I am the Builder!




Emile Gauguin.
You are Burgess Meredith
smoking a cigarette
after having failed
to a build a bridge
between Tahiti
and Moorea.
With a flower
behind your ear
you go fishing.
Your hair is white.
Your skin is brown.
Now you will paint
a picture of dragonfly
sunglasses. Now you will
read Henry Miller's
lesser known works
in a beach comber's
bungalo.

Maître Frenhofer

You are the unknown masterpiece,
lone planet signalling how?

[wave fire alliance]

Flies buzz
round an ivory rhyton
their green metallic bodies
rendering them knights errant
in a Pas d'armes, but
these flies buzz
round a hollow mishapen
skull.

[words][judgement]

Cinderella was beautiful, as
was Gilette, and a bit of a trouble-maker,
but what fetish could revoke
the joke that the foot
was not a symbol
of the feat
in its single?

The noisy bell.
The fairy tale.
apo tes rhyseos

[In other words]

The moral was not madness,
but blindness...

Pliny the Elder and Sr–Nd isotopes

An Unknown Beast Glimpsed By the Light of a Paper Lantern

do as thou pleasure wilt
for today we are
as fragrant herbs
bolting in tides
to the silent meadow
subsides

tier upon tier
amorous the black ear / loam
how cool the shade
drink

wild branches
reaching up if form
itself were
ecstasy foreborne
as agony the knot
of ornament
in the dance
of organization
with its own
failure

fay allure
and risible riffling
refugium
what pocket steel can
or will if
laurel launch not
in night
these trails
of paper lanterns
down into root-like
river canyons

Faulty Pronoun Reference




Heed shed ice.
Oui, the eau de cologne.

I do not see them.
They are invisible.

Hide shedu eyes.
We shall never touch
the heavy soft globular instruments
which once apprehended
a golden age.

The eerie world of the ancient dam
and the inhabitants that built it, and the
reservoir carved from solid rock.

I DO NOT SEE THEM.

For days we climbed upwards
inside the perfumed beard, until finally
the air became colder, and we found
soldiers, dead in ice coccoons, their
faces like ciphers, each a faulty pronoun
reference:

He did this.
She did this.
They did this.
I did this.
We did this.

It did this.

We watched their bodies crumble
as they tumbled into the chasm
of curly locks below.

Then, we continued on,
ascending magnificent heights,
strange perfume in our nostrils!

the burst of love between you

Omak Newton bears the crushing rose,

though dumb like the mantel of a grasshopper

inside it you drift
leopard bottles sloshing in your neck holes
but when you touch this
roots, hybernia, pop bottles' grasshoppers
thick disquetions upon tangled fingers
your rapt quivering extortions of rhapsody
the orgasmix of recording the twins
who are criminals (twin leopard heads are connected by a pearl)

only one strange door allows access
to the gekko (leopardon)

Always Build, Never Destroy



The picture leans out toward the land
held from behind by cables attached along the perimeter
of a disk which is scheduled to turn.

The hinge along the bottom edge of the picture
is submerged in heavily crystalline fists.

In the center of the picture a nude man stands
holding a grey table tennis paddle. The picture is not
of this man, rather, a real man stands at an improbable
angle to the earth upon the surface of the picture.

In the distance there is a hovering plane, whose surface
is bisected by a single laser line.

at the trunk till it yielded to his efforts.

A burst of wind and thunder followed,
and the hawks and vultures flew screaming away.

But these only gave place to a new foe;
for from the hole made by tearing up the tree

issued a furious serpent, and, darting at
Mandricardo, wound herself about his limbs

with a strain that almost crushed him. Fortune,
however, again stood his friend, for, writhing

under the folds of the monster, he fell backwards
into the hole, and from Orlando, and thus complete

the conquest of Hector's arms.
THE INVASION OF FRANCE (Continued)

Mandricardo, having completed his story,
now turned to Rogero, and proposed that

arms should decide which of the two
was most worthy to bear the symbol of the Trojan knight.

