    the AntyChristo...

    Art? Who knew that ants surfed?
    ;- )

    streamline…

    All flowers should terminate in a butterfly

    all flowers terminate in the Ocean…
    there they cede to salinity.

    Cinderdrella?

    Additional evidence – the sandal appears to be levitated,
    as if not quite beamed in yet …

    the surrounding spread of dark smuts and charred debris
    makes me think it’s more ‘jaywalking vampire,
    crossing against the sunlight…’

  • Hard News: Cultural Heroes and living memory, in reply to Hebe,

    visions…

    On an LSD HDTV screen?

    nah, with a rat named Ralph, in a bedroom,
    of a rambling flat in Kilmore Street…

    Phil was living in Peterborough St at the time,
    he used to pay for all sorts of things
    with paintings and drawings…

    I used to visit a friend at the flat of one of his benefactors
    who had this battered bartered bacchanal brooding on the wall
    of his room – a room one would perhaps have called,
    in more formal times, the smoking room…
    I thought of it as the drawing room, it drew me…

    ( aside: The owner eventually went to Australia, but the
    wall painting was too damn big to take over,
    so he left it with another friend, to look after,
    which they did for many years, until they sold it,
    without telling owner, and trousering proceeds,
    much bitterness ensues.

    well that’s how the story goes, as I heard it

    I think it’s in The McDougall, er CAG, these days.)

    funny old game life, eh…

    Missing links...

    Phillip Claremont's

    ahem, Clairmont
    having spent an unconscionable amount of
    impressionable time in a room with the
    wall size hessian Hendrix Fireplace...

    the game's afoot...

    pukekos, a heron too?

    ...or little people with these thongs on...

    (I always wanted to carve 'FLIP' and 'FLOP' on my Jandal© soles),,
    but have baulked at introducing more visual signal pollution to
    natural areas - the literal to the littoral, if you will...

    (hmm, memo for next election:: two pairs rubber stamped sole shoes, with ingenious ink feed socks (natural waterbased biodegradable ink, natch!), one with cloven hoofs impression. t'other with a National logo walking side by side through the streets... so long, Spring Heel John! )

    Grays allegory...

    first glance I saw shadows of fence posts and a barbed wire fence…

    me too...
    gotta get out of the Socrates' Shadow Puppet cave more often...

    ...off to the mini vintage market - cnr Barbadoes and Kilmore
    Book Fridge site, opp old Piko/now YogaBase, today (11 - 2pm sat 23).

    Forgotten signs?

    .Flame o, Nora, evocative capture...

    ...my name is Legion...
    The southernmost lost Roman Cohort,
    trudges toward the Westlands...?

    ...this augurs ill,
    once apron a time..,

    Heads up, read the spaces.
    Dislodged Masonry ahead!

    gaze upon my works…

    Archeological find in Takapuna

    Well dug,
    but how do you pronounce it?
    :- )
    McKenzie

    The Anglicised Mackenzie had originally been pronounced “Mackaingye” – with a modern English Y sound represented with the letter yogh ȝ.

    and Swanson’s classic Yozin as well?

    will future archaeologists need a Rosetta Tone
    to arrive at sound conclusions?
    (or even an MP3 player?)

  • Hard News: Wikileaks: had things gone differently,

    'tis pity she's 'ore...
    Gina 'Flintheart' Rinehart has no siblings,
    so she can't be the Auntychrist...
    accents aside, what would the
    Aussie equivalent be?
    a Bunyip or Yowie?
    I reckon the Yara-ma-yha-who
    fits the bill...
