a tiny bit of tomfoolery

A spring day. A holiday. A beautiful day for origins laid bare. The question arises from within and without, from mischievous children and coots embittered by a lifetime in minority, “what do bunnies and eggs have to do with anything?” And there might be a squirm, and their might be a laugh, and there might even be an answer which deigns to include the word “Goddess” or “fertility” or “birth.” It’s a beautiful day for the survival of annexed symbols and the bright light of incongruousness that they shine. There is an implicit acknowledgment of lineage in those symbols that a hundred generations of voices crying “ultimate Truth” can’t drown out; a moon which won’t be eclipsed.

Across the northern hemisphere bodies are goaded and throb, independent of mind and careless of culture, as they always have. Biology, the great uniter, offering every animal their undeniable cues. Today, in the spring light, warm and feminine in its promise of fecundity, we’re presented a beautiful day for clarity. Feeling that light on our face, its winks and hints at comfort, we might ask, “Why should this light be refracted through a lens of bloody beatings and spear tips and torture? What has this light to do with the adventures of a murdered man’s corpse?” Or, “Have we moved the movable feast too far?” Perhaps today is the best day in the year to feel plainly the qualitative difference between healthy biological realities and the dark, gnarled festoons and embellishments of human abstraction.

““Art for art’s sake” is overtly apolitical, and “art to change the world” is, well, too heavy to carry us to heaven, or at least convey the sublime.”

1 29 ounce can diced tomatoes

1 8 ounce can tomato sauce

4-6 cloves garlic or to your taste chopped fine

1 handful or more of crushed red chili also to your hot taste

Stir this well and add a little water if too thick. Tomatoes have lots of salt so check before adding, then add to your taste. If you like oregano or cilantro that can be added. Make ahead of time as it s flavor will be much better in 2-3 days. Good on eggs and corn chips.
