Bad Ghost / Black Magic:
"delenda est Carthago..." said Cato.
Green Hornet Smiled.

(of marbled veneer, linoleum, starts, finishes, and the demise of
objects, a non-specific absolutism.)

Cadaver...@Kriegspiele.com: (Nothing, It, What Happened, History,
etc.)

1. Finishing a long, grueling, dangerous engineering project.
2. Completing a great painting or symphony.
3. Leaving the theater after a cultural event, say, a kabuki
performance.
4. "Winning" an argument with one's spouse.

//Now it goes right down to how the birds form their mucous.
//And there is a curious friction between Clausewitz and Scharnhorst,
//chance and friction.
//Also, when speaking of Art, Science or Culture of a certain level, a
certain
//spectacular level, the notion of a phenomenology of the social is most
//exacting for its flexibility
//and inherent objectivity in continuation, though in all candor, all
terms
//are in the process of being debunked,
//or at least reratification.

\\Now then a last gasp, as in a desert, the drowning in dryness, the
\\paradoxical sun finally killing from context
\\and duration, this moment, when the sand-drowner speaks aloud his fey
\\cliche', "Man is insane.."
\\For at that moment, an orchestra would play, and fathers, mothers
would step
\\from their bloody clothes, their own
\\children murdered in piles, their suicide cars crashed into random
\\installations, and perhaps one hundred
\\million naked women would invade the Roman Capital Washington B.C.:
Invade
\\and defecate in the streets.
\\You see, there is no weapon against social nihilism in the service of
\\liberation. 40 million quit working
\\on the same day, and have TOKAGE-sex in the streets spontaneously, as
if in a \\dream, and perhaps it is a juvenile
\\affair, @narchy @rmbands, loud music, the buck-toothed unwashed
revolution
\\of means, mean and as horrible, HAWKWIND, DIRTY COWBOY MOVIES
\\engulfing and professing all enmity of human nature in simul sub cue
taney ous tumult,
\\but meaningless or you countermusic, p.82 BLOOD ELECTRIC
\\and how haggard our effects have become, roses and rainbows painted on
\\panzers.
\\Our only weapon is our insanity. And insanity, well, it cannot be
properly
\\propelled by reason.
\\Yes, as silly as that.. but propel. Problematics work outside the
limits of
\\control. Loopy tautologistics. THIS BROKEN ANCHORMANDRILL..
\\What we see then is a shadow of this ani-mal cage-earth, this zoo-
earth of
\\screaming and angry ravings,
\\the occasional suicide notice, the myth of the deranged in a world of
\\complicated beautiful and useful objects, the banalization of the
serial
\\murderer, the "good cause"// but imagine a social force for !good!
wed to
\\these nihilistic energies of catharsis,
\\imagine these forces as a hallucinogen of social desiring-mind, black-
magic.
