I Take Things Too Far

- What are you thinking about Friday Dec. 12th, 12 days to Christmas

- I have been thinking about olbanian. Killing my own child for health. Do you love me? Am I the face of the other?

- I love you ... the Other, but not only for your face.  

- It's the dress. The strange haircut & my face. I am always the other. 

- It is your pen, your camera, and your face. Which is always the Other.  

- My...you...I... Do you want come to me movies tomorrow? 493 Bathurst. Salvador Pali. Film Fest.  

- The movies... is that just slightly too normal for Mr. Dali? Should we ... be scared and not watch. 

- I take things too far. 

- The fish lies on the plate. Once swum happily now it swims in my stomach?

- Sometimes I wish it was flirting?  

- Sometimes I get really flirty dirty. Is this turning with you. 

- I. You know. I'm knowing. Know.  

- To know. To have. To contain. To wish. To need. To miss. To avoid.  

- You avoid me. Do you ever miss me?  

- Sometimes I think of you.  

- I never avoid, I contain. I often miss, but in reservation. And, I often think and dream in colour. 

- Of me?  

- Of course. Who wouldn't? Well, I do anyway.  

- When is this (page 42 of 9) masochistic of me?  

- Well, does that mean do you like to beat yourself up. I see no black eyes.

- No, I slide between warm sheets with Books. I love books!!

- Is that what goes on? Perhaps someone should publish this? (Is that masochism?)

- Sorry. I love you.  

- I love you... always have, but that's not new is it?

- Yes. Capital Y. e. eh. s. esss. 

- Well allow it to be reframed in print. Is it more true if I write it? 

- Yes, always, one of 3, one of 4. I'm a beautiful lover. I love you.  

- It is good that we are all beautiful lovers. (Beautiful Losers?) Too bad we cannot make love to everyone...

- Welcome to 1967, 1874, 385 BC

- How would you make love to me?

- Not that I'm asking. I'm a beautiful whore. Oh! How you'd love to know.  

-  (Drawing of a magnifying glass) Yes. 

- But no, I am your sister. Think of the religious connotations! 

- Yes, this is understandable, but religion is not created by god but by you.   

- I know God...I loveth thee...Christmas cheer.

- Or booze. I am sorry for being inappropriate. Your knee is touching mine. 

- It does not bother me. Both the speech and the knee. Does it bother you? 

- Ro. I seem bothered? 

- No, but that makes two of us... 

- Stop. Full stop, comma, period.

- Halt

- Is that your wish? Is it? Then let me give you toast and tea and a hug.  

- I knew you would turn the page.  

- But I refuse.  

- On principle.  

- Oh.  

- But what a beautiful courtship! 

- Could we make it into a book, where the heroine refuses principal, at least in fiction? 

- "Refuses principle?"  What does that mean S? Oh how I love you. 

- Don't tell K I love him too. But had to tell you. 

- I dreamt of you last night. You and L. 

- Who said they were not "one of a list" (wink) !!!

-  Blank

- I'm in love with the world (hold me).  

- The table is in the way... amongst other things --> 

- Arms are harmless aren't they? Wait until the cold. 

- No. I refuse! Even though I think I started this.  

- I realize this and I love you more I love you.  

- You love me. What are we to think of that. Don't tell anyone promise me.  

- I haven't yet. It is not something that I allow in actuality. Potentiality. 

- Promise me or this stops.  

- Promise. I also am good at what I do. 

- But I promise you will not know. Really?  

- I have the lock. You have the key. But I will not ask you for it. You don't ask of God. 

- Are you good? There is mystery there. // Don't ask. I didn't offer did I? English whore (!) 

- I don't ask and you didn't offer. Angels have English accents. 

- So says the movies. 

- Where will you hide this book? The garbage will disappoint me. 

- I don't think it is there. // It's you. It's me. It's 8 - 9 weeks of philosophy. It's moving.  

- House 2x in a semester, it's my madness and my hungry aunt. 

- Lord forgive me my trespasses.  

- Thou art forgiven although I am not your lord. 

 - I know and no one is but me...I have learned. 

- Wanker. I should be first and I'm glad...
