Uses of Bother.

If a certain thought bothers you,
wave your fucking wand at it or
something. Smack it with the

big star at the tip, turn it
into a poem, or a song or

a piece of currentist sculpture, or

- if you have the time,

a painting in oils, and then

it won't.

Bother you so much. You might
even be a touch grateful

for the imposition it made. An inroad

upon some un-blazed trail,
upon some as-yet uncast part
that you scripted yourself, and stepped in

to play

with a motivation you didn't ask
the director to tell

oh, you don't say.
