Ghost

Hello? I have been having some time off. I have been concentrating more on my addiction to booze and killing my brain. Writing is hard when you feel like 100 pounds of shit. I have nothing to say any more. The times between being hungover, being at work and being drunk again are a very narrow window with which to write anything. Plus...plus nothing. Issue 10 of Lucida Console will be out by the end of the year. Live free cunts.


Supernatural Big Hitters
By Slater Wilcox

Fuck that shitty TV show “SUPERNATURAL”, to me supernatural means DEMONS flying into your bedroom at midnight to TOUCH YOU UP and make you scream for MORE. To me, supernatural means sitting in a graveyard until a HELLHOUND humps your FACE and shoots ectoplasmic dog spunk out your EYEBALLS. To me, supernatural means becoming so fed up with real life that only make believe can take your mind off of the ambivalence you feel towards mankind. People can find out just about anything with the touch of a few buttons, the world is being narrowed down and condensed. However, sometimes…weird thoughts come creeping into your mind when you’re all by yourself in the middle of a dark forest with no motherfuckin’ 3G. You start to panic. “What if The X Files was right all along?! Is The Truth out here?! I fuckin’ hope not!” You close your eyes but your thoughts are much darker than the night could ever be. Screaming Skulls, Egyptian Curses, the beady eye of a Crow, Death cults, Psychic Visions of Doom…Is that a common elder tree you’re leaning against, trying to get your breath back? The same common elder that Judas hanged himself on? The same common elder associated with devil worship and witchcraft? God’s sake don’t burn it for warmth – Satan will appear! Is that a man pouding his way towards you through the murkiness? Or is it a hallucination? Bite the bullet, baby, this shit’s all in your mind. Mystery is cool. Sometimes the World is too real for me, at least back in the day we had Satan to blame, nowadays we all know that it’s human beings that are completely fucked. So leave your skepticism and scientific rationale at the door, here’s my all time favourite supernatural bullshittery: X files up your ASS.

Black Mass
A magical ceremony, an inversion or parody of the Catholic Mass for the purpose of making fun of God and worshipping the Devil; a rite that was said to involve human sacrifice as well as blasphemy and obscenity of horrific proportions. You won’t be eating bread and drinking wine at this fucked up Eucharist; instead how about a cum-covered wafer washed down with a skullful of virgin’s piss? Sounds fun? Then stick around for the roasted flesh canapés and frenzied buggery orgy. Like after dinner games, do you like fucking After Eights? Then try reading the Bible backwards with a mouthful of burnt baby mixed with the priest’s poo. Feeling a little woozy, too much partying? Pussy.
Dance of Death
An allegorical attitude to the final crisis in human life – Death as a grotesque skeleton leading all men and women to the inevitable grave, a theme popular in Medieval art. Death is having the best dance party and you’re all invited – even the dickheads and racists. Tough shit if you don’t wanna go to Death’s party – you’re all coming along whether you like dancing or not, and tomorrow, for once, we won’t be hungover – we’ll be dead.
Crowley, Aleister
Magician, occult practitioner, author and poet, mountaineer, drug addict, ambisexual athlete, and devout POOMAN. A guy after my own heart – the guy was obsessed with shit. At his Abbey of Thelema on Sicily he set up a place to practice his love of pooh, thinly disguised as a centre for occultist study. While there, he and his followers got up to all sorts of rotten business, here’s little extract from his biography recounting a normal evening in the abbey: “She called his bluff and demanded the ‘Eucharist’ – that Crowley should eat her excrement which lay on the consecrated plate on the altar. Crowley finally obeyed: “My mouth burned, my throat choked, my belly retched, my blood fled wither who knows and my skin sweated. She stood above me hideous in contempt…” All this, in a word, I am a coward and a liar.” Later in the chapter you learn that Crowley and his High Priestess have a child on the Island and call it “Poupee”.

Demonology
I have decided to name my niece and nephew Ashtaroth and Baphomet. My neice, Ashtaroth is the great nature Goddess of love and fruitfulness, also the “most impure and revolting being that can be imagined”. My nephew Baphomet AKA pooh boy, is the source and creator of evil; the satanic billy goat – he likes to wipe his ditry pooh bum on sofas. Truly demonic. Demons don’t exist but humans do.

Deja Vu
I feel like I’ve been living the same life for 28 years now. Shit upon shit upon shit upon shit. Déjà vu’s aren’t “out of the ordinary” it’s just the way life is – a snake made of turds eating itself endlessly. Where does it begin? Where does it end? Who cares – it’s all made of shit.

