tone poem
somehow i see christmas trees while listening to this
brightly lit christmas trees / numerous and shiny
glittery
now it’s dark / a large pit with only one ladder / it’s broken
then the wars of Rome on a newsreel / a battle scene
clear water / like a gel or an expensive brand of toothpaste
now it’s greenish
it’s amazing what you can see when you close your eyes
and listen to this music
a little kid hiding under a straw manger appears / must be on a farm or something
she’s peeking out from underneath / smiling / mischievous
a crowd of people in the mist / just their heads are visible
an old testament scene / moses coming down
from the mountain excitedly with his stone tablets
the soaring flute / pure freedom
conversation
“The thing is if you threw a tire over, if you went out in the middle of the ocean over the Marianas trench and threw a tire over. That tire would end up in the Marianas Trench, 5 miles deep, down there with all the sub oceanic animals. And if you went down there with a deep underwater submarine sometime and with a flashlight, looked around, you would see a tire. B. F. Goodrich. Bald on one edge.”
“Well, that’s probably not entirely true. At that depth even if the tire was intact you wouldn’t see B. F. Goodrich.”
“Yeah, so what. It doesn’t matter. I’m just sayin - wouldn’t that be weird if you went down there on your super submersible bathyscope and you wanted to see the deepest part of the ocean, the deep deep deepest part of the ocean where all things come to rest and then you find a tire. B. F. Goodrich.”
“Brother, you’re drunk and I’m not James Cameron.”
“I know it. I know I’m probly drunk. It’s like that scene in that movie, the one with John Candy. Know which one I mean? John Candy and what’s his name. The guy with the rabbit ears. Yeah. So . . . I’m sorry.”
“What’s your name?”
“John.”
“Seriously?”
“John.”
“My name is John too.”
“Well how do you do, John too. Ha ha ha ha ha. Ha ha ha. That part when their car burned up. Ha ha ha ha ha ha.”

James Cameron was in my dream once. We were working on a project in his studio. It was this massive sci fi thing with glass covering one whole side and kind of a wave roof. The studio I mean, not the movie. I don’t remember what the movie was about.
I mention that just because I did write a Sci Fi movie once. It was a trilogy. Maybe that’s what we were working on. I don’t remember.
The name of the movie was ‘Oah Kanah’, that being the names of the two principal characters and the carriers of the plot. Oah and Kanah are alien spies from a planet far far away whose sun is supernoving. They need a new planet.
Unfortunately, or fortunately, depending on which side you are on Oah and Kanah have completely forgotten what their mission is on account of the interstellar space travel and the shock of taking on a human body. They feel that there is something important to do in life but they can’t remember what it is.
When they ‘accidentally’ meet at a restaurant in South Beach (it was bound to happen), Oa is a food server and Kanah is driving a sporty car and wearing trendy clothes. They instantly fall in love and have sex. Well not there in the restaurant but later on in their dating. The psychic energy released with their love making reconnects them to who they actually are and what they’re supposed to be doing.
They get in touch with the mother planet right away and send a glowing report of planet earth. Everything would be very suitable here. The dominant species is destructive and unstable. Recommend removal.
Meanwhile the FBI is on their trail. The FBI and the CIA and the NSA and the Air Force and the Marines. They know there was an incursion from outer space carrying life forms.
While the security agencies are chasing around Oah and Kanah, they are busy collecting evidence for their report. Lot’s of evidence concerning the violent and erratic behavior of the dominant species. That would of course be humans.
So, skipping ahead a few chapters, the invasion fleet arrives, Oah and Kanah get out of town just in time in their Aston Martin and a huge war begins. Start of the second movie, earth is peaceful, but a closer look reveals that there are aliens everywhere, not a human to be seen. Well there’s a few scattered around doing menial labor. Know what I mean?
Yes the aliens have taken over and humans, the few who remain, are basically enslaved. Oah and Kanah, being heroes of the culture, celebrate the Festival of Human every year where they take their human bodies and commemorate the two things they loved most about humans - farming and sex.
From there it goes where Oah and Kanah actually birth a human baby in their celebratory ritual and eventually give birth to a new humanity who eventually rise up and throw off their oppressors (third movie in the trilogy).
Everything sort of goes back to how it was at the beginning of the first movie. Oah and Kanah have become mythic, sort of deities and people (humans) take pride in them and copy their style, how they are represented in popular culture. The Kanah haircut, the Oah dress how it falls across the body like a ancient Greek robe.
Everything changes and then becomes what it was before is sort of the takeaway, atleast for me. I guess I couldn’t convince James Cameron to give it a shot in the dream. It would of cost a hundred million dollars. He doesn’t even know who I am.
