WEEK 4

Directions To See A Ghost
The Black Angels

The name Black Angels taken as it was from the Velvet Underground conjures a certain kind of negation of spirituality. They are not a band you dance to or clean up after your cat to or make love to your significant other to. We’re given directions to see a ghost and they lead us down a cavernous labyrinth of blind alleys across whose twists and turns we’re reminded of how fuzzy guitars and authoritative beats spell doom for other sounds. You listen to the Black Angels with the same attentive dread as you do a tin cup preacher, the difference is one’s noise warns of the apocalypse while the other refreshes us with the promise of change. GRADE: A-

B.R.M.C.
Black Rebel Motorcycle Club

A rémoulade of blues funk power pop cooked down to a sludgy ooze. BRMC proves to be as essential as the primordial slime from which all music and life springs and no less organic. Listen to it at maximum volume to scare kids and old people alike. GRADE: B+

This is Happening
LCD Soundsystem

Sometimes music will come along and so perfectly speak to us that it is difficult to express properly exactly how it makes us feel. Is it enough to say that one finds in the music a kind of metronome for the soul? Maybe. Maybe not. The highest compliment I can think to give that which those who are unimaginative enough to be paid to label things call 'dance music' makes us want to move for the most obvious and sublime of reasons. Though our feet move long in advance of us understanding why. This is Happening is full of reasons to dance and the simple edict as if echoing in the beat belies a fantastic complexity that makes one want to listen to it again and again. Just ask my downstairs neighbors. I have heavy feet. GRADE:A

WEEK 3

Nobody Said It Was Easy
The Four Horsemen

Just listened to this one for the first time in more than a decade. I remembered thinking only the first two songs were good. Now I see I was wrong. GRADE:D

The Bachelor
Patrick Wolf

Garage chamber music from outer space? Pacha's last cowboy DJ on mescaline? I'm not sure how to describe Patrick Wolfe, except to say his music takes you on a tour of a world that would be better never to exist but only because flesh is weak and we are all the heroes if only in his dreams. Easily one of '09's best records (I know it was a pretty dire year). GRADE: A

Preliminaires
Iggy Pop

Actually, I found this strange piece of work, combining as it does two of my favorite humans (the Ig and Houellebecq) an irresistible curiosity at first. On subsequent listens, I've been enchanted by its subtle beats as well as Iggy's well rehearsed French phrasing. The songs melt together into a jazzy river of unfilled dreams. The album somehow manages to capture the ennui of the expat American arriving in the left bank only to realize he is decades too late and that Paris is gone.

It doesn't compare with the stooges but stands alone. Fish Tank, if that is his real name, owes me a pint in Boston. GRADE:B

Swim
Caribou

Moving from 60's psychedelic pop to 70's psychedelic funk, Caribou has made yet another album that I will listen to again and again. I suspect it will not fail to improve my mood each time I do so. There is something in this approach to music that calls to my soul. Sure, much of it is electronic but it manages to sound more organic
by way of the ENIAC as designed by Leonardo's dreams. Dance the dance of the cosmos to this one, it is the soundtrack we'd all like our lives to live up to. GRADE:A

2010-05-10T09:51:00.002-04:00

WEEK 2

Straight To Video
Thomas Jefferson Slave Apartments

Lighter than punk, heavier than garage the unfortunately (or perhaps inspirationally) named Thomas Jefferson Slave Apartments offer the kind of full frontal straight ahead rock that sounds more melodic and controlled than it has any right to be. The guitars often sound as though they are being played by a cheese grater rather than a pick. There is as much steel as skin in the percussion and the bass spends most of its time trying to keep up. The lyrics (as embodied by "Outside My Scene") both celebrate and lament the life of the drunken bar band. Straight to Video represents a kind of joyous bacchanal held during the dark night of a lost soul where anything is possible but we’re not disappointed when only rock happens. GRADE: B+

This Nation's Saving Grace
The Fall

I always loved stretching out in my parent's basement and so apparently does Mark E. Though the basement where he recorded This Nation's Saving Grace sounds as though it is located beneath Vivian Westwood's OBGYN practice and above a 18th century smithy's hut. Punk doesn't disappear on this album so much as grow from the angry growl of the band's 70's work to a more impressionistic growl that portends the electronics and sonic layering they would increasingly adopt to redoubtable ends in the coming years. . GRADE: A-

Through The Windowpane
Guillemots

Plays great on a ride through the heart of Manhattan. As I learned when my now wife, then girlfriend took our first trip together. I was amazed at her boldness, demanding that we drive all the way to our midtown hotel. So this review will be colored in the best way, as all music we share with lovers is, unless of course they leave us.
Avant-pop seems like a fair label if only because back in the day in a church somewhere near, say Cologne someone said the same thing about Bach. That's right I'm comparing this to Bach.
"Redwings" is the highlight here, balancing as it does harmony and emotion; those exquisite layers of gossamer. GRADE: A-

They Live On The Sun
Cloud Cult

These clouds float by looking all too familiar. Fuzz, beeps, blips and whole lotta meh. Listeners are better advised to listen to the Clouds Taste Metallic by The Flaming Lips. GRADE: D+

Weekly 4 Pack

Week One 5/1/10

Congratulations
MGMT

Is the fact that this album makes me wonder what a psychedelic Carol King record would sound like a good thing? Maybe. I read an interview with these boys in RS a while back in which they claimed to be getting wrecked on drugs because they were living like rock stars ironically. Have we reached the point in society where irony can be traded as cheaply as its made? Maybe. Does the fact that one can hear the bones of Muzak in almost every track mean there is something cloyingly artificial going on here? Maybe. Will I change my rating after my wife gets a copy of this and I listen to it a few hundred times driving around the north shore this summer? Maybe. Will my rating go up or down? Maybe. GRADE: C-

Here Lies Love
Fatboy Slim, David Byrne

Like its heroine's shoe closet, the album contains too much variety to please every set of ears (or feet for that matter, though long stretches are agreeable danceable in a NYC 70's disco kind of way, meaning it is easy to imagine white people gormlessly shuffling their feet). Unfortunately, the one constant is a kind of schmaltzy, musical theater execution. A team of extraordinary voices has been gathered to sing about a subject that not one sounds overly passionate about. Still, there is enough charm here, enough Byrneian love of rhythm and harmony to warrant a listen. GRADE:C

Volume Two
She & Him

Hangover music occupies a quite necessary niche in the life of a drinker. I should know I am one. With Vol. 2, She and Him have concocted a collection of songs to soothe one's aching mind as he contemplates whether or not he's going to be able to keep his eggs down, after a night of living like Ike Turner or at least Jamie Turner. "Me and You" is the real stand out track. It mixes dust bowl gospel chanting with dreamy, western Burt Bacharach like orchestration. This album steels one for the long day of recovery ahead. And yes junior, I'll have that coffee now. GRADE: B

Born Again Revisited
Times New Viking

Low-fi like it was recorded under several blankets that smell of patchouli, Times New Viking is certainly the best band ever to be named after a made up font. Organs buzz and crawl over jagged guitar lines, the vocals are more like echoes heard from the near distance, and yet it all manages to sound urgent and finished. A sheen of rough-hewn beauty creeps through on nearly every song. GRADE: B+

How The Album "The Soft Parade" by the Doors Explains The Entire History of Mankind

Part Two: Historical Turning Points, Barack Obama and "Shaman's Blues"

Friends, with inauguration day not long past, I want to address the serious subject of the Obama Presidency through my preferred prism, the lyrics of the late Jim Morrison. Could he see the future? Was there some cracked wisdom to his chemically aided pronouncements? It is safe to view him as a modern day Socrates imbibing Michelob hemlock? The answer to all of these questions is an urgent yes. As proof, I humbly offer "Shaman's Blues."

The music is urgent from the outset, befitting for a song filled with such portent. The beat is as steady and constant as the persistent march of time. Manzerek's organ alternately wails and hums while Krieger's guitar always threatens to shoot off in some new direction before riffing back to the beat in a satisfying series of ripples. Then Morrison, ever the drunken master, peps up to deliver an almost breathless stream of words which may have told more than even the master had foreseen.

There will never be another one like you.
There will never be another one
Who can do the things you do, oh!

Obama is and will forever be the first African American President in the history of the US. It is important to keep in mind that the political machine he built was a mixture of the old and the new.

Will you give another chance?
Will you try, little try?
Please stop and you'll remember
We were together, anyway… All right!

The Internet which had been to that point a crude tool in the marshaling of a campaign became central to his campaign. What was interesting was the way the Obama team used the Internet to bring together Democrats of every kind and stripe to function as foot soldiers in their local communities. They indeed gave old politics another chance by combining the kind of door to door glad handing with the massive electronic reach of the information super highway.

And if you have a certain evening
You could lend to me,
I'd give it all right back to you.
Know how it has to be with you.
I know your moves and your mind,
And your mind, and your mind,
And your mind, and your mind,
And your mind, and you're mine!

In his 1995 book Dreams of My Father President Obama seems to answer Jim. "With our eyes closed, we uttered the same words, but in our hearts we each prayed to our own masters; we each remained locked in our own memories; we all clung to our own foolish magic." It is as if the "certain evening" is the closing of ones eyes and simply speaking one's mind is all we have to do.

Will you stop to think and wonder
Just what you'll see
Out on the trainyard nursing penitentiary?
It's gone, I cry out long.
Play it, brother.

President Obama again in Dreams of my father: "maybe once you stripped away the rationalizations, it always came down to a simple matter of escape."
So yeah Wikipedia is not always the way.

Did you stop it to consider how it will feel,
Cold grindin' grizzly bear jaws hot on your heels?
Do you often stop and whisper in Saturday's shore
"The whole world's a Savior?"
Who could ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever ask for more?

I think this quote from his inaugural address needs no further explanation as to how it helps to answer even explain what Jim was trying to tell us. "Today I say to you that the challenges we face are real. They are serious and they are many.
They will not be met easily or in a short span of time. But know this, America — they will be met." Kind of chills up a spine, doesn't it?

