after the post in which i lamented the presence of so much work devoted to young naked white female people here's this via lens culture. acid attacks certianly aren't only common to iran so i'm including this not as a comment on that country, whose culture and people i know and love, but to draw attention to what happens when one group of people assume an authority over another. these are not pretty images but equally they're not the lives of the poeple who have to live them.

ukelele basics
bad habits can accrue really fast and it's best to iron them ut as early as possible. my truly horrible strumming technique was ironed out by watching this and practising really, really slowly. and there's a nice blues progression to play with at the end.

you can dredge thru interminable pictures of naked people (and when i say people i mean young people, young white female people - just saying) and then all of sudden up pops something that forces you to pasy asttention. youngho kang knocks it out of the park

no poetry in an age. so here's this
Thirteen Blackbirds Look at a Man
1
It is calm.
It is as though
we lived in a garden
that had not yet arrived
at the knowledge of
good and evil.
But there is a man in it.
2
There will be
rain falling vertically
from an indifferent
sky. There will stare out
from behind its
bars the face of the man
who is not enjoying it.
3
Nothing higher
than a blackberry
bush. As the sun comes up
fresh, what is the darkness
stretching from horizon
to horizon? It is the shadow
here of the forked man.
4
We have eaten
the blackberries and spat out
the seeds, but they lie
glittering like the eyes of a man.
5
After we have stopped
singing, the garden is disturbed
by echoes; it is
the man whistling, expecting
everything to come to him.
6
We wipe our beaks
on the branches
wasting the dawn’s
jewellery to get rid
of the taste of a man.
7
Neverthless,
which is not the case
with a man, our
bills give us no trouble.
8
Who said the
number was unlucky?
It was a man, who,
trying to pass us,
had his licence endorsed
thirteen times.
9
In the cool
of the day the garden
seems given over
to blackbirds. Yet
we know also that somewhere
there is a man in hiding.
10
To us there are
eggs and there are
blackbirds. But there is the man,
too, trying without feathers
to incubate a solution.
11
We spread our
wings, reticulating
our air-space. A man stands
under us and worries
at his ability to do the same.
12
When night comes
like a visitor
from outer space
we stop our ears
lest we should hear tell
of the man in the moon.
13
Summer is
at an end. The migrants
depart. When they return
in spring to the garden,
will there be a man among them?
