A Prolegomena To Any Future Megalith

When lacing your hiking boots, it's sometimes prudent to decide in advance just what you might be seeking on this particular trek. Other times, better to just spin the bottle and start walking. Since you might be making this journey too, I'll mention a couple of modes and destinations to make it more likely that you'll come back from time to time.

Misterioso will appear fortnightly & wend its way through realms of music, art, and pop culture -- a deceptive strategy in that, while seeming to be limited in scope, these topics basically cover every other topic that is important and intriguing to the present age. So, look to the west at 3am and marvel at how bright the waning moon is. This will lead to a better breakfast.

Before we encamp, the first verse of a song I wrote in the summer of '04 ******

PART OF OUR ESTHETIC

You're always in great danger
And yet you're always fine.
You breathe inside a paradox
You can never work out in your mind.

The conundrum of existence
Is written on your consciousness.

So check the wind
And launch the boat
And let the waves erase the text .......
