faced with
such a strange

stranger looking fruit
it was a bit
intimidating

to think how
to eat
it

did you bite
into
like an apple

eat
centre
like a pomegranate

invited by omission into your life destination
you do not say: come
since you are not the one preferring
words or objets of solid bases
placed at windows though, you recognise
sun fits them better but not a
-venez, je vous dirai.
or an -i love jeeps.

consider myself more practical
if i picture you inside a car

[CARMEN]
L’amour est un oiseau rebelle
que nul ne peut apprivoiser,
et c’est bien en vain qu’on l’appelle,
s’il lui convient de refuser.
Rien n’y fait, menace ou prière,
l’un parle bien, l’autre se tait;
et c’est l’autre que je préfère:
il n’a rien dit, mais il me plait.
L’amour ! etc.

[CHOEUR]
L’amour est un oiseau rebelle, etc.

[CARMEN]
L’amour est enfant de bohème,
il n’a jamais connu de loi:
Si tu ne m’aimes pas, je t’aime;
si je t’aime, prends garde à toi! etc.

[CHOEUR]
Prends garde à toi! etc.
L’amour est enfant de bohème, etc.

[CARMEN]
L’oiseau que tu croyais surprendre
battit de l’aile et s’envola -
l’amour est loin, tu peux l’attendre;
tu ne l’attends plus, il est là!

Tout autour de toi vite, vite,
il vient, s’en va, puis il revient -
tu crois le tenir, il t’évite,
tu crois l’éviter, il te tient.
L’amour ! etc.

[CHOEUR]
Tout autour de toi, etc.

[CARMEN]
L’amour est enfant de bohème,
il n’a jamais connu de loi,
si tu ne m’aimes pas, je t’aime;
si je t’aime, prends garde à toi!
Si tu ne m’aimes pas, je t’aime, etc.

[CHOEUR]
Prends garde à toi! etc.
L’amour est enfant de bohème, etc.

English Translation of “Habanera”

[CARMEN]
Love is a rebellious bird
that nobody can tame,
and you call him quite in vain
if it suits him not to come.
Nothing helps, neither threat nor prayer.
One man talks well, the other’s mum;
it’s the other one that I prefer.
He’s silent but I like his looks.
Love! Love! Love! Love!

[CHORUS]
Love is a rebellious bird

[CARMEN]
Love is the child of bohemia,
it has never, ever, known a law;
love me not, then I love you;
if I love you, you’d best beware! etc.

[CHORUS]
You’d best beware!
Love is the child of bohemia.

[CARMEN]
The bird you thought you had caught
beat its wings and flew away …
love stays away, you wait and wait;
when least expected, there it is!

Swift so swift,
it comes, it goes, and then returns …
you think you hold it , it avoids you
you think you’re free, it holds you fast.

[CHORUS]
All around you,

[CARMEN]
Love is the child of bohemia,
it has never, ever, known a law;
if you love me not, then I love you;
if I love you, you’d better beware! etc.

[CHORUS]
You’d better beware!
Love is the child of bohemia.

Habanera: L’amour est un oiseau rebelle – Opera Carmen // Marilyn Horne

7 am. hospital date. a small surprise intervention. since there wasn’t any beds, been taken to a presidential room. quite like a 5 stars hotel this room… a time for glamour in hospitals
+

(room view)
+

8 / 9. exhausting waiting. anxiety. small talk. took my laptop: music always.
brother calling from boston, he said -i am here watching whales but i am there with you. he said – everything will be ok, tell me, tell me which books you like. he always buy me books during his trip, actually books or shoes. I said – “Documenta Kassel”, or “A fortunate man”, or “And our faces, my heart, brief as photos” both by John Berger, or “Dance, Dance, Dance or “After Dark” by Murakami.

Mother called from Brasil, both silent like knowing the feeling with such precision that there was no need to talk about it. Lore, Virgi and my father talking about love affairs of some people we know, laughing.

Wrote a mail to someone very precious to me. Read a mail by sophie telling me she uploaded some Sakamoto music for me, couldn’t wait to download… but net signal was so weak.

