garbage me? i went dumpster diving a few days ago, came across all sorts of things that people had chosen for one reason or another to throw away. a few tv sets, exhaust pipes, that sort of thing, before i came across a black bag quietly sitting on top of one particularly drab dumpster. inside the bag, though, were the relics of some persons life, from the mid 70's through the late 80's. it was quite amazing. clothes, little girl clothes, weird hats, christmas, thanksgiving, easter, halloween decorations long forgotten (a headless ceramic turkey). underneath were photographs, magazines. most of the photographs were gone, but there were many negatives, pictures of a baby with its grandparents, a man with his ear to his pregnant wife's belly, men with beards, old people mostly. a book entitled 'chafing dish magic'. the magazines included several editions of 'coin collector', an articled entitled '1984: this is the year to buy an RV'. many pamphlets about RV parks throughout the united states, santa cruz, the midwest. an edition of time magazine, 1986, a special on the challenger shuttle occurrence (had Feynman figured out the reason at that point?). more things. an edition of man's life, a semi-pornographic mag from the 1970s. a little ceramic statue of a monk fucking a naked woman while pretending to be praying on his knees. a ceramic indian head. and that was about it. an entire life could be reconstructed from one bag of garbage. 991122 ... |sCaRReD*disTrOyeD| The entire world is one huge chunk of floating garbage. 991128 ... amy an attracter. magnetizes me to it. 000203 ... birdmad i thought you were special, i thought you should know 000501 ... peyton I went into someone's house once, and they had garbage and refuse strewn all over.

We drag these treasures to our cardboard homes, or our tent homes or some old abandoned building home and we hang on to these treasures because it helps us to know we are still real.
