Walker Percy
“The novelist or poet (painter creator) in the future might be able to go (furthur),
to discover how it is with man himself (if hes not a liar), who he is (if hes
not a liar), and how it is between him and other men.”
philosopher semioticist better
than semiotician
Percy please Men
at
a time when the male gender was considered the appropriate proper pronoun how gouache an
ache in his balls
he didnt grasp the unremitting
deference to men they get to have their
cake and eat it too anit didnt matter if
majority was women THAT HAD to
drive them apeshit
old men were still little boys
who had to have their noses wiped clothes cleaned food prepared for
a whiny lot
thats why he didnt fit inhis mother wouldnt let him fit in
she best expressed it when he was a
young teen and protested that he didnt want to do womens workSHE SLAPPED HIS FACE shocked himbrought him smackdab into the moment If
you think you’re leaving this house, my house, and being a bum some woman has to
take care of, you’re out of your mind, you have another thing coming, buster.
hurt his feelings she called him a bum
Walker Percy was a man of his
timehis protagonists alienated upper-middle-class men write what you know he died in 1990
its now Percys Future
thirty years after his death man
is no more familiar with himself than while Percy was alive
in fact hes in retrograde degenerating
degenerates particularly those akin to Percy protagonists
when he tells family friends that
he does not SEE
men its not hyperbolehe does not women appeal to him here
in the Future if men could be more like
women he may be able to SEE
those marled vapours that could coalesce condense begin to form the fog of menthough he didnt have high hopes
Time is running out
Step
aside gents
Let the women through
possibly the Future
