Every day with Narcisa is a three ring circus, every day, all day long.
Anything can happen and it always does.
The good, the bad and the indescribably ugly and beautiful, running a supersonic spectrum from the ridiculous to the sublime from one minute to the next..
Narcisa. Living embodyment of theater of the absurd. Danger. Passion.
Just for today…

The sun was hot and high in the sky when I woke up in the early afternoon after the last dancing frantic joyful fuck with Narcisa at sunup. It had been some night. As I rode over to my post at the beach in the windy afternoon, my groggy mind wandered over last night’s events like a hungry bum searching for scraps over the fuzzy terrain of recent memory. Hope…
Narcisa and I spent the night sitting out on the veranda looking over the city as she recited some of her apocalyptic poetry for me. We even had a tape recorder going finally, like we’ve been talking about the last coupla weeks and she was really hamming it up… Hours and hours, practicing reading out loud, reciting her latest poems, talking, ranting, enchanting my soul deeper and deeper again and again, weaving her magical spells, singing obscure crazy songs that only she knows, dredged up from the tomb of the beautiful child who lives and dances feral and free behind her spun out searching eyes of fire and passion. There is life behind those eyes… Gloria A Deus!

Narcisa. She’s the only one for me, just for today, a holy gift from Heaven and Hell too, a one off, so beautiful to me it lingers between pain and passion and love and terror and a raging hatred bordering on the sublime. Narcisa, sprung like a living embodiment of the very spirit of poetry itself bubbling up out of deep nightmare depths of my own dark imagination. And I wish I had a camera, that any camera ever existed that could somehow possibly begin to capture the essence of all the emotion her very image speaks to my soul at such magical moments when the light is just right gleaming off her crazy genius bughouse alien eyes, her sleek catlike frame and long dirty brown hair that smells of life and death and danger and passion sex magic music dance joy sorrow movement light dark dispair standing here like a drunken kung fu ninja, an eternal acid eating idiot savant so crucial and perfect in every way.

Emergency special broadcast from Scabvendor.com.     We interrupt our regular programming to present this urgent Public Service Announcement…

Hey, not to burst anybody’s little champagne bubble here, but since I keep getting all these creepy political propaganda messages in the mail from you all up there in the good old Reptilio Republik, I guess I got no choice today but to respond with my own little anti-political rant. So here goes…

If any of you should need a little breather from all the fervent political activism and tireless Save The Whales gymnastix, maybe just take five for a minnit, and, while yer at it, just for shits ‘n giggles’ sake, go onto YouTube and check out what Alex Jones and David Icke (two very important thinkers, in my humble opinion) BOTH got to say about all these great new politicians, who are gonna save the fuckin’ world from the evil power elite….

It would seem that all that glitters ain’t exactly fucking gold, people- especially in the realm of reptilio multinational world poli-tricks.

Yep, hard to fucking believe it, hein? But it looks like we’ve all been HAD. Gulp… Again?

My goodness. How unusual. Lying politicians…. Running for president of the United Snakes, no less.
How on earth could something like THAT ever have happened?!?
Hmmmm…  Time to ask ourselves. One more time… What’s wrong with THIS fucking picture?
Seems like every few decades “they” like to throw some wild cards into the deck, just to keep the little sheeple extra-befuddled…
Remember JFK? Now we got the ever-untraditional wild card, Barack Obama, and his even MORE untraditional opponent, the fucking elk-hunting shot-gun-toting succubus Sarah Palin. Hmmm…
Sorry, kidz… But, despite the very pretty packages and all the glittering sparkly brilliant marketing and expert mind control manipulation maneuvers, putting lipstick on the pigs, they are STILL pigs and I am simply philosophically opposed to the idea of changing the world by “working” within the same shit-stem that has controlled and worked it like an undernourished circus monkey from the beginning of official “history.”
Haven’t we all been watching this same fucking movie long enough?
And so, that being said, I must renew, just for today, my membership in the Zero Party system, in which the only good poli-trickster is - yep, you guessed it.
Wake up, kiddies.
There is no fucking Santa Claus!
Time to evolve…
Boo-hoo!
Want change?!? Wake the fuck up!!!

