I want to peer into the mouth of the universe...call my name into it, and see if it answers me...I want to meet the beast of the abode, the ring master, and conductor. 'Want to meet that which makes all the earth go still, and makes all the birds stop in that feared, and marked place...that drives the rats from the earth, scurries the lizards from their rocks, and drives the deer from the ponds from which they usually drink. I want to stare down into the big black swirling hole...and gaze into it, and observe its gaping audacity, Then stumble back from it for a *reason*. I want to flirt with the ledge, kiss the fork-ed tongue of fire, dance a circle in matches and lighter fluid, and baton twirl with candles...I want to meet that which both utterly compels, and terrifies me........The thing that saw its own reflection in the pond, then ran from it. Lady disaster. The stuff of stories. Mystery, herself. That glorious one, He/She who will make a muttled, confused, chaotic soup of you, when he/she brings it all down. The man behind the curtain. The face behind the veil, the supposedly "horrid" creature. Lester, Lurch, Raoul, Hiraldo, Herrad. Freaks of that nature, Freaks from the same pool that they sip and dwell. The widow, the lady of the lake. The character from any other, major motion picture, song or soundtrack. The evidence or they that got away...Someone who *doesn't* have 500 modeling pictures...Something of the Universe, vibration, or earth...none of you dumb fucks. But mostly, above all, The Universe, I want to be swallowed by it.