Do you remember?
Will you stop, will you stop the pain?

Again we turn to our President's Inaugural Address. He answers Jim it not directly then in at least in a hopeful yet oblique manner. "Where the answer is yes, we intend to move forward. Where the answer is no, programs will end."

And there will never be another one like you.
There will never be another one
Who can do the things you do, oh!
Will you give another chance?
Will you try a little try?
Please stop and you'll remember
We were together, anyway… All right!

"Transparency and the rule of law will be the touchstones of this presidency."

How you must of think and wondered,
How I must feel
Out on the meadows
While you're on the field?
I'm alone for you, and I cry.

Again from Dreams of My Father:"Was the collaboration of some slaves any different than the silence of some Iranians who stood by and did nothing as Savak thugs murdered and tortured opponents of the Shah? How could we judge other men until we had stood in their shoes?"

He's sweatin', look at him…

Actually President Obama keeps it pretty cool. It's really his touchstone. The man doesn't let much get to him and believe me that is hard because ignorance and violence go together in this country like the Anglos and the Saxons.

Optical promise…

You think it's easy coming up with this shit? Okay Jim, optical promise. Now can we get back to future President Obama?

(Heh, heh, heh.)

Maybe he meant to say optimal pilsner? That would be more like Jim. That's a Jim, I understand.

You'll be dead and in hell before I'm born…

Yeah I'm going with optimal pilsner.

Sure thing…

Exactly Jim.

Bridesmaid…

Okay, Bridegroom.

The only solution —
Isn't it amazing?

It is Jim for you to have predicted and engaged in one of your imitable Q & A's with our future president is amazing.

“Reports from the Civilian Crossing Guard Committee”

When they stumbled on a way to really take back the streets
both Brian and Dave had been drinking, heavily for most of the afternoon. It was one of those sessions that began as a simple stop off on their way some place and turned into a full bore think tank collaborative, their final destination long forgotten. Both drank lager, many, many pints of lager as is usually the case for men with a big hunger and thirst for life.
They had decided collectively after the third or fourth pitcher had been drained that their lives were wholly without purpose or meaning. It was something they uncovered accidently and without realizing the magnitude of their discovery. It wasn’t as though each began to beat his chest and bemoan the state of his life with sad, string-based orchestral music playing in the background and faraway looks in their eyes. Each was unemployed and therefore without a daily purpose in the typical cog in the faceless machine sense. Also, neither was particularly desirous of getting a job (both were more than sufficiently suspicious of the capitalist system or at least the part of it that deemed they be productive members of society) they decided that their search for meaning would have to be conducted outside the doors of polite society. There was little for them in the offices and cubicles of the rest of the working world, this was something they knew without ever having to go to an office or even see a cubicle. It wasn’t like they talked about meaning and purpose, per say. They just decided that they could do more for their city and their fellow men than they had been doing so far in their lives. Since neither had a car and viewed the car with the same kind jaundiced eye with which they examined the rest of the capitalist system, it seemed only natural that they figure out a way to mitigate the automobile’s influence on the lives of their fellow citizens.
More pitchers were drained. Plans expanded and expounded upon. A round of pool was played, passably, though neither was much good at it. A game of darts was begun and abandoned without a satisfactory conclusion. Discussions grew animated and acrimonious which was odd as Dave and Brian were in general agreement about what to do. The how to do it was what generated the hottest of these heated discussions. By the end of the night, both were feeling bloated, bleary eyes and quite creased when the bartender, after being subjected to their planning for more than nine hours, suggested they keep a running diary of their encounters with discourteous motorists. Neither Dave nor Brian was in any shape to argue with the man. He even offered to post some of the diary entries on a bulletin board in the bar to warn fellow pedestrians. Truthfully, the bartender was just trying to get them to shut up and never thought they’d remember his promise.
Wednesday, June 21st 9:30 PM (approx.), corner of Lex and S.Hunnigton: Brian writes that he is nearly run over by a Buick as he stops traffic coming W, it allows two females to cross unharmed, driver calls Brian “fucktard.”
Wednesday, June 21st 10:04 PM, cross walk on 400 block of LaFrene: Dave reports many horns honking as he stops traffic for two females and one male, male reportedly calls Dave “chief” and thanks him, the females ignore him completely.
Wednesday, June 21st 11:38 PM, cross walk outside of Lane’s Lounge @ 1st and Crumm: Dave helps two male patrons across by stopping N bound traffic.
Wednesday, June 21st 11:45 PM (approx.) corner of Villane and S.Hunnington: Brian holds ‘walk’ button for five consecutive minutes (approx.) light does not change, he proceeds to try and open up electric panel on light post, Brian reports feeling light shock move up his arm. He leaves half burnt screwdriver at the scene.
Wednesday, June 21st 11:48 PM, crosswalk outside Lane’s Lounge @ 1st and Crumm: Dave reports low traffic volume, continues to inspect traffic for another 5-7 minutes on his official cigarette break.
Wednesday, June 21st 11:59 PM, crosswalk outside Lane’s Lounge @ 1st and Crumm: Dave stops both N and S traffic allowing male pedestrian to cross the street, male pedestrian turns out to be Brian who reports that his watch is broken.
Thursday, June 22nd 12:03 AM: Operations officially cease for the day.
Thursday, June 22nd 8:15 AM (approx.) corner of Lex and Wilson: Brian stops heavy traffic from both W and E so two elderly females can cross, blaring horns and several middle fingers were reported as responses.
Thursday, June 22nd 8:30 AM (approx.) corner of Lex and Wilson:
Brian stops traffic from both W and E so that a male on a bike can cross, a police car was among the stopped cars coming from the W, one of the officers asked Brian if he had a “job.”
Thursday, June 22nd 9 AM (approx.) corner of Lex and Wilson:
Brian reports being hassled about his sash and plastic badge by a couple of neighborhood kids, they refer to him as a “fucktard.”
Thursday, June 22nd 9:11 (approx.) 121 Wilson St: Brian reports finding lost watch in lost and found box at Java Joe’s. He considers it similar enough to his to keep.

How The Album "The Soft Parade" by the Doors Explains The Entire History of Mankind

This long neglected and admittedly flawed masterpiece by the Doors is one of my favorite albums of all time. True, it does contain Runnin' Blues featuring the unfortunate vocal stylings of one Mr. Robbie Krieger but hey the Doors put out a lot of albums in a short time; the occasional embarrassing mistake can be overlooked. The album also features some of the finest examples of what can best be called "Drunken Karaoke Jim Morrison" as well as the always competent back beat of John Densmore and enough keyboard work from Ray Manzarek to make you almost forget he thinks the entire concept of the sixties danced across his keyboard exclusively. Clocking in at a little over thirty minutes, it may appear at first to be a meager slice. But dig more deeply into the amplified weirdness, the use of brass instruments and lyrics that are somehow wistful and nihilistic at the same time and you will find a singular work of art one who's beauty is incomplete making it ripe for further examination. "The Soft Parade" is a coded message. A note on a scroll rolled up, placed in a bottle and allowed to drift across the decades.Reflected through the prism of its singularity, it might be possible to achieve a greater understanding of the universe and man's place in it.

Shall we try together?

Part One: Man Attempts to Conquer Nature (The Soft Parade)

The title track begins with Morrison shouting. His whiskey caked voice full of despair. He decries the distance at which God operates. There is no music yet, just one insignificant soul crying out in the wilderness.

"When I was back there in seminary school
There was a person there
Who put forth the proposition
That you can petition the Lord with prayer…
Petition the Lord with prayer…
Petition the Lord with prayer…
You cannot petition the Lord with prayer!"

This gives way to a haunting dose of clavichord tinged chamber music transporting the listener back in time. Morrison's lyrics take us back even further to our primitive ancestor's quest for shelter.

Can you give me sanctuary?
I must find a place to hide,
A place for me to hide.
Can you find me soft asylum?
I can't make it anymore
The Man is at the door.

This brings an abrupt change to the music indicating perhaps that no sooner had sanctuary been found then it was shattered. In this case, The Man may embody progress as the organ sound morphs from gentle clavichord to a more loungish Wurlitzer sound. And Caveman Morrison finds himself assaulted by the suddenness of the modern world.

Peppermint, miniskirts, chocolate candy,
Champion sax and a girl named Sandy
There's only four ways to get unraveled —
One is to sleep and the other is travel at dawn.
One is a bandit up in the hills,

Then, to lighten the proceedings, Morrison makes a crude joke that leaves one to wonder how much bigger a star a pansexual Jim Morrison might have been.

One is to love your neighbor till
His wife gets home.

Again led by Manzarek's organ, the tone shifts becoming playful, delicate, even a little silly. The lyrics take us once more from the primitive shelter of the caves to the modern streets of LA.

Catacombs,
Nursery bones,
Winter women
Growing stones,
Carrying babies
To the river;
Streets and shoes,
Avenues,
Leather riders
Selling news,

This leads us to the combining of the mundane and the spiritual.

The monk bought Lunch.

With real vigor and determination music begins to build and funk itself in new directions. The monk, by buying lunch, has proven that man's spiritual quest need take him no further than a taco stand on South La Brea Avenue. Now through the magic of Paul Rothchild's producing, we encounter three distinct Morrison's: Caveman Morrison, Jim Morrison and Acid Causality Morrison. They act as a Greek chorus while the music is building and in their confused utterances, we see man's confusion as he confronts the ineffable conditions imposed by nature.

He he he, he bought a little.
Yes, he did
Woo!

This is the best part of the trip.
This is the trip, the best part
I really like it.

What'd he say?
Yeah!
Yeah, right!
Pretty good, huh
Huh!
Yeah, I'm proud to be a part of this number!

As the music begins to even out and relax itself into quite a palatable groove, the logic behind the lyrics also suggests relaxation or at least acceptance.