Tell the truth, and so puzzle and confound your adversaries.
You teach your daughters the diameters of the planets
and wonder when you are done that they do not delight in your company.

Suppose the world were only one of God's jokes,

Never contend with a man who has nothing to lose.
I have read your book and much like it.
To listen, by the sputtering, smoking fire:

"Now it's my turn to sing!"

And beyond, the same sound of bees
That only you and I can know. Les deux
The snowflakes are swirling, blotting out
Traces of those deep cuts lie thickly upon
Point, after all, when finally one reaches

His sightless eyes horribly watch the air;

David Hinton's Mencius

It's simple: To say anything about the nature of things, you must attend to the facts, facts in their original form. The trouble with knowledge is that it keeps chiseling things away. If intellectuals were like Yü draining flood-water into the sea, there'd be nothing wrong with knowing. Yü succeeded by letting water have its way, and if intellectuals just let things have their way, knowing would be great indeed. Heaven is high and the stars distant~ but if you attend to the facts, you can calculate solstice for a thousand years without ever leaving your seat.

The line mentioning 'intellectuals' seems to remind me of Louis Aragon's wry commentary on engagement (engage') with his parable about Goethe and Kant:

When Kant heard the news of revolution, he interrupted his walk. Goethe continued his. How pretentious of them both!

But looking further, I find what is intriguing is the consistency of ambulatory meditation, ie, the Schitzo's stroll*. Syntaxis as the true 'heartland' of the unspoken meaning, the root of Zen so to speak. In Syntaxis is already the one thing (singularity) and the ten-thousand things (complexity).. Here is a nice poem from Hinton's Meng Hao-jan to illustrate though there are many others:




And such a wonderful nod to the grotesque, both in its secret meaning, and in its popular form combined.
Look at the line:

First I hear you're resting at the Chang River,
Now I hear you're among Ta'i Mountain's wandering

dead. There's a pond here still tinged with ink,
but Autumn's tumbled out of mountain clouds,

Is T'eng among ghosts, or Zombis?
Is T'eng in a battle zone among the wounded?
Is T'eng himself dead? Mountain's what?
Trails? Body? This is a great way to concretely link
a sort of formal Zen (Chan) technique to a theory
of the grotesque. Is writing dead? What is a voice
absent its Master? Is 'an empty home' writing itself?

And then there is this strange idea, or perhaps just
timely of a pond tinged with ink. Would the washing of an
inking stone leave some visible residue, or is this a conflation
or integration of thought and nature? This idea of tumbling
gives us a clue.  "Tumbling as a word is specifically non-specific."

Same abstractional class as Syntaxis.

Another theme which may be rendered part of the cathexus of the grotesque / Zen, is monstrosity as naturalness, or rather, mutation is part of an unjudging continuum coterminous with nature:

Yü succeeded by letting water have its way, and if intellectuals just let things have their way, knowing would be great indeed.


This is also echoed in a poem by Meng Hao-jan:
 



Months and Years perfect old pines here.
Wind and frost keep bitter bamboo sparse.

Constant wind usually bends and twists trees in places like he is describing. It makes of them
strange bent monsters, but to an artistic temperament, in the Tang, there is a a deep calligraphic identification
at the level of the Chinese line and writing. Nature itself is a kind of writing, and writing a kind of evocation of nature. Images in nature seem to have a specific mood in Chinese poetry, and this tradition continues on for over a thousand years entering the Asian tradition all over the place. Japanese poetry expresses the moods of nature as an identification of human identity with that of nature. etc..

This is really a deeply bridging node for me

You have syntaxis, the grotesque, but also aesthetics, a way of linking Taoist-Chan-and Wabi-Sabi Aesthetics to a sense of sustainability and ecology. Harshness as an aesthetic agency.

Some things are perfected in this place, some problematic things are kept from flourishing..

And then there's the oddity of Mencius basically prefiguring the Mechanistic so-called "Western" world view:

Heaven is high and the stars distant— but if you attend to the facts, you can calculate solstice for a thousand years without ever leaving your seat.

