                        2003 
                      The so-called
                          art world is just a house of madem 
                          controlled by smart guys. Here there is no such thing 
                          as utopia. There is only accident. Unable bodies go
                          to 
                          art for codes and incantations as fertilizers for 
                          nerves and physical bodies. It’s like the transaction 
                          of electricity within wire that seeks every chance
                          to 
                          release itself. . I am my mother, my murder, and my 
                          fertilizer. All my injuries have been cured by my 
                          secretion of happiness and bought by my endurance. 
                          Every experience has been turned into “money”,
                          which 
                          in turn becomes nothing when used for exchange with 
                          thought. I don’t like sleeping but I do love
                          dreams.