Successful hills are here to stay,
Everything must be this way.
Gentle streets where people play,
Welcome to the Soft Parade.

All our lives we sweat and save,
Building for a shallow grave.
“Must be something else”, we say
“Somehow to defend this place.”
Everything must be this way,
Everything must be this way, yeah. Aah, yeah!

In a slight listing tonal shift, it begins to change direction again but more slowly, less suddenly than before. The lyrics also begin to slide as the mechanized and natural world meet, it becomes clear that we all march in "The Soft Parade."

The Soft Parade has now begun
Listen to the engines hum.
People out to have some fun,
Cobra on my left,
Leopard on my right, yeah.

Deer woman in a silk dress,
Girls with beads around their necks,
Kiss the hunter of the green vest
Who has wrestled before
With lions in the night.

Out of sight!
The lights are getting brighter,
The radio is moaning,
Calling to the dogs.
There are still a few animals
Left out in the yard,
But it's getting harder
To describe sailors
To the underfed.

Now those three Morrison's return as the song winds down. They argue about man's place in nature but seem content not to learn the answer.

Tropic corridor,
Tropic treasure,
What got us this far,
To this mild equator?
We need someone or something new,
Something else to get us through, yeah. C'mon!

Callin' on the dogs,
Callin' on the dogs,
But it's gettin' harder Callin' on the dogs,
Callin' in the dogs,
Callin' on the dogs,
Callin' on the gods.
You gotta
Meet me Too late, baby!
Shoot a few animals аt the crossroads Too late!
let out in the yard.
But it's getting harder Whoa!
Gotta meet me You’ve done great, hey!
at the edge of town, Having a good time.
You’d better come along
outskirts of the city Let’s fun!
Just you and I
and the evening sky. We are so alone.
Better bring your gun You’d better come along.
You’d better bring your gun.
We’re gonna have some fun!
Tropic corridor
Tropic treasure.

As the music fades, one whispered voice suggests that man can only conquer nature one beast at a time. It is hardly a solution but like an philosophical quest, there are only questions and compromises never real solutions.

“When all else fails,
We can whip the horse's
Eyes and make them sleep
and cry.”

Innumerable Sightings of Edwards

before contact with Egypt
she had no idea she was a surrealist

Adrift in an era of fading tradition and increasing lawlessness
watching as a chance heckle or slip of the tongue inflates into a full-blown nonsense fantasy

she posed women poised against the sky with their children,
women planted like trees in the mother earth,
raggle-taggle families of tinkers and wanderers

she had had nightmares about their conflicts for many years

All of these are just objects now, dead, encased
as ancient as the decaying sand faces of the rulers

Over the years, innumerable sightings of Edwards
have proved to be thoroughly and tastefully unfounded

before working in a mental hospital, he photographed incoming patients
Nothing could be further from his grim, grey 1933 mural
transposed to a world of strong light, intense color and heat

at home in Lincolnshire and he played a slow, mournful tune

things looked bleak, the old man's changes gave her no hope
basking in the tide of international goodwill, she can’t say why

a hangover from their days in religious meeting house
other women and other women's children behaved in cruel ways

The outcome of this process presented a clear choice
amalgamated with its similarly struggling rival, the Playhouse
a literary policy was put in place with mysticism and its connection with the very soil

the only one who can lay undoubted claim to the life and times of the composer

or interpreted to shore it up

new to Snackcar, first in a series called "Shit Nobody Really Likes All That Much"

ITEM#1 THE CLASH

Found myself browsing through a book of CD’s burned for me by various friends the other day and noted that I had accumulated no less than 3 copies of the rumored classic London Calling by the Clash, aka “the only band that matters.” Why 3 copies? Because I’ve developed the admittedly foolish habit of letting it slip in mixed (and often mastered company) that I really don’t like The Clash. This is met with what can only be called flaming incredulity. They hiss, they jibe, they stomp. I am assailed with inquiries into my sanity, my taste level, my intelligence, even, rather unkindly, the circumstances surrounding my birth. Somehow, I withstand the assault and calmly state that I am not, in fact, a crazy mongoloid bastard. I simply find their music a touch boring. And then I prepare for the usual, ‘you have to listen to London Calling.’ When I again state that I have tried to listen but that it just didn’t touch me, they force a copy into my hands. So I go home and try again with the same result.

I feel as though I’ve let my friends down, disappointed them with my inability to force myself into a state of blissful admiration for music that fails to hold my ear. Those friends, those self-avowed, if I may coin a phrase, had expanded my rather meager range and turned me on to all of the bands guys who aren’t getting regular sex have the time to check out. For me, it’s a bit of Top 40 radio after a good session of the ole slap and tickle but that’s a story for another time. One day as I tried for the sixth or seventh time not to fast forward through “Jimmy Jazz” or “Hateful” it occurred to me, I’d listened to hundreds of hours of music with these chaps and never once did we listen to The Clash. Even when they rose to meet my challenge by burning a CD, they didn’t rush to the stereo to put the album on, as they had done with other bands.

Could it be that no one really listens to the Clash? No, I told myself, you’re mad.

So like a good social scientist, I began to ask everyone who I met and spoke with at all about music about the Clash. Again and again, I was told they were great, stupendous, “the only band that matters.” When I inquired after their listening habits regarding the band, the Clasholytes (is it catching on yet?) were much more evasive. Answers ranged from ‘not for awhile but I used to listen to them all the time in high school’ (poor lying bastard, ever notice how much stuff people claim they used to do in high school as a way of explaining their refusal to do something in the present?) to the deliciously vague ‘a couple of months ago.’ No one it seemed had just listened to them in the car on the ride over to wherever we were or had spent all last night listening to The Clash as they bathed in patchouli or had partied with all of their Clash friends at an all night Clashfest anytime in the recent past. And I surveyed people far and wide, though truth be told I don’t know too many old timey punk rockers so I may have missed the proper demographic entirely. (Who wants to hang around with a punch of tattooed delusionals anyway?) Still, it’s odd. I invite you to try it on your music friends. Ask them if they like the Clash. I’m guessing they’ll say yes. Then ask them when was the last time they listened to the Clash. If my study is any indication, their answers will be as vague as the band’s appeal.

Newport Preservation Society

the frosted electric light bulb,
lone decoration on a Christmas tree
a trailer truck east of New Orleans
heard about the place from acquaintances who grew up in the neighborhood
officials of the agency who are in a position
to rededicate themselves in Creole
developing natural language,
the rules for communications paid off for even those who couldn’t follow

If you know you are not trustwothy please do not bother to
reply,because a lot of money is involved here. All I am asking you is, if you
would like to earn 10% of any amount you will help to collect from customers.
One of the vital reason for this new development is that before, things
were not as difficult as this for Capital Gems Company Ltd and
exporters in the China because cheques from these countries never took time
before they are cleared in our territory, but now it takes weeks and this
slows down the production of the company.Some of these customers even
issued cheques that will not be clear eventually at the end of the day

The best part of this job offer is that you do not have to leave your

That Rarest of Love Letters
or
Communique from a Dictator's Ex-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Robert Taylor, late of power in Liberia, was a great lover and a bit of a con man. Many beautiful women were left in his wake. And here we have one of them contacting yours truly.

I ask you dear reader, what am I to make of this?-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dear Friend,

With all sincerity and humility, it is with deep pains I write you this message of wishful assistance to my predicament. I am Mrs. Jewel Taylor the estranged wife to the former president of Liberia who was asked by unanimous decision by the international community to step down from the corridors of power.

I write you this mail under duress and as a result of my recent decision to better the lives of I and my children. I have made a decision which I know might not be good in the sight of man but the present situation has led me to this decision to better the lives of my children. Currently now I have decided to make do with the sum of $20.5m (Twenty Million Five Hundred Thousand United States Dollars) belonging to my husband in which I am a beneficiary to, I have decided to relocate with your assistance to your private account the said sum.

My decision was reached when I could not conceive the thought that after the United States Government has promised to let my husband go free based on the condition that he should step down Mr. Collin Powell stated in a press briefing that he would be indicted by the court in Netherlands to face charges on war crimes, this is what led to my decision as God Knows that I was never in support of his involvement in the indecent maltreating of innocent people in Politics.

This decision is hard for me to make but I just have to make it for the sake of my children's future. Currently the said sum was lodged in a safety deposit box in a financial Institution which I will disclose to you as a matter of commitment to me and this plea for assistance. I currently have the deposit certificate and can draw up a change of beneficiary mandate to affect you as the beneficiary to the funds. I am a trained economist by profession and it is in this line that I will want you to take note that your services for assisting me will be compensated to the best of my ability.

I have this to look forward to so I would like you to keep this project close to your heart just as myself pending when we reach the conclusive end of this project. I will want you as a matter of confidentiality to respond through this mail and also include your telephone number as well so that i can give you a call if the need arises as we are currently on political asylum now in West Africa. Once get your confirmation that you can be of assistance I will bring you into a clearer picture of the situation at hand.

View this site to see a picture of me: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/africa/2963086.stm
I look forward to your response with great hope of assistance from your good self. Reply to jewel-taylor@hotmail.com

I remain yours truly,

Mrs. Jewel Taylor.

once upon a time...

there lived a ruler...

who...

even in the face of his luxurious lifestyle...

was neither joyful...

nor content...

onE day...

the ruler came upon a servant...

who was singing happily...

while he worked...

this fascinated the ruler...

why was he...

the supreme ruler of the land...

unhappy and ominous...

while a servant...

had so much bliss in his heart...

the ruler asked the man...

why are you so cheerful...

he replied...

your majesty...

i am nothing but a servant...

but...

my family and i don't need too much...

just a roof over our heads…

and food to fill onEs stomachs...

later in the day...

the ruler sought the advice...

of his most trusted advisor...

after hearing the ruler's woes...

and the servant's story...

the advisor declared...

your majesty...

i believe that the servant...

has not been made part of...

the 99 club...

