“What can you see? A lung-shaped tree and the nest. Who are these people? The same people. Why have they come here? To speak to one another. Is it so difficult for one person to speak to another? We are always getting back from places whose names we cannot pronounce. Will the names be pronounced here? We cannot pronounce them. How then is this a solution? So we will [or will we?] dance?” How old are you, Carl? I’m 50 years old not counting the 34 years I went barefoot. NUDE DRIVER THREW LARD. Jack Spicer invented the clap-on clap-off lamp. Fatty Arbuckle faked his own death and ended up running a go-cart track in Alabama. Hypersonic flight is a potential frontier for aeronautics. Companies know this well. Inscentivation, for example, owns a scent that increases betting on slot machines in casinos by 45%, while Bodywise treats its bills with an odour that makes them 17% more likely to be paid. Here facts are no longer sacred; we are at play in the bush of ghosts, free to opine and to generalise about “Africa” and “the African”. Then follows what the Paul Ryans of Amerika have instead of Vision Quests: a solid six months to a year alone in a room listening to Led Zeppelin, trying to decipher the lyrics. That is, I grew up in Westchester, New York with a pretty normal suburban upbringing, so I don’t have a good explanation for why I was into gouging out my own eyeballs, slashing up my body, and pulling out my innards and eating them. The installation consists of hundreds of Chinese scissors, a hovering massive cloud of scissors, suspended from the ceiling, points down. Visitors cut up a giant cloth, the fragments of which the artist, sitting under the cloud, stitches back together. Nine times out of ten still can’t induce vomiting (I cough up blood first! what am I doing wrong?) Nine times out of ten still don’t consider this a lucky break for me even though it obviously is. “Perhaps all sentient beings” are like wind harps. From this point of view, GDP is heavily weighted as an indicator of the natural misery of the environment one lives in. “I think I have contracted Ballistic Organ Syndrome Mad Quail Disease”. Whitey’s on Mars. The revolution will be favorited. Morgan has been listening to Bone Thugs in the parking lot of the Montessouri school since before you knew what favstar was. (“Aggressively shucking corn while listening to my new roommate fuck 4 people in her ‘den of peace’.”) Gatorade, chicken fingers, wept like a baby. It’s a slow process, realizing one’s place in a heat death universe, and here Hart makes a rope of his findings. He tugs us into whitened backyard gardens once we’re sweaty, jumping, diving in mosh pits, so that we don’t turn to ice, then he quotes Blake Schwarzenbach: “I believe in desperate acts, the kind that make me look stupid” and later replaces “stupid” with “both ways when crossing my fingers behind my back”. C major — snow, his daughter’s teddy bear, a hole in his sweater; E minor — The Minutemen, Bowie, Gang of Four, sweat dripping, cuts filling with pus; G — particle physics dipped in red wine, white hole bursting from your belly, each star telling you run … run, damn it. We arrived / the big empty / we follow yachts / the path of canals / we watch fires burn / [the wax museum] / Courtney Love tied down and thrashing / Michael Jackson’s felt codpiece / this is the nightly news / this is the promised land.
