why this blog will fail

because I am all over the place, and think more in terms of aspects and fragments than coherent and consistent arguments.

because I resist being pinned down or serious.

because I tend to make things complicated beyond my own ability to understand them, and that is rarely a basis for good writing.

because I don't have a personal need for a large scale signaling exercise, especially one that requires anonymity.

write about 1

some creative writing exercises about water and its foils:

write about gradual dilution of salt, or about perfect saline

write about the asperated particles from a cough, ending with their dispersion, and starting with the bark from the diaphragm

write about the water preserved as criminal evidence from a victim of drowning

write about rippling and dissipation of energy in sauces and stews

My twitter stream consists of the useless thoughts of others, not my own

nostalgia for less is more

less was more, at one time.
now, less is an empty gullet
to more's prefabricated circus.

the past holds clarity of little
once we were spare

now mounds, then icicles
or now the result of the extent of erosion
moisture
decay, or just the sound of information
positing as Other

caught up, but when?

i have let the world make its mark
and i still oppose it by learning

meditations 1

meditation on reconstructive grammar
meditation on the idempotence of dying
meditation on the binary goo between zero and one
meditation on refolding
meditiation on the lost sauce
