last very long. The one

emerges from the ground into the air. The other metamorphoses from a caterpillar into a butterfly. They're largely inconspicuous, I could assume, to the Auto mechanic or Plumber and

Politician. But there's still the Botanist to be concerned by. And the Lepidopterist. I refuse to substitute such language for Gynaecology. The gold metal skull is of no

interest to emissions experts. It doesn't become incensed where it departs. It has no feet to stand on, but they weren't bound. Neither can it be considered an Angel, but

it's most un-human. I might not pretend to be part human excluding how I feel about it. One can steal skulls and make a claim for a boundary, location, position in space,

transposed fossil organisms taxonomic rank, class and file. But with this skull I don't think they make it that specific as I'm otherwise a mongrel and I'm not

religious. I'm Ignostic yet I'm still confused about the gold metal skull with a rose in its mouth. It refuses the binary male-female. It will not allude to the reduction of

X-Y chromosomes. Aside I couldn't assume to know my own, less strictly anatomical, my attention is fully on the rose in its mouth and the indented crystals.
