"how to act on this data"

the, i exist, you can’t really
take credit for photographing
somebody else’s art, the dsh
story, we are com, btsomt,
what’s yer technique, scribe
up, all the artist’s apostrophes,
the end run, waterfall with
pipeline, how bright is the
bright, who can you call when
you have nobody to call?
how about a bail bondsman,
non-anti-non, prefer the open
web, pot, you are perfectly
capable of representing
yourself, how is one to love,
sunnyside to anderson,
gignere, natalis, how to act
on this data, mugl, the hours
we wish to discard, the hours
are a lie, the hours we
wish to hang on to, grudge
judge, one needs correction,
nothing is non-billable,
ugliness is in the eye of
the beholder, crime is in
the eye of the beholder,
sometimes you just gotta
let it pass, vigourous
advocate, lava flow,

"laughter signifies communication"

boreal traffic, aaron with
the double a’s, how’d ya know,
speech ache, i think i will
change my name to, nod to be
confused with, variant paper,
the paper is scored, the health
of the bird reflected in the
song, text for future moments,
love it was, the period, we all
go the way of toner, laughter
signifies communication,
please destroy this, put it
down on the bottom and
crush it, two tiny bits of
nothing, shitty little odds
and ends like this, it fell
off anyway, double umlaut
object, what can you say
about chaos, my heart goes
out to gold, back in the
good old days when i was
writing this, this paper
has been manhandled,
strange friends from a
million miles away,
artistic operators, whatever
trevor, we are cramped for
weight, was is, buddaboom!,

"cyburbia"

wind up pissing in a cup, rundle
fly, live on the sunny side,
beer gets nothing done,
musical hats, the song of
the white-throated sparrow,
the dance of despond, this
text has been tampered with,
one wants to be written thru,
before it is completely
deteriorated, the outlaster,
your mail is not getting thru
to, when all else fails: write!,
poetry is a guilty pleasure,
it was a simple miscommunication,
cluttertongue, db stands for
dead body, mossfringed, the
relevator, you didn’t send
me book one, start pumping
out real books, poets are
like dunns, sooner or later
they track you down,

"this is a list of more or less interesting phrases andor words"

take possession of the street,
text is okay if you forget what
you were going to say, the
process of reading the text,
this is not the way this text is
meant to be, this is not where
this text is supposed to be, do
we have no machines, if you
make another copy you’ll have
to change the name, local
window, from artist to artist
via, how does one cease hoping,
it’s refreshing to look at the
thing upside-down, oh the house
is still there no doubt, now i
am not being me, give them
one more shot and then retire
them, paper dependant, the
paper with the bluish tinge
versus the paper with the
pinkish tinge, local artist,
oh i didn’t think it was
going to come out this way,
next happens death, knock hips,
this is a list of more or
less interesting phrases andor
words, up pah, love is live is
live is life is love is, stencil:
graffiti removal, from the
herbarium to the librarium,

"refer madness"

reciprocal harem, inconsequential
too, intellectual conversation
twenty-five cents, green cement,
om a momant, thirty-five
fluxus bucks, a representation
of a fan, naked fly, in a world
made up of letters, the fish
are not free from the chains of
the seaway, the rusty staples
department, the tiny throbbing
creature in her hand, riding
the iron, the hat axe, still to
be dug out, you are a stupid
fuck, just an envelope with no
markings on it, everything that
refers to you, this still need,
text replica, what was the
subject again, why this paper
is still blank, typewriter out
on the balcony, can we get any
worse paper, scan it post it
kiss it goodbye, give your head
to a good cause, you are still
you over there aren’t you,
let’s get this text out of
our face shall we, count
all the blank paper, judge
by the density of the
paper, good old stefano,

"meaningless microfragments"

then don’t write, joyless concrete,
oman, customized van, spicer
draft beer, autokinaton, art hat
axis, milyus parasiticus, googler,
symphysis, the phone just rang a
tiny bit, bog-worshipping, namo,
extravasation, if it’s not a
poem then what is it, painitng,
paint the penny black, the
great white hunter, while in a
trance was able to read unopened
letters, fratire, ecopod, dutch
wife, ginger ginger ginger,
grmt cnnm rsn icin, wep, all the
interior is gone, five characters
stuck united, that’s one stink i
wouldn’t mind smelling,
meaningless microfragments,
you made your bed and now
you have to burn in it, bezirk,
burn this please, nere a penny,
the maulstick, have children
except, santa monica
boulevard, burn this please,
nonlinear discontinuous
collage-like an assemblage,
double umlaut object,
nineteen fucking words, a
whole whack of fucking
words, poor ole stefano,

