Flashbulb of a Thought #1

Genre: Work In Progress

This is the begining of a series I've called 'Flashbulb of a Thought.' The title comes from my favorite Burroughs quote 'we see God through our assholes in the flashbulb of an orgasm.' The true purpose the series is to find a way to string together the constantly growing pile of ideas and dialogues I've acquired but lack the attention span to fashion into a larger piece. Each are a moment or sentiment I've come up with or imagined so fast I don't have the ability to understand them. Someday, and until then - enjoy.

Myspace Message

dear stranger i sometimes see on the subway,

i think i've seen you 3.2 times in the last 4 months. which is, you know, insignifigant in almost all respects. but i guess we lead similarly L train-based lives, or something. nonetheless, i secretly scoured the internet (myspace, facebook, friendster all included) for some online trace of your existence off the L train.

this message is to ensure the next time we run into eachother, or rather the next time i notice you on the subway, it will surely be awkward and involve even less saying 'hello, how are you?'

yours, idiot
