art friendly literature
As far as I have been able to understand, the Japanese seem to keep things close to the vest. Friendly but remote and polite to the point of being invisible. It is in the music, literature, film and art that the Japanese really seem to express themselves.
appreciation white light
As a teen, I heard the second Velvet Underground album, 'White Light/White Heat,' and it was too much for my limited scope of appreciation. It was intense, but I didn't get it.
believe book doors
Not that the writers weren't good. I believe in those books and those writers very much. It's just that in the climate it's really hard to keep the lights on and the doors open when you're selling poetry and literature that appeals to a fringe audience.
people rooms life-is
One of the odd enjoyments in life is to be alone in a room full of people. To have them there as unknowing human filler in your wide shot.
dream cbgb missing
I still have dreams about CBGB's. I still miss the place.
running thinking office
I think more airtime should be given to Donald Trump and Orly Taitz. They should run for office together. They should open for Charlie Sheen.
gun conscious anti-gun
I am neither pro- nor anti-gun. I am gun-conscious.
opportunity opportunities-to-learn
I am always interested in an opportunity to learn something.
hate past thinking
I would hate to think that some people have found themselves in a musical cul-de-sac and have ceased to explore new music, or at least music that is new to them, because they are so glued to the past.
black-and-white film boring
I like boring black and white films with subtitles. I'm basically a drip.
identity violence constitution
Could it be that violence is as much a part of the American identity as the Constitution, and a vital component to its economic stability?
taken thinking animal
I think there is something very interesting about people who live day to day in an environment where they could get taken out by a wild animal. There has to be some kind respect that is derived from that relationship.
want kind fishes
Fish is the only kind of respirating thing that I consume. Everything else I don't want any part of.
towns musician great-music
I come from a town of great musicians: Washington, D.C. It's no joke, that history.