"get this text out of my face"

local positioning system,
tamperered, art gets special
treatment, the new one is worse
than the old one, get this text
out of my face, nevep, who is
in control of this text, this
copy has been tampered with,
it’s the conveyance of the idea
that counts, wind up pissing
into the wind, the date has
nothing to do with the time of
the text, writing poems about
sex is like, at gc, start a new
series, work the text forward,
one is writing thru one, one
is tipping one’s hand, wind
up pissing in the sink, one
has no access to the net, one
was hoping, no matter how long
one hangs on, give up fear,
past an orange, intrication,
kyphosis, hack editor
conspired, editorial committee
having, throw the letter
thru the window,

"keep your poetry to yourself"

every artist that is the case,
ready set contact, the thing itself
is not the self, somebody stole the
crime prevention brochure, rcd,
being downtown edmonton, can
we get the complete picture
please, original replica, hopeful
your eye, note toner splatter,
my poetry comes first, i am uh,
coan, economic psychology,
pour the building into the
valley, a fold is not the end
of the world, too many bells,
never quite actually hits it,
ivrey, missing all the references,
no yes, keep your poetry to
yourself, one loves blank,
this writer is a hack, publish
only for one reason, so bright
it blinds the reader, nsa,
why is beauty considered bad,
a stark beautiful arrange,
it’s not real skin, the sort of
literature we keep going back
to, oh sure it could easily
be replicated, my work, paper
penguin, better trance late
than never, however it gets
there it gets there,

dust mites? what dust mites?,
hope is the heart, rudence,
this is what iambic, nevereven,
leave the poem and act, the
dust lies, a live-alogue,
one-ify it or two-ify it, close
clothes, alarmclock shampoo,
mounting the piroghi,
juxtapope, one is extending,
free rubble, one big mint,
think what you see, you
can’t get off the grid
anymore, freedom? fuck
freedom: we just want more
money, rubble: twenty-five

"the gelatin of love"

typing is for copying, unit

me out, the energy of lunatics, d, go
down into that dark hole, and bring
up some more gold, pure peru, you
know what this thing is, poke around

dusty, repetition allows you to see,
the delicate way the paint runs

the energy of geniuses, the living

committed to insanity, we did ew,
the network failed, in up to the
neck, psychedelic textual dream,

"early computer art" & "gnifies"

the white stripes, slap the pizza on
the scanner, is the grot part of the
art, nomadic artist, if you copy it
you will remember it better, the
way the hand moves, trog thot,
when it was still east germany, what
are you in the business of, still
gumming, jurassic pair, tea real,
called up a comment, the frolic,
rise up out of your box, early
computer art, simple enough
beauty, brain cell art strike,
lay your hands on the art, a sign
of silence, open to interpret, rem
wen, dev uni, art touch, fal, alw,



living plants of the world, it
gnifies something, a minute of
silence for your future death,
you were hoping not to have to die,
who’s this one, get up on stage
spill your blood, can you talk the
code, what’s missing from this
text, kmr, gbble, split yourself
in two, there’s more missing than
that, we only just begun, urine
camels, pick up a five-hundred
box, humanly huge, thanks for
destroying me, now that death
is gone, hey i like your shit,

"jesus loves you but, satan loves you beddah!"

make a note for your memory, melting
thru time, we’ve had this lost thing
for years, particle influence, the
missing portion tingles the memory,
one side for the top one side for
the bottom, not afraid to lose the
odd word, we once was alive, every-
thing turns to grey, are you still
here, we are performing from the gut,
chromography lab, oh cet echo, what
the frame held, the owner of the
artwork is the artist, a copy is
almost as good no better, nothing
is ever really full, are all
these mailartists still active,
and on it goes, chipback, stillflux,



directing nothing, the thing with
the noses, a sense of aboding, satan
loves you, you got to live in the
nice house one day only, sit before
your eyes, long horn hat rack, we
must have known the end was near,
feel the texture of the moment,
feel your way back to life, being
yourself is not enough, protect
etc rot, one day you style yourself
this the next that, your happyest days,
driving yourself down, five
million loves, d is for dayglo,
somebody else’s nutty idea, act
on this text, fasson, memberize,

"what if our nows don't coincide" & "enternet"

time travelling thru paper, the being
we were being then, here take a look
at this writing, what if our nows
don’t coincide, get those neurons
firing, cluster fuck bomb, seems
to mean nothing now, the day we
found the teasel, we never lived
on moss street, give it an arbitrary
name, when we were calling ourselves
voodoo chapeau, true love blank,
depending on how it was folded
the first line would be, total
law breaker, render useless self,
too late buddy, yes this is the
one, total love dominates,
arbitrary eye, tiny little bug,


as close as we will ever get to the
original, enternet, no longer ongoing
still, beautiful little things we held
for but a moment, lord only knows
what would become of them,
never not doing art, where it started
out where it ended up and on, and then
nobody wanted to play, still uncanny,
be careful you don’t see something bad,
kneejerkoff, hat of nails, do you
consider yourself a victim or, we
have a run of these, bright
purple, the little names of mailart,
all the beauty fading away, the
original word could be anywhere,
calling all active, at play and in,