&...

what exactly is that...

the ruler enquired...

the advisor replied...

your majesty...

to truly know what this club is...

place ninety nine gold coins in a bag...

and leave it at this servant's doorstep...

this was donE...

when the servant saw the bag...

he took it into his house...

when he opened it...

he let out a enormous shout of joy...

so many gold coins...

he began to count them...

after several times...

he was at last convinced...

that there were ninety 9 coins...

he wondered...

what could have happened...

to that last gold coin...

surely...

there was onE missing...

he looked everywhere he could...

but...

that final onE coin was nowhere to be found...

finally...

exhausted...

he decided that he was going work harder...

than ever...

to earn that gold coin...

and complete his collection...

from that day...

the servant's life was changed...

he was overworked...

grumbled a lot...

scolded his family...

for not helping him complete his collection to a 100...

he even stopped singing while he worked...

witnessing this drastic transformation...

the ruler was puzzled...

when he sought his advisor's help...

the advisor concluded...

your majesty...

the servant has now officially joined...

the 99 club...

he continued...

a name given to those people...

who have enough to be happy...

but...

are never contented...

because they are always yearning...

striving...

for that extra onE to round it out to onE hundred...

we can be happy...

with what we have in our lives...

but the minute we are...

given something superfluous...

we want even more...

we lose our sleep...

our happiness...

we even hurt the people around us...

all this...

for da price for our growing needs...

and desires...

don’t look for the onE...

be the onE...

.

Subject: Re[1]: Privet dear!

Hello, Lukas

Each time I see the rain, I think that heavens are crying. There is always
a reason for crying. Either sad or happy. If I would criticize myself, I'd
make a conclusion that most of my tears are for sad moments. Someone made
me feel bad, or I've watched bad news on TV, or the movie is sad, or old
people pass away, there are so many reasons for sad tears:.
However I know that there are happy tears as well! I remember myself at the
Graduation from school. I remember birthdays, when you get what you wished
so much! I remember the feeling of being happy for someone else and feeling
the tears even though knowing that everything is wonderful. They say that
only emotional people cry. It is not true. Everyone does, even the
strongest and the toughest:
I dream that we can have a family, and that I could cry only happy tears,
our wedding, birth of the first kid, our anniversaries, our little holidays,
our career growth:: Don't you also dream about this?... I am waiting for
you for further communication and relations.

Bye

Ivan

A simple beverage, served either hot or iced, tea has fascinated and driven us, calmed and awoken us, for well over two thousand years. " He says his wife wants to work in a hospital helping Americans and that he is eager to help the Marines in any way he can until he can go back to Nasiryah and resume his normal life.
You know we're all the same underneath.
IBM provides no assurances that any reported problems may be resolved with the use of any information that IBM provides. I guess I should trademark "Honkey" for my clothing line while it's still available.
Then again we all know the exuberance was irrational - or at least I did, and bore the scars of scorn telling people they were not motely, just fools.
I just want to be down. It could be holy like Graceland.
Shakespeare had an interesting idea.

Suspendisse consequat fringilla arcu. They aren't, and we aren't really making war on them.
All in all, four boys acted together. I understand, I'm down with that. And, why am I supposed to care if others have access to my prescription drug history, anyway. Mohammed went to visit his wife at the hospital and inadvertently witnessed an Iraqi soldier hit Lynch.
ALL INFORMATION IS PROVIDED BY IBM ON AN "AS IS" BASIS ONLY. He appears to have the most relaxed look I've ever seen on a CEO's face!
In addition, a link to a non-IBM Web site does not mean that IBM endorses or accepts any responsibility for the content, or the use, of such Web site. Shooting at cops, butt-raping chicks, pretending to be a gang banger; it was only a matter of time. And so of all the people who made money during the craze, I think he's one of the least crazy.
Nobody could ever say that it would be appropriate to judge America based upon the angry reactions some foreign journalist captured of those people closest to the tragedy. The Apple Store allows you to rent a Genius, which sounds snooty - you have to have an appointment, but actually works out nicely. All in all, four boys acted together.
Lament, is more like it.
Before joining Merrill Lynch, Mr. Daily, I proudly fly our flag, the flag of a peoples that knows a great deal about the escape from oppression to freedom. He was the late Ayatollah Khomeini's choice to be head of an Islamic Republic of Iraq. Nullam ante lacus, iaculis sed, porta ut, vehicula non, libero.
It's called the 'Lorem Ipsum', and it is actually a real text with a real history.

The cocked eyebrow is pretty kick-ass for a CEO.
Are we to assume that there is some magic an Arab port manager can get away with that somebody else cannot?
This is, in the end, global enterprise but not of the sort which should be more alarming such as the Russian Federation's nationalization of Yukos Oil.

Phases of the Moon

Phase 1

A group of moon faced whiskey drinkers gaze and ponder what they've done with their lives.
"I am 39 and have only an ex-wife to show for all the wrong I've done," says 1.
"I'm 36 and have never been married," says another.
"I've a wife and family. Hande me your bottles, I need them more than you," says the last.

And with that an eclipse cast a shadow over their drunken midnight.

Pervert's Clock

Swiss clock
Whose hour hand were in the shape
Of a girls arms clasped together
The minute hand
Her legs
She did her most magnificent
Contortions at the oddest times of day
In the middle her small body and head
Made her look quite freakish
It was given to be by an uncle
Not a favorite one
Not one disliked either
A medium uncle

Might still have smelled like her
It might still have smelled of Christmas
when she kept in on
It was cold she said

He didn’t know how to light a fire, he said
Then, he gave her a watch
Gold or silver, he couldn’t remember
She thanked him, she already had one
Just like it, but it no longer worked
He thought of that watch now
His gift not the broken one
As he held the scarf loosely on his left hand
Like he was clutching something he had once
Let go of but never would again
His mother had bought it for her
they did not get along
they fought like a mother and daughter would
and maybe he loved her more because
she made him think of his mother like that
like somebody’s daughter

".....The large-format tome offers 768 glossy pages of photographs and easy-to-read text to prove that God created the world with all its species."Reuters, Nov. 22, 2006
HARUN YAHYA'S LATEST WORK REVEALING "THE FACT OF CREATION" VOLUME ONE OF A GIANT, 7-VOLUME, 5600-PAGE ENCYCLOPEDIA IS OUT NOW!!! This giant format, 770-page book containing the pictures of hundreds of living fossils that refute the theory of evolution will give you the most satisfying information about the theory?s collapse. The hologram images on its cover, its high-quality paper, and some 1500 colored pictures, photographs and documents, give it an unrivaled appearance. With its printing technology, wide-ranging contents and 28 x 38 cm giant format, Harun Yahya's "ATLAS OF CREATION" is totally unique.

A 410 million years old Coelacanth fossilA 450-million-year-old fossil Horseshoe crab, no different from those crabs of our day.A 355 to 295-million-year-old spider fossil The fossil record is perhaps the most important evidence that demolishes the theory of evolution's claims. Fossils reveal that life forms on Earth have never undergone even the slightest change and have never developed into one another. Examining the fossil record, one can clearly see that living things are exactly the same today as they were hundreds of millions of years ago, in other words, that they never underwent evolution, but were created by God. This book provides its readers with a closer examination of a variety of such fossil specimens revealing this fact.

Someone who knows more than you.

She crumpled it up in her hand and made as if to open the door and force me out at thirty-thousand feet.
Were you worried?
No, embarrassed, though. Embarrassed plenty enough to not drink for the rest of the flight.

I continually downshift and never slow down, which only makes it harder on my engine.

Everybody who knew me then thinks I’m like dead or something.
Not everyone. Not me.
Well, everyone who’s known me since thinks I’m some kind of bastard or asshole.

What is there to think about? My god you’re torturing me.
Don’t be so dramatic. I said I need a little time to consider what we’re doing.
We’re in love. Right?
Yes, of course. Did I say we weren’t?
Then what’s this time you think you need?
Bryce, you know me. I like to think everything through, weigh the pro’s and con’s. I’m not some maverick who can just jump into something willy-nilly.

Plundering my thoughts with their knives, I am aware that some of the brain waves are no longer mine.

Well-read, good grammar, clean, yet he doesn’t do it for me.
Tina.
I mean it. I want some excitement. I don’t want to spend the rest of my life driving to soccer and dinner parties.

Drugs have a foothold in the country and will never be eradicated. The key should be not thinking about them as a problem or treating them as a disease but instead teaching people to use and enjoy them responsibly. Why crack is no more dangerous than automobiles. The difference? People are trained to operate automobiles.

The meeting had to be rescheduled. The suicide experts were unavailable due to it being so close to the Valentine’s holiday.

You want to think you’ve bought into the American dream because you had no choice. That’s selling yourself short.

I told my doctor about it and he recommended that I prepare my family for the worst.
So this is what you have come to tell us and why you look so…frightened.
Yes mama.
I am scared now too, Phillip. But I thank and pray God for his help and he will help us.
I’m not sure its in his hands.
Everything is in his hands. When I was pregnant, I prayed to have a beautiful, good boy and he gave me you. Now, I will ask that he not take you away, yet.

I don’t dare reveal to her how I truly feel, no matter who badly I want her both in flesh and spirit. At nights, I’m plagued by the nagging suspicion that no one could make her feel as I would that her whole life she has been waiting for me to touch her, to caress her, to make her pleasure ours.

They’re saying you’re a phony. Some kind of scribbler cum con artist.
At least they think of me as an artist.
You’re missing the point. Your name is muck in every bar in town from here to the diamond district.
It is? I’ll have my revenge on them with an epic expose that reveals they are the real phonies, they are the only charlatans and hustlers. It will be on every bookshelf in town.

Then, with no small effort, he placed it in the trash and closed the lid. But those days, the wasted days still haunted him. At night, he could not sleep without dreaming of them marching out of the trash, Monday the twelfth, Tuesday the twenty-seventh, Sunday the first, all marching out in a line to his bedroom to have their revenge.

How the hell is it you think you know what everyone thinks?

