Shifting Transmissions

criminalwisdom:

A FANTASY IS NOT A PROMISSORY NOTE, CASHABLE IN THE BANK OF THE REAL

“Let’s invent a word so haunted, so transformational–so transitional–that the moment you type it your soul is sucked through it & into communication with & exile from everything. “Everything” being the truth about the world, in the sense that it is the world. “The truth about the world” being that it’s everything in the world–& though you were always in the world, now you are in there with it, which is a different matter altogether. It is not a truth you wanted to know, this quality of the world being able to lie alongside itself & yet remain a single thing. But you spoke the word. You turned the key.”

~ Let’s Invent | M. John Harrison
