IT WAS NOT DARKNESS, BUT IT CAME OUT OF
|
||
DARKNESS, JUST THE SAME
|
||
|
||
IT WAS GIVEN A NAME AND THAT NAME WAS GIVEN TO SOMEONE ELSE,
|
||
BELONGED TO SOMEONE ELSE, IT WAS NOT REALLY HIS NAME, THOUGH
|
||
IT DREW TO ITSELF WHAT IT COULD NOT CONTAIN, AS A FUSE DRAWS
|
||
A SPARK TOWARD AN ALLNESS, DRAWS A COMPLETENESS TOWARD AN
|
||
INCOMPLETENESS, TOTALITY TOWARD ITS SEED, THE GAP BETWEEN
|
||
THE TWO...IMMEASURABLE...
|
||
|
||
AND IT WAS THE NAME WHICH WAS GIVEN OF OTHER THINGS THAT MOST
|
||
NEARLY APPROXIMATED HIS NAME, SUCH AS BLUE FOR SKY OR RUN AND
|
||
LEAP, FOR FREEDOM
|
||
|
||
AND SO THE NAME HE WAS GIVEN MADE AN INSIDE-OUT, MADE A
|
||
SOMETHING GOING THROUGH A SOMETHING TO SOME OTHER SIDE AS
|
||
A COMPLETE CHANGE, AS IN BEING A COMPLETE CHANGE, AS IN
|
||
FROM NOTHING TO SUNSHINE, A QUICK AWARENESS THAT THEN SEEMED
|
||
TO HAVE ALWAYS BEEN GIVEN, HIS INITIAL FORGETFULNESS THE
|
||
ANNIHILATION OF ALL THOUGHT AND MEMORY JUST TO START, JUST
|
||
TO BEGIN TO GET HERE, AND THE SURROUND OF ALL THAT HAD BEEN
|
||
AFTER THAT, WAITING FOR SOMEONE TO LEAP, TO BE AND BECOME AND
|
||
TRANSFORM, WHAT WOULD HAVE ALWAYS THEN BEEN THE ESSENTIAL
|
||
AGREEMENT, AND THAT BEFORE NOW WAS IMPOSSIBLE DUE TO ALL THE
|
||
END-GAMES AND DEAD-ENDS, TRAGEDIES AND EVASIONS, AND SIMPLE
|
||
UNTIMELINESS AS YET, THAT THE SURROUND HAD TAKEN UPON ITSELF,
|
||
UNSPEAKABLY, AND IN THE ULTIMATE FAITH OF LOSS'S COMPLETE
|
||
EXPERIENCE, AND THE SOMETHING LEFT OVER FROM THERE, EXPRESSED
|
||
IN THEIR WISHES, THROUGH THE NAME HE WAS GIVEN, AND NOW WITHIN
|
||
WHICH WAS LIGHT, OR THE AWARENESS WHICH HAD ALWAYS THUS BEEN,
|
||
THROUGH THE PROOF THAT YOU RENDER
|
||
|
||
HE MOVED WITHIN AND TOUCHED AND TO BECOME THIS AWARENESS AND
|
||
WHICH WAS THUS AN INITIAL DIRECTION THE ENACTMENT OF WHICH
|
||
FUSED BEYOND EXPRESSION WITH AND AS THE ACTUAL DESTINATION
|
||
|
||
AND THAT IS WHAT IT WAS THAT CONTINUALLY CAME OUT OF THE
|
||
DARKNESS BUT WAS NOT THE DARKNESS ITSELF
|
||
|
||
AND THAT WHEN IT HAD BECOME WHAT THE DIRECTION WAS AS PERSON,
|
||
HIS NAME WAS THE SAME AS THE ACCUMULATION OF ALL THE EVENTS
|
||
AND DISTANCES TO GET HERE, UNPRONOUNCEABLE THUS, HIS BEING,
|
||
AND THEN THE OTHER NAME HE WAS GIVEN, THE FOREIGN NAME, THE
|
||
COMMON ONE NAME, NOT THE INEXPRESSIBLE, WOULD BE SOMETHING
|
||
ELSE AGAIN, THE NAME WITHOUT THE WOUND OF ARRIVAL, WITHOUT
|
||
THE EXPERIENCE OF ANNIHILATION IN HAVING LEFT ALL BEHIND
|
||
|
||
AND ALL THAT HE NOW WAS, WOULD THUS COME INTO AND THROUGH
|
||
THAT ONE AND THE SAME INEXPRESSIBLE NAME, IN A WORD THAT
|
||
HAD ALREADY BEEN AGREED TO, FROM A PLACE THAT WAS YET FUTURE
|
||
TO NOW, EVEN BEING HERE, THUS, AND TO YOU, A SEED THAT THE
|
||
EARTH SURROUNDS WITHOUT KNOWING