Sure, the animals scream but not because they have souls, don’t be a fool. They scream because like all mortal beings they can feel pain. And that is the song they sing, a song of life’s final drama being played out by them on the killing floor.

Let me tell you something, rollerblades look even more gay.
Gayer.
Huh?
It’s not more gay it’s gayer.

I haven’t read it but someone was telling me about it. Sounds rather reminiscent of a web page in which they do the same thing.

POEM # 13

And ode to all the women
I’ve known and loved
Who have wrapped me in their pleasure
Who have honored me with their lust

Never was it a husband and wife matter
No were any of us merely shacking up
They were lovers true who
Gave me their trust

So much the easier was it then
To mount a farce again and again
No one expects the nice guy
To slip them something on the sly

I speak not of roofies
Nor sleeping potion in their gin
For I wouldn’t offend with
Tricks so ordinary and plain

But I did pass them something
Which they soon learned
Caused a rash and a sharp
Tickling pain

And maybe when they had seen
A physician and after the rash
Had been treated, its mark by then
Mere scabs

Did they realize that all along
I had been the cause of discomfort
For you see trusting reader
I have crabs

Surprise slum lord
Years of high rent
Rodent infestations
No heat, faulty electrical systems

Locking me out
Loosing my deposit
Leaving me in the street

Will all haunt you soon

Toilet, toilet
I used the cistern above

Call it going top shelf
The water never comes clean

POEM # 4

The party ended far too soon
We sat by the lake on the hillside
And stared at the purple moon

A cloud granted us shadow cover
And Bill Boy told his tale, his lies
Like frost his lamentation hovers

“I did not me to offend Ms. Micking
T’was but a joke, a little humor only
Her funny bone was I picking

She had no call for such protestations
I was only having fun like all good
People of all colors, all grand nations

I wish she had allowed for the birthday cake
There was no reason to call off the party
On my honor and my pride the vomit was fake”

If I said
it only cost me 99 cents
would you believe it

as I inflate it
and the rubber expands
can you see it

when the cartoon
becomes visible
would you laugh

because when I place
it under grandma’s chair
at easter dinner

you are sure to hear it
hear the whoopee cushion
do its magic

POEM # 16

Ragweed season has begun
The pollen count is high
Your allergy attacks
Ever grow nigh

And the kerchief you use
The one you always keep near
Stitched and monogrammed
By the one you hold dear

Has a surprise inside
You’ll not discover
But it has to do with me
And my secret lover

It will not be visible
To your naked eyes
But its pungent scent
Is sure to soon arise

For when you bring it
To your red face
To stem the mucus’s flowing
There’s likely to be a trace
Of whom I just finished boning

You see after your wife finished me
As we lay tangled in the loft
It was your treasured kerchief she
Used to wipe me off

POEMS ‘BOUT PRANKS

POEM #1
Bag of flaming doggy do
In the middle of the living room floor
Who might have left it here
Is it for the king from St. Thomas Moore

Perhaps it’s Roger’s
finding the pubic hair in his cup
I hardly believe his hound dog Shane
Could have filled that brown bag up

Is it yours Marietta due to the baby
Which I indeed proudly gave you
Or have you found the letter J I left
When down there I shaved you

No matter with thermal gloves
I shall scoop it from where it rests
For when it comes to bags of flaming
Dog shit, doorsteps are the best

I suggest we etch a scar on the building as permanently as the one we leave on the minds of the liberated.

She did come over after everything that happened. Very sexy too in her emerald dress, you know the one with the sequins. The one her husband bought her.
She came over in that dress. She is bold.
But not particularly happy.
Mmmmm.
It kills me.
Can see that.
I want to be the one.
You still can.
No. No. I will lose her to the man that makes her happy.
Or the woman.
She is bold.

Somehow she has me at her beckon call, making me do this everyday. And yet I know she'll never love me back not the way I want her to.

I know going through a phase. Reacting to the world as he sees it. Responding to society, teenage rebellion. That's it right? That's the speech?
He came back from Europe with a new perspective. It’s the first time he was overseas. It's sort of like culture shock.
It's sure shocking to me. All of those poisonous ideals and pretentious habits. That's what he brought home from Europe.

Plausible deniability is the kind of term you only read in pot boilers or hear on bad television shows or movies.

Certain of them will consider the economic viability of the situation, gauge the pro’s and con’s, while others, the mavericks of the bunch, will simply leap in. Lemmings and fools, one and each.

There is nothing like it in all the world, when you take that first bend and gravity like stretches itself against you and forces you to one side. Then, like the creaking sound of the girders below you, they look sturdy from the ground and all but like feel way different when you’re way up high.
It’s not that high up.
Take a look dude. I’m telling you.
I’ve been on higher.

The term conversation should really only be applied to two people any more and it’s a meeting and less and you’re talking to yourself.

Did you have trouble finding anything today?
Everything I found was in its right place.
That’s what we strive for sir. Paper or plastic.

His music is like his clothes stylish but clearly last season.
Now that sounds pretentious.

Sometimes, he’s third from the right sometimes second.

It’s always someone else’s idea.

Sometime they are boring, sometimes exciting but always revealing. It is imperative that you know what to listen for. Each word, indeed, each syllable has its own part to play.
Alright, alright, great. I get it. Now quiet down so I can listen.

I’m sick of the park today. Let’s go off and roller skate or something.

Come is such a nasty word when it’s used like that. It can’t ever sound romantic or even sleazy sexy.
Only to him when he’s watched those movies.

I still have rather a fondness for sleigh bells in music, just not on their own.

I’m so tired of fiction that seems to subsist solely on cleverness. Give me realism, characters I can relate to, just because you’re a talent doesn’t give you license to squat over the page and crap all over the reader.

Someone who knows more than you.

She crumpled it up in her hand and made as if to open the door and force me out at thirty-thousand feet.
Were you worried?
No, embarrassed, though. Embarrassed plenty enough to not drink for the rest of the flight.

I continually downshift and never slow down, which only makes it harder on my engine.

Everybody who knew me then thinks I’m like dead or something.
Not everyone. Not me.
Well, everyone who’s known me since thinks I’m some kind of bastard or asshole.

Conventionally views of beauty don’t interest me.
No? What does then?
Only my own lust, only what makes my blood boil.
You’re a very selfish lover, aren’t you?
Aren’t we all?
Is that what you’ve come here to find out?
No, Amanda. I came here to talk to you about your sister.
I told you, she isn’t home.

Words with Z’s are fascinating to me because of the way they sound. The English tongue was made for Z’s.

The xylophone is a vastly underrated instrument.

I read something interesting in the USA Today.
Why were you reading that piece of shit?
Larry King’s column.
Who?
This writer and interviewer.
Never heard of him.
That don’t matter listen. King’s says that he read where the pinky toe is getting smaller all the time and in that in a few short millennia man will have lost it all together.
Good!
Good?
Fuck a-right. Most worthless goddamned digits on the feet.

I didn’t want to be in charge of the emergency exit so I conspired to move and got a row all to myself.

We can't take it in every time the heater doesn't fire up in two minutes. We've been over this. All of those garages are crooked. Look at what they charge for labor, people with master's degrees don't make that much.

Clocks are jackhammers that are never done digging and their engines are powered by the earth’s rotation and can never be halted.

Suicide was on the agenda but we never got around to it.
Maybe next time.

Only shallow people choose even numbers.

Can you so easily change who you are? Can you transform yourself?
I’m not talking about metamorphosis. Just a few simple lifestyle changes.
All for the better?
I think so and wish you would to. What I’m doing, I’m doing for the both of us.
That’s the most selfish thing I’ve ever heard.

An interesting concept that he didn’t fully pull off. More a catalog of his own erudition than anything else. It’s the type of thing only those who find erudition a worthwhile pursuit in and of itself would find satisfying.

Odes to Byron and Keats are fine but why not celebrate the music that is truly you. Music that comes from your soul. That is what you have to train your ears to hear.
Drivel. Pure, romantic drivel. There isn’t any such phantom as a soul.
How can anyone who thinks that way write so beautifully?
Because it is the one thing I do well.

That looks so gay.

And I’m certain I have misspelled it twice since the age of thirty-five.
Fist or last.
Once each.
My, not at the same time I hope.

I like music that sounds as if it were composed by drugs, not a drug addled mind, not a musician on drugs, that’s all so trite but solely narcotics without any human interference or processing.

Oh, Peter not here you pervert. My parents are meeting us in ten minutes.

That’s what they strive for. The peas with the peas and the corn with the corn. How about striving to have no moldy peaches, you nefarious wasps.

It makes sense that she never knew what I couldn’t bring myself to tell her.

Notes Stolen from Conversations

I have misspelled my name at least four times since the age of twelve.

The paper airplane was high jacked by a stewardess out of uniform wearing only a shawl and a red bathrobe.

Did you find what you were looking for?
Plumbing supplies, you were right.

Everyone has to have a favorite number.
Not me.
But you must have had one at some point.
Why?
Because every one did when they were kids. Mine was three.
One.
Fine, then. One.

The ice is unnecessary but the water is absolutely essential.

It sounded metallic.
Things can’t sound metallic, they can look or feel or even taste metallic but not sound metallic.
You know what I mean. So what’s the difference?
Well, when you blabbing about this to the next guy, you’ll sound like an idiot.
Because I said it sounded metallic?

She never found out. Never. Love was swimming blind in shadows, love incognito.

I don’t think this is a story from the bible but since I never finished it, I can’t speak with authority. Who would read such a thing anyway? It’s so violent and the main character is pushy and judgmental. Blah-blah begets blah-blah, begets blah-blah, begets blah-blah, begets blah-blah, begets blah-blah, begets blah-blah, begets blah-blah, begets blah-blah, begets blah-blah, begets blah-blah, begets blah-blah,....and on and on. So? So what?

Some say its a harmless piece of fluff but look at the drivel it inspires. Weeping pool of sheep’s blood? Come on, what is that anyway. And comets and lions. Our strange author could do himself a favor and write a good adventure story. That, I would not mind being included in.