Vampires
Bram Stoker’s Dracula was THE SHIT. I remember I kept having nightmares after reading it and I’d quite often waking up screaming in the night. It got inside my psyche and made my brain squirm like a toad all night long. I truly believe it to be a powerful book. I liked the Francis Ford Copolla film version of the book when that girl puked about 20 pints of blood into a man’s face but it was slightly over the top and disgusting. Other than that they’re pretty goofy. They remind me of cats because they’re self centered and don’t give a shit about anything and I think they are vain poo-poo heads. Don’t suck my blood,suck my dick. However, Buffy the Vampire Slayer entertained me through those bleak teen years and kept my mind off suicide. I appreciate vampires for that, thanks suckers.

Nymph
From Wikipedia: A nymph in Greek mythology and in Latin mythology is a minor female nature deity babe typically associated with a particular location or landform, they are double barreled fuck shotguns ready to blow your face off with pump-action sexiness. There are 5 different types of nymphs, Celestial Nymphs (far-out space nymphs), Water Nymphs (splashy splashy cum guzzlers), Land Nymphs, Plant Nymphs and Underworld Nymphs and I’d fuck ‘em all. Different from goddesses, nymphs are generally regarded as divine spirits who animate nature by giving it an uncontrollable hard on, and are usually depicted as beautiful, young nubile maidens who love to dance and sing and threaten men with nunchucks. They are believed to dwell in mountains and groves, by springs and rivers, and also in trees and in valleys and cool grottoes where they are almost always totally nude and have excellently trimmed bushes. Definitely an old world myth made up by some randy Greek but I still hold out hope that one day, one glorious day in the dreamy future, I’ll meet a nymph and It’ll be magNYMPHicent. Ha!

Necrophilia
Face it, humans will try to fuck you until you die, so if they try to fuck you after you die, who gives a fuck?

Urology

Now, I don’t know much about urology other than that it’s a sick and sordid black art practiced by perverted professors of piss-drinking. Not really sure what goes on in the urology wings of hospitals but I am willing to hazard a guess as to what it’s all about – trying to predict the future by studying a person’s piss. Piss divination if you will.

Desperate Living

Every time I go back home I have a sense of having not done anything with my life, which is partially true. Like Henry Miller once said, we'd all be better off if home just existed like a picture postcard in the back of our minds which we shouldn't be tempted to go back to. I regularly go back to Plymouth and the area of North Cornwall I grew up in. I normally end up walking around by myself and every corner I turn invokes a different memory and an awful feeling. A feeling of regret and emptiness. I need to move on. Anyway, I did one last trip around Plymouth on a wretchedly hungover Sunday morning in January and visited all the places around Plymouth Hoe which ever meant anything to me in years gone by. I took a "trip down memory lane" and ended up feeling suicidal. It was horrible.
Plymouth Hoe: An empty carrier bag blowing towards the camera. No one else is around and there was a fierce wind.. Sir Frances Drake was bowling up here when the Spanish Armada invaded in the 1600's. I learnt to Rollerblade up here in the early 90's. My mum bought me my Rollerblades from the free ads; they were white leather with green wheels, they were obviously made for girls and I don't want to think about it any more.

Plymouth Dome: I never knew what was in here and then it shut down. It's been shut down since about 2000 and nothings been done with it. Every time I look it I feel like it's 1993 and I've just gone to see Jurassic Park with my dad and sister. I guess it reminds me of the foyer in Jurassic park where the skeletons of the dinosaurs are hanging from the ceiling. I hate this place. It makes me feel old and sad, like my youth is dead and the future is a derelict building with no plans of regeneration

War memorial: Skated here when I was 15. I remember a scene in Flatspot skate video happening here. An old Plymouthian lady, a relic from WWII Plymouth tells the guys skating, "I used to be a nurse...one little slip and you'll be paralysed for life...silly...silly boys". That was filmed about 1995. Why am I here thinking about it?

I met a girl on a date here last year. We sat in that shelter for about two hours and talked. The view overlooks Plymouth Sound. We had a two hour conversation and I think I was in love. I hold this shelter in fond memory. Later on we walked along the Hoe in the dark, there was no one around, it was windy as it always is, but we felt safe. The romance was doomed but sometimes I walk past here and think, "things happen in places that no one will ever know."

I had never seen this before but I like it. It's Poseidon stabbing some wretched sea beast with the blunt end of his trident. What a horrid way to die.

