"Queer" Can't Last, But It Will Always Return

Before I even begin, first by showing a picture that "wont line-up": (Play it again, Sam) "one of the things that 'queer' can refer to: the open mesh of possibilities, gaps, overlaps, dissonances and resonances, lapses and excesses of meaning ..." - Eve Sedwick.

I realized that "queer" (and "queering,") can't last because (1.) there is no monolithic "queer" to last and (2.) "queer" is about, in part, but a rather large part, movement, which takes up (an increasing) speed and then evaporates. BUT, it doesn't go away, per se, it does disperse, but then it also returns. I think there is a connection between Nietzsche's concept of the "Eternal Return" and queer. There can be an affirmative in uttering the eternal return of queer.

Turning, and turning to FN: "The question in each and every thing, 'do you want this once more and innumerable times more?' ... how well disposed would you have to become to yourself and to life to crave nothing more fervently than this ultimate confirmation and seal?" (Friedrich Nietzsche, The Gay Science, rumination 341)

YES! I would want nothing more than have "queer(ing)" "return once more and innumerable times more" ... I feel well disposed already to myself and to life to "crave nothing more fervently than this ultimate confirmation and seal ... " of "queer's" eternal return.


A "queer life," however that is to be lived or unlived, done or undone, which should never be decided in advance...

"This life as you now live it and have lived it, you will have to live once more and innumerable times more; and there will be nothing new in it, but every pain and every joy and every thought and sigh and everything immeasurably small or great in your life must return to you -- all in the same succession and sequence -- even this spider and this moonlight between the trees, and even this moment and I myself. The eternal hourglass of existence is turned over and over, and you with it, a grain of dust." (Nietzsche)

There is a horriful beauty in that statement by Nietzsche ... an ultimate '"queering" ...
