I am the grit in the gears, the missing bolt, I am the poker of sticks into spokes.
I like to know how things work, but sometimes when I take them apart and rebuild them, I have a few pieces left over.
I am a man, so I tend to leave reading the instructions until after it goes wrong.
And like all men I have a comprehensive mental map of the world and never need to ask directions.
I never get lost, only sometimes I'm late, or end up in the wrong place entirely.
It's what we do.

Handmaiden? Are you serious? I loved it. Poor Leno! Leno is a creature, recognisably humanoid, on display, in a concrete cell, in the small mammals house,in the zoo.
Leno:Endangered species. Place of Origin: Kilpisjärvi Habitat: Alpine Regions Diet: Cold Porridge Extra Info: Lenos usually cohabit in pairs.
Poor Leno.. scratches pictures of his arctic home on the walls, clangs his tin cup in protest, is fed slop in a bowl on the floor like an animal. Writes a silent plea for help in the steam of his breath, on the inside of the viewing window. dreams of home, mountains and clean snowy forests. whilst in his concrete cell. He recalls the fleeing tumbling race to try escape the helicopter, the capture. Losing his home, his land, his love.
Poor Leno Where you'll be, I'll go Where you'll be, I'll know Where you'll be, I'll find you...
His mate is searching.... Will she free him? Will she be trapped too? We'll never know.
Kilpisjärvi is a place, near to it, the Finnish/Swedish/Norwegian borders meet. 69° 3′ 36″ N, 20° 32′ 56″ E
Same thing happened to poor Minik,The Lost Eskimo, sent back to NYC from one of the futile Peary Expeditions... http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/amex/minik/more/
Steve! I'd mever heard of Minik; what a sad story, poor Minik, cheated by those he was told were his friends and protectors. Some parallels with the story of Pocahontas, too, travelling to England and being presented as a curiousity. Darwin's first voyage too brought native peoples from Tierra Del Fuego to London, where again they were seen as not quite human.
That was prob. one of the weirdest things I've seen. At first glance it makes no sense at all.
ReplyDeleteI'll be back.
How sad--that I don't know how to put those two dots above the o in Royksopp.
