AUTOTRASHPOGRAPHY

In searching for items to use in the composition of Trashpo as a sort of self-hazing incident to prove my worthiness to the DKULT goddess and her court of minions I stumbled on a rotting cardboard box on the back stairway of my two-story porch. It's a box I have carried around for 40-50 years full of my old adolescent and early adulthood writings, as well as some drawings. All from 1967-72.

Originally the box had been carried in a large pasteboard suitcase, a g ift from my grandmother who died long ago at the age of 103. She had used it to carry around the punch-board lotteries she used to sell when she worked for Buffalo Bill's Wild West Show.

Sometime last year I had removed the box with the intention of dumping it in the garbage can out back. I had considered recycling it, but really didn't want my juvenile trash writing to be sitting exposed in a recycling bin on my front sidewalk for any passerby to steal and blackmail me with.

So finally, after delaying the inevitable for many months I once again decided it was time to trash it and, in a moment of brilliant epiphany, no doubt inspired by the radiant emanations of DK and her wizardly courtiers, I realized that box is filled with the utter essence of Trashpo. And thus begins my AUTOTRASHPOGRAPHY
