für Tom Waits ist offenbar ... Tom Waits selbst. Das einzige was Tom Waits' True Confessions (A conversation with himself) besser machen könnte wäre das ganze Ding von ihm gesprochen zu hören, auf kurze Fragen gibt er faszinierende Antworten die besonders in Listenform eine eigene Form von Poesie entwickeln:

Q: What do you wonder about?
A:
1. Do bullets know whom they are intended for?
2. Is there a plug in the bottom of the ocean?
3. What do jockeys say to their horses?
4. How does a newspaper feel about winding up papier-mâché?
5. How does it feel to be a tree by a freeway?
6. Sometimes a violin sounds like a Siamese cat; the first violin strings were made from cat gut- any connection?
7. When is the world going to rear up and scrape us off its back?
8. Will we humans eventually intermarry with robots?
9. Is a diamond just a piece of coal with patience?
10. Did Ella Fitzgerald really break that wine glass with her voice?
Mich hätte nur noch interessiert wieso zum Geier er in dem ansonsten ziemlich beschissenen Domino auftauchte, wohl einer der brillantesten WTF-Momente in jüngster Zeit. Vielleicht fragt er sich das ja irgendwann mal.
