No, no, you're not thinking; you're just being logical.

A band of fun boy, Emma Wilcox
EMMA WILCOX
"In forensics, the absence of something can signify its presence. As reported in the Times, the chemical stain left by a body’s amino acids will suppress plant growth for up to two years, allowing a kind of shadow to remain after the thing casting it is gone.
On maps, the edge of a place vanishes and reappears. So do tracks, roads and the original names of things. There are no indications as to actual habitation, climate, degree of violence or calm, or even whether the area is land or water.
But the land is marked heavy. It is dense chemically, visually, textually. This density of markings includes human bodies, geological timekeeping, stories told in bars, news archives, and EPA documents.
I make photographs at or near night, on foot, and within a 5-mile radius of Newark."
I make photographs of things that can always be found, and are always about to vanish.
But not easily. And not just yet
My heart bursts with admoration.

reading
"It resembled a dizzyness such as might have come from watching the swaying of the log, but it was not that. Probaly it was more a mental vertigo, an uneasyness in which my inner equilibrium was at the point of being destroyed by the sight of his every perilous movement. And this instability was made even more procarious by the fact that within it two contrary forces were pulling at me, contending for supremacy. One was the instinct of self-preservation. The- second which was bent, even more profoundly, more intensely, upon the complete disintegration of my inner balance- was a compulsion towards suicide, that subtle and secret impulse to which a person often unconsiously surrenders themselves."
Dont take this to a machabe place... I feel like Mishima Yukio's Writing especially in "Confessions of a Mask" is just honest. "Confessions..." had been thought as a fiction work until near Yukio's death when the compulsion to share with the audience that much of this work is acutally auto-biographical, the quote i listed here prior is beautiful and somewhat contradicts the melancholy, the writing i feel plays a jump from a sense of the unknown to the warm comfort of something familiar though new. <3 Beautiful Modern literature, i feel it is supremely honest but also supremely troubled. His history is sad, but his gift is undenyable.

" i know somewhere deep in my soul that love never lasts,
and weve got to find other ways to make it alone or keep a strait face,
and ive always lived like this keeping a comfortable distance and up until now I swore to myself that im content with lonliness,
because none of it was worth the risk."