9.30 Taken to the surgery room. Collapsing in tears for the major emotion, knowing this was small but couldn’t help. I have a lot of hospital knowledge achieved during my life, will write about it…. For example, there are lots of gay men working inside hospitals, nurses and stretchers (i like that word). They have this very warm, gentle but strong way of handling bodies or even moods. He told me -You will flood the operating room. I laughed. He looked very modern, I liked him.

9.35 My doctor calling me “little one”, telling the only nurse in the operating room that i had this angel face but that i was terrible… The sort of frivolous-nice-talk in the middle of experiencing strong events. Laughed, still polite, closing my eyes, wanting time to be fast. And it was really fast. -It is ok caro, he said, I do not see anything wrong. So this is a good news.

9.45 Back to the presidential room. Happy in a very quiet way and exhausted.

13- 14 -15 and the rest of saturday hours _ Contrast. We planned what nice thing we would eat. Music. Relief. Energy. Chocolates.
Received a mail from jochen. telling me about this fantastic event “Dial a diva”
and that semuin would be playing by 23. So i spent most of the saturday hearing people all around the world doing crazy, bad, hilarious, reading poetry, amazing things.
Semuin was great, such a thrill being connected with all these people… internet is amazing.

Lots of friends love & care. I drawn my self in their pool love.

It was great, or is it just that my state of fascination, so vulnerable. Anyway… i had so much fun hearing it. Imagining people on “gambia” singing. I also received a very nice dancing song from ian “The return of us” by Afg/Delay. Makes me wanna dance right away. Daydreaming of a big party i will do when a get fully recovered. Though i want to dj, i think i want to dance so much that it would be a tough tough choice…

situation:
fauve, more fauve… we have this task: go to peculiar places, exchange music and movies. actually the three of us we want to see the movie in this places, but we always start talking and never have the time to see them.
this time we were not allow to take photos of the place, we stole these ones. then used the laptop camera. next one is swedish club restaurant. there was this very kitsch music in the background… made us want be 15 years old girls making a birthday party video album

previous events:
i had hip surgery few months ago. recovery is a little bit exhausting sometimes.
had some complications days ago that got me and my beloved friend lore, in panic, running through doctors, hearing very strong lines, opposites advices… we end up laughing finally, like remembering most of the polaroids you keep from sudden tsunami events that gets you acting in instinctive-mode. it all turned out to be ok. just a rush of uncertainty for a moment. i promised her we would do some nice things to create contrasts out of it. so be it. pure fauvism these days. we stayed in this very very nice place for long time, talking, drawing, and taking pictures. a lot of acquaintances approached to say hello not even guessing the backstage scenes that got us there, so in a mood for joy. i am surprised by those moments in life built upon polarity.

dinner at analia’s house
+

+
once upon a time A&C were together. Now A is with B and C with D. Both look happy. There is something in both couples apartment/lives that feels so familiar and symmetric to me, that i can help thinking how great it would be to live in community again. The other thing in common they have is the fact that “teorema” the book was lost and neither A nor C remember who owned it. But just a few weeks ago A run into the book… (is a rather difficult to get this specific edition). now i am reading it.

they still do not remember who owns it.

finally we all share dinner. it was so easy. E told he had been offerred a place to do things, events, art exhibitions, etc. Everyone asked if we could make a party and dance but there is this thing about the owner, he doesn’t allow parties, except saxo music. My beloved B asked if there was chances to make a “variete show”, he does the most amazing interpretation of isabella rossellini in “blue velvet”. his eyes sparkled

so everyone is thinking what kind of saxo music could we play… please we really need suggestions. Is there any electronic music including saxo? or some minimal? nanosounds including saxo? please, please, let us know

thought a draw of terence stamp would be nice for the post, given the fact that “teorema” sort of gathered all together like a saturday night fever for a fauve dinner.

so, pick my nail polishes, transparent sheets and made the draw and started taking photos. terence stamp in my bedroom, such a gentleman. …guess i must have felt what the characters in the film did. fascination.
