The Rampant Possibilities that Begin to Rise







“And how then, to get Rid of the Memory of *this that Barrels up out of the Distance of your Face? It is Night, in the City, again it is the City, that without an Iota of doubt, I must Bury, or Smother, or at the very least: Conceal; shoving it up your Ass, or shoving it under our Bed.  So, I Dug very deep in the Earth, when I was up North in Wisconsin, alone, in a Field, whose Corn was just Harvested for Fall; and in Digging, the deeper I went, the more I realized, that I could not, that I would not let anyone know what I was set to put in the Ground; for: all the more Ignorant, all the more Wiser, or so I think; and when I was done Digging, I Shoved it, I Shoved it all, right into the Earth, and I proceeded to fill the Hole, the Earth, once again; and without knowing *this, I knew that *this was Forever, the City again, or the Distance of your Face; and the Rampant possibilities that began to Rise within me: those of Vulgarity, of Violence, and even those of a little Bit of Tenderness, so fucking Delighted me so.  And so now, you Know.”

-Boris Izsus, 1978
