I'm Thinkin Just a Little Bit

YouTube Doubler


Naillinois,
Let me start off the evening with not even a hello or fuck but with traditional Filipino dancing called Tinikling. You know what to do next--go on and mute that with some Lykke Li over it. As announced by Data Savers all my p.o.e.m.s are gone straight to Blake's heaven. I sat stoned for an hour watching data recovery videos that made so much sense I had to laugh; plucking and screwing the head with rubber gloves like a 21st century surgeon salvaging the heart of all these poems free floating in 1s and 0s. OMG. do you think our poems are nothing but numbers no matter how hard we try to fight it? I thought i could do this as a side job--start a business salvaging data-poems for reckless poets. Can you imagine you and me rocking white goggles in pink lab coats with bikinis underneath data saving for a daytime job in some run down shack with a Nail Hearts Clip sign sparkling in the tropical hum of Christmas lights on the Philippine island of Palawan? Because I can.

Spring has arrived. God, the weatherman on CNN or Bertolt Brecht seems to have shut the hard cold doors of winter as of today when my heart skipped on out of my chest and through the phone-call with California who announces a piece of the spindle slid and punctured the disk for godamm good. The white male voice had a moment of silence with me and then i hung up. Yesterday an Adobe woman in Manila was giving instruction on how to get this flash started. I knew she was Filipina right away and asked where she was located. Towards the end of the 40 minute skype call I wanted to say "omg. if I visit Manila anytime soon, can i come stay with you?" If it could be that easy, just like that--make friends with someone across the world through technical difficulties while they understand your retarded frustrations in not knowing where you put the serial number to get this flashy reality started.

Jesus,
Smooth Clip Moves
