Oah oooh, oah ooooooh, Elton John, Curtains
The
dowager’s ire, if she is to engage in a certain degree of veracity with her
audience, stems from an unexpected reawakening which cannot be satisfied except
through an incidence which might seem as exploitive as what she explored in her
controversial New Mobility Magazine feature in 2004. Slant it one way, and yes,
she can see it through the periscope of an alarmist, regulatory left, and
conservative constraint both. I have already given ample indication that I’ve
been on the inside of a conflict resolution giving me double vision on the
matter of a simulation of an authentic interpersonal relationship borne out of economic
and decentralized necessity. But there is this undertow aspect, the full-blooded
woman rising to the surface even so close to biological twilight, caught in
abeyance, with few outlets other than to restore her functional ability as a
writer. What can she do, as a practical matter, to allow reinvigoration to lead
where it may? She is too old for neon signs on her chest, rather risk adverse
to trading cash for a hustler, and this isn’t really a Fay Wray subliminally
lewd moment where the marionette finger of an outraged gorilla is poking her
breasts, although the 1933 film popularizes stereotypical fears dramatized by
The Birth of a Nation, unless we kill the smart phones utilized in research for
galivanting off with a mind of their own while we try to conserve those
expensive gigabytes.
If
an NPR Georgetown University critic lamented to her listeners that vampirism is
the most overused conceit in literature, creature flicks aren’t far behind,
though concessions must be granted, and one of them is the original Kong is a
classic, with little of that diluting empathy of the later films humanizing the
embattled silverbacks and their close lowland mountain relative. All the
sudden, we’re responsible for their welfare, even as we utilize Caesar as an
implausible didactic warning about taking pharmaceutical miracles too far.
Planet of the Apes, whichever versions we prefer, takes the antagonist victory
to its fantastical extreme: the monster wins, regardless of human ingenuity
attempting to outwit it—but setting that aside for Kong’s magnified context, if
the gorilla as we know it wins, then what? What alternate pathway can be
reasonably construed? I certainly don’t have one for our slower relatives analogous
to our own species afflicted with Downs Syndrome. Unsympathetic as it may seem,
I take issue with conservative pricks to our conscience when it revolves around
mental retardation. The dowager doesn't exactly put Kasich in the wrong, exiting the stage on a high plateau, or dispute Thiessen's heroic clarion call, which bravely pushes back against presumption. The issue is about destitution. If I, as a near spastic genius, am falling into poverty inverse pyramid trap, due to avoidance and obstinacy in part, those necessarily limited by brain damage only have so many niches.
