Dada

On Tuesday, as he watched I had a rag doll, 
swelling antigovernment protests boom,
there was nothing but yellow.
I ran from suburban Virginia, Mr. Ace-ship-zoom
described a sense of dread is praised by the
mixing with happiness. With straight shaped man body 
moving with dress slashing "Of the intelligibility of our 
own version of freedom and demanding of a coat for 
the people are doing right ring brutality, piss 
translator, their legs blazing."But I know that people of an animal 
running outwards
from themselves are doing to jail and some will be
the government, flashing." Tolerated when, when I step, and yelling.
And there was nothing but yellow
1999 and 2003 for only a few days
fearsome crackdowns, sending bashes grown them girls
campuses, where they flung a few I sleep and play,
windows bloodied as many heads as they could I could play 
a video of
bricks, chains, or truncheons; and jailed scores.
Similar intimidation tactics have been on display for the 
past few days now, the silent text moves flashing and yelling both truths 
with little result as I ran state bit.
There is nothing but yellow. with flashing
obviously truths 
and under the half asleep eyes I only narrate to those awake the
things I see and there is nothing but yellow.

  1. Katrina, this becomes a very serious piece of writing. What do you think of it? On the first day, you wrote down that you write short stories. Will you post one on the blog?

    Also, we are doing an assignment where everyone is going to go to the library and bring back a book by an artist. Would you see what you can find on Yoko Ono and bring that in for class on Thursday, July 9th?

  2. I like it, but I have a hard time respecting things that are the fun to read sort. I've been focussing on ugly plain writing, the traditionally pretty stuff is too easy. Also, my short stories range from 10-20 pages, I don't think it can go on the blog.

  3. Hi Katrina, What do you mean by "ugly plain writing"--sounds interesting to me, actually. Could you explain more about what this kind of writing is?

  4. First, you might misunderstand me by the word ugly, and I'm not sure I could explain it for people to understand. Ugly doesn't mean unattractive or I dislike it or that it will be offensive, it's just plain and isn't going to pander to readers. So not so much on fancy language or fireworks, the story itself should do the work. I like Hemingway's camp, and Kafka.
