The mad traveller
left him to fend for himself.
He excluded him
from the middle, to the end
of Wittgenstein's lineage.

Monday March 02, 2020
What makes this different
is the stark finality.
His job is finished.
He is now living alone,
at least for the next eight months.

Tuesday March 03, 2020
And so it BEGINS
once again, and then no more.
The third and last time.
When has there not been practice?
Sitting, standing, and walking.

Wednesday March 04, 2020
Silently waiting
until all desire ends.
This is the last time
that this will be required.
Officially retired.

Thursday March 05, 2020
Working remotely
is simply one more way to
continuously
practice grammatically.
Sitting upright while you write.

Friday March 06, 2020
Practicing thusness
continuously does not
make you into thus.
There's no IMMO to be made.
"There's no IMMO to be made."

Saturday March 07, 2020
Words don’t represent,
but seamlessly intervene.
This is as anti-
dualistic as it gets:

Physicality
at a very vast distance:
the final form of
moderate poverty and
relative obscurity.

Monday March 09, 2020
DD to ZZ.
What is happening to me?
This madness must stop
before it becomes too late
to easily recover.

If Goliath is
a truthful indication
of what it is like,
then he is more than content
to remain just as he is.

Sony recently
reared its technological
head for him to see.
It's now become a fixture
in his minimalist space.

His own hermit's Mass.
It brings him comfort and joy.
His traditional
investigations bore fruit:
He prays without ceasing now.

Friday March 13, 2020
He took a cab home
with an Islamic driver
because of his load.
He talked about Abraham
and gave him a massive tip.

Saturday March 14, 2020
Self isolation
makes life easier for him.
His form of living
is now becoming the norm,
at least until it's over.

Sunday March 15, 2020
Slowly but surely
He has been edited out.
There is no country
for this old man any more,
despite his understanding.

Monday March 16, 2020
Her perfect Tempo
is a daily reminder
of why music is
so important in his life.
Glenn Gould: "So satisfying."

Tuesday March 17, 2020
Some time and distance,
and bitter experience:
that's all behind him.
He's now in a position
to know that Dexter was right.

Wednesday March 18, 2020
What is the chief end?
The glorification of
sacred enjoyment.
The shorter is the longer
as he goes back to his roots.

Thursday March 19, 2020
Standing silently
at the Lousville corner
shining like the sun.
Fourth and Walnut street again
becomes so full of meaning.

Friday March 20, 2020
The old and new man.
The younger and aging man.
The secluded man.
The physically distant man.
The truly unworthy man.

Saturday March 21, 2020
John Smith tried to win
the game with three seconds left.
Thirteen to Thirteen.
And then the news was announced.
He was alone that evening.

Sunday March 22, 2020
It does not matter
if the temperature is hot
or cold or luke warm.
One must remain as grateful
as possible every day.

Monday March 23, 2020
This is the question:
Who controls the controllers?
This is the answer:
Publish this work as it is,
who reads it will understand.

from within his own ashes
in order to be
the National Director
within the Natal Order.

has prepared him for the worst:
the divine vengeance.
It’s also prepared him for
the best: the divine vengeance.

Thursday March 26, 2020
Jeremias three
hundred and thirty three is
the hermeneut's key.
He will hear thee and shew thee
the greatest and surest things.

Friday March 27, 2020
Musical choices
have been decreasing mostly
rapidly in him:
Gould and Evans and Peart, but
the greatest of these is Glenn.

Saturday March 28, 2020
Within the first month
of isloation it's gone
from forced to enforced.
This is a confirmation.
This is a consecration.

Sunday March 29, 2020
This is what they say:
everything worth knowing is
nothing but a lie.
Lies upon lies upon lies.
The way of truth is the life.

It is never thing measured.
Scripture as grammar.
For those who have eyes to see:
it’s the new inerrancy.

Tuesday March 31, 2020
Remember Me: I'm
the One who had your babies.
Who is the Blue Boy?
He's the one who does his job.
"Rory? He does what he's told."
