Anti-Comedy Anyone?

This evening I served up a raw dose of good ole Anti-Comedy. A blend of absurd randomness and behavior, seldom paid for but often observed in everything from art films to rain storms. It was all about the moment and misunderstood by many. It takes a few views to make it really matter. Once you get over the fact that it's not what you'd expect at a comedy show, or any show for that matter you realize that self-expression is always pretty. It's not about making you feel good, it's about giving you an experience you'll never have again. It's not about entertainment, but about creating a moment in time that can only exist for those people present. This is not a performance I created for the joy, or for the fame, but for a deep desire within me to express myself against all odds. When faced with a force of haters and thugs I am destined to come up with something pungeant and frothy. I don't serve up hot-cross bunds to everyone. You all get a special treat. This evening, I created a special event for my least admirable fellow-humans. Go forth, and live your lives, for the live in the past is a sad mistake. Worry not about me, but about yourself, for after all that is all you really have, and can count on. I will not stop performing, and even then their is video. But video doesn't do justice, like live performance. Never give up, never give in. Thank you to all my friends who attended tonight, and no thanks to all the rest.
