Introducing a young poet/actor staying with us to Anno, Played him "Touched", read and looked at the drawings. It got me going on writing in a different vein. Pura Vida XXXOOO Anno, Bee, and All Scabs I have been picking at scabs Making them open Reminding what pain is Milking the senseless Reveling in emotion Abandonment Serves only to feel alive Mortal... Why then? So to not feel my godliness That exstacy is another pain beyond pain More intense than picking the scabs.

I'm haunted. But in a good way.

Also strange sensation in reading older pixes of Anno's...ones I never have, because they're before i knew him (do i beg forgivness for using that phrase without quotes??...nor more than you do for saying...This Bold Heart Beats On). They are like those universal powers in myth that are created with the language you brought forth...it's what was once lost, but you live and remember. What touches me the most is that these fixes i know are usually written in the women you love, and though i'm taken eternally deep with that, i can't help but reading the words and thinking of your love/oneness with KjD.... As Beethoven wrote to his you know what, "My angel, my all, my very self"...i become lost in the music, the music, the music! Your other family...both/niether sum nor product of parts, yet greater than either. Here's one that fucked me "into" holy oblivion...(which is us) "You make me so free. You make me so crazy and dependent. Resplendent and helpless. Marvellous self-indulgence runs between my two selves. You are my purest conciseness, the one thing being the both; the both becoming the one. You're my edifice ? my opening to ancient things. The sticky crags of heaven hang above us and the rains collect below beneath the gibbet. No demons here inhibit, no God need here inspirit ? My insular nature is lost, and now I'm inherent in everything ever and always. I never imagined a world so succinct and precise. I never imagined a feeling so dense and concise. I remember you totally ? Openly I will receive and reduce, and infest all the universe blessed with the curse of your love. Like a murderer's glove, like an idiot's hearse, riding flat out to nowhere, on nothing, with no one, and everything falling away in our wake. Fully aware in my waking, breaking the morning with hammers, digging up yesterday's bones, building thrones with the skulls of those dead at our feet, those dying a second or two off the beat ? out of sync. Still linked to the shackles of Maya. The strings of desire are plucked by hands of a higher anointment."

Orbiting planets (KjD), virgin births (Alberto, Lee, Anno), and the princes (Billy)... On an empty body, but with full organs inside it that serge and soar, i've just gone through hundreds of Remembrance posts in quiet gasps and joy. All the prayers, letters, touching, i see the stars out in hordes tonight, and I wished on every one to relish and carry you like rain and wind does with the small and mighty creatures that crawl upon this earth. Endless love to all of you who have these boys and yet at the same time, miss them. Letting myself in wasted and lost ways (and without any razor blades), i am so happy...Sweet Lee and Alberto, feel i'm coming to know you better in someway as the names of old echo onto you. Alberto who rises and falls like the tao, and Lee is rifts of the universe.

Here comes the night, and the weather sings something never and always known in whatever eternity seems like... Message for Alberto. My nephew David has loved your brother Anno since he was a year old, and now that he is 3, he is coming to realize that he’s been listening to KjD over his moons and sometimes dancing, dancing in it. Those are his favorites of Dreams of Waking, and when we play the CD, he hits the radio again and again for their tracks. The other day for the first time in a while, I took him to watch music videos. He hadn‘t seen any KjD footage since he was quite small, and though he immediately recognized Anno, he was mostly quiet until a dozen or so seconds when he realized you kept Landslide beating on. “Wait, wait, wait…again, again!” He grabbed the mouse and rewound to you, playing you hitting the instruments over and over. “Oh, that’s him! Him on the drums!” I nodded, “That’s Alberto. You remember?” “Yes, that’s Alberto, I want to listen to him.” At first I thought it was because David’s a drummer at heart, and he’s been beating everything he can reach in experiments and fun since he could lift his hands, but when I asked him why he kept playing your visible parts over, he replied, “Because I love Alberto.” David doesn’t really take up contemplation of the crash out loud, though he knows it happened. He and I talk about life and death often, but when it comes to you, Anno, and Lee, he just tells me that you‘re always there. Much Love to your family, Alberto. And very much to you and Lee and Anno…you are the “intervention of the Gods.” Want to listen to you.

In response to posts 2442 and 2443: sorry to say that as much as I completely agree that facebook should be obliterated and buried with all of the other mind-numbingly pointless media formats of the 21st century, I have actually taken the terrible step and created a KjD fan page on it for all those as unlucky enoughs a me to have been conned into setting up an account and who have never summoned the courage to delete it! my excuse: almost any format that might bring KjD to even one new person who'll appriciate it is worth persuing. even though facebook is an abominable pile of shit it's still one that everyone uses, and in a way is no worse than myspace. So for all those who already have a facebook account - come one come all and join the KjD fan page! But for all those who've yet to experience the latest stage in the decline of the west - keep away from it like the plauge!

Have just spent an hour sobbing, at times almost out of control, on reading Anno's Anthology, and the outpouring of truth from those who knew him. And the attribute that keeps reoccuring again and again: his essential kindness and compassion. I am in absolutely no doubt whatsoever that Anno was a genius, and we can only be grateful that he left so many of his words behind. X
