Meh

I have taken a very thin slice of your town
No candles on the cake for oligarch on make
Read the headline news. But it's mine now.
I know the constituency members on every level:

Soft sponge or Tarmac and bricks from turkey.
Even my oligarch car key is not free from this mullarkey. The Internet boxes are by Iran and the name above the door is from Pakistan.

MTP brain Reads graffiti wit and blight is no worry when the spuds fail to chit... The drain cover was made in England. Loughborough to be precise.
Where the welders go on Friday night for a platr and free pint at the Bombay spice. My yacht. Your pension. Buy a posh paper and pay some attention.

pity is precarious

pity is precarious  but home is where the heart is
dont explain if you want to tell them why

I note the positions of Terrylined neighbours
or how arbitrary the heart.

stuff that matters changes out of time and outside
the margin. Can you see how tunnelled it is?

a different kind of truth - one that can't be told
in words, to the young, to me, or to the old...

(there it is/ what took us so long)

Sketchbook Entry No 2.

Once upon a time I might....

take some motifs which carry significance; eg, the bride and groom, the files, the fridge, the courts crest, the wig,, the antique wedding dress (photographed) .....  I create silk screens from photos and I then use a selection of imagery to create motifs ... With a mixture of scanning and potato block printing I utilise two 'extremes' technology and also, in a performative sense, mimic the actions - using finger paints and potatoes on the floor - of a 'pre-school' child- (like my father)!? The works are gestural and repetitive and lend themselves beautifully to wrapping paper.... The end.

Sketchbook Entry: Installations of heaters and fridges etc..

there's a room - with a floor, a ceiling and four walls. A door. Maybe it should be cavity wall insulated - to building reg standards. A set of two bar heaters in one corner.. and a set of fridges with their doors open... they are all laid out in some way reminiscent of a great battle (?)... the numbers should be played with so that the relative hot and cold emmissions maintain a temperature which oscillates around wherever the thermostat on the fridges are set so that the motors keep coming on and off..

Variables:

  • number of fridges to heaters
  • cladding and materials used
  • outside temperatures
  • How many people in room
  • Their temperatures and emmissions
  • How often the door opens and closes
That's it.

Or maybe there can be an element of county court files...? maybe

when frost was spectre grey
and winters dregs made desolate
the weakening eye of day

...once I figured out what the future was going to be, I figured I oughtaa stay schtum...

It was like, in a kind of,

double contravention of contrivance

those thin strips of city

places I can think of:
  • Panks (for pumps)
  • jarrolds
  • minty's designer wears
  • monty's arm
schemes:
  • the lanes
  • the triangle
  • the art mob
  • the help
public acts of kindness done blindly?

concrete by marl
glass by time
roof by collaboration
hinges by goldman sachs

this old house.

moribund designer jokes

halibut
all froth
mortally eating months

pale head pewter
trossachs and blarney
belinda
the monkey's uncle
in margaret

that'll show em

outsider in sand

brew her tide man
melody coronet
maladjust hermeneutics
gargantuan tiles
mast.

malaprop pundit
pesky olive
alimony delaware
casket tupper
ware

frettenham musket
mutant tuck
flimsy gargoyle handbag
galoshes menstrual
tender

Public Art: The Family?

Astrakhan
In purple blonde or pewter
Work is love in direct action
The family court and spark

Cockle bay herpes
Raking the sands of time
At lytham St annes 400 licences
Domesday immigrants eight pounds

No right was given
But that it was taken away
Cake decorations, the fridge and the files,
Thin slices of city...

i wear my heart on my sleeve

(:-(

(he sings imaginary songs)

he is playing
he is alone
he is on x box

i am playing
i am alone
i am on lap top

we are close


bedtime for brothermilk

blue jeans and advocat
ovaries corrode

black beans arabica
steppenwolf commode

all these tremendous things
remind me of stew

paying respects

"they were just objects"
somebody said
around the stuff huddle of death

and remembered...


lewis hide and marcel mauss

there's

dignity in poverty
parity in doggerel
diversity in parallel
polarity in diagonal

but

there's no

chastity in personnel
plasticity in Chardonnay
animosity in alimony
sentiment in sentinel

however,

there might be

calligraphy in graffiti
humanity in Tahiti
disparity in allegory
and chaff in heat

so.
