Only Oedipus can fuck the walrus, being that walrus.
 
But about MMIV, this quote from pg 124-125 of Deleuze
& Guattari's _Anti-Oedipus_ resembles the pig foetus:
 
<<It [the family] reorganizes them [productive forces/
connections and hiatuses/machines of desire] all along
the lines of the universal castration that conditions
the family itself ("a dead rat's ass," said Artaud,
"suspended from the ceiling of the sky"),...>>
 
And, regarding that book, mention of it here propelled
me to read another ten pages. It's like having my mind
yoked to a washing machine. Twenty mentions of Oedipus
on a page are enough to loosen any established meaning.
However, I find it essential to a recovered psychotic,
to better celebrate what I retain of my schizophrenia.
 
Yours truly,