One thing I know about Narcisa is her deadly fear of doctors, hospitals and a long-standing fervent hatred for anything in any way reminiscent of the dirty, noisy, violent state-run ‘clinics’ and fanatical, prison-like young Christian concentration camps that had traumatized her. Terrible administered hell holes that her ignorant old Born-Again failure of a mother had callously booted her into from an early age.
A convenient alternative to giving her children the kind of love and attention and protection and support all kids deserve but very few actually get from so-called parents.
There are few people on this earth or Hell below who I have more contempt for than Narcisa’s arrogant, hypocritical, insane old Bible-spewing cow of a mother. If it was up to me, violent, negligent, abusive parents like her would all be lined up and shot, which would also neatly take care of at least three quarters of the world’s overflowing population…
Narcisa has told me again and again over the years how she’d rather die than ever go to the hospital. And I must admit it really made for an impressive sort of gutter-punk bravado to hear her say it so valiantly. I even find it admirable, given her background. I could certainly sympathize and get where she’s coming from, despite the infuriatingly twisted rationale she seems to just automatically throw at every problem that comes her way. Let’s just hope she doesn’t plan on becoming deathly ill any time soon.

Today I asked Narcisa how it was possible that a being of such genius and supernatural vision and intellegence could’ve been born to live among such ignorant peasants. She looked at me and said, ‘Joni Shaw is not the ignorant peasant!”
I was flattered. But I told her I was actually referring to her family of origin, her ignorant, bible-spouting ass of a mother. That’s when she told me, “she used to be very e’smart, Cigano. When I was the little girl she wasn’t always these ways like now. Before the stabbing
attack, she was the intellectual, always read and seeking truth and the knowlege. She e’smoke the herb with poetry peoples an’ read all bout everything. She know all the grand mind peoples too, like Paulo Coelho an, Chico Xavier, an’ always travel to look for more the knowledges. Was only after she stab she changes, Cigano. Was then the clones doctors make her to take it all the crazy medicines for make it she same like thems. E’stupid robot peoples. Then she go with the clones peoples to e’stupid jesus church, an’ then she finish. She thinking an’ talking same like them. She terrify for these devil they tell her about it, so now she fucked up an’ crazy from take it all the crazy medicine and go the brainwashing in Jesus church.”
I shook my head. I will never fully decipher the crazy jigsaw puzzle of Narcisa. And still still still, I try as best I can to keep up with her alien intellegence, simply because it is there before me, beckoning me deeper and deeper down the rabbit hole…

Narcisa: “There is peoples who are the real human bings who eat when they hungry an’ e’sleep when tired - most the human being no so e’smart like that. That is the clones peoples. They all go the lunch at mid day cuz that’s the custom, is the time to eat. They brush the teeth not cuz they wan’ it the clean teeths, only cuz it is something the clone peoples all do it, is for they training, Cigano. Brainwashing. But the worst of all it is the cripple peoples. They no good for nothing. How can somebody who loosed the arm or the leg be same mental capacity as one full body person? I believe it like the Bob Marley philosophy. I rather to dead than losed my foot, cuz without it, then I no more the whole person, like it the radio with out it the antennea. No serve for no thing, got it? An’ the Narcisa, I don’t have sentiment or morality, Cigano, so I cannot participate in the society of the clone peoples. But I wan’ to participate in the something. I just don’ to know what it is… “ 

I looked at her in awe as she sat there talking for hours of the secret sciences and mystical ancient codes, quantum mechanics. Greek philosophy and sacred mathematical formulas, extra terrestrial vibrational geometric linguistics and higher dimentional magick and alchemy. It was like she was reading the Ten Commandments to a geranium. It all went far far over my head, yet at the same time I intuitively strained to understand some little part of all that was being said, for the mere raw eloquence and esoteric power of her words, however incomprehensible…

