Picturesque tropes of wonder and mercy, fitfuls pitfalls precocious and sublime
Casting about with others in mind here, clipboard to chart, what doing with language, directly and indirectly.
Yesterday my substack was red. Now its a muted sea blue. I consider my surface at sub — kind of perfunctory as they are manipulated pictures migrated off of splash.
My substack is high dungeon saturated I think. Examines areas that engage in picturesque tropes of wonder and mercy, also something writers call flow into the loath factory, and Oscar Wilde's trying to be funny ?! yes I have been told that I engage with humor as a way of dealing with both the bitter and the trite.
I know this and try to exploit it as an intellectual gorgonzola, that the writing itself springs from the cheese, a bold tasting mold of necrosis, disintegration integrations reefs of doodle noodle and captivated destruction. Looking to continue to do inverts on the invent’ory — what raids through the ages pages of rages and gurgles of falling stalking, also stalling, at war at heart of fitfuls and the pitfalls, precocious and sublime.
My own personal site which I seem to redo every 6-8 months -- right now is very blocky, a lighter sea blue, red, black lines and type, hundreds of files of my writing in 7 plus sections (calling The Dust Bin) -- all still being worked on and organized in some way every day.
My books are infused with mechanisms! That y’all know I love from Joyce and Beckett like they are taking me on --
My writing finds things by pushing the linear in and out of entanglements with the poetic and religiously philosophically picturesque. The language I admit is seriously engaged with itself as a precocious perennial, often referred to in poetry as the outlaw.
Writing exists for me as a kind of hide out, I am told. And yet for me its exploratory sub grub — does not discount magic carpet, martyr and halo, dawnings of the dead, feelies that are twisty and awful but also -- finding beauty there, contrary and bright.
I push language to points that treat its camouflage like dough, stories are baked in it, seemingly pent on an overripened sensitivity to language, and that is what makes it what it is, what is most central to it --

Ah, pushing the old linear in and out to see what happens. I like to do it too. Threading a noodle? Your website is a diamond noodle mine for sure. The doodles and the noodles bleed together sometimes huh? It’s fun trying to write like you using Dusty ways with words and you are funny! I do not see you hiding away in linguistic space at all. You said before it’s hide and seek so I seek.