And yet, I am somewhat outraged that I have yet to be placed in the tale. Here I am walking along the road. Dry as eighteenth century parchment and no one has thought to let me meet David, or hell even be eaten by this lion.

2006-06-28T12:22:00.000-04:00

He found himself in a pasture, peat moss and the smell of sheep comforted him. David, grips the bottom of his father's robe. The cloth was coarse in his fingers. Earth beneath his feet sunk and suckled under his sandal. He turned the pint-sized crook in his left hand, imitating his father as he held watch over the sheep. They bleated and ate and David fondly inhaled the smell of the earth and the sheep’s natty fur mixed together.

Cloudlets, jagged and dark began to form over head. Replicas of them passed between his eyes and the light. The void surrounding filled with valley mist. Till whenever he looked in the well of his mind, it appeared no different than the same vantage point from childhood. All of the white gathers to a tiny point and explodes producing a blinding effect. It reformed itself into the shape of a lion, as it raced across the field. It snatched a lamb in its fearsome razors. A bleat came from the sheep that thorned David's heart. He was too young to know fear and set off after it. He followed the crying of the sheep. It sounded almost like any other that David may have yelled at, lost patience with, struck with his crook if it strayed too far from the group. This was different, pained, coming as it did from a lion's hungry grip.

He chased it further into the mist. All around him became thick and white, a misty sleeping light. Veiled bushes and trees that could not be seen kept blocking his path. Then in the blinking of an eye, morning broke. The mist burnt away and David was face to face with the lion. The beast made a guttural sound, a warning growl. The lamb laid before him, fur stained crimson but still alive. He concentrated on the blood soaking the soil. Stared into the pools of sheep's life. Streaking on the surface was a trail of light, it snatched his attention in its trajectory. Though, he didn’t know what it was it birthed an ill feeling inside of him. David sensed that it was a harbinger of dreadful things. One of God's epistles sent to earth on a trail of light. He wished to look at the sky, to see if the heavens were trying to communicate with him. But he could not tear his eyes away from the weeping pool of sheep's blood. The comet came again and again. Each time its pace of approach slackened. Until its motion ceased entirely and was contained in a frozen frame of crimson.

2006-06-27T11:29:00.000-04:00

Oh great, another male character. This one with a biblical name no less. And the Sheppard’s staff makes me think we will have some high quality blaspheme in this tale. Which I do not care for. I may be a boozed up, pill popping, diplomatic whore hopper but I do not mock scripture!

I wonder what he and I will be made to do together. Supposing he does in fact exist and that I am not delirious from my travels and making the whole thing up. I do not think it is the type of thing I would make up. But somebody might have made it up for me, then planted it, in my brain. Such things happen all the time, I'm told.

Like it? I drew it myself. Did I mention that I always carry crayons with me? Never knowing, when I might like to challenge someone to a sidewalk hop scotch showdown.

2006-06-26T14:12:00.000-04:00

Covered by the shape of his shepherd’s crook: sheep at play out in the field collapsing in on a dream he had as a child of slaying a giant with a handful of pebbles, the fall of the giant in slow motion, time-lapse imagery. Falling to the earth, the image of the giant faded to black and was reborn as a faint flickering light. David stared at it to see if he could go blind by looking. Growing larger in his vision, it blocked out all the light, all thought, all reason.

When the moon passed over the sun, the earth went dark. Animals hid. Humans cowered. A world bathed in superstition. The moon slid from the face of the sun. Light shone back at full intensity as if from everywhere and nowhere all at once. The whole of his brain then flickered on like a television screen. (This should be acknowledged as being anachronistic: the result of trying to extrapolate and describe images in terms modern mediums for those are our oracles not his.).

Camels with ropes over their humps trudged across the desert sand. Pulling behind them huge blocks made of glass. Prismatic in the sun, the sands of the desert turned red, then orange, orange into yellow into green from green to blue disappearing, infrared, ultraviolet, till finally their flickering stopped and they coated the desert sand like a stripped swathe of carpeting.

Transparent blocks surrounded David. Dripping water into pools of sand and mud, each pool a message. A camel walked through the puddle, a crescent shaped hoof print embedded in the muddy soil. The imprint soon filled with water on whose surface the image of the giant appeared. He fell on a continuous loop. There was no evidence of what caused it. Only the great collapse played over and over again in the tiny pool. Sometimes in dynamic slow motion, sometimes sped to an unrecognizable blur. The light of the sun reflected there and pushed the vision of the giant back into the darkened recesses. Brighter it glowed while growing smaller. Smaller than when David was a toddler. Life before he could remember it.

2006-06-14T13:57:00.000-04:00

Here is where things slow down, here in the near beginning of the story. I have finished my bottle, as you can see and wish I had another. There aren't likely to be any entertaining hallucinations from only one bottle. No army of ants with Maggie Thatcher's head marching at me, cooing with their tentacles about the need to defend the Falkland Islands. No orgy vision of her orally satisfying everyone in that terrible biker bar she hangs out in.

See that’s why she doesn't want to be with me. Those kinds of thoughts. Dark, serious, sexual, amoral. She is opposed to all. Still, I wish I had another bottle. The road is long and winding and if I had an aerial photograph I'd show you the road, bending like a river that cuts down a mountainside. I made this journey once with my father once, he told me then something I've never forgotten.

But I shall quiet my thoughts now, quiet them like slow music. Someone approaches....

2006-06-13T10:53:00.000-04:00

I headed north when the weather began to change. Left her here, at the beginning of the story. She wasn’t comfortable with conflict, character development or denouement so I was obliged to heed her wishes and leave her in the company of thieves and rough necks. She said it was only because she was so uncomfortable with change that she stayed around them. Knowing they would go no where in my story.

“You treat people like scenery in these things,” she once complained. And it was true I did. Their beards and bikes were backdrops. For me, they had no faces only a certain collective presence that aided in my creation of atmosphere.

I was willing to take her with me, to make her feel like someone real and not just the background I use to color these things and fool my readers into feeling like I am humane. But she said to go. She was afraid of what I would become once I got there. So was I but it didn’t stop me.

I hunt for the beast within. Especially when I drink. So I started up the road with a bottle of grain. The path was long and the city lay far away under a blanket of snow. I checked my sack to see if I had my camera. I don’t know why. I always carry it with me. I put some color film into the chamber and went in search of the gods that called me there.

2006-06-12T13:58:00.000-04:00

Of all the visions that had passed it was the only one that did not fit with any period of his life. So he was sure it was the only one that might possibly be true. David wanted to see it again to be sure. But he found he had no control over the visions. The light shrunk back to its candle strength and flickered before him. Teased him by, fading out only to spring back in all its elemental vibrancy.

David remembered how it started all those years ago. So he concentrated on the light, the more he drew his attention to it, the bigger it grew. A white screen, night in snow cover. David knew he had never seen snow up close before. Only from a distance as it crowned a mountain. His father told him it was cold and thick. As he stared at it now, he could make our some markings in the snow. Lions paws? It was some four-legged animal. He tried to feel the imprint with his eyes but just as he was making it part of his permanent memory it changed shapes again.

Curiosity Industry
Part Tweleve

The final echoes of that last syllable drove like nail through Herman's ear. As the sound of Grady's laughter snapped in his head, he charged at him swinging wildly and landed a long swooping right hand. He felt the reality of McDowell's existence as he followed through with the blow. Grady danced backwards, loosing his balance. Nasty cobwebs splintered in his head and he spilled to the ground. Herman turned back to McDowell, grabbed his arms and pulled them together behind the bully's back, digging a knee into his spine.

Grady cried, pitifully, and begged for mercy from Henry. "Make him stop, please stop." Grady's face flushed. He sobbed as Herman drove his leg deeper into his spine. Henry wrenched Herman from Grady's back and him on the ground.

Drunken laughter returned from the building at an even higher decibel. It flowed over Herman with the early light and woke his mind to anger. Sliding over to the driver's side, he re-ignited the engine.

After swimming all night in the memories of his brother, Herman paused. He tried to imagine what his brother might say to him. "But its wrong, Herman, a sin to steal. Sins stick pins in baby Jesus' crown," the voice protested.

Jim came from the building and screamed at the dust billowing from the road. His Cadillac disappeared into the brown fog, winding up the road to Cincinnati. A green blotch grew smaller, swallowed by the morning light.

THE END

The air rushed in waves through Herman's ear canal. Cincinnati now lay just beyond what the headlights could see. The black surrounding him felt heavy and his eyelids drooped.

"We'll be in Cincinnati soon boy," Jim raised the whiskey to his lips. "This Greasy Tit's weak. No wonder you like it. Look, I got to stop and see a business associate." He signaled right and pulled off the paved road. The road sign read that Cincinnati was dead ahead, they were on the way to Pempleston.

"Where we going mister?" Herman asked.

"A man who owes me money lives at the end of the road. You got to have money in the big city. Everything costs."

Jim handed Herman the jug. "You want any more of this shit? No? I'm going to dump it then. It's a waste of a perfectly fine jug to put that weak shit in it. My debtor here has some first rate whiskey. Kind’ll make your head spin."

"Just let me out mister."

"Easy son, I'll take you right into the city."

They pulled behind an abandoned brick warehouse. Broken windows breathed dust from their frames, the top third of the building had the name Emperiles painted on it. Trails of fine particles were touched with rusty hues in the morning's first light. The day had settled in as a quiet mist. Birds called from tree to tree in the small wooded area behind the building, the only sound at that hour except for the voices coming from inside. Deep laughter shook through the building's red brick walls. Echoed in the morning stillness, Grady McDowell's laugh now emerged from that buried place inside of Herman.

"Hen-ree are you tryin to be stupid?" He would chortle at him. Grady never got the satisfaction of a reply. His victim knew him well enough to realize that whatever he said would be used against him.

