A garden tries to take something perfect and show it perfectly; the resulting hyperreality is ruinously imperfect. The untamed chaos of nature is presented as if it were order. Mystery is hidden with species and genus labeled. Beauty is kept in stasis; ugliness is seen. And with order disrupted, there is chaos: planned paths and aesthetic arrangement are misleading and aimless. Eve was right. Lilith was wrong. Life doesn’t begin in a garden; death does.
“I will buy you a garden…”
“I will buy you a garden…”

In an earlier Away Message I claimed: I am a big believer in Free Stuff.
Yet I hate packing, which is bad because it consists of being Free and having Stuff.
I’m not sure which the problem is: believe, or I am.
It has taken me 3 years for me to realize that this is just like junior year, last year was just like sophomore year, and 2 years ago was just like freshman year.
