Daniel's Journal

by Daniel Charles Thomas

[--Hidden House Absolute i.e. UNCUT VERSIONS--]

3 & 4 October 2001.


Verbatim from the mini-steno notebook Office Line Scribe -- boring, for hidden house fanatics ONLYonly

Another afternoon in the park

October begins and I watch two

coppers frisking vagos on the grass

wondering how far I must go to seed

before they begin to go after me.

Ah, the secrets of bourgeois life

& success. There's a lot of other

people they don't touch -- all of us

clean and smiling. Throw one in

the back of a truck, let the

other go. I. I am going

to the library. But first sit

scribbling on the iron bench nearest

the corner of 4th & G. A few

minutes ago Carlos told me in response

to my question that probably the person

who lived in that house I looked at


[PAGE TURN IN NOTEBOOK]

yesterday was a midwife named

Margareta. I got a good vibe

from his words. Too bad the house

is an utter dump. Well, once

around the park and maybe another

block to look at it again. Or

not; just sit here on the bench to

further enjoy this beautiful afternoon.

_______________ The regular security

guy is nearby now, watching the corner

(and me?). Tere and I watched him

close the playground last night. I've

seen him around here for months.

Itching to move on, I get

up to walk.

Mexico will freeze terrorist

bank accounts and change the

financial laws to make it harder

for such accounts to operate

" the terrorist acts brought to bear in the U.S.

have seriously aff impacted affairs

in Mexico "

" we run the risk as Mexicans

that our territory will be

used ...or attack to plan attacks,

or be attacked "

more reading in the library -- I limit myself to writing about certain places -- those which I don't have engraved on my mind already like Ranas and Tolulquilla Querertaro and Cuetzalan Puebla and Ixtlan del Rio Nayarit and Morelia and
