i discovered if you have magnetic clip-on sunglasses & carry them in your shirt pocket next to a magnetic-card hotel roomkey, the key will stop working after a while.

Musical anonymity.

"When they saw the music on the day before, the musicians were irate. One asked in rehearsal, 'Excuse me, Mr Walton, has a clarinet player ever done you an injury?' " --Richard Greene, Edith Sitwell: Avant-Garde Poet, English Genius (2011)

Dark Side of the Rainbow.

"Spiral, cone, and pentagon." --Edwin Muir

What if no religion used words? Imagine that they could impart, & urge to impart, certain rituals, behaviors & avoidances, & even the mental states appropriate to these, without the intermediary of language. There would be no question of faith, & none of truth. --And that is how i see them all. The immense mass of verbiage their adherents have created & continue to create, is to me only so much information pollution. Sometimes it is good poetry (oftener bad): that part is worth keeping. As poetry.

were we wise,
and the skies
thick with flies
had not fenced us

nano-ablative


(by James Dyson on photozo dot com)

     "Hot Air

So soft my pleasure came
Upon a dream,
Iced fire and frosted flame

It was, too brief for blame.
Yet sharp to seem
So soft. My pleasure came

And went--that was its shame,
Not that, supreme,
Iced fire and frosted flame,

It bore the ancient name
Harsh hearts blaspheme.
So soft my pleasure, came

A wind and woke me tame
To that regime
Iced fire and frosted flame

Had burnt to a black frame
Before their steam.
So soft, my pleasure, came
Iced fire and frosted flame."

Vassar Miller, 1963
