he will flip the phrase
the theater of impatience.
If if is where you are,
the footstep in the flat above
in a foreign land
or any shimmer the city
sends you
the prompt sounds
of a metropolitan nearness
he will unroll the map of locations.
- from book one of gunslinger by edward dorn which one of us read in hopper's honor today.

we both really like dennis hopper. one of us has cited moments in which dennis hopper can't keep a straight face in movies as her favorite cinematic phenomenon ever.

and today we learned that dennis hopper is both getting divorced and dying. it seems clear he's getting the divorce put through to get his estate in order.

dennis hopper makes art, mostly photographs. i think they are just okay. the other one of us probably has a more nuanced appreciation of them.

we think dennis hopper's favorite foods probably were cheeseburgers, real caeser salads, coque au vin, and pussy.

we will miss dennis hopper not being able to keep a straight face in movies.
