Seems the Yoke is subjecting the world with some of her conceptual
instructions again.

Take an acorn and sellotape it across your navel.
Add water and light on a daily basis.
Watch an oak tree grow.
(feel free to replace navel with arse - but remember to replace after
defecation)

We could guess, and probably be right.

I did that purposefully once before and the reader didn't get it at
all. I guess it was the way John said it so that even when "larf" is
written we can hear him saying it (with his own voice) that makes it
so very special a creation (definitely art).

Nestle an acorn neatly balanced tween the space between your bollocks
arnd your arse (you may need to be standing on you head on the settee
or something for this piece). Shout "Yoko" 27 times and fall down in a
mock accidental way. Repeat this action until you feel the sky.

Danny

ROTFLMAO!

This is very good Danny. Actually it sounds like a real one,

doesn't it?

Perhaps an alternative ending would be "pretend you are an acorn as
you drink the cup of tea."

Hold an acorn next to your ear and listen to it.
When it speaks to you, write down the things it says.
If after 20 minutes it does not speak, shake it a bit and shout at it
"Are you fucking taking the piss you bastard acorn, or what?"

Repeat this procedure until you begin to feel uncomfortable.

Danny

Or until the men in white coats come to take you away. Smile

Sorry, Danny - the funny ones are much better.
Not easy to do a serious one, is it?

That was a serious one? Who knew!

Here's another instructional poem:

1. Take a condom and put it over your own head.

2. Put yourself on display and call yourself art.

3. Then flush a toilet.

Or he could just put a rubber over his head, tape a sign across his
navel that says, "I'm a dick" and count how many people say, "Yeah. I
know."

Now there's some *real* avante garde conceptual art for you.- Hide quoted text -

The "instructional poem" I had written was directed at the public at
large.  I was pretending write a part of the book Grapefruit.

I someones wonder why John would find such a book appealing.  However
I believe it is because he had a wacky, rebellious sense of humor.
John probably felt many of the poems were absurd, and thought it would
be a larf to see if people would actually do these things.- Hide quoted text -

In many ways you are right in your statements "wondering why John
would like such a book,Yes he Found it Very amusing and was
interrested in seeing if anyone would actually do any of those things-
would ppl just mindelessy follow these instructions-or would ppl have
the intellenge to question them first.,however,practically everything
John did,say,or experimented with conceptually has been taken right
out of context and literally guoted as an Absolute belief with too
much seriousness,take his song "Imagine"Many individuals and the
collective mind of man failed to perceive the real meaning within his
song.Oh how this has been done throughout John's whole life,I am
'aving a larf from all these conceptual jokes,very clever,I got the
Oak tree one,as John would 'ave,makes sense 2 me.not all Conceptual
Art Statements are meant 2 B funny-they R meant 2 make a Statement!
Well Done:)

I think John tried not to take his fame too seriously. He liked to
joke around.

I believe that sometimes when he did an art show, he was really
trying to "push people's buttons" or was testing the limits of how
much he could get away with. I don't believe John took all that stuff
seriously. It was more along the lines of, "Gee, if I tell people to
strip naked and stand on their heads, would they do it? Let me see if
I can get people to do it for a larf."

Post puerile insults online about people more successful than your
entire family tree.
Post them until your personal life is not a study in abject alcoholic
failure.

Too wordy,
Too fluffy
and it doesn't include an acorn in it.

Do we have another "Yoko Ono" Fan in our Midst?

This would be better:

Find a computer that is not in sunlight,
Find a way to send a message on it.
Send a mesage to another person saying "Yoko Ono is shite"
Have a drink.

Guru you seem to be going through a rather strange *psycho analysis*
period whereby the other users of this forum are subjected to your
picking the brians.

Brian who?

Epstein.
The drunken homo.
OW, Danny's role model.

You know, where I'm from (Texas) we can even buy beer in the
grocery stores and there are huge areas full of the stuff...
EVERYWHERE! A lot of people (men and women) drink.

You know, you trolls (you know who you are) if you find out a
little personal information on a poster like "He likes beer" will use
the information against that poster. You do this constantly and it is
sad.

Again, Leo, you don't drink? Sounds like a personal problem to
me.

Now, get back under the bridge! I'm not paying your damn toll for
crossing!
