It is all well and fine to tell students to read up to a certain point and then write, but that advice when given me has always been given as a way to get me to stop working or to invalidate work done.
That is why I so resent it, and this resentment is my topic.
I want to go through some kind of Jodorowsky style ritual to release all the pain I feel when I hear even a grace-note of this advice.
All the punitive and destructive advice that was “for our own good.”
In the dream-ritual I should perhaps kill someone symbolically, so I can be finished. I am tired of the nightmares I have now.
Axé.
