lassitude

SHAMBLING, CHILDISH and INCOMPETENT

- it’s laying on the floor, surrounded by records; reading liner notes while the breeze whips window treatments. trying to secret thinks into things.

- it’s falling in and out of the same dream that keeps changing. it’s always nico or the velvet underground playing in the background.

- it’s lou reed visiting father john misty in a dream and telling him to knock it off ("delete those tracks, don't summon the dead, i am not your plaything. the collection of souls is an expensive pastime."); anyhow ryan adams covering tswift was plenty. 1969 forever.

- it’s love and loss and falling in and out of love again and again. forever. all of my txts are about either love or drugs.

- it’s booking luxury travel to eastern europe looking for vampires and other goons.

- it’s waking up to the grateful dead and wondering who put that there? (and is that branford marsalis playing saxophone?)

- it's being too tired to try to be cool and do much but hum along while toes tap. i’ll get my head fixed in the morning.

andrew m. cuomo said shortly after the breakout, “i’d be shocked if a correction guard was involved in
this.”

in a sworn statement to the new york state police obtained by the new york times on thursday,
mr. palmer described the paintings as the center of an unfettered, longstanding relationship with
the men he was charged with guarding. he bought paintbrushes and tubes of white zinc and white
titanium paint for mr. matt at a nearby art supply store. he gave a large tube of acrylic paint to mr.
sweat. and to protect the inmates during inspections, mr. palmer told the police, he led mr. matt
onto the catwalk behind his cell and helped him hide paint tubes “on top of the air vent.”"
