You know he's telling em, "now walk across the room" & they're all just tottering back & forth trying not to topple over in their oversized gift shoes as he adult babies at the oval office desk, door open for all to see.
Conkers Once, you smuggled home some of the blue stones that marked the graves beyond the hedge. For the time you secretly held them, pressing indentations in your palm, they seemed like hardened lumps of water, the possibility of transformation. You might become something else, like the dead. The kids swing horse chestnut seeds, bigger than marbles, from a string. The object is to bash open the wrinkled meat inside. But when they swing and miss, they seem to be knocking at an invisible door that hangs between them, and that is worse. You have your own game, and you must play it quietly in your mind, just as the dead must swim in the field alone, each in their own rectangular pool. The rules are: count the sides of the rectangles. Graves. Gravestones. The rules are: if you don't count, you'll die. When the seeds of the maple tree whirl to the street, you peel the wing apart to find a moist green brain with the idea of a tree enclosed in its folds. Maybe the seed in your brain will never become anything. But there is magic in the game that barricades the door from opening

Forgot to water plant & it withered. I know now that, though I did not chose the time, place, or circumstances of my life, I deserve god's full wrath. I'm ready for the apocalypse I have helped to seed. If only they'd drowned me at first scream when I, acursed, gazed at the light of this new world.π
Look, we joke about Trump being the antichrist but if you told somebody two thousand years ago an evil king would cause black rain that sickens the people to fall upon Persia, everyone would instantly grasp thereβs some kind of demon sorcery afoot.

Got a sorry we missed you slip from post office on a shared door which leads past the second floor & up to ours. Only thing filled out on it was the date, part of the address for the nearby post office, & that it was a letter. I walk over & guy takes the slip & says, "This doesn't tell me anything."

"Alison Knowles stands out as the sole female artist among the founders of Fluxus, yet she has remained an enigmatic, underrecognized figure in the history of art. Performing Chance fills a gap in the record, bringing to π‘Knowlesβs transformative body of work," from π¨ to performance to poetry...
