"... The garbage of the 'infosphere.' ...politicians having clipped the sound bite down to two word phrases, the fun of creating your own haunting version, headlines like haikus, is fun. Cut the ends off a sentence and be left with a poem."

"Language adrift from meaning. There's always more meaning. Like crap to chewed gum, something will stick to it, Our active pink lump that attracts and minds the dirt, clings to any interpretable speck of concrete information. And hold it for contemplation.
