Poetry will be made by everyone and there will be emu’s in the zone.

“Then I went down into the basement,

Where my friend, the maniac, busies himself with his electronic graffiti,

Finally his language touches me,

Because he talks to that part of us which insists on drawing profiles on prison walls,

In that moment, poetry will be made by everyone,

And there will be emu’s in the zone.”

I woke up with these words echoing through my head. A sound clip that is usedby Kasabian at the beginning of  their song ‘West Ryder Silver Bullet’.

It haunted me so that I climbed down opened my laptop and went on a search. Resulting in my trusted – corporate – friend Google answering: Sans Soleil(1983) by Chris Marker. A experimental documentary almost Eliot-esque.

Acquainted with the Night

by Robert Frost

I have been one acquainted with the night.
I have walked out in rain – and back in rain.
I have outwalked the furthest city light.

I have looked down the saddest city lane.
I have passed by the watchman on his beat
And dropped my eyes, unwilling to explain.

I have stood still and stopped the sound of feet
When far away an interrupted cry
Came over houses from another street,

But not to call me back or say good-bye;
And further still at an unearthly height,
A luminary clock against the sky

Proclaimed the time was neither wrong nor right.
I have been one acquainted with the night.
