KEEP THE FIRE BURNING
“Keep the fire burning” whether you’re in higher learning or not. You have got, to keep your practice a flot. Oops! I mean “afloat” like a flotsam, because no one else can be so awesome. SXSW : austin northbynorthwest: hitchcock and everywhere between. I mean, you have got to stay mean, stay hungry. not always a literal hunger like Kafka[’s hunger artist short story], but you can let nothing stop you. Mobster-type persona, keep it on the low like pasta flames, but keep the flame rocking. click click click click comin off your stovetop and click click click click click comin off your desktop. Options: take stock of your options [and] know that it’s more than press releases and stock options. You have got to have the practice that will go paid or not:  the art world’s voyeurs, meaning they pay to watch. But you do it. [As] fluid as a fluid : [like] Gamsol, and y’all know you have got to keep your eye on your “cuts”: [like a] bandsaw with no guard. Go hard, “so far”, even without the “so good”. Quittin’ is no good. [you can] Hack it like old wood. Not an old hard wood though, You can’t be petrified like an old hardwood though. This is freestyle you know? [like] Cy Twombly. Hella sophisticated. AGGIN
