Vessel Log: 2009 02 02

: The Hiroshima Poetry Hoax. Araki Yasusada. I’m a fan of literary hoaxes. Like JT Leroy. Everything we read is suspect; the newspaper, magazines, blogs, books, encyclopedias. We live in an age where “crisis” is a buzz-word and deception is another phrase in the formula. I smell rosemary. Never take a movie recommendation off a facebook status. Spaghetti leaves the kitchen like a crime scene. Some movies show disregard for extras. Like cartoons where cute creatures live in extraordinary cities; you never see the workers, the builders, the cleaning crew. Just the leisure class of Crayola paint and mouths half the size of a circle.
