If I seem a little distant or incoherent, it's because I am. I am not a NeuroTypical and I have no desire to become one. This is simply the area in which I stim my creative impulses.

31 October. Hallowe'en (All Hallows' Eve). It was once the Eve of Samahin, named for the Aryan Lord of Death, Samana, the Grim Reaper. The fracture of space and time when the seasons changed was supposed to allow contact between the worlds of the dead and the living. The dead might reappear and the living disappear.

He studies to describe the lover he cannot become failing the wildest dreams of the mind & settling for visions of Truth The tatters of his discipline have no beauty the he can hold so easily as your beauty He does not know how to trade himself for your love Do not trust him unless you love him Do not forget old friends you knew long before I met you the times I know nothing about being someone who lives by himself and only visits you on a raid 28 October. In 1988, according to the British Journal of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, a 15-year-old girl, born without a vagina, had given birth (presumably by caesarian section) in Lesotho, Southern Africa. Unable to have sex in the normal way, the girl was having oral sex with her boyfriend when, at his climax, an ex-boyfriend burst in, catching them in fellatio delicto. The intruder stabbed the girl repeatedly. One blow pierced her stomach and fallopian tubes, allowing some of the ingested sperm to seep into the open tubes. Thus she became pregnant.

That "senusal phosphorescence my youth delighted in" now lies almost behind me like a land of dreams wherein an angel of hot sleep dances like a diva in strange veils thru which desire looks and cries And she still comes at me with breathing breasts and secret lips and bright eyes... sometimes he just sits in his room he spins in his chair f a s t e r trying to catch a glimpse of the camera he thinks ought to be there adding a letterbox style to his life catching all his cardboard cutout smiles and half-assed wit he gets by on... and in the end there are no closing credits no ending monologue just me...

21 October. Saint Ursula, whose day this is, was supposed to have been killed in Cologne whilst accompanied by 11,000 virgins on a pilgrimage. Ursula ('bear' in Latin) was another name for Artemis, the Great Bitch, Mother of Animals, Mother of Cats, one of whose shrines was, unsurprisingly, at Cologne. The church dedicated to her in Cologne has so many relics that Lord Byron was moved to comment: 'Eleven thousand maidenheads of bone, the greatest number flesh has ever known.'

19 October. Saint Frideswide's Day. The bones of the patron saint of Oxford were dug up by an extremist Protestant reformer called Calfhill, mixed with the bones of a nun who had married a monk, and reburied in the cathedral with the new inscription 'Hic jacet religione cum superstitione' (Here lies religion with superstition). Ironically, by this act he preserved the saint's bones when so many were completely destroyed by Cromwell's enthusiasts. It is unexplained how this obscure saint, under the name of Frevisse, came to have a cult at the village of Bomy in the middle of Artois in France. Thursday, October 18, 2001
cast up the heart flops over gasping `Love' a foolish fish which tries to draw its breath from flesh of air And no one there to hear its death among the sad bushes where the world rushes by in a blather of asphalt and delay... a very purely naked young virgin with very long and very straight straw hair and wearing only a very small bird's nest in a very existential place...

If I hear one more geriatric white male talk of "Justice" or "Morality," I think that I might just vomit... and I think Korzybski might roll over in his grave... Sunday, October 14, 2001

"There are only two things an ugly girl can say to me to make me go out with her; `My father's rich,' and `I can take out all my teeth.'" -- Sean Saturday, October 06, 2001
I can't be the only one who's thoroughly disgusted with the sweeping measures passing through our so-called "house of representatives" to take away our rights. Is "terrorism" but the latest justification for the theocratic fascism that Bush and his cronies have wanted to implement since day one? or what? Friday, October 05, 2001
A friend just sent me an email quoting George Bush saying we should all go to Disneyland. It didn't surprise me. I kind of suspect George lives in Disneyland all the time, with Mickey and Goofy and Osama bin Laden and all the "faith-based organizations" in the world. As Voltaire said, "The only way to comprehend what mathematicians mean by Infinity is to contemplate the extent of human stupidity." The plight of Bill Maher reminds me of something Ezra Pound wrote about London in 1919: "A single intelligent remark can destroy a man's entire career." Just as the War Against Drugs would make some kind of sense if they honestly called it a War Against Some Drugs, I regard Dubya's current Kampf as a War Against Some Terrorists. I may remain wed to that horrid heresy until he bombs CIA headquarters in Langley. ~~~~~ I turned on CNN a few days ago and a White House robot announced that the rebels in Chechnya "were" no longer freedom fighters but "are" now terrorists with "clear" links to Osama bin Laden. CNN provided no details about whether the transformation occured in a sudden miraculous flash like the transubstantiation of the host in a Catholic mass, or happened slowly and gradually like Darwinian evolution. ~~~~~ In a related bulletin, Russia pledged its support in the War Against Some Terrorists, and will presumably start with those bastards in Chechnya. 5 Ocotber. In 1829 the schooner Mermaid sailed from Sydney, Australia, but sank in a storm on the fifth day out. All hands survived, and were rescued off a rock by the Swiftsure, which was dashed on rocks five days later. The Governor Ready rescued both crews, but caught on fire and was abandoned. Everyone was rescued by the Comet which sank five days later, and all hands were rescued by the Jupiter (the fifth ship), which struck a reef two days later. Everyone was rescued by the City of Leeds. On board was Sarah Richley, sailing from England in search for her son. 'By chance' her son was one of the crew on the Mermaid. the endearing quality of synchronicity... Thursday, October 04, 2001
4 October. Feast Day of St Francis of Assissi (1181-1226). In 1224, after a vision of the crucified Christ held by a six-winged seraph, St Francis developed bleeding holes in his hands and feet, greatly impressing witnesses including Pope Alexander IV. The marks looked like black nails which protruded considerably, as though a real nail pierced the limb with its point and head projecting either side. Domenica Lazzari ehibited a similar effect in the nineteenth century. There are over 300 recorded cases of stigmata, with a much larger incidence amongst women. Wednesday, October 03, 2001
well, my computer seems to be functioning (somewhat) again, so updates will be a bit more regular... also, soon (I hope) I will do a full site renovation... don't expect too much, though... |
