I'm in love with the WORLD'S OLDEST MAN

Every spot is rising
Covered with the hopes
and dreams of a new connection
love dripping, sopping wet,
sopping over the edges

sun kissed hills and royal blue waves
cities filled with young hopeful entrepreneurs
activists and poets, artists and infamous criminals
all waiting to tickle our brains
all the way to bed and back again

i heard you speaking
the warm rush of difficult syllables
falling on unwelcoming ears
except mine—open, loving, expectant

i saw you reaching out
first with the smallest gesture,
smiles, and manly deeds
stimulating unwanting thighs
except mine—hoping, yielding to your touch

Landscapes rolling before us
The most beautiful in the world
moments of sheer mirth dripping from our supple minds
Fully felt, deeply dreamed and wanted and yearned and cried and screamed and frustrated with life, and hopeless, and compassioned for

Moku lua Me.

I'm Acting

I'm acting like small town
in the biggest little small town
in the scope of hope
inspired
retired
I'm tired
of working for expired
old men
then ten
more teens
directing the world
unseen
the machine
touching my va-geen
letting you in
just to let you out
drought
no rain it's a problem
no water
can't drink
won't think
my brain
is a solid hole
sink
then drown
get a gasp
come to surface

Allowed Time At The Dinner Table

Less people clap because they have a smartphone in their hands

Rose Marie Pangborn

Kicked in the head with the glib hateful things you can say

Flicker Flit Glow

touch tongues, mind fuck, tingling electricity, warm rolling earthquakes on a deeply swelling sea, soft slobbering sensuality bulging eyeballs and smooth, soft skin rolling weight laying meaningfully on the breast tweaked nipples and gently straining muscles flexing in harmony

Drug of Silence

He used his penis to pound morse code messages into my vagina.
I realized too late that I could have saved his life.

Film Notes

The word "image" has two conjoined meanings: an image is an optical pattern, it is also a mental experience "multistable figure"

whatever education our ears undergo in order to perceive reality is sufficient to perceive recorded sound

"saccades"
boveated vision

read images

physiologically

ethnographically

psychologically

-------

semiology
the study of systems of signs


poetry - signifiers/signifieds

the dance between sound and meaning

"A film is difficult to explain because it is easy to understand"

-----

what if you made an object that wasn't necessarily what it appeared to be but treated it as what it appeared to be

circumscribed

the process of intellection

a single frame is not the smallest unit of meaning

a shot contains as much information as we want to read in it
