I
feel
as
if
I
had
had
three
quick
drinks
on
an
empty
stomach
.
Jubal
,
why
isn
’
t
there
stuff
like
this
around
where
a
person
can
see
it
?
"
"
Because
the
world
has
gone
nutty
and
contemporary
art
always
paints
the
spirit
of
its
times
.
Rodin
did
his
major
work
in
the
tail
end
of
the
nineteenth
century
and
Hans
Christian
Andersen
antedated
him
by
only
a
few
years
.
Rodin
died
early
in
the
twentieth
century
,
about
the
time
the
world
started
flipping
its
lid
?
and
art
along
with
it
.
"
Rodin
’
s
successors
noted
the
amazing
things
he
had
done
with
light
and
shadow
and
mass
and
composition
–
whether
you
see
it
or
not
–
and
they
copied
that
much
.
Oh
,
how
they
copied
it
!
And
extended
it
.
What
they
failed
to
see
was
that
every
major
work
of
the
master
told
a
story
and
laid
bare
the
human
heart
.
Instead
,
they
got
involved
with
‘
design
’
and
became
contemptuous
of
any
painting
or
sculpture
that
told
a
story
–
sneering
,
they
dubbed
such
work
‘
literary
’
–
a
dirty
word
.
They
went
all
out
for
abstractions
,
not
deigning
to
paint
or
carve
anything
that
resembled
the
human
world
.
"
Jubal
shrugged
.
"
Abstract
design
is
all
right
–
for
wall
paper
or
linoleum
.
But
art
is
the
process
of
evoking
pity
and
terror
,
which
is
not
abstract
at
all
but
very
human
.
What
the
self
-
styled
modern
artists
are
doing
is
a
sort
of
unemotional
pseudo
-
intellectual
masturbation
?
whereas
creative
art
is
more
like
intercourse
,
in
which
the
artist
must
seduce
–
render
emotional
–
his
audience
,
each
time
.
These
laddies
who
won
’
t
deign
to
do
that
–
and
perhaps
can
’
t
–
of
course
lost
the
public
.
If
they
hadn
’
t
lobbied
for
endless
subsidies
,
they
would
have
starved
or
been
forced
to
go
to
work
long
ago
.
Because
the
ordinary
bloke
will
not
voluntarily
pay
for
‘
art
’
that
leaves
him
unmoved
–
if
he
does
pay
for
it
,
the
money
has
to
be
conned
out
of
him
,
by
taxes
or
such
.
"
"
You
know
,
Jubal
,
I
’
ve
always
wondered
why
I
didn
’
t
give
a
hoot
for
paintings
or
statues
–
but
I
thought
it
was
something
missing
in
me
,
like
color
blindness
.
"
"
Mmm
,
one
does
have
to
learn
to
look
at
art
,
just
as
you
must
know
French
to
read
a
story
printed
in
French
.
But
in
general
it
’
s
up
to
the
artist
to
use
language
that
can
be
understood
,
not
hide
it
in
some
private
code
like
Pepys
and
his
diary
.
Most
of
these
jokers
don
’
t
even
want
to
use
language
you
and
I
know
or
can
learn
?
they
would
rather
sneer
at
us
and
be
smug
,
because
we
‘
fail
’
to
see
what
they
are
driving
at
.
If
indeed
they
are
driving
at
anything
–
obscurity
is
usually
the
refuge
of
incompetence
.
Ben
,
would
you
call
me
an
artist
?
"
"
Huh
?
Well
,
I
’
ve
never
thought
about
it
.
You
write
a
pretty
good
stick
.
"
"
Thank
you
.
‘
Artist
’
is
a
word
I
avoid
for
the
same
reasons
I
hate
to
be
called
‘
Doctor
.
’
But
I
am
an
artist
,
albeit
a
minor
one
.
Admittedly
most
of
my
stuff
is
fit
to
read
only
once
?
and
not
even
once
for
a
busy
person
who
already
knows
the
little
I
have
to
say
.
But
I
am
an
honest
artist
,
because
what
I
write
is
consciously
intended
to
reach
the
customer
–
reach
him
and
affect
him
,
if
possible
with
pity
and
terror
?
or
,
if
not
,
at
least
to
divert
the
tedium
of
his
hours
with
a
chuckle
or
an
odd
idea
.
But
I
am
never
trying
to
hide
it
from
him
in
a
private
language
,
nor
am
I
seeking
the
praise
of
other
writers
for
‘
technique
’
or
other
balderdash
.
I
want
the
praise
of
the
cash
customer
,
given
in
cash
because
I
’
ve
reached
him
–
or
I
don
’
t
want
anything
.
Support
for
the
arts
–
merde
!
A
government
-
supported
artist
is
an
incompetent
whore
!
Damn
it
,
you
punched
one
of
my
buttons
.
Let
me
fill
your
glass
,
and
you
tell
me
what
is
on
your
mind
.
