Hibernation and Other Problems

Fragment #1


We are angry at the snow.  Answer: Much tongue-swallowing, frost on the eyelids is a button purse for many mouths.


Fragment #2


Ginger, I saw you naked, and now I am scared for you.  I am also scared that you are a young woman saying, “I believe it is wrong to expose your private parts.”  I remember at 12 you wore a sleeping mask to bed and that after your mom died your dad almost had Charlie, your brown, scruffy poodle, put down.  Your mother was a “Baylor beauty” and had dancer’s arches. 


The problem is peer pressure has mutated into pressure exhibited by seven-horned, sewage-breathing, identity-gouging, cash-defecating mega-superstar corporations.  And they parade around with irrestistably appealing names—like America’s Next Top Model.


When I saw you displayed on the podium atop that skyscraper, I wanted to put a blanket around you.


Fragment #3


Art is Necessary.


Art is Necessary because it is Self-Actualization.


Problem: Not everyone agrees with Maslow that Self-Actualization is Necessary.


Solution: Some people (the neat ones) need Self-Actualization.


Therefore, to some, Art is Necessary. 


Fragment #5:


Society is not convinced that the Arts do anything but piddle their thumbs with exorbitant effort.  I do not believe I can convince them otherwise. 


Fragment #6:


Hello Diana, hello Leah, hello Kathleen, hello Meg.  I am very fond of graduations and the degradation of final sentiments.