"Henry why don't you go at him?" Herman would plead. “He ain't so much you couldn't take him."

"No, Herman. Don't let him make you mad. Don't let him get you."

"You could take that fat horse’s ass," he encouraged his brother.

In time, Herman embarrassed his brother by fighting his fights for him. Henry never wanted him to get involved. He stuck close to the words of his ma and pa. And what he heard in church about loving your enemy and turning the other cheek.

"Hey dimwit you want to play checkers with Embry (his dog). I bet he beats ya." McDowell called out from his porch. An unbearably hot September morning snaked its way through town. Coils of heat unraveled down the short hill that the boys had to climb to get to school. McDowell glared at them from his lawn and spat black tobacco from between his teeth in their direction.

"Look," he called through the yellow cracks of teeth. "Its the stupids, little stupid and b-i-i-i-g stupid."

"I'm sorry you had such a bad time," Jim said after considering Herman's story. "Not all the shows are like that. That one was meant to frighten young folks. I know the man who runs that one in Foston. He's an old nasty sort. Got a wooden leg hisself."

"I guess I remember him sort scuffling ahead of us," Herman reached out over the side of the car and felt the rush of cooling air. His eyes were dry from the whiskey.

"Yeah," Jim took another snort of Greasy Tit. "Mean old son of a bitch no doubt about that. It'll be a bit before we get to Cincinnati. If you're tired you can go stretch out in back."

Herman's mind swam in equal measures of alcohol and memory. Cincinnati lay further out in the night. A dull sensation settled like a stone inside him. He could feel the miles separating him from Henry.

He’d spread out his coat and tried to roll Henry off the dirt and hay. Herman held his brother close and whispered reminders that he was there with him. Henry's body shuttered and heaved, the vibrations shook through Herman, who convulsively held him tighter.

"Hen," he whispered, struggling to keep his mouth near his brother's ear, "you want to go and wait for ma and pa where we left them."

"I'm sorry I cried," Henry replied, the fit ending abruptly.

"That's okay Henry. You had good reason to," Herman said and helped his brother sit up.

"Sometimes the boy in my class. The one I tells you ‘bout."

"You mean Grady?" Herman squatted down next to this brother.

"He brings 'em other kids. And tries to upset me."

"I'd like to get that Grady," Herman pulled Henry to his feet.

"He's awfully big Herman."

"Bet you the two of us could cut him down."

"Ma don't want us getting into fights," Henry wiped the dirt off his socks and shoes.

"Ma don't know how mean some people are."

"You shouldn't let them get to you Herman. I don't. I know what they trying to do."

Back amongst the mayhem, whose call a few minutes ago promised freedom and adventure but now sounded mocking, Henry sobbed as quietly as he could so as to not embarrass his brother. Herman took a handkerchief from his back pocket and offered it to his brother. He had seen Henry get upset many times. Knowing how to stop it, was one of the ways he counted himself as a good brother.

"Let's get some candy Henry," Herman suggested, surprised to see that the expression on his brother’s face hadn’t changed.

They made their way through the crowd to the vendors who had set up carts filled with junk food of every conceivable variety. Cotton candy wound like pink clouds on thin wooden sticks, the steam from roasted nuts curled up in a colorful mist beneath multicolored bulbs. Fried food, ice cream and candy of every conceivable variety stretched itself out in aroma trails luring the brothers.

Henry tugged at his brother's shirt, nearly tearing its stitching out of the sleeve. He wanted to find mom and dad. Herman said that they shouldn’t. He told his brother that ma and pa didn’t want to be bothered. He wanted to calm his brother down first. Herman mentioned that they could get some cotton candy, eat it, and then go find their parents.

Henry turned white as a ghost at the suggestion. He watched the candy form itself on a stick out of nothing suggesting a cruel magic at work. A man with a giant squash head, a woman with a beard and her daughter waving her crab claw hands floated above him on a pink cloud. He dropped from his brother's side and collapsed, falling to paroxysms of bewilderment.

she tried to recreate her life around memories of her father

She posed men poised against the sky with their children,
planted like trees in mother earth,
rag-taggle families of tinkers and wanderers

Orphaned now for many years
she didn’t know the difference between a family argument
and the purest hint of true violence
which she saw written all over childish faces
she had nightmares about their conflicts for many years

Over the years, innumerable sightings of her father
have proved to be thoroughly and tastefully unfounded

Working in a mental hospital, he photographed incoming patients
his grim, grey 1933 mural transposed to a world of strong light, intense color and heat
melted the eyes of curators in galleries out west

At home in Cincinnatti, he played slow, mournful tunes
and refashioned himself as a bluegrass troubadour

Things looked bleak, the old man's scratchy home made tapes
no longer offered her hope
basking in the tide of international goodwill, she couldn’t say why

A hangover from their days spent photographing religious meeting houses
other women and other women's children behaved in cruel ways
towards her, made her feel incomplete
she didn’t have a mommy

The outcome presented a clear choice
amalgamated with its similarly struggling rival,
mysticism and its connection with the very soil
she took her own life with the very blade
Daddy Edward used to splice together family albums

Small town fairs once attracted big crowds. It was the only game in town. Take a look at the crowd in this photo. It was given to me by my host family the Teeges. Can you spot the hermaphrodite?

Of course, rubes had to be ever wary of swindlers. County fairs were magnets for con artists and "macth stick" men. And worse...........

The chemicals they used to rid your home of bugs were highly toxic and addictive. Note the eyes of the man on the left (Rory McClane), paranoid, down cast. It is the faraway stare of the dope fiend. He cut his powder with baby laxative and shot the rest up himself. Taking intravenously, the powder produced an intense high but left the user feeling sick once the chemical had run its course. Which of course fed into an ever widening circle of addition until before long old Rory could barely get out of bed.

This photo is from his last county fair. Rory died a month after it was taken. His body was dumped in a cheap cemetery plot. There is seldom a stone to mark the passing of the dope fiend.

Shattered fragments of Henry’s screaming rang in Herman's memory as the empty night continued to peel overhead. Unaware that his passenger had been ignoring him, Jim went into unnecessary detail describing the talents of his clients. Crumbell would have liked to stay away from the subject of his work. A good promoter can't really help himself, though; talking up his acts had become involuntary.

"She's a right good woman. Husband and kids, who I might add show no sign yet of the abnormal hair growth that afflicted their mother." He paused to snort through his nose. The whiskey tasted cheaper than it was and burnt his face from his eyes. "Of course the eldest only seven so it's still too soon to tell."

He passed the jug to his passenger who took a gulp that was too large. Herman coughed violently, dribbling some on his shirt.

"Whoa, watch the interior now son. This thing's practically brand new." The car wove from side to side as Jim struggled to regain his composure, expectorating something through his nostrils. The white glare of headlights illuminated the road with a wild unsteadiness.

"My brother and I saw a woman like that once. At a fair in Foston," Herman interjected at the first chance. The empty moment filled with the memory of that night. He could still hear the barkers, still smell the food and animal scents combining in the air. “This old feller with a stripped suit and a bow tie took our money and told us to follow him behind a curtain into a darkroom. Then some other feller threw the lights on and right in front of us was this fat woman, with curly hair and a beard as bushy and thick as they say Paul Bunyon's was. The old one starts talking in this smart sounding voice: 'Ladies and gentlemen gaze upon on the Lord's cruelest mistake. Fiona was born with the body of a woman but the follicles of a man.' She just stood there with this real hung expression on her face. He went on talking about how she's a mute too and that she can't get a man. So I start to feel real bad for her. I wished that old guy would just clam up. Next thing I know, my brother's bawling and shakin'. Since, I was kind of older, in the head, I led him out of there. While leaving, I heard the old man start up behind me about Simon, this guy that couldn't stand up because his head was too big. This just gets Henry crying all the more. So we get outside and I ask him if he was all right. Hen said he felt bad for the woman cause she looked so sad."

Herman and Henry turned and ran into a mob of carnivallers, loosing themselves in the excitement. Several large striped tents dotted the field, decorated at the top by banners with triangular tails. Games of chance and skill appeared at every turn; people shot water pistols at balloons and lost at the ring toss game no one had really ever won. Barkers, wearing white hats with a checkered band just above the brim, called out from their stations: "One, two, three rings, three chances for a nickel. Big prizes"; "Don't be shy folks, don't be shy"; "The most outstanding ointment money can buy. Fresh from government subsidies." In the distance at the midway's end, a Ferris wheel loomed over the proceedings, sparkling like a crown of costume jewels.

"I want to see," Henry pleaded and pulled at his brother's arm. He pointed to a blue and white striped tent. From beneath came snippets of alluring sounds: an organist played cheery music to a smattering of applause over a man's voice, which called out in praise of the amazement in the center ring. Herman gave into his brother's gravity and they both drifted towards the tent. Just outside the entrance was a plywood booth tended by a man with greased hair, pulled tight to his scalp. He smelled of liquor and a life misspent.

"I'm sorry boys the show is full," he said, displaying a row of gold and silver teeth.

"Any clowns?" Henry asked up on his tiptoes, resting his elbows on the booth's thin plywood shelf.

"Yes, son. But as I was saying the entertainment has commenced I cannot let you in 'til the next show. Ten o'clock."

"Ten?" Herman cried. “Come on Henry, we ain’t got time.”

"Any place got clowns?" Henry dug his elbows into the counter.

"I don't think so. The closest thing might be the Oddities Exhibition over yonder," the ticket taker indicated a similar booth off in the distance. "No show time, folks can go in and out continuous."

"Oddities Exhibition? Never heard of it," Herman stepped towards the booth and peered at the man over his brother's shoulder.

"They got some unusual folks in there to be looked at. It's the closest thing to clowns, I guess or you could see the world's largest yellow squash in the back there," he nodded his head back behind his tent. "422 pounds, that's something to see."

"Their faces painted?" Henry continued his questioning.

"No but they got a woman with a beard. And I think they got a girl with crab claws for her hands." He beamed with pride, describing the unfortunates on display.

