magic trick number one
I’ve always wanted to do something highly conceptual, just a bit intellectual. Something with a metaphor, perhaps a blue door, black rose, and gold sun. That’d be fun. There’d be motifs and feelings. Good times and dirty dealings. Angels, devils, and the guys in between, as they all vie for a line in the penultimate scene. It’d be climactic, fantastic, and hard to interpret.
Sometimes the stuff that comes out here comes for no reason at all, a haphazard foundation that somehow stands tall. It’s something from nothing, as plain as can be, and lately it’s failing to satisfy me. So here’s a new shot with a new type of gun, something reversed and a little more fun. Something from nothing, that’s one way to go, but nothing from something, I’d pay for that show. It’s like watching David Blaine vanish like steam, like a real magician, instead of just dangling himself over some stream. That’s hardly a trick, isn’t it?
So, nothing from something, here’s the first take. Put words in a blender and see what we make. Just floating along in my consciousness stream, like David Blaine minus the marketing team.