I once spent a night with a girl in the block of housing at the end of the Holiday Inn. She occupied the top floor window. She's gone back to Sweden now. Nothing happened that night I spent with her. I didn't feel in a sexual mood and instead we played crystal healing with her vast crystal collection. In the morning I woke up with an erection but quickly dismissed it. I gave her my tie-dyed shirt and we spent the day drinking on the hoe. I never saw her again.

I hate looking up this street in this direction. The hollow white light at the brow of the hill makes me think it's 1999. People are into nu-metal and I am trying to skate, but I suck. But if I look for long enough I realise that everyone I grew up with has moved away and probably never even listen to Limp Bizkit anymore and I'm here by myself.

For me this sums up Plymouth: a cracked pavement of faded pink and grey paving slabs from the post war reconstruction of the city. It's sad and endearing. It makes me want to drink and see my firends. I used to skate down these pavements and slam on my face every time I reached a section like this. So many pointless memories. I wish I could erase them.

I've walked down here hundreds of times but I've never been happy.

A reflection of the Civic Centre. Lots of this that I don't wish to recall happened in the shadow of this buildng. How morose.

I used to skate here all the time. A set of two steps outside the magistrates court. Where's everybody now? Dead? No, shopping in Drake's Circus shopping centre or at home. The play grounds of my youth are desolate wastelands and I'm hungover.

The train ride back to Exeter. My favourite view in Plymouth - the Plym Estuary at twilight. Lovely.

Bill and Ted were having an excellent adventure

Keanu Reeves 
Actor, Producer, Nymphomaniac
1961 - 2008

The Bi-o:
Keanu Fizzy Prince Reeves was born in 1969, just off the side of the main stage at Woodstock where his parents were working as full-time crusty fuck-ups. At the time his mother, Wizardsleeves Reeves, was experiencing a hellfire trip on brown acid and wasn't sure if she'd just given birth or if she'd just hallucinated it. She was later quoted saying, "Just as Jimi Hendrox started jamming out some bona fide riffage I had the unpleasant sensation that I'd just dropped my guts but then I felt something clawing at my leg...I slowly looked down and there was a fuckin' blood soaked gremlin shrieking at my feet! I nearly lost my shit...I had no idea that I was pregnant with Keanu." Many have speculated that it was this early rocking and rolling experience that had a major impact on Keanu, who later went on to play bass guitar in a band very few people cared about.

His childhood years were a whirlwind of glue-sniffing and cheap pussy. At his kindergarden in Toronto he would often be seen doing chin-ups on the monkey bars whilst the rest of his classmates drank warm milk and played stink finger. Many of his teachers struggled with his rockstar persona and letters home would become a normal part of the Reeves household. In the final year of junior high he would keep his Ray-Bans on in the classroom and would proclaim education to be "jerk-off bullshit for dorks". It was this appetite for drama that inspired him thumb it down to California and "make it big" in Hollywood aged only 12. He vowed never to go back to Toronto, saying he'd wasted too much time there already.

However, life in Hollywood wasn't easy for Reeves and he quickly learnt that in order to make it BIG, first you had to make it BI. Amazingly it was his natural skill at turning tricks that led to his first big break: a lead role along side Rivers Phoenix in the movie My Own Private Idaho which documented the lives of two young hustlers in LA, gettin' laid just to survive -a theme prevalent in almost all of Reeves' films to date. This lucky break, which came off the back of a chance meeting in a bathroom stall, led to Reeves coining the well known Hollywood phrase, "It's not who you know, it's who you blow."

After this surprising smash hit, box-office-big-boy Keanu's life became a non-stop roller coaster ride of "excellent adventures" and "bogus journeys". For every crowd pleasing Point Break there came a cinematic shitstorm like Johnny Mnemonic. Disillusioned with show business Reeves decided to become your "Average Joe"; much to the disarray of his loyal fans who were craving more of his studly manner. Not to be dissuaded by any man, he got an office job, a small apartment and shed his most famous asset - that rock star ego. He settled his new life but soon enough he was back at his weird old way, getting up to no-good punk-rock shit. Growing tired with his 9-5 life he soon found escape in the internet and developed an unhealthy interest in hacking. Before long he was rubbing people up the wrong way and eventually got involved in some fuckin' crazy computer bullshit which lead to his biggest box office hit to date - a documentary of his attempts to lead the life of an "Average Joe" between the years 1999 and 2003 called The Matrix.

