whats funny is that its beautiful, that the vacuum of the hot air that creates the uprising air and the downfalling ash, the billowing jets, the soft carbon laced rolling pillows of billow, it is beautiful and understood and predictable. and so yes, yes i did say something: i said the day is done and the sky is blue yet and there is still time to make your mark, in atomic weather whether you are ready or not; and this last week has been just that, ready or not or if you understood it, it happened anyway...
and somewhere, if you look real close, in the back, on the left, in the distance, over the hill, is a mountain. and on that mountain, this destruction of cataclysm was a spark of cuteness reflected in the upper atmosphere of a pure white water vapor cloud.
This is what one of the edgy kids in college said one day, as our writing was read aloud in class. Some of the work was lascivious, some of it was limp. But the most interesting stuff was bare. Revealed. Unapologetic. These pages may approximate art. They will more often observe. Hopefully, they will always be naked.