Waking up this morning was a traumatic moment of torture I’ll never forget, the fucking alarm drilling mercilessly into my fuzzy head like a sadistic dentist high on crack.
I cursed the day Narcisa was spawned from that nasty old hell hole an angry inch from her cunt bitch mother’s putrid stinking bung-hole. I moaned in despair as I rolled over and covered my head with the pillow. It was no use. I crawled across the bed like a wounded
bleeding old baboon and lowered myself down the loft bed ladder, hating every detail of existence with a screaming bloody vengence.
But Narcisa was awake. And, still burdened with all of her usual
hyperactive, attention-deficit impatience - which she still doesn’t
understand is a characteristic trait of the disease of addiction, a
corroding soul-sickness of the infantile ego mind of every untreated
drug addict - absolutely insisted I must also be awake at 9 am
sharp.

Anxiety. Impatience, hurry up Cigano, go go go! God forbid I should
get a full night’s sleep after catering to her every childish consumer dream, whim and demand all day long, every day of my goddamned life. And all that raging NEED and infantile impatience snapping furiously at the heels of a full, action-packed month of non-stop mind
fuck drama and systematic daily sleep deprivation. God forbid I should be allowed to sleep a full 6 hours wake up at noon like I’d begged her to let me do last night. God forbid. Narcisa knows I need to sleep between 6am and noon. And she’s always managed to expertly awaken me during those ungodly hours when I’m only good for one thing - sleep.
Narcisa has found a way to continue to torture me with sleep deprivation, even from afar, and without smoking crack. Remote mind control. Narcisa. Fuck.

She finally got tired of smoking crack and juggling coke bottles.
Attention span of a hyperactive puppy. She put on her tried and true cosmic waif denim mini skirt and psychedelic hand painted tattered tank top. She donned her purple shades and slid up beside me, panting like a raped drooling Lolita.
“What’s the plan, cigano?” she half whispered, half croaked, looking like an evil pirate.
I knew that was my cue to take her up in the loft bed and fuck her back to life.
She asked me to put some jazz on and I did. As I delved into the world of her sweet little chicken pie, she asked me who was playing the saxophone. I distractedly mumbled “Coltrane,” as I tasted her crack-scorched tongue with mine.
She surprised me by saying “John Coltrane?”
I said yeah, lost in her insane universe of endless surprise, while she ran her long witchy fingers up and down my back, delicately playing me like Coltrane playing that saxophone.
Finally she said “Hurry up, Cigano.” And I did. It was easy as I drank the vile wine of her stinking breath.
But I could tell she only half wanted me to hurry up and finish.
Against her will, she was getting excited too.
I can always tell, even if she can’t. Weird.
But it was already too late, I was already working the roller coaster car up to the top of the big hill and then suddenly, wheeeeeeee, I’m coming and dying and screaming and drooling like a rabid rottweiler, into her mouth, her cunt, her soul, as she plays me like John Coltrane’s fucking saxophone… and she is fucking me to death, and Iam dying again and again in her arms, coming, coming, and she’s laughing now, giggling just like Lolita, and she’s got my heart curled up like a sleeping cat in her crack-tainted claws, and I do not fucking care.

I opened my little notebook and began to write, the way I always do sitting at the Leme rock, my open air office. I’ve written enough crap sitting there over the years to publish several books.

For some reason, I get my best inspiration sitting by the water, either there, or at one of my other offices at the other end of Copacabana by the old fort, or sometimes over by the big rock of Praia do Diabo, by Arpoador, in Ipanema. I’ve been writing in these places for years and I’ve always felt the presence of some effortless inspiring force there with the waves at my feet. I’ve been told it’s because I’m a Filho de Ogum Beira Mar, a son of Saint George who rides his white steed along the shore by the crashing waves.          

I’ve always felt safe and protected and inspired when sitting by those waves, so I go with it. But since I’ve been running hard and heavy with Narcisa, I mostly do my thing at Leme, since it’s my seaside office closest to home. I like to be able to just get up and go whenever she calls me. Seven minutes by motorcycle to home. Seven minutes to Narcisa.

Seven minutes to Narcisa.