Henry shrieked at the image suggested by the ticket taker's description, a girl brushed a woman's beard with the crab claw comb that was her hand; its serrated edges separating the coarse hair. Herman pleaded quietly with his brother to quiet down and not make a scene. Henry became embarrassed and not wanting to further annoy his brother agreed to go see the "Oddities."

The street that ran through the center of Kendricksburg was wide enough to allow for parking on either side. Herman had never seen so many cars before. He followed the moonlight as it passed quivering in silver over each model.

They pulled up to the general store. A heavyset proprietor waddled towards the car, his lungs worked hard to keep the flow of oxygen going. Sweat soaked through his dirty white shirt and apron.

"We're closing wait do you want?" he gasped.

"Carolina blend and a big jug of Greasy Tit Whiskey, please," Jim tilted his head towards Herman and offered a smile. The shopkeeper grumbled, turning with some effort back towards the door.

Above the store, the name Finn Brothers called out in a blinding number of tiny light bulbs, twinkling on the hood of the car. Their reflection reminded Herman of the first time he and his brother were permitted to wonder off by themselves.

Odd to be back here

Driven out by government offensives
getting stuck in traffic
the refugees could face death
or worse capture, then enslavement
at the hands of mysterious figures
who haunt the west coast
like vestiges of an age when men
still measured themselves with iron
and women were content to follow them

A California couple was rumored to have created
a mini-savannah replete with zebras, giraffes, cheetahs
free range humans will complete the menagerie

the husband spoke on condition of anonymity
his words echoed eternally in the famous war photo
of the soldier who decoded the coffee bean’s genes

as slaves they will adjust to life,
breathe on their own
as they recover from operations
anthropomorphization in reverse

In his line of work, Crumbell met shysters of every size and shape. At first he thought the boy could be a thief. The flesh on his face pulled so tight that his cheekbones rose up with their full shape defined. Around his eyes, the skin had been tenderized by exhaustion, probably too many nights of sitting up hungry. Crumbell found that hunger turned honest men into thieves and forced folks to do things they ought to refrain from. Still, Herman couldn't give big Jim any trouble. It looked to Crumbell that he was lucky if he had strength enough to pull on his own pants.

"I'm headed up river myself, junior. You can ride with me to Cincinnati." Jim motioned for the boy to get in the car.

"I got money for fuel," Herman proudly produced a wrinkled ten dollar bill from his breast pocket as he shut the car door. Cupping it in his hand, he extended it for Crumbell to examine.

"Hold on to it son," Jim put the car into gear. "We're going to be coming up on Kendricksburgh you can buy me a bottle of whiskey when we get there."

"Only if we get Greasy Tit, that's my brand." Herman announced.

"Hell for ten dollars we can get a month's worth of old GT. I say we go high class and get Berman's. That's my brand." Jim pushed the accelerator pedal down and the car lurched forward.

"You're on mister," Herman thought about life in the big city, of how it must be full of adventure. New automobiles, top shelf hooch, women, parties and money for his family all colored his hopes as they headed down the road.

"What kinda work you headed to the city for?" Jim asked, conversation would keep that dull ache from his head.

"Why you wanta know?" Herman crossed his arms over his chest.

"Just making conversation boy," Jim laughed.

"What do you do?" The boy took a challenging tone.

"I'm a promoter in the curiosity industry." Jim's voice carried a note of pride as he carefully announced his self-appointed title.

"What? You talking in circles mister. What do you promote?"

"Midwest talent in the entertainment industry."

"What? I don't get it. Are you in the movies?"

"Hardly," Jim snorted. "I'm respectable. I work in the live theater."

"Are you that smart ass who tried to put those sacrilegious Shakespeare plays on up in Fosston?"

"No, no I don't go in for them foreign entertainments," Jim explained. "My interests lie primarily in small local amusements."

"Freak shows?"

"I prefer the term Curiosities son." Jim spoke deliberately, a little annoyed at having to explain the complexities of his work. "These folks are my friends, they are not freaks. No more so than a great singer, great actor, or a great musician. They are performers with unusual and spectacular abilities. It's starting to get late," Jim informed Herman, anxious to change the topic. "We'll stop in Kendricksburgh soon and load up with some supplies."

"I need some tobacky too," Herman said.

"Tobacco and whiskey, you live pretty hard for such a youngin." Jim trailed off with a chuckle.

"I work for the family that gives me the right to do what I want, " Herman followed his declaration by spitting through his teeth the way his pa used to, before he got sick and couldn't get out a bed no more, let alone hock a decent luggie.

Slum

increased consumption of a much loved and admired thinker
because of his love of architecture and modern cities
proves that ideas about where we should live and how
are at the heart of global questions

slums filled with
men and women who have chosen to stay at work because they
claim to adore their jobs
playing out a nervous and unconvincing love scene
a pair of fleeing convicts, chained ankle to ankle and hip to hip
by a kind of debilitating lust

at the heart of the thinker’s considerations,

how burdensome failures and disappointments
turn into victories
how the unique and mundane
travel hand in hand so often
in the modern world

how to reconcile it all
so that we can live with one another
no matter the overcrowding or how much our jobs
make us feel like prisoners
indentured to faceless masters
who would do well to curb our
natural appetites for love or at the minimum
real human contact

...from a flier passed out at an unidentified Protestant Church in Southeastern Ohio around the time of our story.

BEWARE THE HUN!!!!

Dear Brother,

Are you planning a trip to visit the various of jewels with which our Lord has blessed the Ohio River Valley? Well, do as all good Christians do and keep Cincinnati off your eye-tinary. It is a veritable Hun’s Haven on the shores of God’s land. These dirty migrants come to ruin farmland and embibe alcoholic spirits.

THE HUN IS A MENANCE! AND SHOULD BE AVOIDED AT ALL COSTS!!!

Yours in God,

Jim saw Herman ahead on the shoulder of the road. To his eyes, the boy looked more an outline, a suggestion in a shadow than a person. Not too long gone were the days Jim suffered himself, thumbin’ and dreamin’ not of tomorrow but of being down the road a piece. He slowed and pulled close.

"Where ya headed?" Jim asked using a white handkerchief to shield his mouth and nose.

"The Queen City, mister."

"Cincinnattitown! What you headed there for?" Jim asked.

"My uncle's got work for me in his shop."

"Uncle eh? What's your name?"

"Herman Matchstow."

"How old are you?" Jim searched over the young hitchhiker, thinking he might be a run away.

"Sixteen sir."

"Sixteen? Shouldn't you be in school?"

"Times tough for my family....," Herman paused and eyed his benefactor suspecting some trickery or another were afoot. "What's your name?"

"Jim Crumbell. Kinda young to be going to Cincinnati for a job ain't ya?"

"Times are real tough."

“I know times are tough son. I’ve been all over. I know folks is struggling.”

"It's real rough for my folks right now."

"How so boy?" As a businessman, Crumbell needed details not vagaries to close a deal.

"My papa's sick. Mama tries to make money but it ain't easy for womenfolk to make enough to feed a family all on her own." Herman glanced away from Jim hoping to make it appear that his hungry stare was a trick of the twilight.

A checkered bandanna to his mouth, Herman steadied himself in the breeze coming down the highway, the teeming dust all aswirl around him. Long for his age, in the middle of those awkward teenage years, his arms and legs had outgrown the rest of his slender frame. Resembling a scarecrow come to life, he lurched down the road with his thumb in the air.

His family was in a bit of a rough patch. His pa had been sick and his ma had four kids to mind. Herman's leaving at least made it one less for her. He hoped to earn enough money to send something back.

Herman couldn't shake the uneasy feeling in his gut at leaving his brother, Henry at the mercy of the town bully. But Herman's family was counting on him to hold a job and help them out, the best he could. He had been the protector almost as long as Henry been alive. It was time Henry learned to take care of himself.

Jim headed east, following the mighty Ohio. He had rolled back the top. The wind whistled through his ears and played humbly in his thinning hair. Filled with the kinda confidence only luxury provides, he felt the world would soon be at his feet. He pulled up to the Toad Stool Bar in Wrensville, wanting to see how the new car would play with the fairer sex.

“Your car?” the blonde next to him asked, pointing to the picture window, Jim had been careful to park in front of. Otherwise, what was the point of owning such a fine machine.

“Yeah sugar it’s mine. Want to go for a spin around the block.”

“Can’t. Meeting someone. You could buy me a drink, Mister?”

“I’m Jim.”

“I’m Miss Michelle Anderson.”

Miss Michelle Anderson claimed to be a dancer. Jim said that he was a manager. Neither of which was a total lie. She danced sometimes. Mainly to get the juicier parts of her package a-jigglin'. And he “handled talent” as he put it. Though some folks could question exactly what his performers were talented at besides scaring rubes.

Jim didn’t come here to impress with the whole story, just half of it. He’d planned to let the car fill in the rest. Happily, he found that Michelle was quick to cotton to the charms of a man who could call such a marvel of engineering his own. Before she left his side , she checked to make sure they were unobserved then leaned to Jim and whispered, “I'm leaving soon back to Chicago. Come back in two days and I’ll let you drive me home.” The afternoon heat combined with her gin breath produced an intoxicating aroma. Jim inhaled her greedily, like a horse sniffing after a coming storm.

Newport Preservation Society

frosted electric light bulb,
lone decoration on a Christmas tree
a trailer truck east of New Orleans

heard about the place from acquaintances
who grew up in the neighborhood where
an official of the agency in a position
to rededicate himself to Creole
or develop another, more natural language,
rules out a communications pay off
for those who can’t follow

instead he wrote a decree
in the middle of a heat wave:

“there were from time to time,
instances in which the modern world would lose itself
like Baghdad in April”

live music and outlandish cocktails high atop
a light-filled space from where visitors can orient themselves
offers memorable photo opportunities of places destroyed
before they are blown completely from memory
by vulgar wind sonnets and ten thousand bombs
