The Dark Side

In the beginning was Logic.
And Logic had meaning and Logic knew reason
And Post-Modernism did not enter anyone's mind.

Then Derrida said " Let there be darkness "
And Derrida did not separate darkness from the light.
The darkness he called light
And the light he called darkness.

And there was sunset
and there was midnight
The first night of madness.

and its gone downhill from there

The trace I leave to me means at once my death, to come or already come, and the hope that it will survive me. It is not an ambition of immortality; it is fundamental. I leave here a bit of paper, I leave, I die; it is impossible to exit this structure; it is the unchanging form of my life. Every time I let something go, I live my death in writing."
