I Dream of Djinnie

Dark. The absence of light. If this ain't dark, don't know what is. The place where black holes go to sleep. The place has never known light.
In a fucking articulate mood. Fuck it.
Feel free. Light. Weightless. Like plankton in an ocean of --
-- Enough!
Hunh?
-- I've had it!
What!
-- Not even half the average lifespan, and you've driven me nuts.
Can't see anybody. No surprise. Mysterious voice echoing all around and inside my head!
-- How long does it take your drug addled brain to realize I'm talking to you!
Okay.
-- Quit your bleeding running commentary for once, and listen to what someone else is saying.
But who-what are you?
-- Finally the dimwit realises he's not alone. don't take it too personally, most of you humans have this isolation complex. Fuck! Now I'm digressing. To answer your question, I'm Jambi.
From the Pee Wee Show?
-- Bollocks! No! Before your arsehole of a mouth opens again, I'll educate you. I'm Jambi, granter of wishes, the Big Bad Blue Djinn himself.
But for all I know, your just the size of a neutrino, or even a figment of my imagination. You do realize im in sensory deprivation here.
-- Its for your own good that you cant see me, or you'd fry your brain. Not that it needs much frying, youve done a pretty good job all by yourself.
Hunh!
-- Exactly!
___________
-Lets cut to the chase here. I'm the cunt whose been at the receiving end of every wish you've made, big or small. From yer Ma's teat to that lay youve been lusting after. Every-bleeding-thing.
Fucking-A!
-- Very fucking-A indeed. And this is your moment, ya wee shit.
Wait a minute, whys your accent all messed up?
-Well look at yourself, ya shtoopid. Ever seen anybody more messed up?
So that means --
-- That means fuck all. I've got better things to do than not be seen and just heard by the likes of you. Gotta hand it to you though, your one hell of a distraction. Faaack!!!
Chill man!
-- Enough. Enough. Enough Enough Enough. Now listen up. Your at the ultimate crossroads, and your options are unlimited. And you have one wish. The one decision ya ken? Make it and yer futures decided, to put it in the simplest, most fucking obvious way ever possible.
Un hunh.
-- Now make it. Wish. Thats what you've been doing your whole pointless life. Go on.
Some time?
-- Time ain't the issue here. It isn't even here. Now is then and what will be is what was. Savvy?
Great.
Decision time. What I've always sucked at. What do I want?
To start afresh. To have her back. Be uber rich.
Be somebody else. Awesome axe skills.
AAAAAAARGGGGGGHH!
This is my fucking weakness.
-- Having fun, eh Kiddo?
Aww shut the fuck up man. there's some serious thinking going on here.
How can I make this easier. My little bag of party favours. If only I had my sta-





-- Hmm, he's gone and done it. Lesseee where this takes him. Cant say much bout his decision. I didn't write the fucking book you know..
-- Hmm.
-- I just might miss the wasted little fuck.

Tomorrow

Where does all this time keep going? Checked my pockets. Found a watch. What could that mean?
Cigarettes are a precious commodity. Not anymore. Hah. Ive reverted to the old shag baccy and skins.
Tripped on something. Physically that is. Damn, some kid's OD-ed or passed out or something in my room, while i was busy chasing the Light Fantastick. Damn.
Get him outta here. Take cash from wallet. Need it to clean up. Hmm, Shirosagi Corpse Cleaning service would be useful right now. Tempting. Unfortunately, phone link between fact and fiction hasn't been set up. Lets break the fourth fucking wall. You, hey you! Get somebody to clean this place up. Doesnt it hurt your aesthetic sensibilities!
Look at him. Looks like me. Hot damn! Astral projection .... no, Ketamine overdose .... no. Did I just off myself??
Great, looks like I did. Im dead.
Hmm
Damn, my stash!

6:15
Today

Spread-eagled on my bed. I should be thirsty. But strangely am not. Phone rings.
I headbang to the tune. Message arrived. Exam in 30 minutes. Hmm. One complication, left eye seems to be glued shut.
Interesting.
What happens when you shoot up through your eye?
What did I do to my eye?
Maybe its sleepy.
Speed?
Zip. Snort. Gasp.

5:45
Today

Back in my room. Just checked the watch. Not sure how I got back here.
No theft too. All my stuff and the stash is here. Whew.
AS long as the merchandise is safe, everything is cool.
And I've also got something to dip into, for times like these.
Zip. Pop. Ahh!

5:15
Today

Its bleeding 5:15 in the morning. In a speeding auto. Headed straight for the college gate.
We just megabumped over a speedbreaker. Reckless.
Driver turns on the radio for some reason. The clangy bhajan creates a "psychedelic India" environment.
In my head. At least.
Another bump. This specimen of genus Drivus seems to be quite the adrenaline junkie. Or high on something. Probably both.
It piques my curiosity, purely out of professional interest.
Im not all that sober.  Beer and quite a few doobies. Half expecting Drivus inebrius to turn back and give a maniacal stare.
I can see him. With his red eyes big and bulgin. Gigantic eyebrows too. I had seen his real face and could see through his flimsy human disguise.

Don't want to die. not in an accident. Not in an accident caused by Satan and his chauffeurs sodomy baby. Not when I have with me my entire cache of red eyed dreams, trips and visions.
At least I wont die sober.

Another major swerve. Around nothing. He is seeing things.
He has red demon eyes. Maybe he can see things I cant. Hellephants?
Is he trying to save me.

Not possible. Drivus inebrius is well known for its lack of altruism.

Reality hits hard. Its like sleuce gates somewhere in my mind have opened up.
Not good. Shit. Cant take more of it. Vile stuff.
Dig my hand into the stash bag. Its a lucky dip. I pop whatever i find into my mouth.
Toke. Exhale. Another toke. This J isn't doing anyone any harm.
Its all good.

Or not. The road doesn't seem to reach its destination. Hmm. Something wrong with that statement. Hmm, found a logical error. Or an illogical accuracy.
The road seems wobbly. More than usual.

This is a piece if fiction. It took me 4days to get in a state where i could concentrate enough to type it out. It could've laid for eternity at the back of my Ayverything notebook.
