Enlightenment and Despair on a Sunday Morning

It is the morning and I should be sleeping, but I'm not. Maybe soon, but it's been quite difficult to get tired. Perhaps because it's such a beautiful day outside; it feels like a cosmic sin to be holed up in a dark bedroom when the sun is shining so lovely out there.

Kiwikat surprised me with a PAINTING! This makes two of her paintings I have, both with a snake/apple theme. This makes me the largest private collector of her paintings other that herself! I keep saying that she and I, along with a few other key artists I know, should start a Neo-Surrealist movement in art. We are in desperate need of one in this hyperrealism sort of world we're living in.

"Do you know anything of this enlightenment I speak of?" said the foolish seeker.

The old traveler smiled at him and dropped the large bag he was carrying and the seeker was illuminated.

"Yes, but now what?" asked the enlightened fool.

The old traveler picked up baggage and continued on his way.

My compatriot in the obvious brigade, secret agent jane doe, declared that her work was to be refered to as "catastrophic", and that the style of "burning the line between reality and fantasy for the purpose of the enlightenment of the reader" that includes hyper powered mysticism in the hands of nearly witless charactures of the facets of a single self will, in the future, be refered to as catastophic as well.

I think the catastrophic art movement sounds cooler than the Neo-surrealist movement, which I think already happened. Your review will be on my journal by the end of the night. Presuming.

Oooh, Catastrophic sounds lovely. It's kind of eerie, as it seems to describe both my art and poetry.

Thanks for the review in advance. I really appreciate it.
