Volume II


Portraits
(Ruminations about characters from the Bible. Check out the one on Lazarus if you want to see schizophrenic rambling in top form. I like the one on Abraham too. This is some crazy shit.)

Ahab in Three Acts
(Okay, now this is getting weird. Just how in the world did I go on and on like this? It boggles the mind.)

The Dream Project
(Well, at least this one eventually gets a few characters. Am I mellowing out here? Oh well, I'm still so stunned that I actually wrote Ahab above that this seems tame compared. Sort of.)

Legal Impossibility
If you could imagine a schizophrenic philosophy student in his late 20s, who reads dozens of books a year in intellectual, social and artistic arenas, writing out the structure of a cosmology revealed to him more than a decade earlier on LSD, this is what you'd get. Wait a minute, that's exactly what happened.)

*Angelhaunt.net Blog*

I decided to reload all of Angelhaunt.net. I'm beginning to feel a little better. Hope y'all continue to enjoy my writing. I'm doing okay I guess. Not perfect but not so bad. Anyhow, you can read all my stuff again.

Here is a forum I really like, Eastvillagepoetry.com. It is about the most free forum you can find. Libs and Conservs alike are welcome; we have all sorts. It gets an amazing volume of posts. Stop on by if you feel like it. Just click on The Wall of Living Graffiti when you get there to get to the forum proper. No threads, just pure insanity.




*Finnegans Wake Quote of the Month*


Bewise of Fanciulla's heart, the heart of Fanciulla! Even the recollection of willow fronds is a spellbinder that lets to hear. The rushes by the grey nuns' pond: ah eh oh let me sigh too. Coalmansbell: behoves you handmake of the load. Jenny Wren: pick, peck. Johnny Post: pack, puck. All the world's in want and is writting a letters.















*Statement Concerning the Angelhaunt "Religion"*

Previously disclaimers like the following did not seem necessary, but I have received some mail recently which made me realize that perhaps some people are misreading the intent of the Angelhaunt books; so I thought I'd explain what is the Angelhaunt "religion" below.

As regards the Angelhaunt religion, it does not exist. It is a sort of benevolent cult in the world of the Angelhaunt books; but it does not exist except in fiction, nor is it intended to. If it ever were to exist as a religion, it would be a false religion; I am sure it would not have the benefits of mainstream religion, while it would have a whole lot wrong with it, not the least being that its life-after-death scheme and cosmology is probably totally false. Futhermore, I have no desire to have my books turn out like the Book of Mormon or Dianetics; my books are prose poetry, and to read them as anything else would seriously detract from their value as art. I am not a very religious person myself, but I have enough fear of God in me to avoid being a blind leader of the blind, what with all the millstone necklaces and such (to use a Gospel reference).