"do you want to save the changes to your brain" & "artgang"

now we thot this was lost, albert
hoffman one hundred, the old single-
copy business model, postage self,
do you want to save the changes to
your brain, if you need help please
call, we only move for money, did
we ever send you anything, the old
kickers, i was so thinking of you,
the price of gas has become still,
six six six criminal, pem, who or
what was benjamin myles, what day
did we start, the concrete is still
falling, miz bush, augustus boal,
what were we mailing that day,
the correct method of using,
dipping down close to death,



imagine yourself back in your happy
moment, make a copy of the gold, is
the source still there, is the gusher
still gushing, visual schizophrenia,
which direction is the flow flowing,
peep your eyes closed, art works for
me, artgang, so you can see the fix,
now is the path to joy, hope this is
not too frisky, curious to know the
history of this penny, what’s your
schtick, to gather mushrooms,
trace the chaotic flux, everyone
who is still in the picture, anyflow,
the fate of the mailartist, are you
saying or are you quoting, immortal
addnpass, brain-shaped mushroom cloud,

"true love prosthesis" & "trace chaos tracks"

the police are guilty, trials
lawyers blues, the history of
your face, imagine more peace,
absorb the particle before it’s
too lake, the provision of happy,
random explosion, true love
prosthesis, we knew it said
artmobite, what was it like to
be happy, this is quite the text,
looks rather innocuous on the
outside, never really been in a
pub, the font you choose in,
got off scot free, little error
led to downfall, giant letters,



oh now we have another black mark
against ourselves, the best we can say
for art, how were we doing the work we
were doing, obscure what needs obscure,
all these letters gone, the art
workers working the art, particles
of this reality, compare with see
slash double you, black luck,
temp error, ten times ten equals
fifty, how are we raying, all the
artists are long gone, reality
match, trace chaos tracks, arts
still present, also gnawn as,
worm in mind, never retain,
fond memory, causes nothing,
ten by, value-less beauty,

"bull pizzle" & "one-a dese daze"

the silicon goes blank, independent
of july, sal bia cor, frags of reality,
one two one, when you were here and i
was there, this one did come back,
cow pizzle, seeing thru to what you
are seeing, you in all your glory,
xljt, work so that you, paralyzed by
reality, you’re writing on it,
build copy tower, marching towards
rest, put me in the box, the same flap
of flesh, this one really did go
for a ride, pass up joy, why the
damage, who would that be, our
drinking days are over, habit
ate, guilt by association, time word,



get unslack, keep my mail away from
me, one-a dese daze, drop everything
inside your self, you would think
to forward, you are tracked,
higher than empty communication,
concrete mail, we thot we were
guilty but, intestinal paralysis,
ripe and ready to copy, it’s fading
every moment, melissa and allan,
it matters to know what day it
is, days of hate, everybody is doing
something productive exept, you
come in the door shooting, now
your function is, when you were
near, are you here, who was there
when, make a copy with the lid open,

Friday, May 01, 2009

"it's all the same text"

let your identity go, this is post-
disaster, now we really are insane,
don’t you even want to see, the one-
hundred-and-twenty-sixth and final,
your last move before you died,
going along insanely, my grinning
death’shead, we fell back into our
old rut, the last thing we did,
who is performing your function
now, each one of these little straws
lead to the collapse, go out and sit
in the sun at minus thirty, your
happy last moment, you can’t
write your own, cheif chief,


a single beer, five copies period,
reality is there for you to change,
triple ex nothingness, it’s all the
same text, this is registration
work, makes for a heavy piece of
paper, one for each of the five
people who like to read my writing,
they want to put their logo on your
work, marching towards march,
why do we go around and around,
publishing bang bang, logo language,
fake fade, double up the amount
of production, let’s go bowling
instead of this, the thickness,

"reality-supply construct" & "when the paint is flying"

i am fly, but fen larks, stow hooking
it, splunkishly, random ident,
electric ant, blank audio input,
blank unpunched tape, acksetron,
the holy bowel, a captain kirk,
reality-supply construct, the
reality tape, snailishly
unwinds, sociologism, zakat
tithe, metics, senecide, minim,
temporal castes, seed-miller ant,
repletes ants, honeypot ants,
metapleural glands,



your claim to fame is that photo
you took, stilling touch, no art is
too bad, van floating, rss riddle,
the tension got to the breaking
point, ain’t got no light to shed,
yes one did break, pass up the op,
how will you weather the coming
storm, constant grinding, use it
before you lose it mister no more
slogans, eye never wore hats,
olympic writing, feel the grit,
neah bay head, art is fool’s gold,
nothing subversive about mail,
walking antique, sep, when the
paint is flying, on the web anyway,