Here is the bland scientific determinism the West has been saddled with for hundreds of years, but in the China of Mencius, it was a spiritual revolution!

Mechanistic determinism is Enlightenment! Love it!
West and East united forever in mystified determinism..






*And I would also like to note this surface connective between Schizze (Sketch) and Schitzo..
Perfect node for connecting Irronism and Syntaxis.

Mirrored Cubist Panther Beast (Tollroad Wanderlust)

the crystal monkey-cocoon-doorknob
kep' spinnin' and spinnin'
owling my eyes' atrancement further
until French doors in my throat
tracheally
a lumpy iridescent witch head came out then
with something jumbly flowing under the skin
on the left side

like rainbow fish-scaled cellulite
its surface flexed and shifted
but the schitzopodal eye-penises
remained rigid

knock knock
said fecund fence

glottal hey-zeus sea urchin halo
eware!

the naked being shimmered
its skin covered in a swarm of
hyper-illuminated gekko babies

langscape
with ultramarine longhouse

ultramarine balloon cigar
glottal French door owling
crystal monkey-cocoon doorknob head

he likes sweet apples

Negative Remains of "Line"

Annoying and Impoverished
the species lingered on for a bit longer
but was not exactly worth the effort

the massive social expenditures excited no one
corruption was how to put it
uninteresting ie the standard (normal)

the species itself seemed incapable of anything
but reruns

even the individuals who exalt
the individual seemed to have no stomach
for the more alchemical solutions
ie achieving escape velocity

barely muddy
consciousness continued on
as a sort of broken record

history like a hiccough
and Phanes

like a burning light in the sky
whose reality
as a sort of anti-divinity
no one could quite 'get'

when all it really meant
was

'slow organic engineering'

or "experimental breeding"

memics floundered
and died

and the only thing left
was bickering
and silence
every point is valid
and invalid

matter is always
a wheelchair for memics

idealism has been disproven
and one wonders
at how poignant

life itself as aphorism

earth is interesting
but ultimately
an 'objet cautionaire'

a tiny tale to illustrate
the conundrum of complexity
to the utopia
of nothingness  /

I Find Their Drawings Admirable.

Die Skizze ( ital. : schizzo ) ist der Versuch der Darstellung einer Idee , auch ein Entwurf , ein Konzept , ein erster Überblick. The term is used in different contexts. Der Begriff wird in unterschiedlichen Zusammenhängen benutzt.

each hologram
placed before the jungle
in silence
the hands clasped
then laid palms up
and somewhere
in the library
a scene

the youth must grapple the snout
of the enormous dog
and hold it closed with both hands
wrap his or her legs around the raging torso
and fall

then tear into the neck of the beast
with the curved metal thorn worn at the end of the chin

science

My Private Political News.

I've been playing ping pong with a 49 year old Vietnamese man
at 4 in the morning, Monday through Friday, or at least 2-3 days
in there.  For awhile he was hitting it to my forehand so I could
practice my slam shots, then we both started working on hitting
our backhands as hard as possible. We need more good balls.
We both hate chasing the damn balls under the vending machines.
Lately, we've both been training a 22 year Senegalese man how
to play the game. Our first struggle was with his grip. He had yet
to stabilize his grip and would often find his fingers in the way
of the ball. Once we had his grip somewhat cured, we began
to train him in the watching of the small orange projectile. There
is always something meaningful going on at 4 in the morning.

Some Thoughts on "Post-Pop Punk"






