6 WAYS OF BESEECHING A BLACKBIRD

Flying in･ﾟ★a green light,
The blackbird whirled in the autumn winds.
˚☽˚･ﾟ✧e shadow of his equipage
In what I know.
Even the bawds of euphony.

Obdurate, in dense-grained wood,
A bald angel blocks and shapes
The flimsy light; arms folded

Been reading The Satanic Verses. The prose is v turgid and manic but in a way that’s totally distinct from the great postmodernists. Feels much more one-track in its approach. Great stuff I’m eager to check out more Rushdie afterwards

No special class of persons is set apart for their performance. No special places are set apart for the performance. Desired objects are attained not by propitiating the favor of divine through sacrifice prayer and praise, but by ceremonies of resemblance between rite and effect.

Pathetic! I’m sullying the good name of the Four Winds. You must let me redeem myself.

There is some infrasound from the construction happening on our street that is causing a resonance with our cast iron tub.

Annoyed at the resonance rattle, but also really respect that it is the origin of attenuation. Use a device to capture a resonance to shift it into human recognizable form.

Always found the term "multifandom" to be kinda stupid & meretricious tbh. I mean, isn't just about everyone bound to like more than just one thing in entertainment?
