WHITTLING AT THE COALESCENT DROPS OF MEMORY

Polly Steele's "FOUR LETTERS OF LOVE" and the Danny Strong, IFC Production,  quasi-biopic, " REBEL IN THE RYE "......were short-lived in American Movie Houses.......I watched both Films, as a double-feature, recently......their romantically intellectual content, certainly, displaced some intracranial detritus left by the oily rags of routine film residue that was shunting my choreographically interpolated interstitiality  with the hammering of Marvel Comics Mentalities.. double-billing with Killers of the Cosmos..... Max Bierbaum suggested, in a rather long cinematic dream, that I consult with Zuleika Dobson, prestidigitator  to the Sensitive Neurotics of evanescent  Art World Confidentiality.. ...Don't slip on the ocean-sprayed cliff, Rochester....it's a hard tumble, even into water, from this height......Why is Bertha Mason laughing, even with molten beeswax running down her palms?    Sometimes, this is the 'soft light that breaks from yon window...

THE FOG OF PERFUMED FISH BREATH

Image
the underside of leaves speak in molecules of pure air carrying fragrances of nearby worlds. my widespread nostrils tip down to hold the precious scents, transformed, behind these tunnels to an ancient brain, to thoughts and visions held together with silken threads of dreaming... a great fish, from far within my brain, leaps with clouds of breath, to bring old life to being; before my seeing eyes, the clouds of sweetest smoke forms the firmament.

CLOAKED PACERS, LESS 'WORDS'.....HUMAN ANIMALS, WHILE OFTEN 'MISSING THE POINT, ENTIRELY', DIFFER LITTLE FROM OTHER CREATURES WHEN DEPRIVED, EVEN METAPHORICALLY FROM THEIR VERBIAGE

Quad is a minimalist television play by Samuel Beckett, first broadcast on 8 October 1981, in which four anonymous, robed figures pace the edges and diagonals of a square in synchronized, geometrically precise patterns, their movements illuminated by shifting colored lights and underscored by percussive sounds, creating a wordless exploration of repetition and absence. Written in English but initially produced in German as Quadrat I + II for Süddeutscher Rundfunk in Stuttgart and directed by Beckett himself, the play features performers of similar build and indeterminate sex, dressed in gowns matching their assigned colors—white, yellow, blue, and red—with cowls concealing their faces to emphasize depersonalization.
