�� learn chinese ��

9.XI.2001 :::: 17.06 dedication of st john lateran

this is me not walking to confession right now.

but as i walked the last couple blocks home today i was listening to laurie anderson, & how did i never think of how frightening �O Superman� would be? �especially the part, so chilling, when she says through that filter, here come the planes.

    here come the planes!
    they're american planes,
    made in america.
    smoking or non-smoking?
    and the voice said:
    neither snow nor rain
    nor gloom of night
    shall stay these couriers
    from their appointed rounds.
    cause when love is gone,
    there's always justice.

...& so on.

i wrote out this long, silly bit in my head about what it means to say "after september eleventh" but i got bored with it quickly. i imagine anyone would.

but today at the clinic we all had chinese food & i ate four fortune cookies, because no one wanted them. i am displeased when the fortunes are not actually fortunes but aphorisms. what's the fun? one of my "learn chinese" words was "windmill."
