_____ ?).::z is for zoo(!)::.__

*************************************************************************

‘The zoo cannot but disappoint. The public purpose of zoos is to offer

visitors the opportunity of looking at animals. Yet nowhere in a zoo can a

stranger encounter the look of an animal. At the most, the animal’s gaze

flickers and passes on. They look sideways. They look blindly beyond.’

John Berger

*************************************************************************

 

Yeah well, I couldn’t think of anything for z and the dictionary didn’t come up with anything

particularly exciting. [You mean the rest was??] Well, I could make some stuff up about zoos but

I find them particularly boring. When the psychiatric unit aranged a trip to the zoo I hated it,

stayed with the nurses in the restuarant! But I did make them take me to the bat cave twice

because it was dark so I felt safe.

I have been since then and I was much more fascinated by the tigers than anything else. I

loved the way they moved so well for their size. So graceful and beautiful, and yet so

dangerous.

Besides it would be a bit like analysis, what do you associate

with this word? I don’t know.

 

So I won’t, I will rebel.
