I wanted to repost something a fluxus artist, Nicolas Carras, wrote onto the Fluxus email community. I'm constantly finding extracts, several a day, on this group which amuse and provoke me. Fluxus in general enjoys being this way, and I have been inspired by it. These artists have a life outside the email community, of course, but the email community is largely a place to vent, and express whatever it is that needs expressing. There is something about words too, just words, that fascinate this Fluxus community. One artist, John Bennett, is constantly posting nonsensical mixtures of words that seem to make sense, but I have long since stopped searching for their meaning and now just listen to the hypothesized sounds they would make if you actually said them. At any rate, this one is about shit, so immediately it grabbed my attention. It's called You Are All Shit.(If you don't understand, don't call me, please, never call me)
You are nothing but shit
You are leaving for shit
All your life is shit
You are nothing but shit
You are eating shit
You are reading shit
You shiting shit
Your child study shit
You are responsable of this shit
You drink shit
Your brain is full of shit
You sleep in shit
All your body is a big shit
You smell like a shit
You think like a shit
But you will think all this is not serious, you! maybe gonna laugh
But I do think what I'm writing actually? I do think it in the abyss of myself

Well, shit, that's kind of depressing.
"Pooh" is more uplifting.
That was a wonderful letter and a joy to read.
Thank you for posting it!
Thank you for being you!
