recuperación
for the past few years i have had some good times. in fact, looking back upon the pre-21 years, i had a fucking blast. the idea of growing up sucks but it a bitter reality im beginning to accept. i think that putting off drinking and smoking for a while (save tonight) will help me focus on the real shit.
working less, sleeping more: no better elixir to cure insanity. fully rejuvenated; i now set forth with the mission of finishing off the associates and lifting the burden consumer debt has placed upon my shoulders.
"anarchism's only had some success in the sphere of cultural avant-gardism because of its failure as a political movement; cognizant of anarchism's claims to overcome the barrier between art and political activism, he neverthless suggests that this is not achieved in reality."

this position is killing me. i dont think it's possible to assign an either/or choice between successful art and successful political activism. instead of the ultimatum of aesthetics vs. politics, i think we need more ideologue poets who can strike a chord with regular folks.
i feel the differences among those who align with anarchism are irreconcilable and the idea of an anarchist "community" is absurd. the encapsulation of revolutionary culture brings to mind the paris commune's tragic end. accepting reality is a necessity, however, and it's important that social revolutionaries do so. one thing is for certain: we need to retell the stories of our past in order to understand our present and look into our future. with this in mind:
who wants to put on a stage production of "Haymarket: Whose Name the Few Still Say with Tears" by Jean Claude Paye. I would prefer to do "Primo Maggio" but i can't find the script. All i can find is a poem by Pietro Gori titled "Inno del Primo Maggio", leading me to believe it isn't a theatre production but a work of literary art. let me know if anyone finds a script. stage date: a28?
