'the kingdom of heaven is within you' / 'I'd like to thank everybody for comin'... rilly'

anais is in new york with the vareses (that is when she's not going up to the savoy ballroom in harlem and dancing til 6am). francis kilvert is visiting one of dr.fox's new improved lunatic asylums near bristol when someone calls out his name and is bundled away. malcolm lowry (who has just been served with an eviction notice) is thinking about the economics of being a writer,

'naturally, one didn't expect to live on one's income, though between books, that can become necessary, because if you live on the advance from your next book you're eating yourself as the french say, literally, and if you get another job you won't write the book.'

sir thomas browne is writing on urn burial and the earth 'in the deep discovery of the subterranean world, a shallow part would satisfie some enquirers...' he explains in a footnote  that according to tradition adam was made out of dust from the four quarters of the earth (hence the four letters of his name - but the explanation is in greek so horsemouth cannot follow him further). 

you see what horsemouth is doing here? it's a season ending montage. 

in about an hour  horsemouth goes to work (he will walk in (virtuous boy) but for now he's just drinking the morning coffee. last night he finished off true detective (again - the eternal recurrence of the dvd, life a flattened silver circle). in the day he went out onto the island to do his shopping but he couldn't face the queues at the checkout so he went off mudlarking instead - the tide was low - it was a good haul. he then cooked pasta and kidney beans (and tomatoes and peppers and red onions, pesto and a little chilli). the first season ends out with what horsemouth has discovered is the 13th floor elevators song 'the kingdom of heaven is within you'  - in the great king james bible tradition of mistranslation and excessive concretisation - jesus's 'fuck you'  to the pharisees becomes the alibi of every DIY bargain basement satanist - as the 13th floor elevators do here on a muddy country 6/8.

he's been taken up with judee sill (the kiss) as well, who's also fond of biblical imagery - as is horsemouth despite (or perhaps because of) the fact that he was raised agnostic.
