Studio8 - Uniting the Arts

look forward angel
not back
you are searching for icons
voices from the past
scholarly wisdom
erudition
head in a book
eyes of papyrus
they're dead and gone
they're dead and gone
lost in the blizzard
footprints filling
you can't go home again

looking backward looking forward
looking both ways before I cross the street
looking at you looking at me

searching for icons
a holy grail
a heart of gold
a cinnamon girl

I read only good books

searching for a cure for the disease called man.

head up my ass
I can't read in the dark

you tripped my trigger with that one
you wrote my life
twelve years of college no degree
I am the eternal sophomore
with the Faust Syndrome
and a flair for the obvious

I said goodbye to Husserl last year.

That was my Waterloo.

Very liberating walking away from that conceit of mine. But I did pick up a few crumbs that have brought me satisfaction from time to time

"I know the location of every crumb of happiness that has fallen through the cracks" yabyum

did I mention I liked the poem a lot?

what's husserl? i'd google, but i don't mind confessing my ignorance to the man with a period in his name - now that's class!

mingo had a nice thread called googlebot. He deleted it for what ever reason. I am not one to judge considering the number of times I have deleted my artlog. The idea never occurred to me till westie deleted everything off hers a couple of times. What ever happened to her? Maybe I should have kissed her frog. She wrote such beautiful charming whimsy. I still miss her.

I don't want to Google you a reply.

I am looking through my deleted posts for everything i got on Edmond Husserl that bad old man who the *azi's arrested when he was in his eighties because he was considered a threat to the 1000 year Reich.

He was mentor to Heidegger who denounced for being a Jew got him removed from the the university. Heidegger not to digress but he [Heidegger] was a piece of work. He and his main squeeze Hannah Arendt

Searching my hard drive for deletions and what I have wrote on Husserl in my own words.

I am counting you Constantine. Give me your best shot. Always. Please.
You are one of my heroes here like Doreen. When she has time to read or comment on one of my myriad ramblings she always not afraid to see the emperor with no clothes on and ask the questions that make me try a little bit harder.



I do not want to give her any invidious honors but I wrote once that I feel her always reading over my shoulder although I know she don't have the time to read all my shit, Even so I feel her there.
She got more class in her little finger than those litkicks chicks got in their whole bodies.

That is why the lady is a tramp.

This may take awhile but I will return with Husserl in my own words.

But it might take time
I got so many frigging hard drives



spontaneous gibberish
take two aspirin and wait for me to check it for typos and what nots

oddly enough, a poet from baltimore - dave eberhardt - mentioned husserl in a reply to one of my poems yesterday. you'd like dave - he was one of the catonsville nine. a man of principles and a good poet. i look forward to your writing on husserl. i read a wiki entry on him

yes, i miss westcoast, too. don't knock yourself out on husserl - i'm interested, but those hard drives look like work. i don't like making people work. i was a foreman a couple of times but it went against my marxist principles and my fear of responsibility.

On a sidenote to wicki

I spent hundreds of hours tracking down 911 conspiracy sites. A useful tool.

Nothing to do with Husserl and wiki.

I imagine most of the sites you find on Husserl will be dot edu. Nothing controversial about academia I am sure.

Note to myself RE> Husserl
find these
I have wrote a couple of times about watching Husserl's TV through the one piece windshield of one of those two story Cherry Picker Peterbilts. The two fold continuum of my field of visual sensation. The two fold continuous multiplicity

I picked the book up in Morro Bay California in 1976, and put it down in Schertz Texas in 2008.



Wore that picture off the cover the words too after a million miles of trucking and hard travelling.

Do you recognize that snake with feathers rolling down the rood?

Catonsville nine I only remember Daniel Berrigan, But any friend of his and yours must be a friend of mine.


Baltimore my home town, wanted to sail those clipper ships before I was eight years old. That is before I knew they carried slaves to the new world.

I missed your edit. Or maybe you did not edit and I just missed it. Don't worry about me working too hard.

Speaking of hard work and foreman...another digression

You ever work with one of those foreman on an asphalt paving road crew.. I don't know where they find those guys. Retired marine cor drill instructors,

and our refrain was

"It ain't my fault boss it's assfault."

I don't know anything about Marx but

Eugene V. Debs was a childhood hero of mine..

I have no desire to rise from the masses, I only wish to rise with them

quote from geezer memory I will have to google that.

I take responsibility for myself. My words and actions. But not my thoughts, they are fed to me by death lizards from outer space who want me to change my chromosomes.

debs was a good man - one of my heroes too, along with clarence darrow. the assphault reminds me of lord of the flies. piggy was complaining about his asthma and ralph said - sucks to your assmar!

Darrow inspired me to go to law school for two weeks. I have never been so bored in my life.

You ever see the movie Compulsion?

Compulsion was the title of a fictionalized account of the Leopold and Loeb trial , written in 1956 by Meyer Levin. The story concerns two wealthy Chicago teenagers, Judd Steiner and Artie Straus, who kidnap and murder a young boy, become suspects because of glasses found with the boy's body, confess, and are defended by the brilliant lawyer, Jonathan Wilk.

Compulsion contains many other parallels to the real Leopold and Loeb story, including Steiner's (Leopold's) obsession with the philosophy of Nietzsche, the theft by the boys of a typewriter used to type the ransom note, the inadvertent destruction of the boys' alibi by the Steiner family chauffeur, and the use of verbatim passages from Darrow's trial summation.

RE: "and the use of verbatim passages from Darrow's trial "
The link below is from a website called American Rhetoric, the top 100 speaches it is Darrow's summation.

Clarence Darrow, A Plea for Mercy

http://www.americanrhetoric.com/speeche ... rmercy.htm

I was very interested in that trial and the movie. Of course it all happened a long time before I was born. Before I ever tripped and read Nietzsche too.

Not to swamp you with info this is an interesting site too.

http://www.law.umkc.edu/faculty/project ... O_SUMD.HTM

That trial fascinated me. We have come so far since Loeb and Leopold. I wonder if the Columbine killers read Neitzsche too...

Not a pop quiz. Just wondering. I might Google that.

i saw it a few times. pretty good depiction. i've read all of darrow's cases. he was the attorney for the railroads debs called a strike on. darrow quit his job to defend debs!