The Romance and further bio.
Reeves is a unashamed whore and has had an incredible amount of relationships, been linked to bizarre occultist sex orgies and has had more STDs than James Bond and Jim Morrison combined. However, the most shockingly fact about Reeves' love-life is the brevity of his relationships - most lasting for just an hour and a half. His longest and most memorable relationship occurred in 1989 on the set of Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure. Alex Winters (Bill) and Reeves were literally seeing double when they met up with "the babes" in Ye Olde England whilst on their famous time-travelling pussy binge. Reeves and Winters were so taken with the pair of princesses that they by-passed all formalities and decided to fucking kidnap them! Not before singing them Poison's Every Rose Has It's Thorn of course ...and who says romance is dead! Sadly for Reeves, the pair only stuck together until 1991, when Bill and Ted's Bogus Journey was filmed. The "babe" Fraizer Bane, later claimed that Keanu had never actually bothered to learn her real name, and moreover she was becoming increasingly uncomfortable with her role in Wlyd Stallyns as "keyboard babe". The relationship was doomed and they split up just after post production. The wild plains of romance were desolate for many years, with only Lori Petty from Point Break and Carrie-Anne Moss from The Matrix to satiate Reeves' thirst for hard fucking. It was during this bleak time in his life when he was snapped by paparazzi mongoloids trying to enjoy a sandwich on a park bench by himself which led to an internet meme called "Sad Keanu" which poked fun of his inability to sustain a long and meaningful relationships. Many people ignored the fact that Reeves had revolutionised the internet during the Average Joe period (1999-2003) of his life and used the medium to repeatedly stab him in the back...and in the heart.

Fed up with the persona he had created for himself, he decided to time travel back to India, 1928 in search of some class A, untainted pussy. Whilst trekking though the mountains of Karakoram he touched some fragments of ancient Alien shit and was reborn Klaatu. In turn, another Keanu Reeves documentary was born - The Day the Earth Stood Still. It was during this time that he met his true love - Jennifer Connelly. The documentary culminated with Reeves' making the biggest decision of his life - eat Jennifer Connnelly's pussy, or die. Luckily for us, Reeves chose to die. He saved mankind from itself and now exists as a thin layer of gas surrounding Planet Earth.

HELL

Standing in a blackened forest which stretches for as far as the eye can see, I have the strange sensation that I'm suddenly going to fly off somewhere and do something awful. Next thing I've shot off across the dark tree tops at a terrible speed. Taking an abrupt dive straight into the jagged mouth of a cave and winding far down deep into the Earth I swiftly arrive at the gates of hell. Once there, I know what I have to do - open these Gaddamned gates and release something good and shitty on the generation of swine inhabiting the Planet. I am a little apprehensive and decide to only open them for an hour. Using my incredibly powerful psychic brain I manage to open the hell portal; I feel horrified and excited and I know this is very naughty. Out of the reddish brown rock a grim little demon face appears and I start to feel like shitting myself - there is the sense of something unfeeling and massively violent behind me. Whipping around like maddened dog, I am faced with a naked Anne Hathaway with a ugly looking strap-on dildo dangling between her legs. She has mean, sexy eyes but I feel no fear; just a sexually confused awkwardness, like a dumb teenager. Those mean, sexy eyes shoot straight past me and fix upon the half-crazed, fully nude demon-girl who has also appeared in the hot, dusty cave. Demon Anne Hathaway wastes no time and is soon pumping the Demon girl senseless with her swarthy strap-on and although the sex is vicious and Satanic, the tenderness between the two is obvious. The Demon girl asks to reduce the size of the strap-on and Anne does so immediately, psychotelekenetically. The two writhe on the ground in ecstasy and the cave becomes unbearably hot with sticky heat, sweat and pure Satanic lust - salt stings my eyes but I can't turn away, yet at no point do I feel I can join in. I stand there awkwardly aware of the fact that Demon Anne Hathaway is doing a far better job than I ever could in twenty thousand life times of sexual experience. I am small in both mind and penis. The two Demons pay me no heed, their screams of pleasure of deafening and shrinking me mentally and physically. The strap-on plunges in and out non-stop and it has started glowing red with a furious heat - the Demon girl's orgasm is powerful: a torrent of Demonic juices. They have finished and lay in a panting pile. I start to realise how inconsequential my every action is, life is worthless and I am less than a fart. They start to laugh and vapourise - the portal has been open for an hour and they are vanishing back to their own dimension. I turn away, rest my forehead against the cave wall and start to cry. No one is here now and I am despondent and desperately alone. I paid the price for opening the gates of hell, I have been made to feel utterly non-existent by Anne Hathaway and her strap-on. I have experienced Hell and now I have a long walk home.
