i wish to propose the constitution of a village
a village without boundaries, the utopian ideal
a village without judgments, a village which is not
a village, or at least cannot be said to be, a village
in this village, we would live, but not living for or to
something, not living in life, simply living
it would be a village of children, acting for the newness,
acting for what was never there, what never can be
not to apply interpretations, not to develop characters
permanent expression of nothingness, a deeper life
it is seen that i act and i move, and it is understood
that i act to act, and move to move, and am seen to be seen,
and i am nowhere in the acts, movements or observations
and that we are nowhere together, in our village
what is expressed cannot be predicted
we are mediators, not statisticians
we will touch unexpectedly and rediscover electricity
we will communicate new modes of communication
travel worlds within worlds
our village will grow until it is formless
villagers walk away from the world and
find themselves in the village
the world cannot see the village, only the villagers
and they have lost sight of the world
