Man.   Such an puss.

absently  Huh excuse me

                                 Wha

Your expression, your face.  What’s going off inside your head?

he smiled wrily  Nothing

                          Im emptying my mind of what I think I know

Im  not-knowing

buddyboy was uncomfortable with concepts that didnt toe lines that didnt drag their feet through the dirt

    You said . . . . not not knowing.

Correct   Jah

Which means what?

Keats  John Keats 

                        In a letter to his brother wrote of negative capability which he defined as a state  an appealing state  in which a person I quote is capable of being in uncertainties, mysteries, doubts, without any irritable reaching after fact and reason.

I find the aspect of irritable reaching appealingforget what I know  learn anew  curious without memory and desire

    You’re so fucking queer.

 

Perhaps you can think of it this way

                                        As Maurice Blanchot French writer philosopher literary theorist  influenced post-structuralist philosophers Gilles Deleuze Michel Foucault Jacques Derrida you may have seen their books on the hallway shelve . .

. . Now that you’ve mentioned them, I have, although I’ve not opened any.

Which is to your disadvantage

                                 Blanchot wrote  La réponse est le Malheur de la question

Ouh là là. Frenchie no less.

Two years junior high I loved conjugating  So titillating

Jesus.

No.

       I think they like me trying to speak their language.  I think I rather humor them.

Oh ya definitely humourem  La réponse est le Malheur de la question

                                                                           The answer is the misfortune of the question

That’s what you’re thinking about?

Not-knowing  Present
