Physical sequence of events

Kalmar / Karlskrona / Kristianstad / Malmo, Sweden

If a day were an encyclopedia, a bloop bleep bloop of facts...

Kalmar:
A 12th century castle fortress built on the water
A LIDL grocery store dumpster found full of freegan goodies
Camping in the garden of an abandoned house
Here and there, pick flowers, pick poisons



 I had this nighttime vision sleeping next to this house.
I had a dream in which I discovered the secret physics of the universe:
the law of contradiction. I thought, this is it!
All polarities, all extremities, all this is on the brink of collapse without
the OTHERSIDE of the BLANKPAGE
Karlskrona:
Churches and kingdoms fashioned by the sea
The archipelagos, the marine museum
Graduation ceremonies and marching bands
Local bus to camp in Ronneby
A small town by the highway
Whirlwind of cars
Passing all through the night
Worlds apart




Kristianstad:
Hitchhike with Libyan-Swedish cosmetic surgeon
Arrive at an impossible entrance to highway
In a town of less than 2,000 inhabitants
Saved by the one and only automobile
A military psychiatrist with a love of nature
At Kristianstad, a high school carnival
Out to in, when in-to-out



Malmo:
A city of foreigners and the tallest building in Sweden
camping in the park, at the edge of rain all the night
The train to Copenhagen, Denmark
just an ocean away on another country's island
Steel bridges suspend spacetime

When the city just becomes a backdrop of virtual telephonic life...
welcome to a city at the edge of the future.


Sweden, your nights were so cold and your forests full of evergreen. 
Thanks for all the sense impressions.
