buster the sheep could never accept the mediocrity and anonimity that was his lot. He was convinced that the current ill treatment he was undergoing at the hands of the farmhand would someday be a chapter in his biography titled 'a star is shorn' --- 1. Realise your lover has had a bad day. Sometimes this will be obvious, sometimes you will need to be told. This can vary with the lover and with the day. 2. Invite your lover to undress while you draw a bath. Do not try to undress your lover unless it has been a bad AND absolutely exhausting day. 3. Leave your lover to soak as you go prepare the garlic bread or scoop the icecream (lover's discretion) 4. Knock. Do not be offended if not granted entrance. Otherwise, enter. Offer food while or before you offer to sponge/ scratch/ rub your lover's back. After the bath, dry your lover with a fluffy towel. 5. Bring your lover to bed, enfolding the cool damp post-bathness in warm blanketage. Murmur lullabies, whisper stories, or do nothing, according to the moment. 6. Sleep. --- town of the unloved- the local ftd florist is going broke --- "If falling in love is anything like learning to spell, I don't want to do it. It takes to long." --Glenn, age 7 (thanks J.T.) --- "In an upstairs room, a modem made a connection." --Lincoln Spector, Computer Currents (thanks sandy santra) --- Strange being that close to R. again, and good. Funny being back in that realm of striving for subtle sensuality, my hands able to admire the graceful arc of where her side curves into her hip during a long backscratch/rub, even through a thick blanket. Still trying to wrap my head around her saying that her feelings for me aren't different from what they were this winter, when touch (and everything touch implies) was part of our lives... the more they stay the same, the more things change, I guess. --3/28/97 --- "Context is strawberries" bas-jan@seneca.demon.nl --- There is too much pain in the search for perfection. Come into movies 5 minutes late. Leave some books half finished. Add a smudge to a drawing. Find the beauty in what is, not what could be. Don't allow "perfect" to become a synonym for "beautiful" --- abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz --- easter morning, listening to Beastie Boys' Liscence to Ill and starting on a 1000 page biography of Thurber (and writing about it on a pilot) Culture is weird. --- "Every man should be lucky" --E.B.White, when asked to account for his literary achievments --- Someone's Law: All the easy problems have already been solved --- Science Fiction is our Sword of Damocles --Graffiti at Harvard Square --- "better to die in battle with a god than to live in shame" --Pharoah, The Ten Commandments --- did and how did pre science cultures explain specific allergies? What kind of demon lives in strawberries but only for certain people? --- "Can it matter where or in whom you put it?" --Mark Antony, 81-30bc --- "a world beyond your wildest imagination"--Warriors Of Virtue. What, so they're saying that their imagination plus some special effects is that much better than my imagination? Like I'm going to believe that, when they come up with a slogan that lame. --- Did she consider me and find me wanting? Mostly she would have found me wanting her... --4/9/97 --- "When life gives you poop, make poop juice." --Max Canon's Red Meat --- I want to have been Man Ray. Too bad. NEO-DADA NOT DEAD. Whatever. Culture is it's own Caliban. How can you satire what satires itself without realising it? "To create is divine to reproduce is human." --Man Ray --- "Looking back on your life, what would you say satisfied you most?" "...I'd say women." --Interviewer + Man Ray --- I must become the founder of CYBERDADA, and its foremost creator. An uncorruptable art form because of the bullshit line information wants to be free- infinite copies can be made, and who but an overmoneyed idiot or iconoclast would buy a piece of it anyway? --- homina homina homina --- |
