Preliminary thoughts

Preliminary thoughts on new writing south and meeting Brian Catling



In search

in search in search search s eeerch

just another urchin

in the life   Brian

objects    a catling gun  

cattle

cat  

catch me

just pen nibs to collect

no cartridge cases

puts me on my metal

subjects

me

we  I eye eyed

subjected

to experience  s  

pushed into place  

into history

into time  

ah!  back to dying

fragments left behind

on mantlepieces

hap pi ness    in the south  so th u  

mark s  on the page boy

writing of happiness   embarrassment

all my life in search  of    happiness   no

human potential

your daughter is exceeding her poetential

potent that

the wrong word  

word for a tyrant

do not exceed your poetential

why write nonsense  

it is not Art  

what is art?

object   ion

impermanence  ugghhh

I want to leave my mark

Did you not read Heidegger?

Marks are meaningless

no just not important

stuff

get stuffed

we   need to be remembered

amen to that

marks in the memory

stay forever  

do not decay

but brains decay

We are one ONE  won

in the mind of Dog

unless he is dys something or other

all confused

in quanta without envelopes

We are seen

and remembered

I am afraid to be such things as dreams are made on

of?

There is no dog

But we are soul

we are momentarily embodied

More than moments

I and this body-shell-being

which comes to life and dreams and dies and is reborn

want to become Dog

I am dog if I but knew myself

Marks on the landscape

we on the floor

happy man

Where is the drama?

where is the text?

where is

the performance

Art?
