The Alcoholic part iii

This image is drawn by EC Comics great, Jack Kamen. I love the suburban dinner party image, overwrought with impending melodrama. By adding my stories of lower class suburban antics, the juxtaposition is interesting. Not to mention the writing under constraint – trying to condense my drinking tales to fit into that small box in the corner.

These sorts of tactics, to me, create a larger aesthetic process which seeks to confuse and antagonize the writing. It’s never been enough, just the words, I seek to tangle and entrap them.

Though I should just be funny. My writing is best when it’s simple and funny.