I'll be in a show at Cohn Drennan Contemporary Gallery here in Dallas, Texas starting November 19th called Post-Pop Punks, and strangely enough I've become sort of sensitived or magnetized to the possibilities of the thematic. I guess part of what I've been thinking about recently is Baudrillard's final book _The Agony of Power_ and his construction of the concept of hegemony, which in my understanding is sort of like post-human ideology in the sense that ideology has become post-social or post-humanist. Now, this way of speaking isn't going to clear things up, you have to read the book, and a lot of it is things we heard before, but more or less, you get the idea that "humans + their own abstraction = aporia" which is more or less Grotesque Theory 101, but, his description of "The Hegemony" makes me think of things like Clockwork Orange, and really, of a kind of "Pop-Apocalypticism". So I guess in a way, I am kind of looking at Pop being an analogue of democracy, and punk being the aporistic hegemony. We intuit, or discover by apperception, that say, Democracy is now the Post-Democractic hegemony, and he goes on to cloud this further with things like Convivial Deregulation, as if somehow, Baudrillard sees Orthodoxy as a kind of resistance. That's his kink. He plays his instrument. Anyway, something I saw recently, like today, kind of brought some of this thinking into focus for me, because I have made quite a bit of work very similiar to this.

At Sprueth Magers in Berlin, John Baldessari has a new show up which definitely has some kind of Post-Pop Vibe to it, but I'm going to stick some Baudrillard in here, and make an assertion as to why materially, these works represent something of this Pop-Apocalyptic Hegemony. I'll just assert it now, though it is pretty lame. Now think, Ecstasy of Communication combined with say 'printing technology'.. these are inkjet canvas prints slightly modified by painting. Check them out at Contemporary Art Daily.  In Art Historical terms, they aren't all that different from what JB. hey that's odd. Jean Baudrillard and John Baldessari have the same initials. weird. They aren't all that different from what John has always done, except, personally I like them better. Anyway. I would insert the Baudrillard bit, but it just doesn't sit well without reading into and out of it..

If interested in the _The Agony of Power_ at all check out the section called "Where Good Grows".. He more or less says we have entered into a final revolution which is in effect a nihilistic instrumentality, and that our own revolutionary praxis is to end the human, or some such. Rhetorical art. Instead of typing that stuff in,

I thought I would copy some stuff out of _The Jet Age Compendium: Paolozzi at Ambit_. This is from 1972

from a piece called _The unfilmed Scripts of Paolozzi_:


OLYMPIAD
When the cuttlefish is brought to
light, touch would have had to be
carried by business -- and might
surely have been used to convey
feverishness as well.

NUN
When I think of a good, pure
rigid and as though ironclad;
when it is rarified, it hovers
weightless, incomplete, immobile.

OLYMPIAD
the second body is garden magic;
but from the bamu to the Kerewa
area the stress is on the revela-
tion to boys and girls of the
secrets of adult sexual life.

NUN
Who then can teach me about the
logical foundations of mathematics?

MONKEY
They call me imitator, and in my
role as such I have made many dis-
coveries and copied out the most
dreadful inventions, phones as well.

And just to follow that up, something I thought was kind of sad and funny in a punk-pop-hegemonic way from Roberto Bolaño's _Tres_:

I dreamt I was fucking Carson McCullers in a dim-lit room in the Spring of 1981. and we both felt irrationally happy.

Well, he got the year exactly right I think on that one, and what is the object of contemplation in such an utterance? Is it the genre of melodrama? Is it what things we turned away from in the 80's, those of us who were 'of the 80's' in a manner of speaking. Only once in my life have I seen a person with a Raymond Pettibon tattoo, and the person I saw had the tattoo of the Pettibon image which was a crucified autopsy of a baby, and the caption which I don't know if the person had the caption, but the caption was something like, "I was a medical student at the time of my conversion.." The person with this tattoo was at a Black Flag show at a bar called _The Twilight Room_ where you could see things like men in suits but with mohawks, having martinis with Harley Davidson biker dudes. I saw a girl giving a blowjob in full view of everyone in a booth. Punk in the 80's was not a myth. It was real. Just like the 60's, only creepier, shittier, and absolutely fantastic.

A lustreless protrusive eye

Stares from the protozoic slime

At a perspective of Canaletto:

he was seized by the dancers, by whom he was dragged about and scourged with flowers till he fell into a swoon. When he began to revive one of the group approached him, and told him that his punishment was the consequence of his rebellion against that power before whom all things bend; that there was but one remedy to heal the wounds that had been vorlotramed; bedmuncialix...
