Code:It’s like "it’s like"’s become a stand-in star for “uhh” and “Umm” No longer that most interesting of prepositions, where two things unalike become yoked together in the violence of imagination, like ideas being yoked by the violence of imagination It’s like a tenor showing off his lungs without a single note It’s like a vehicle driving on no ground (I find no ground for this tenor to drive his vehicle) It’s like a metaphor that never dies because it’s never born and yet the ghost somehow made it out alive It’s like John Cage’s 4′33″ or rather it’s like the audience and their waning patience It’s like the pause between the lightning and the blunderbussing thunder It’s like a bookmark placed before the finished chapter in the novel of the mind It’s like the cherubim that stops before the Door of God Und der Cherub steht vor || Gott …and never goes on in.
