I daydream about you
covering my body with yours
while bullets
slice through my apartment
or a stampede of wild animals
tears through the town.
Any disaster I can think of
and you are there, covering me,
face pressed against the back
of my skull,
heavy body melting on top
of mine
not because you’re taking
something but because
in this world there’s no other
way to touch everywhere
unless someone you don’t
want to die
is dying.
I could wish for something softer
but you know me.
I love a tragedy. I love
when it’s urgent.
You could save me even if I
didn’t need
saving.
Bagals!
now THAT is a comic, holy shit, I’m gonna print this out and put it on my wall

“This piece was primarily a trust exercise, in which she told viewers she would not move for six hours no matter what they did to her. She placed 72 objects one could use in pleasing or destructive ways, ranging from flowers and a feather boa to a knife and a loaded pistol, on a table near her and invited the viewers to use them on her however they wanted.
Initially, Abramović said, viewers were peaceful and timid, but it escalated to violence quickly. “The experience I learned was that … if you leave decision to the public, you can be killed… I felt really violated: they cut my clothes, stuck rose thorns in my stomach, one person aimed the gun at my head, and another took it away. It created an aggressive atmosphere. After exactly 6 hours, as planned, I stood up and started walking toward the public. Everyone ran away, escaping an actual confrontation.”
This piece revealed something terrible about humanity, similar to what Philip Zimbardo’s Stanford Prison Experiment or Stanley Milgram’s Obedience Experiment, both of which also proved how readily people will harm one another under unusual circumstances.”
This performance showed just how easy it is to dehumanize a person who doesn’t fight back, and is particularly powerful because it defies what we think we know about ourselves. I’m certain the no one reading this believes the people around him/her capable of doing such things to another human being, but this performance proves otherwise.”
