strand hebdo hors de sérieXXtra

without comments

well, i’ve got a couple of st.george’s crosses (see th union jack) or what
i hope are acceptable faccsimiles put up in duct tape on th picture windows
facing th ocean. i’d like to think they may keep any breaking glass from
throwing flying shards, but i guess they’re mostly there to propitiate la
benevolencia et faveur de georges qui nous approche a grand vitesse- for a
hurricane.
have had some interesting feedback on my last posting- think i was a little
cryptic about what was going on in that one, i may redo & resend…for all
friends & fans of more structured form, some of my usual jotted
observations have evolved into a sonnet over th last three- four weeks…
close to three-thirty right now & i’ve disregarded all advice to leave th
beach house. hope it doesn’t prove a foolishly reckless course of action.
got some territorial issues i’m acting out here, certainly, but it felt
really important to take a stand as a caretaker & see if i can handle th
risk in a responsible way…got a two hour battery in this baby, so as long
as phone lines hold, i can post this & maybe a followup in tomorrow’s
aftermath…over & out for now- 1540h-d-(8{>

kfeen13/am strand behind th 8ball:prozess

without comments

1- here is th moonless midweek fear wd shut me up, down (5?bare strip of road growing car dealerships for supper)
2- th liquor whisper, mumbling to itself
4- to weed-whacker wake-up posse razing fragile saplings 3- a maze of daydream bulletins finds me home abuzz 7-(roy haynes snap crackles his way out of boston to my joy)
6- turn into thelonious joint, cravings washd out & sunk

…morning after, ocean swollen oily w/ th tide- grey, airless quiet takes its own sweet noon to blow clouds’ thread no less than bare & gust into th glare in one fell rasp…
where is theodore roethke when i need him? in his books i guess…
life is good: i’ll be out of bed by seven-thirty my third straight day
tomorrow.
pello (peyo?), newly married to my cousin charo, has decided he can spare
some of
th krew he has working on my dad’s building in town (leaky roof, cranky
tenants)
to do some long overdue work on th beach house: grounds these first couple
of days,
roofwork & paint into next week…can he help me w/ my studio bungalow
plans???
die deutscher don’t arrive until 21.dezember. i’d love to have th floor &
part of
th walls up before these three months are up. hellllp! in yr hands…d-(8{>

hebdo am strand/lucky7: apologies&quotes

without comments

…seems i’m wrong, wrong, wrong in some lightly tossd judgements on
history, art & epistemology,
& apologies are due to teresa-
kitty mrosovsky brings up th following in th introduction to her
own translation of ‘th temptation of st antony’ by gustave flaubert:
‘jean bruneau argues that flaubert cd’ve owed a direct debt to hegel & quotes a key phrase of th ‘aesthetics’:
‘…far from mere appearances being purely illusory, th forms of art comprise more reality (wirklichkeit, ja?) & truth (wahrheit, nicht war?) than th phenomenal existences of th real(!?) world. th world of art is truer than that of nature & history.’
* so in hegel already we seem to have art posited as a form of knowledge
comparable to
science & philosophy itself??
ms. mrosovsky also touches on our earlier topic-
‘…th strands of 19th c. erotica as unpickd by literary critics…seem to me monotously predictable. flaubert was not alone in imagining…an exotic woman who wd combine th frank availability of th whore w/ a kind of sensuous transcendence…[flaubert] sees in th idea of prostitution ’so complex a point of intersection- lust, bitterness, nullity of human relations, muscular frenzy & ringing of gold- that looking to th bottom of it makes one dizzy, & what a lot one learns there!’
she also brings something up that pushes self-questioning buttons in me-’…nietzsche raisd th question of th corrupting effect of th ascetic ideal on artistic creativity…’-no bibliographic reference, no elaboration…& i wonder, has my artistic creativity bn corrupted by ‘th ascetic ideal’ & if so, how??
(…where do i search for héctor huyke’s possible email @ colegio d
mayagüez? it seems long
overdue he shd get draggd by th short & curlies into this little
kaffeeklatsch/sowing circle…!)
