…about the introjected torturer. About the feeling of being imprisoned. You must go back in your box, back in your cage. The way I dissociate ever so slightly with this. Important: who has imprisoned me? I do not think it is the university. I think it is family and friends who imprisoned me here after … More A flash I had
Intencionario. Quiero abatir la excepcional preeminencia que hoy suele adjudicarse al yo: empeño a cuya realización me espolea una certidumbre firmísima, y no el capricho de ejecutar una zalagarda ideológica o atolondrada travesura del intelecto. Pienso probar que la personalidad es una trasoñación, consentida por el engreimiento y el hábito, mas sin estribaderos metafísicos ni … More La nadería de la personalidad
I would of course love to do a BFA in plastic arts, painting, ceramics, sculpture especially (I would never have known that had I not tried it, I did not like sculpture to look at, very much, until I had a sculpture assignment and to my surprise, really liked it). I would also like to … More Postscript on fine arts
First, do you think Language Log is incredibly pedantic and literal minded to feel as they do about Orwell and about The elements of style, or am I simply not modern and/or not doctrinaire enough as a leftist?

I woke up this morning very clearly aware of the reason I do not like to wake up: waking up means waking up to the university slapping me in the face and then putting me in a barrel of water and covering it, so that I will drown. I will then have to spend the … More La méditation pour cette semaine
Black Warrior Review takes multiple submissions but some of the places I am interested in, do not. Slipstream does. I am looking at Beloit, which does not and which I like, and also Ibbetson Street, and other places around the Gulf because of some of my subject matter. I am not sure about Slant. In any case, I chose a multiple … More Submit
Moi et ma belle on avait été au bal On a passé dans tous les honky tonks S’en a revenu lendemain matin Le jour était après s’casser J’ai passé dedans la porte d’en arrière. L’apres midi mois j’étais au village Et j’m’ai saoulé que j’pouvais plus marcher Ils m’ont ramené back à la maison Il … More Here are those lyrics
The best are older: with the unrest time brings, No absolute remains to bind them fast. One scrawls on rock the names of hallowed things, Letters and hieroglyphs that yet shall last When darkness measures with a martyr’s eye The glories shed by life’s unchanging tree. Another, curbing vigour on his page To movement, makes … More The Forge of the Solstice
