Agent Godzilla and the Timepiece at Noon, A Jean DuBuffet Primer

fig.87.98) Gurgle splitter splatso mutha like a funk now

Anticultural positions are like metaphors for the birds that tweet loudest, Jingoistic, jingo on the way bird friend! Tumbling down the foxhole, shadows spraying their plumage like shards of chert or other chert birds that have been struck too long inside of this music box. They've been left to swim in this golden soup where a taxonomy of complex social cues is soon spent into serene bowls of white foam waiting for the privilege of consumption by the children of spastic judges or other goaded into math with their sayers of nay. Inside of here it's an absolute mess of tangled urges and corrupted potential, the comics aren't bad for children but the social environment that accompanies them is definitely toxic. It grows inside of the shops like a festering vine of great sinew where in real life girls and women are ignored or patronized and then it continues online where anonymous cretins are empowered to antagonize and strangle the same women or girls for their temerity of speech, speaking to typecast boys afflicted with art of being assholes. I'm terrified of the brain pestilence that's been sneezed around by these children of Den. They always smell like they're drunk and that they've been out gerrymandering again. It messes up the neighborhood and they know it. But they won't get a real job. How hard can it be to make some lottery tickets or sell the little gold seals at the end of the fine copper chains that are inside of those hard plastic bubbles. They say that we are not homeless if the spoons that we carve are our own. That we are the shape of a simple long box that deserves to keep our hands open and dry. That we are the form of the blanket, the closet and its brilliance too and we are hangers busted inside of the void. We are also the simple gravely voice of caricature that consigns you to whatever puddle you've placed yourself in this time. We are the nod that you'll never know. We sign our names in cursive and jab your nethers with our spite. We are terrible and prickly hard rapers and rapists of all that our neighbors will know. We are the venom in the oboe that kicks the toucan down the stairs. We are the night you sat in the tub. We are the holiday mess in the line you couldn't avoid. We are the door that just won't close. We have just tumbled into the world where we is me and we is us and you too. Them is they to call equivocal, enough? 
There's probably more to this...

The apologist and the appraiser have decided to stay put

dashed wet and grim Oh now, Reagan of steel glitter in pants with which to shake them on down. Oh now, I shit you not for these are the things. Yes in any order you should choose these are the things to please please me, Oh Yeah. - Unmarked letter signed, A to A They'll say to me that it's safe to say so much for ubiquity, for disenfranchisement, and the terrorism of privilege. They'll say to me, With all of the effects from these profoundly toxic effects, is the project of our shared humanity effectively being dismantled. Are these the idle thoughts and sad tidings of despots and the tyrant kings inside of their comfortable towers of raised muck. As I've said before, They're not so far gone as to be gone for the good of all. This is plain to be seen in a world of bent backs and gross hyperbole. I'll sit in any unused doorway. I'll be beside myself while every door is locked. I'll dream of the halls and listen as the curtains, the drinking, an...

Piles of leaves: Letters Campaign

Suddenly old but feeling perfect, my wet underwear is on the the floor. It's gathered round my ankle. Myko laughs, just as wet and full of piss as ever. The violence of our togethering already feels like more than something. I reach out, taking the back of her neck with my hand. She's stepping in as I lean over to write; Dear, Temperance, October, and Brine, You are more than a place to me. More than walls and simple chimes, but I'll write to you anyway. This you'll know as you read my words. From here beside the lark's buttered breast, from under the heavy lids and the bright side kettle where we'll hum. We'll hum together, Bunny. Dickens be damned, we're now brightly doomed. Soon enough we'll see, the forest within the trees. To you, Tigre PS. are more or only this bed, maybe the floor too.   We spend the day in, ordering takeout and hiding under the sheets. I get up and pee while Katt is talking about Milton. Her mouth's open, it's as rou...

Not the Willem DeKooning Retrospective (Not Even Close)

Willem DeKooning, Excavation (1950) oil on canvas Yesterday at work I bumped into this piece by Donald Kuspit on DeKooning's retrospective over at Artnet . Then this morning I bumped into this one on L Magazine's site, by Paddy Johnson . I don't know that Paddy Johnson demystifies DeKooning as much as she takes issue with his pallet, declaring it repetitive and boorish en masse. By contrast, Donald Kuspit writes an article painting DeKooning as a sadistic brute inextricably tied to the modern tradition in general and Picasso specifically. Together they make for some interesting reading, particularly as Kuspit never addresses the show itself in favor of drawing his conclusions from individual works. While Johnson seems to wear the show like an imaginary wool shawl, noting it's uncomfortable, out of style, and the zipper is broken. But she doesn't seem to get to a place that addresses what was actually there either, only what she felt was missing or to her mind ...
