Overlapping Orange Thought Balloons by Cocteau easily GLAM as volcanic ash whipped-by-the-wind into passionately aeolian contours. And, keeping that in mind: because she went off on the tu form, her second phone call was exponentially more intimate than envisioned. Imagined. BEACH CLOSED. Previously, Austria was a disjunctive of Prussia. And those were dark, dark days. Yet […]

Scraping Blackboards in a World Without Love and/or: Short Waves in the City of Light, Scraping Concrete, Dancing on Myth, Swallowing Up All the Mercury Vapour in Sight by Cocateau The door is open, dusk/ can be so beautiful.

Aarrrgh! as Experience
A postmodern artist or writer is in the position of a philosopher: the text he writes, the work he produces are not in principle governed by pre-established rules, and they cannot be fudged according to a determining judgment, by applying familiar categories to the text or to the work. Those rules and categories are what the work of art itself is looking for. –Jean-Francois Lyotard
The Idea of North
The Idea of North by Cocteau The Idea of North.  Coldly practical. Why are we drawn to over-the-top-stair-seriality merely to drift into an impression of order at just keys, or to plumb tone-centers of melodious grapes. The hunter captured by the game. It’s location. Silver apples. It’s perdido, it’s predation. (Not a good word.) Zo, […]
Texting Spiral Jetties
Them! by cocteau Physics & labia, pocketa-pocketa. G=L=O=R=I=A~ The fascia of every object/ consumes the colour of its adjacent. No event is innate in/[or] its exclusive colour, obviously ever a denunciation of the notion that time is constant or deterministic. O broad panorama! Lush life, expanding deep space, blue hills, vales and/ yes– wild, wild oases/ […]

When Earth Bathed its Sidewalks in Octobery Chalk Strokes
When Earth Bathed its Sidewalks in Octobery Chalk Strokes by cocteau A chalky, palm-printy arc of the rendering is believed to be the progenitor of a fifteenth-century Milanese labyrinthine-red-on-pink on Oooh-bla-dee. Inky– diffuse, aglow, rotating like June moons around a gentle star. Thus, very like the correspondence of actual to perceived position. Which, if altered […]
By Aeroplane to Iceland
By Aeroplane to Iceland by cocteau She looked down to the tea table, humming. Remembering. All bird songs are learnt within the first month after learning to fly. You always remember where the tiger attacked you. Like cloud-to-cloud lightning. Looking down into the interior was a small air-pressure gauge which pretty much told its own […]
Ascending Degrees of Mirage
Ascending Degress of Mirage by cocteau Decending Scales of Trance  O, it’s a hot damn day, yet, it would take 700 suns to span the diameter of Antares. Sergeants stress this because there is a dearth of salt tablets.  American troops are landing on the Cuban shore at DaiqurÃ. Great columns of men moving […]
