i am not the arm

i'm disturbed and fascinated by David Lynch's use of creamed corn to represent garmonbozia, the pain and suffering on which Bob feeds in the Twin Peaks series. A secret food crush of mine that ends up revolting if you eat too much of it too frequently, creamed corn is cloying to the point of sickness. Mike demands his garmonbozia from Bob at the end of the series prequel Fire Walk With Me, followed by a horrifying scene of a mouth slowly slurping corn from a spoon. Repulsive and sickening, it underscores Mike's disgust with Bob and the increasing pace of violence, sexual depravity and growing evil he seeks to combat. i need to review Mike's role in the series, but maybe when the deleted scenes from Fire Walk With Me are finally released we can make better sense of Lynch's terrifying world. Go sign the petition and prepare yourself for "the Palmer Family Speaking in Norwegian" "the Log Lady Howling and the moon/her tatoo turns beet red" "Teresa Blackmails Leland" and my favorite, "An Extended Truly Lynchian Scene Above the Convenience Store."
