It's weirder and more surprising than the other books. I think there are more places where it's just more reality bending, deliberately so. I think it's a lot more emotionally raw.

Weird
I like the way you never sleep
And the promises you never keep
I like the way you say hello
And make it sound like time to go
I like the scar above your lip
The way you let your feelings slip
But they are never what you feel
Oh so fake but completely real
Dont you think its weird
Weirder then weird
Thats what you are
Thats what you are to be
What I like about you
Is what you like about me
Dont you think its weird
I like the rules that multiply
And make the good things
Pass you by
Standing here without a plan
Thats why your such a happy man
Dont you think its weird
Weirder then weird
Thats what you are
Thats what you are to be
What I like about you
Is what you like about me
Dont you think its 1,2
I wanna make some changes
I want my money back
I wanna start up with you
I wanna talk to strangers
I wanna be with you
But I just dont know
Where or When
Thats what you are
Thats what you are to be
What I like about you
Is what you like about me
Dont you think its weird
Weirder then weird
Thats what you are
Thats what you are to be
What I like about you
Is what you like about me
Dont you think its weird

The people who don't like it tend to dislike it intensely. That's unfortunate, but not surprising when one deliberately goes against audience expectations.

Come Quick, Baby
Come quick, baby, and remind me
where I once began and show me
places where you think you find me,
for it’s very clear you know me
better than I do myself. It’s crazy
that you should do, since I’ve known me
far, far longer than those few years
I have thrived from love you’ve shown me,
every day with you like New Year’s.
Hold me tighter, baby, shake me,
make quite sure I’m always spinning
with your loving words that take me
each day to a new beginning.
Inspired by Bob Dylan’s “Emotionally Yours”
Come baby, find me, come baby, remind me of where I once begun.
Come baby, show me, show me you know me, tell me you're the one.
I could be learning, you could be yearning to see behind closed doors.
But I will always be emotionally yours.
Come baby, rock me, come baby, lock me into the shadows of your heart.
Come baby, teach me, come baby, reach me, let the music start.
I could be dreaming but I keep believing you're the one I'm livin' for.
And I will always be emotionally yours.
It's like my whole life never happened,
When I see you, it's as if I never had a thought.
I know this dream, it might be crazy,
But it's the only one I've got.
Come baby, shake me, come baby, take me, I would be satisfied.
Come baby, hold me, come baby, help me, my arms are open wide.
I could be unraveling wherever I'm traveling, even to foreign shores.
But I will always be emotionally yours.

Soul, Life...
no poem teaches us poetry
not an ant
thology of laureated
poets, the books of grammar
teaches only
places and the pauses
like a flower arrangement
do you still have life?
it is the one that teaches
all things and leads you
to all places
grammar and then
metaphors of
what sorrows, lamentations,
grief, greed,
joys, ecstacies.
bliss,
it is the vase with water
the one in the garden that you choose to cut
and aver and adore
not books, not other person's poems
yours truly....
do you have a soul?
it is

One of the interesting things about having little musical knowledge is that you generate surprising results sometimes; you move to places you wouldn't if you knew better.
The concentration in my book on Marie Antoinette's childhood and on her family influences. It is surprising how some books actually start with her arrival in France!

Well, obviously, as soon as I'd finished the script I read a lot of books on Winston Churchill, and started to gain weight and really prepare emotionally, mentally and physically for the role.

A Flat Screen TV Set
moved moving
controlled controlling
reality picture
safely tucked chanelled
or deliberately threatening
wordles wordless
dripping down the streams of questions
unaddressed
unanswered
by a frozen user
with no soil planted in a pot
reality show
info security belted
paranoia watered
where have you sung, freedom
against the blind sight
of eyeless cruelty
where one becomes what is watched
when one becomes what is heard
shapeless plasma
in the hands of little gods

Time.
The books l have read,
The faces l have seen;
The places l have been to_
And the joys that l have known
And all the sorrows l walked through;
This if l add it all up:
To the knowledge undiscovered,
People l have never seen;
Places and pleasures untrodden and unknown;
And still, the sorrows unearthed....
Makes my time.

Books
The universe (which others call the library). . .
-Jorge Luis Borges
Books which are stitched up the center with coarse white thread
Books on the beach with sunglass-colored pages
Books about food with pictures of weeping grapefruits
Books about baking bread with browned corners
Books about long-haired Frenchmen with uncut pages
Books of erotic engravings with pages that stick
Books about inns whose stars have sputtered out
Books of illuminations surrounded by darkness
Books with blank pages & printed margins
Books with fanatical footnotes in no-point type
Books with book lice
Books with rice-paper pastings
Books with book fungus blooming over their pages
Books with pages of skin with flesh-colored bindings
Books by men in love with the letter O
Books which smell of earth whose pages turn

I get bored at the theatre a lot because I notice that there's not always a connection between the actors. They may be technically proficient, but they're not surprising each other. I'm thrilled by actors who make choices that are surprising.

The weirder you're going to behave, the more normal you should look. It works in reverse, too. When I see a kid with three or four rings in his nose, I know there is absolutely nothing extraordinary about that person.

My dream
I am emotionally frustrated by my stupid knack
Of hoping that my dream of goodness
Can become true in this bad reality
I prefer to take no more effort to accomplish this hope
Rather than to expect it would not be an illusion.
Even I am not counting any longer
On accomplishing this hilarious dream
I intend although to bring a new light
To any common crying reality
I want to believe I have put in this great amount of effort
All my sincerity
But others may think that I am an innocent person.
This is why all I can get is my sadness.
And I am unhappy arising from attending to the fact
That I concluded my dream will never be realized..

I Lost It
Sometime ago I lost my grip on reality
and drifted from here to there.
The whole experience was totally surreal,
and it’s something I don’t usually share.
Life in that world is not to be recommended,
the places were pure science fiction and weird,
the creatures were illogical, but intelligent,
extremely intriguing, and yet to be feared.
No one moved their mouths when talking,
and they gestured with arms and feet.
Their eyes and tongues did incredible things;
and the places we were in, did speak.
I was moving without thinking or walking,
in an instant I was here and then there.
With no idea of where I was going next,
I travelled between zip codes in the air.
The imaginary combined with reality,
and this became normality everyday.
I couldn’t distinguish between them,
until the unreal just faded away.

It turned out to be exactly that, but more challenging emotionally. I looked at it in a more physical way, having to act in a chair and move around. But it really was more emotionally challenging.

I have accomplished a lot, but it didn't happen overnight for me. I was 35 when I got the show, and had been working professionally for 15 years. It would be a lot weirder if I were in my early 20s and stumbled into it.
