Night.
I woke this morning with the word “ineradicable” fixed in my head… the word for the sexual drive forever in me. I decided then—but only got to it tonight—to make a red oxide square to say by its very being, “Ineradicable.” I also intended to rectify the inward and down ward spiraling direction of the white at the base of the phallus in last week’s #3i, January 2006. Whatever the original impulse, this is the result. Like it or not, I think it is ineradicable.
