so in this poem, i spoke of the planet i created for myself, and now there is a visa application you can fill out if you would like to come to live here too.

a. - what is your purpose or intention in residing here? how long would you like to stay?

b. - what sort of occupation, if any, would you like to take up while here?

c. - describe the place you'd like to live.

d. - should we need to go to war, are you willing to put on glitter warpaint and be a warrior for twee?

e. - do you swear to abide here by the following principles:

1. live fast, love hard.
2. be grateful for small events and small graces.
3. life without creation is merely existence.
4. be in love with yr life.

my answers:

a. i am tired of the cynicism that the rest of the world offers. i want refuge, safety, and the knowledge that i will always have a place to go to where things are right, even if it is just in my head.

b. i plan to offer my work as an artist here, to record feelings and images and words and events that happen here, and share them with whoever will look and listen.

c. i would like my own cluttery apartment, with curtains made by draping pretty and strange fabrics over curtain rods. the walls might be yellow or blue, and will be covered in bits and pieces, and i will share my mattress with friends who'd like to lay awhile.

d. yes, of course. bicycles can be warhorses!

e. i do so swear.
