I believe that the happiness enjoyed in childhood and the love of the good object that enriches personality are the foundation of the ability to enjoy and sublimate. The first happy relationship with the mother mitigates hatred and distress. Melanie Klein, Envy and Gratitude, 1957

“Trying to see you
my eyes grow
confused
it is not your face
they are seeking
fingering through your spaces
like a hungry child
even now
I do not want
to make a poem
I want to make you
more and less
a part
from myself”
Audre Lorde

«We call something big small, something small big, the black white and the white black; shadows light and light shadows; the bright dull and the dull bright. Thus names and terms are devoid of content and meaning. It is worse than at the time of the Tower of Babel. Then, only tongues were confused and one man could not understand another, for each had different names for the same things. Now we all speak the same but false language.» Joseph Roth.

“There is no document of civilization which is not at the same time a document of barbarism. And just as such a document is not free of barbarism, barbarism taints also the manner in which it was transmitted from one owner to another. ” Walter Benjamin

We alone can devalue gold
by not caring
if it falls or rises
in the marketplace.
wherever there is gold
there is a chain, you know,
and if your chain
is gold
so much the worse
for you.
Feathers, shells
and sea-shaped stones
are all as rare.
This could be our revolution:
to love what is plentiful
as much as
what’s scarce.

“Alone I cannot lift my voice in song—Then you come near and sing with me. Our prayers fuse, and a new voice soars. Our bond is beyond voice and voice. Our bond is one of spirit and spirit.”

I would like to geometrize the visible
See a willingness in the world of matter
Everything to the gaze exposed as a surface on a volume
It amalgamates tight densities
Behind the coloured screens
A new type of boredom is created
All grey on lights everywhere you can’t see
Begotten worlds that generations have to dig
Dig deep enough to build a sandcastle
What to cling to, before riding into a narrow bridge
Stay with me

Knott’s bowl 2022
“This dish was served to Mr Knott, cold, in a bowl, at twelve o’clock noon sharp and at seven p.m. exactly, all the year round.
That is to say that Watt carried in the bowl, full, to the dining-room at those hours, and left it on the table. An hour later he went back and took it away, in whatever state Mr Knott had left it. If the bowl still contained food, then Watt transferred this food to the dog’s dish. But if it was empty, then Watt washed it up, in readiness for the next meal.
So Watt never saw Mr Knott at mealtime. For Mr Knott was never punctual, at his meals. But he was seldom later than twenty minutes, or half an hour. And whether he emptied the bowl, or did not, it never took him more than five minutes to do so, or seven minutes at the outside. So that Mr Knott was never in the dining-room when Watt brought in the bowl, and he was never there either when Watt went back, to take the bowl away. So Watt never saw Mr Knott, never never saw Mr Knott, at mealtime.”
SAMUEL BECKETT: Watt
