since i have no thesis to write or thesis related books to read i'm going to try for two books a week for the rest of my time in boulder...can't wait to dig into recreational reading...
i think i'll go to the bar for happy hour and have a whiskey in celebration of thesis...Francois you wanna meet there, say around 5:00?
...currently listening to Miles Davis Blue Miles...eck...enough with the jazz already, i HATE that i'm obsessive compulsive...i'm on order by "album"...next is "genre" then i've hit for the cycle...
Hey John, can you make a stencil of my face and the words "Embodied Poet" underneath it and spray paint it on like 1000 phone poles thanks
ReplyDeleteMy disembodied voice will be there.
ReplyDeletealready did it...
ReplyDeletefunny, the dance performance this week (with my poem) is called "embodied poetics"...
my forehead is grossing me out right now...i'm not sure why but my pores are huge...i think pollen may be getting stuck in them...
that's gross john. get biore strips.
ReplyDeleteembodied poetics is much more interesting than disembodied poetics.
stencil graffiti is the best. have you ever looked at how much awesome stencil stuff there is on flikr?
Enforcing 2 books/wk is not exactly "recreational" reading anymore than your music listening program is "enjoyable."
ReplyDeleteI just finished my 93rd straight Hugh Kenner essay.
I've said it before, I'll say it again:
I
Hate
Fun
well, you're right...i'm not exactly a recreational reader...all my books have an "order" like the music...ordered by genre...journal/ poetry books/ prose books/ comic books/ books by friends/ magazines etc...BUT, i'm a pretty prolific reader...two books a week ain't no thang...so, we'll try for two but aim for 4 books a week...and that includes all genres...
ReplyDeletemy pores! my poor godamned pores! pollen stuck in my poor godamned pores!