Good afternoon, didn't that make you feel the same
|
||
way you felt when you watched the opening scenes
|
||
to Phantom Menace Star Wars? All that text moving?
|
||
Should've. Hi, I'm prime anarchist, and this is the
|
||
zine for the second week or so of March, Two Thousand
|
||
and One.
|
||
That was written by my new friend John Lord. He sent
|
||
it to me a little while back, but I thought 267 would
|
||
be the best issue to tuck it in. And after reading it
|
||
a third or fourth time, I decided the very beginning
|
||
was the best place of all to place it. For after all:
|
||
|
||
WHAT'S IN A NAME?
|
||
|
||
Well, "One Robin Don't Mean Spring." But two blizzards
|
||
usually do, right? This takes me back to when I was about
|
||
9 years old, and May 8 was opening day for my Little League
|
||
baseball team. The date sticks out in my mind because it
|
||
was either the day I was "born" or/and it was [also]
|
||
Mothers Day. And to top it off, there was not only a
|
||
threat of being rained out, there was the notion that we
|
||
were about to be SNOWED in! In May? You got it. I'm glad
|
||
this year's blizzard came in February or March, know what
|
||
I mean? Who wants to do "April Showers" and the "May Snow."
|
||
You know that cold, wet feeling and a smell that can't
|
||
articulate into english-language words that lingers the
|
||
day before? Well I also remember a high fly ball when I
|
||
was trying to be left-field instead of catcher. The thing
|
||
came down and hit my glove like a bullet out of the chamber
|
||
of a Columbine-third-shooter's missing gun. My hand felt
|
||
like every bone shattered. It was about 28 degrees out.
|
||
I remember the following year, Little League corporation
|
||
(LLC?) passed a directive that there was to be no more
|
||
practices during temperatures below 34 deg.
|
||
But that was the following year. The damage had already
|
||
been done. No, not physically. My uncle (a has-been who
|
||
almost played for the Boston RedSox, but his dad made him
|
||
go to college instead of wait out full recruitment by
|
||
Boston, having only had the chance to play for the
|
||
Pawtucket Red Sox) called me "sissy" and "pussy" because
|
||
I cried that the ball made my hand hurt. C'mon Uncle, I
|
||
was eight years old for cryin' out loud.
|
||
I learned one of my most devastating lessons that day,
|
||
May 8th. One it took me about 20 years to unlearn. Boys
|
||
are(n't) supposed to cry. I guess what this is all about
|
||
is me trying to tell people (men AND women, but especially
|
||
you hardened, lonely island-of-a-human men out there...)
|
||
if you need to cry both outside AND inside. Gush man. Don't
|
||
be a fool. Cry your little you-know-what off if you need to.
|
||
Get it out so your neck doesn't turn all red and you don't
|
||
end up beating someone nearly to death, or picking up a gun
|
||
and wasting someone. Do it now. Tomorrow is too late. Your
|
||
rage can easily be your son's school shooting; trust me, it
|
||
spreads like a Saturday Reagan radio address, or a Hitler
|
||
BeerHall screaming match.
|
||
Cry like a baby, cry like a big fat dweeb, cry like a
|
||
lion who lost his mate. But cry if you need to.
|
||
And this last 'graph of my column is a shoutout and greet
|
||
to my new friends at Attic Bookstore. You know who you are.
|
||
The Magnificant Seven. Because I'm tellin' ya. If it weren't
|
||
for being able to cry, and St. Johns Wort, I'd of been dead
|
||
5 years ago.
|
||
|
||
What I can't stand about VH-1?
|
||
When they say "tonite" and it's 9am.
|
||
|
||
And since when did Pfizer corp and Warner Lambert merger?

Thank you for emailing President Bush.
|
||
Your ideas and comments are very important
|
||
to him.
|
||
Unfortunately, because that last sentence
|
||
was a complete lie, the President cannot
|
||
possibly take time for your message. However,
|
||
the White House Staff reviews every email
|
||
message and reports citizen ideas, concerns
|
||
and sometimes even hate mail to the President.
|
||
Again, thank you for your email. Your
|
||
interest in contacting the President by
|
||
email is appreciated.
|
||
Sincerely,
|
||
Autoresponder
|
||

George W Bush quite frankly, sucks.

Do you recognise all the songs you hear

Well I could say the same

Of course I heard them first

I'm a ghostwriter

Oh I'm a ghostwriter

Oh

Did you really believe those clowns compose
|

Haven't you noticed the playback at their shows
|
||
Well they don't want you to hear how they really sound
|

And they don't want me to be anywhere around
|

'Cause I'm their ghostwriter

THEY'RE MICROCHIPPING WHO???
|
||
2. Any dog or cat which changes ownership or is
|
||
newly acquired by an owner (by sale or gift) will
|
||
be required to have an identification microchip
|
||
implanted (by an authorised implanter, usually
|
||
a veterinarian) before it can be registered. All
|
||
dogs currently owned and registered will have to
|
||
be microchipped over the next three years.
|
||
|
||
3. It will not be compulsory for owners to have
|
||
the cats which they already own microchipped, but
|
||
it will be compulsory to register the cat with the
|
||
Council.

"students."
