you love a certain person

June 19, 2001

Via geegaw, here are watercolor illustrations of the "Love loves to love love" paragraph from the Cyclops chapter of Ulysses. I had the text of that same paragraph pasted to the door of my dorm room about three years ago, when I was bitter and despairing and angry all the time. More so than now, I mean.

OFF WE GO INTO THE WILD BLUE YONDER! CLIMBING HIGH INTO THE SUN! HERE THEY COME ZOOMING TO MEET OUR THUNDER! AT 'EM BOYS, GIVE 'ER THE GUN! DOWN WE DIVE SPOUTING OUR FLAME FROM UNDER OFF WITH ONE HELLUVA ROAR! WE LIVE IN FAME OR GO DOWN IN FLAME! HEY! NOTHING'LL STOP THE U.S. AIR FORCE!

The Greater Roadrunner (Geococcyx californianus) has zygodactylic feet, leaving X-shaped tracks with ambiguous direction. The Pueblo and Hopi used the X symbol to mislead evil spirits. Border folklore in the early twentieth century held that a roadrunner would lead a lost traveler back to his path. In Mexico the roadrunner is known as paisano, countryman.
