The Eternal gift
This City of chemicals, burnt orange sky's a gas
blooming, rising from the failing light of eve.
Dying day's colors no God would create
except that of man.
He drives oblivious, smiling window down
breeze fills asthmatic lungs, cigarette between
yellow teeth burning into lazy gray...
And so what?
Down he goes...
Even to create that which is destruction
becomes sacred Kali smiling, slashing
drinking up red blood, wine, vinegar and piss.
Crowned head - savaged Ass
Shining - rotting - beholding...
Wonderment, beauty foul taste retribution
Welcome- God's eternal gift to man!
- John Valentine 2002

"I used to think she was quite
intelligent in my stupidity. The reason I did was because she knew quite
a lot about the theater and plays and literature and all that stuff. If
somebody knows quite a lot about those things, it takes you quite a while
to find out whether they're really stupid or not." - J. D. Salinger,
Catcher in the Rye
