Rilke swinging in on a vine
like Tarzan hed never know Tarzan though he liked to think that Rilke might be
flattered by the comparison
Things are not all as graspable
and sayable as on the whole we are led to believe, most events are unsayable,
occur in space that no word has ever penetrated.
Thats a mouthful
But lets say someone isnt using
their mouthsomeone isnt verbalising rather pointing explicitly
Whas Rilkes argument then
For instancegotta have a
ferinstance an example something to consider in light of the given
hypothesis
hes got a huge orangemarmalade
butterscotch tom
sounds like a
sundaehuh delectable
and Bomber who he alternately calls Booboo or
Bruiser Bomber struts his shit into the
kitchen and gives him a biggreeneyeful
Whadaya want
Bomber strolls over to the
refrigerator and parks his rump at its door
he had just put away half a
barbecued bone-in ribeye onion and yam the scent
hung in the kitchen
Sorry big boy Not on yer menu Mine for tomorrow or the day after
Bomber steps forwardstretches up tall on the fridge door and flicks a coloured magnetic letter off it that he keeps for his grandchildren
he wrote welcome notes to them before they arrived at his house with his
daughter
when his daughter was little he
and his wife made messages for her on the fridge door with magnetic letters that
they sold before they made their way cross-country to live in California
the letter spun across the
linoleum to a stop
it humoured him
but it humoured him
all the more when he discovered what the letter was that Bomber selected to
flick off the door
it was a green Q
Such a good boy Q For
Q
I
like that you speak your mind Booboo
