  • 1. regain consciousness without assistance of alarm(s);
    2. light first cigarette despite concurrent resolution against continuation of such;
    3. alight upon futon, which, in practice, is nothing but a couch with possibilities;
    4. worry a poorly toasted croissant beyond dismemberment, then leave it to die a slow, lonely death, wounds untended;
    5. pay scant attention to another movie that hollywood forgot (or never really knew) on cable;
    6. return to the keyboard and monitor that stand synechdochettishly for communication and connection;
    7. remain conscious from this improvised (almost impoverished) sunday-morning-on-a-sunday-afternoon
        until such time as seems appropriate to relinquish the state;
    8. wonder why we (in the british plural-singular speaking subject) wax whimiscal...


    [an attempt at alphabetical alliteration, and also agressive americana]:

    always assume all americans are asymptotically amoral (a.k.a. assholes).
    big brother belligerently beseeches:  begin by belittling beggars, brothers and broads.
    continue by callously categorizing contingent co-conspirators;
    deliberately, delicately denigrating democracy.
    effect elaborate elocutions; ever election-minded, ever establishmentarianist (e.g.):
    "forget family-values, father! 
         for free fun, fuck fairness! 
         fly flags furiously for freedom! 
         feel free:  fear foreigners forever!
    grab great, glistening golden gobs! 
         go, greedy; get greed glutted! 
         garner godless goals!"
    head held hellward, heed hedonism humanely;
         heuristic hearts harmfully holding hatred hidden.
    ignore innocence (immaturely injured intentions in infinite insurrection);
         inuredness (i.e. insanity) instantly and inaccurately identifiying
         incongruities, inconsistent intimacies (ibid.), and ignorantly inflicted injuries.
    just joking, jesus! 
    kill kindness, knowingly, knowledgeably. 
    location, locution, locomotion! 
    merciless masters, manaically monitoring mass murders (in the millions!
         meanwhile multiplicitous, murmuring minions mindlessly mimick murky manifestoes),
    never notice national negativity;
         neutralize nostalgia;
         negate non-compliance
         (next, non-compliants).
         newsworthy or nothing! 
    opportunism over ontology;
         overlords of oracular omniscience;
         opposition in obscured obsolescence;
    paternalistic, powerhungry pigs preventing pluralism;
    quaint quaker quills quite quieted;
    revulsion; recantation. 
    sleepy. 
    time to...
    uhhh...
    voluntarily
    weaken...
    xylophone...
    youthful
    zealousness...

  • What are you doing on xanga?
    You need to submit this to Harper's, immediately.

  • You are brilliant. If you had my courage? or drive? and I had your ability, we'd be one hellofa writer! Speechless.

  • RYC I believe you have those things...but I was searching for the whatever it is that prevents you or blocks you. For me, talent and probably that I'm often a huge half-ass even though I write a lot. I don't write well a lot.
    So I guess I should say: If you had my something, the something that keeps me writing no matter what and I had your ability...holy shit we'd write a lot of really good stuff. And I'd send it all in too!
