DARIUS JAMES, aka DR. SNAKESKIN SPEAKS

BARNEY ROSSET INTERVIEW

BARNEY ROSSET: I was in Europe. And I called Grove from Denmark, and I got my secretary and I said, "Hi, how's everything?" And she says, "Fine." "Everything going ok?" I ask. "Well there is something special today, I'm on the 6th floor." Our office was on the 7th floor. "Well why?" said I. "Well," she says, "some other people are in your office." "WHAT?" (laughter) In my office I had all my personal letters and records. And they had barricaded themselves into my office. I said, "Get 'em out!" And she said, "No, they won't come out." I said, "Go in and throw them out." "No, nobody wants to do that."

“All I ask is to feel my brain.” -Artaud

Hey! Never show me a picture of open
skull brain surgery I CAN’T TAKE IT!
I forgot what it’s supposed to do but
like gazing for too long into your 
own eyes in the mirror – YOU’LL SEE
THE DEVIL. . .IN YOU!!!  Then what
can you do about it?  Go crazy!  That’s 
what, & die in some nuthouse with no 
teeth like crazy Antonin Artaud the 
father of “punk” (in the 70s art-scene-
spawns-music-New York City-L.A.
-extension sense). . .I mean I can feel my 
brain all the time, that’s why I used to 
get high all the time or fuck fuck fuck 
and dance dance dance and TRY TO 
CHANGE THE WORLD!  TRY! TRY! 
TRY!!! all that.  On the other hand, I 
know just what the crazy fucker meant, 
don’t you? Like taking psychedelics was 
the easy way out, or even heavy meditation:
but we don’t want to bask in the light of 
our third brain or crawl through the crevices 
of our mammal imagination brain no more 
than we want to stand up and salute our 
reptilian cortex brain or whatever it’s called, 
WE WANT TO FEEL OUR FUCKING BRAIN 
BOSS!  Just like we feel our heart and cunt and 
balls and tits and assholes and pricks and wet 
lips of our soul’s exuberance at the chance to 
BE!  BE!  BE! All we meant to. . .were sent to. . .
more than were bent to. . .Pia Zadora is more 
than somebody’s creation, her own. Okay, 
let’s go use the phone, which is like feeling 
our ears or those of our peers, oh no, you know 
I know we know it’s so much more than the 
secret meaning inside all things. . .our secret home
