NP: featherless bipeds and whatnot

[alice wellintown]

Chicken plucked or Cock de-crowed...I'm afraid I don't sign on to
anything I can't read or do...but that name for a band...well...it
does at least allow me to jump on the wagon and bang a drum in the
band f Hamlet. There is some, if not more than sum,  I can't measure,
interest in Joyce and Hamlet and fathers and sons. Hey, even that
political angryeel can wrap this one up in Obama's dream of his
Mothers or something I am sure.  Though I'm sure what I am not certain
of, and certain that I am not certainly sure. Tiz but the cure for too
much of a Shakesespeare. Good thing that he iz!

A catstropic turning and turning in the gyre of this agon: instead of
disciplining emotion, thought excites
emotion so that irrational violence results. And the seasons they go
round and round and the painted ponies go up and down and we are
captured on the carbon of the Garden Getting Back to Kansas....
