Drawing circles with a psychic worm technician -Butthole Surfers-




Ghostly wings hooks-a-plenty from the Butthole Surfers graveyard sludge outsider-metal art 12 circles drawn small 6x6 raw vision heavens. The zodiac and the colors ghost-dance-sea-slug race into the next garage car bombs. If those circles were drawn with a pencil that line would represent both separateness and unity, a failed success, I don’t give a fuck. Hits both sides like death, a roadkill mood as avant-garde punk and the 27 club. A symmetrical space outer space Mickey’s-drunk American dream if the center is an eclectic power low brow county fair. The Robitussin farm-space-between is where the action is a tug of war with our principles both creeps mental and dorks physical. But what about symmetry bringing the eye to rest you say? Empty space? Absurdist control? An isolation I guess only the lonely as the entrance to nothing, enclosing nothingness that sacred circle of invisibility and repetitiveness of the sign of solid movement like an arrow always just hanging on, a bullet 80 bones, an arrow of time maybe. Ziggy Twiggy mod music time fuzz-O-rock-O adult cartoons molding clay harmonies sometimes annoying.


The circle as metaphor for seven-senses habit and obsession and microdose and Apollonian chaos cherub ambience. Music repeats with feeling as circular and thinking about it as linear and nothing is real. The psychedelic is circular with no beginning and no end doing snow angels forever. Hypnotic psychic balance rhythms eternally simple ditch dig-it and not indulgent just a constant void of unity, strength and gratitude by people that wear hats. The psychedelic repeats, it hammers down a beat grillin’ meats trippin’ mother’s kitchen deviant and distorted and cigarette burns at times to keep you on your cowboy Bob Texas toe tapping.


Circles act as a door to the other, avalanche void black holes and time-nothingness meditate for an hour looking at that circle and tattwa symbols going through to the origin of the universe with ancestors and aliens and black water and barking snails and what not. Would the blood and piss origin of the universe be in the center? Or is it asymmetrical? True primordial oceans watching the wind…
