Total empathy feeds bread to the sun. The sun atopic with spikes for hands, is reverse-engineered into Chinese factory rooftop / Nebraskan robofarm / deforested flat pixellate, recognising it in these disguises is a step in the right direction. Each dog takes the twist. Speak in the fourth person. Now if we can get down to brass tacks the point was to boldly go into the deepest recesses of the darkest caves of god help them with or without a softly speaking big stick to bludgeon at least a couple barrels of crude out of the tar sands in your busted thighs. So cut me some slack — you know it ain’t easy — It finds-me-with its plates of illness — china and petri, ‘shard and glisten’ — I think Batman would read Baudrillard and then he’d come out with a very heavy response. What they are trying to tell you is you are wearing the wrong bra for your shape and situation. Reading is basically impossible because of the song in your head. Something in me sees a nail and thinks oh no this is poison. True or false: The world will or will not end. I shall speak about men’s writing: about what it will do. Man must write his self: must write about men and bring men to writing, from which they have been driven away as violently as from their bodies — for the same reasons, by the same law, with the same fatal goal. Man must put himself into the text — as into the world and into history — by his own movement. The future must no longer be determined by the past. I do not deny that the effects of the past are still with us. But I refuse to strengthen them by repeating them, to confer upon them an irrevocability the equivalent of destiny, to confuse the biological and the cultural. Anticipation is imperative. That’s from “The Laugh of the Minotaur”. But these stories of Jewish souls in gentile bodies are only a small minority of the holocaust quilt. Buck-Morss herself is syncretizing here, if we can equate terms to emblems — “extraordinary rendition” (our complicity with US torture at “black sites”); “rhizomatically” (Deleuze & Guattari) mapped onto the Middle Passage and the growth & relational structure of Haitian Vodou. The “community of trust” she speaks of … well I wonder whether that has been true beyond Revolutionary times, or beyond the communities of trust that constitute individual hounfor. Everybody (in Haiti) knows the story of Boukman, Bois Cayman, the black pig that was sacrificed, the petwo loa whose fire and vengeful power were called upon to help fight slavery. The revolutionaries of Saint-Domingue required more than earthly power to beat the world’s most formidable colonial powers — they required divine participation, they invoked it, they demanded it, and they got it. Then what happened? I was invited to Richard Tuttle’s house, and I thought I’d go there and see a piece of paper on the floor, and they’d be like “Don’t touch that, that’s called The Volition of Myth” or something. All small and local fires are part of the general conflagration: that’s the nature of fire, which only had to be brought to earth once, against the wishes of the gods, and immediately it was everywhere, like Coca Cola. OK. Hell weekend was pretty hellish but at the end of that wedding almost everyone was gone except for the best people and we all sat around speculating on who was fucking in the out-of-order stall in the women’s bathroom and it turned out to be the two people who had everyone’s car keys, so, that was kind of hilarious I guess. OK. I think about this one-man play I saw on the lower east side some time in the late 90s. It was spoken by a guy who had been mistaken for Hitler by an underground Hitler-cult. I watched it in one of those basements beneath a storefront on the Lower Eastside. As he told the increasingly absurd and therefore true story of his abduction and consequent physical ordeals and pleasures, the ugly, middle-age man grew sweatier and sweatier. I thought he was going to have a stroke. A pig stroke. But he survived grotesquely and spectacularly. The walls were covered with newspapers and the air was stale. We didn’t survive. The cult didn’t survive. That man with his pig stroke had infected the entire velvet underground. Add the web-like structure that forms the (baryonic) backbone of the universe to your leopard’s equivalent, please. “We’re dealing with a living thing”, someone told someone, “visceral mind, expanding and contracting, an orifice bleeding.” “Shows what I know about lemurs, Ed.” Thank you so much, Santa Barbara Optometry.
