hiding out…

Hiding out happens. It’s helpful. It’s hopeful. Being able to slip out the back door and be done with it, even if it’s only temporary, is your prerogative. Things grow in hiding. In the womb. In the shell. In the dark rooms. Magic makes itself here.

interface…

I’m new wave, but I’m old school, and my inner child is outward bound. I’m a hot-wired, heat-seeking, warm-hearted cool customer, voice-activated and biodegradable. I interface in my database, and my database is in cyberspace, so I’m interactive, I’m hyperactive and from time to time, I’m radioactive.

words…

For me, language is a freedom. As soon as you have found the words with which to express something, you are no longer incoherent, you are no longer trapped by your own emotions, by your own experiences; you can describe them, you can tell them, you can bring them out of yourself and give them to somebody else. That is an enormously liberating experience….

know you knew…

Have you come over time to think that you know more now than you did when young, know less now than when young, know now there is so much more to know than you knew there was to know when young that it is moot whether you think you knew more then than now or less, or do you now know that you never knew anything at all and never will and only the bluster of youth persuaded you that you did or would?
