what sight of rainbow gives full and transitory is not the will to wake up the next morning, it's just late afternoon, well before sunset. lightning strikes the house. the radio quits. do the dead feel the hissing crack of close lightning like the living do? a bit of dread, a bit of shaken body wonder?

Well, regarding clarity and the lack thereof in Language, and
miscommunication and specialization: Speaking (writing) with no hope of
being heard (understood) seems somewhat gratuitous, but a necessity at
times. Speaking (writing) with a specific audience of specialists is a
condition which may not be met by this forum. Speaking(writing) with
the sole intent of penetrating the fog of being that surrounds each of
us to set up the conditions for genuine dialog requires patience and
the willingness to shed years of *education* and *teaching* and *study*
and, in Rilke's words a willingness to *change your life*. I understand
the tediousness that the over-use of neologisms sets up for most readers
who are not specialists, and I have some disdain for this situation that
dominates academia (or is even a *condition* for academic
participation). I think the issue is who one is speaking with, and how
intent one is on setting up a balanced dialog as a precondition for
the exchange of human energies as mediated by language...

Made a lightning trip to Vienna,
eating chocolate cake in a bag,
Peter Brown called to say,
you can make it okay,
you can get married in Gibraltar near Spain
christ, you know it ain't easy
you know how hard it can be
the way things are goin'
they're gonna crucify me...
