So many times now, as I look back upon a life of thirty some years, I feel so ashamed of all I’ve done and become. The preceding sentence is the one I’m going to use to begin my book. I’ve…Continue

Nice piece Lauren,

RF Husnik posted a discussionI DREAMED I MARRIED A SOVIET
BY LAUREN HAVESSMy friends, this brief chapter is based upon a series of notes I made years ago. It concerns how life was lived in the U.S.S.R. (which still existed then) at that time. I’d never been much of a history lover, but was “struck” by how gallantly the Soviet people had resisted the Nazi invasion of their nation in the Second World War – especially at Stalingrad – which is renamed Volgograd today. And, being a teenaged girl then, I’d also found their marriage day ceremonies…See More

So many times now, as I look back upon a life of thirty some years, I feel so ashamed of all I’ve done and become. The preceding sentence is the one I’m going to use to begin my book. I’ve returned home now after years of, let’s just say “waywardness,” to my city where apparently all that’s usually impossible, and where all that’s normally considered sensational, is more or less viewed as commonplace - by those who understand what’s really going on here at least. I’m Lauren…See More

In my last posting, I confided that not long ago I’d spoken via telephone with three people: Lauren Havess, Valerie Danns, and R.F. Husnik. And I told you what, of any (in my opinion) importance had been exchanged in my conversations with Lauren and Valerie. Today I shall relate what occurred as a result of my contacting R.F. Husnik. To my surprise, I was actually able to persuade RFH to visit our city! But I wasn’t able to convince him to relocate to it. And he…See More
RF Husnik posted a discussionWORDS FROM RASHON LEYF
F. John Surells and myself have nearly completed a book to be entitled "The Students Of The Highway." Most of it was written by us, but there are contributions from others; and the book includes four poems. As far as I know, this will be the second book "penned" by members of what we refer to as our "artistic enclave." And while I'm certain this book is a good literary effort, it's obviously not a "The Same Tapes," which is, in my opinion, a landmark effort. And the term "students of…See More
RF Husnik posted a discussionRAMBLINGS FROM RALPH HAWK
So many times, late at night, I must pay a stipend to negate, or is it a ransom to free myself from sleep’s elusiveness? And then I can’t find the transference of all that’s real to all that’s not. Yet, I’m real. And please, don’t question my realness. But you may wish to know my reality of origin. And undoubtedly, it’s not the same as yours. Yes, I’ll wager you’re a resident of Earth One; and I am too – now. And it’s been fifty four years since I was sent here from my reality of…See More
RF Husnik posted a discussionA LETTER TO RALPH FROM PARIS
Dear Ralph: Thanks for your message telling me that Amber and Renni have been found. I'm glad to hear that both of them were unharmed. I'm going to leave Paris one week from today. I want to come home. I've not told you about this before, but I wasn't being entirely truthful when, on our prior communications, I related my supposed "well-being" to you. I've met a girl here. She's a woman really, of course. And she's a mysterious woman. Actually, she's probably best…See More
RF Husnik posted a discussionNON-REPENTANT DIRECT WORDS
Here’s a second installment of what let’s term “non-repentant direct words.” And they’ve earned that title, I feel, simply because their author continues his refusal to accept as gospel all supposed “truths” and “absolutes” concerning written prose. And the moniker “direct words” is theirs for two reasons. First, they’re written under their author’s true identity – of course his “normal” procedure is the use of pseudonyms; and second, they’re perhaps somewhat abrupt in both…See More
RF Husnik posted a discussionEXPLANATIONS FROM RALPH
I want to apologize to readers of the various "pieces" I've previously, and am now currently posting on what for me is still a relatively new communication medium. I'm afraid my "posts" haven't exactly been executed with proper chronological methodology, and I know they'll continue to appear in a somewhat chaotic fashion. But I'm proud to be living where I am today. I exist now amidst a large group of artistic type…See More
RF Husnik posted a blog postRFH REFUSES TO REPENT
The greatest thing about my snobbishness is that I’ve always been really real! And my modesty has always overwhelmed almost everyone! And if you thought it was time for me to make personal statements, your wish has been granted. And wherever I’ve been, and whatever I’ve done, has always, in my mind at least, been for the hopeful good of mankind. But chaos usually follows one wherever one goes, and in whatever one does. Still, in regard to literary composition,…See More

Since I last spoke to you, I've been under a constant barrage of criticism and negativity. And if that statement seems to beg your sympathy, believe me it's real purpose is only the proclamation of life as I find it today; that is, how I am living now with those who are my artistic comrades and equals here on the north bank of our city's river.
And I have mammoth responsiblities here. I'm the de facto leader of a large (and still growing) entourage of creative minded…
