This process brushes a thick ochre impasto     This process applies a sorcerer’s ochre

I repeat paint process and pigment process     I underpaint and overpaint intense ochre (here, a particularly intensive use of ochre, with the cave floor impregnated with purplish-red several inches deep)

This process excavates earth and eccentric earth     Eccentric earth gold pans god processes and ben tuberosities; these tuberosities bloom Taryn tulips tulip termite colonies

This process excavates and scrapes experimental archaeology

This process excavates landscape experimental alchemy     An alchemy and alchemies applies ochre impasto / yellow and red ochre arpeggios     (An alchemical tuberosity tenors Taryn tonalities)     I improvise tenor thinner Taryn tonalities and Taryn totalities

This process brushes a thick ochre impasto and the pigments excavate earth and eccentric earth     An elliptical earth empties echo earth echo, and earth curves processes: earth curves a non-euclidean geometry geometries     Spheres slowly excavate other sections of geometries and saddle points / pigment ochre     (pointed ochres overlap with spherical ochres)

I work and rework processes: I paint and paint over processes.  I work processes pigmented words and I work word process and wild process.  I world work processes wild west and weird west, her work with cardinal directions earth.  I work a multidirectional earth Christina cardinals (Christina south of heaven thrashes season of the abyss).  I work network processes, an ochre neuron neologism and neoplasm.  My processes play plastic ply plastic.  I work and rework pliable plastic processes.  I work and rework this ochre from earth and into earth.

This process excavates earth and from earth, her red ochre     I excavate Book as an experimental archaeology and I harvest ugly ochre: I carve an ugly Book from iron and manganese surfaces     Process splits hit ochre black iron prison (process as ochre permutations)     Process insists on an incessant waltz (I waltz with ochre triple red yellow purple)     Process selects ochre permutations and combinations, an unprocessed rock refrain      I work and rework rock with various repetitions

I feel stuck, I say.  I feel like I’m always going to want to ask for reassurance and support about our friendship… You’d still want to be my best friend through it even if I struggle with the rest of our lives.  I dislike the tedium and the repetition but we are here for each in unconditional love.  I’m stuck with my brain but I’m also stuck with you, I say.  Very true, says Asia.

I work and rework rock with various repetitions     I processed repeat ochre permutations, an uncomputable pungent pink     (Ochre leaves an ugly skull when its goes)     Ochre haunts a reworking in my skull / my skull falls autumn leaves     My skull animates ugly ochre, a cadillac attic autumn leaves / light iliac crest

Ochre obscures my body but the processes reveal my erosion.  Ochre layers the floor thicker and thicker sediment, and the pigments dust occult.  Occult obscures my body black-red and black-purple.  An ugly ochre obscures my body black iron prison, and ochre stains my inside body inside purple.  Ochre stains my body purple pomegranates and occult grape gods.  My skull scallops out occult.

I excavate ugly ochre underneath or underground     (I experiment a hermetic ugly ochre which obscures my skull)     I excavate ugly skull and ochre exchanges ochre, skull red     I scrape ugly skull and ugly red / skull syncopated rhythm

The girl I told you about that I was messing with the other day started calling me Asia again, says Asia.  I told her I was going to change my name everyday and that “today my name is Ronda.”  And she was like “No, because Ronda is an ugly name.  It doesn’t suit you.”  Closet thing to a compliment I’m going to get, says Asia.  She cracks me up, I say.  You deal a lot better with her than I would.  Change your name to Helga today, I say.

I excavate an ugly ochre and it stains my skull red rhonda rondo     I excavate help me Rhonda get her out of my heart

This process excavate red earth an ugly kingdom of Edom     I eat red and I cannibal Ronda skull rivets

An ugly red earth excavates ochre underneath or underground     Ronda red other ochre solders inside ochre (ochre gardens ochre orchard)

Would you still consider me a spiritual person? I say.  Like if someone asked you, oh is Ben a spiritual person?  Yes, I would, says Asia.  I think if someone would ask me if Asia was a spiritual person, I would say yes, I say.  But a natural spirituality, one involved in earth, animal, people, and the spirituality that emerges from the community and the interaction of those things.  I would describe you as deeply spiritual and maybe even mystical – although I don’t think you’d describe yourself as a mystic.  I tell people I’m not practicing when they ask but I realize it’s a complicated question for myself, I say.  It’s a complicated question for anyone, says Asia.  I don’t think that spirituality has to exist through an organized religious structure or belief system, says Asia.  I think it’s a complicated question but a lot of people don’t think of it as complicated, I say.  They can say “I’m a Christian” or “I’m an atheist” and that encompasses what they think is the end and be all spirituality or not, I say.  They must be open their third eye, says Asia.  But no, they have to see beyond the structures that they take refuge in.  The beautiful cathedrals don’t allow you to see the stars, says Asia.  Did I describe your spirituality somewhat accurately? I say.  A natural spirituality involved with earth, people, animal, etc.  Yeah, I guess so, says Asia.  Not that I think that nature is god, or that nature is supernatural, but there is something supernatural in witnessing our connectedness to all things around us, says Asia.  Yeah, that’s what I was hinting at, I say.  Like a community we don’t recognize, that we are all connected and interrelated… I think I have moved towards a spirituality of anarchic animism or panpsychism, like there something that brings all earth and living on earth together.  Somehow I feel like the myth and stories I create are a small way of realizing these connections, even if it’s only among my small circle and world, I say.

This process excavates ochre earth and earth experiments yellow and purple / this excavation stains an earth sorcery

Process excavates one involved in earth / process experiments earth people I was born on Jupiter

Process excavates and erodes the structures / I experiment and the cathedral collapsed and reveals no ceiling but only stars     (Process pours ochre pigment till rising and gliding out I wander’d off by myself, in the mystical night-air, and from time to time, look’d up in perfect silence at the stars)

Ugly ochre burrows underneath or underground: ugly ochre buds in my lover’s backbone, a pink parasite

Earth obscures and reveals.  Earth obscures an occult ochre, and I animate animal ochre.  I animal a yellow ochre and red ochre: I earth purple ochre, and an umber underneath.  Earth underneath weaves whirlwind word and word whirlwind weavers.  An anarchic animism animates earth and communicates earth communion / no cathedrals, only stars.  I looked up at the ceiling and then I saw the sky.

I raised my eyes, and there were two women appearing.  The wing caught their wings – they had wings like a stork’s; they raised the barrel midway between earth and heaven.

This process excavates earth and this earth experiments orbital eccentricities     This process unearths tremendous ochre (In 2002 in Blombos Cave, ochre stones were discovered engraved with grid or crosshatch patterns, dated to some 70,000 years ago)     This process excavates and this earth experiments intense ochres (Red Lady of Paviland is an Upper Paleolithic partial skeleton of a male dyed in red ochre and buried in Britain 33,000 BP)
