| 32 lbs. of Head March 2004 (second poem), 2003 Inconsistency in the morning Totally wanting about the earth The short shadows foretell a short day How quickly the light fades Random locations Action, action, and anger Waving a flag of one ilk or another A decision must now be made Quantitatively quoting quirks Strangely heavy behind the sea A last gasp, a fare thee well And off to a new beginning Formulating fragments Work, death, and death And more work and sex and taxes Saturday morning cartoons Cloistered Conditions Is Bugs speaking to me? Or have I been alone too long? The monster gets a haircut Singing in the shower Be watchful. The day shall flee A change in the weather And the dogs come back too soon Wandering the known Why does the city shrink? My throat is raw with singing Watery tombs soon evaporate Sequestering sobriety Drink, noise, and drunk Will it take that long? My puppet waves goodbye 32 lbs. of Head is an ongoing experiment between four artists: China Blue, Richard Humann, Suzan Dionne, and David Opdyke. It developed as a result of an interest in the spontaneity, interaction and consequent fluidity of meaning involved in a collaboration. By operating collaboratively, 32 lbs. of Head tackles their projects from a point of view which is necessarily multiple and often cacophonous. Previous projects include sound installations and exhibitions, as well as a round-table discussion published in New York Arts Magazine. |
