Alternate Preface: by The Invisible Child
Forgive me for beginning again. It is all I know how to do.
Please sign your name here. ____________________________.
Then impress your desires upon the page in any language or century.
Please make room within this passage for any who might arrive.
There is extra bedding in your ambient thought. I can see that you
are tired. This is no surprise considering that you have been existing
in a century of preludes akin to natural disaster. Recline here while
you consider that this alternate entrance has been ascribed exactly for
your comfort. Who can see a thing when one has become it?
Everything begins with your passage here. Without you it ceases to
exist.
Like a child who believes her eyelashes will protect her from the
dangers of looking directly into the sun I must admit something. I
have been gazing directly at my undoing. Without seeing it. Are you
surprised? Are you running across the surface? That is one way.
Someone is speaking to you — sitting across from you at an intimate
table.
Every such table in the world began with concentration. There must
be the legged and the legless and the eight-legged horse of Thor. As
you wish so you shall proceed. Over a cup or the back of any animal.
It makes little difference to me. As long as you send me your
coordinates I will happily coincide.
By whichever mode come inside this volume of possible
undertakings and undertake something. Here is a glimpse at what
you may find: Space Rangers with missions and without. An Institute
in the process of instituting something. Meta-amorous adventures.
