You are the only one before whom I am not ashamed of my silences.

[infinitesofnought]

I believe that Gauguin thought that the artist must look for symbol, for myth, must enlarge the things of life to the magnitude of myth, whereas van Gogh thought that one must know how to deduce myth from the most ordinary things of life. In which I think he was bloody well right. For reality is frighteningly superior to all fiction, all fable, all divinity, all surreality.

– Antonin Artaud, "Van Gogh, the Man Suicided by Society"

All true feeling is in reality untranslatable. To express it is to betray it. But to translate it is to dissimulate it.

EROS OBJECT

Kiss me with graces, and glances, and gay arrangements.

I hole up in my relief for you. For you i remove just my sex, and become it-- betraying my hands, my eyes, i become your compulsion.

I stretch the small opening of myself like a hide to your metal bed with freezing wire, lillylike it sheds new, new, new, dew with leopard like confessions and poppy-patterned delights.

You and I are face to face yet you recognize I am without expression, teeth, ears.

When you finish I do not regain myself, my arms- no- I am waiting in that state for your skin again, strung tight and single watching your body like a hawk. Meanwhile, that shape that is muscling into a beg is my body, begging is all of my adoration for us two at once.  All of me is located at the treacherous split of my thighs, i swallow you up in a soaring heat, whistling up your spine, nuzzling into nothing.

As soon as I entirely become an object, I excel and surpass myself. I double into the choking yo-yo, the kinetic pistol. Then again, the hand holding the pistol, again- the darting eyes steadying the hand, again- the spared blood. In your hands I feel like a toy, but in the backside of our joy is my sunken and concealed ammunition, the fluid of my drive. I bring you inside out, I raise your heart, your breath.

I gain freedom when this farce of me is still, and cut and spread on a bed of fallacies. This strange organ I devolve into, is one that is inside and out, for even when I am passive, even in my degradation, i am angelic in complexity, and just as unfathomably beautiful, because in me is the hidden source of your completion, idle.

These secrets do not derive from an interior place or are corporeal through flemish words. Violence will not dispell the sacred bond of my unknown capacity into the hands of blind lust. For you to even bring my inside out, what once was not seen that is then exposed, you will not have me then, for that unknown piece will jump to each place you cannot reach until it is your very self you must disembowel. Even then. I surpass every object, finding myself in the atomic ransack of our parts, finding my trace in the debris of immanence interrupted. sitting like a seed in your chemical memory, your ejaculation is mine.

But I am just a hole.

“There are no ghosts in Van Gogh's painting, no visions, no hallucinations. It is the torrid truth of the sun at two o'clock in the afternoon.”

If the essential theater is like the plague, it is not because it is contagious, but because like the plague it is a revelation, the bringing forth, the exteriorization of a depth of latent cruelty by means of which all the perverse possibilities of the mind, whether of an individual or a people, are localized.
