First I butcher all the dogs & cats in your house and I shove them in your mouth, then I grab you and throw you in the frying pan and I cook you in the blood of your own family members, then I shove buses and city streets up your...
From the novel Unalaska, Alaska
by Wolf Larsen
…Meanwhile, Pizzaface had started up a new company called Bering Sea Stevedore. Pizzaface was not interested in going union. The union didn’t do a damn thing. So I wrote up a leaflet and word for word it said:

Ha ha ha ha ha ha Zolipra! I never thought that having 10,000 penises in one's ear would be painful, just exhilarating! In the book it's easy enough to read, but when I pasted it didn't come out so good, sorry.
Brooke pointed out that heaven probably has plenty of vacancies. Maybe affordable...

We Need a Revolution in Literature (conclusion)
But now, with the advent of the Internet and posting boards and print-on-demand and the endless choices on Amazon.com and other online retailers the man or woman who wants something different than romances, thrillers, “literary” fiction and the...
We Need a Revolution in Literature (more)
The poetry stacks of the nation’s public libraries are filled with poets who were famous and prestigious in their times but who have since been forgotten. You open the book and begin reading and you often encounter mediocrity. These formerly famous...
We Need a Revolution in Literature (yes there's more)
I don’t care whether you like my own literature or not – for the purposes of this essay it is irrelevant. If every writer wrote completely different from each other – and completely different from the “greats” of the past – then there would...
More from We Need a Revolution in Literature!

Thank you Rien. I hope you're doing well too.
I think most people would agree with you - they want order.
Many people hate Jackson Pollock. I love his stuff. Many people hate the new "cubist" band shell in Chicago, I love it. I hate square buildings - I love buildings that jut out in...
Hi Rien
As I walk through the city it annoys me the way so many buildings (including new ones) blend into the rest of the urban environment. I hate this, though many like it.
I like it when a building boldly sticks out with some brash new architectural style - and thus disrupts the harmony...
