This Sad Box (This Dried Picasso Shit)


Fig. 0897) Flaccid Favorites


Things long missed in their teaching, be they still or be they quiet, our time is lessened nonetheless. Someone has to steer this anchor, sail it all the way to the bottom when the shops turn themselves over and their queues are carless as everyone’s gone home to vote. I’m tired of these convictions. Their pace has only become more dark as the night continues to keep itself outside.

Where can an angry man get himself a drink, where indeed? 

Tonight, Fear is out driving and it's little car is made for twisty passes that loop around craggy rocks. Let's talk about words and foreign papers with pictures of trees. Let’s read about sounds rattling our windows. Like buttons on bees, there's green on frogs and hope inside the time that's within all the unopened boxes. 

Sitting off in the shed by myself. I’m waiting for the church bells to ring their foul victory. In my today-brain, I'm a little bit worried and blue. There’s so much wet to go with this cold as it weathers around me, rolling like piss for my little jar, "my bed breaks, right along with the other trains in the rain. A fire breaks out and twenty five people are told, there's a pile of rubbish that's caught fire in the corner, going out of control.”

Our drapes might be burned up and the carpets stained from this soot and the flame but our sex is golden and as ripe as a casino can get. 

Where can an angry man be alone with his guns, the kids raise their hands. This hose is dry, this door is blackened, these steps are flavored with ash and plastic. After the fire has gone, it seems like I'm never awake. “There’s a rose that’s being favored by a clown footed bore. There’s a rose in every doorway. There’s a rose for every door.” It's easy to get lost inside of your clock as the mayonnaise works itself out. Driftless in the trashy snow. It should be buried like a canary bird hiding its scissors. This tiny box has no bright satin bows, only some stripes and loose foil paper to announce its presence.

Back when the kids roamed Paris at night with their pistols loaded, this one was inventing the art of rope for holding up their pants. Is this asymmetric Information? Is this where a million untrained leafs can practice the art of umbrella, where the slow relief of a hiss happens briefly. Then, once the rain has quietly stopped and everyone has survived this too, then we'll see that our tree of reason is busted up. Our change has left our small pockets even as our feet have dried in the soft glow of the bower's tiny flowers.


An ersatz bomb of NITROgen from COLLAgen once missed under the red RED rug / it's BOOT TO THE HEAD
JUST SWEATing SOME sweet stuff / getting WETTER and wetter the better your letter's get / When clearly, it's raining on the LAWN where it's BOOT TO THE HEAD
AS HOMELESS A FISH, as AWAKE as I FEEL. I'm AS LOST as I AM, as NAKED and doomed iN this light of MY room
There's bunnies with GUNS / Sitting in doorWAYS smoKING
Bachelors with BEERS, a squelched DEER and a squirrel / Gorgeous as two cows farting, arting, question marks
It's upside down like a frown or FALLING DOWN LIKE A BELL from THE wall of cardboard kittens in the light of this weird gloom / WHERE buffalo in mittens sing praise and tie their shoes, there's BOOT TO THE HEAD

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 ...
