....about 8.30 pm one long and emotionally
charged year ago, "They" opened the big green steel door
to the street in front of the concentration camp
and asking me, a basically destroyed "illegal" human
" We did'nt treat you bad, did we ?" murmured the fat cop
I'd named " 50 cents " as he stole 50 cents from
me in a tobacco deal one day...
tobacco was banned you know...

Yeah Brother,
piasano mio,
ya'll tried your worst an ya
failed horribly... givin' up without
honor or grace.
I never, for a minute believed ya'll would
treat people like that...
preachin' all that "respect" stuff an all
...and I will betcha' theres a special
place in hell waitin'for ya'll,
so I do.

The hero's remain the center.
Thanks.
Ya'll know who you are, so I won't go into
the long list...
but you few,
The girl, those lawyers
and the family in España,
warriors, so they are...
all still fresh and respected
and marked in my fone book
forever...

Still a bit fucked in the head
from all this, but only alittle
fucked
in
the
head...
thats nothing...been thru worse.
There's others though, still a sufferin' the electorialistic
redreric of the left and right...

...62 euros a day per head, for 3 euros
worth of " care and maintenance "...for 40 day's...
Immigrants caught in the web,
are rentable,in the big picture of things
so they are..

Ugly shit brothers and
sisters,
but
that's the way it is...
I've accepted it
more or less
That's that.

The criminals remain free
and their seemingly,
but assumably,
behind that mis justice,
against the immigrant,
that's me...and that's the way it is.

" Do your worst ". I say.
It's been tried before and didn't work.
I am not your typical immigrant...
I bite
have mean lawyers
and know
whom to trust,
after 9 years and 128 day's in ths
weird and beautifully complicated country...
I await your apologies...
in writing works better for me,
if'n yer gettin' my drift...

Other than that, I remain in search of
about 10,000 bucks,( down from 20,000 )
most currencies will work,
just tryin' to get on with it you know...
projects goin on
an all...
There's paintings and accommodations waitin'
...you've never eaten food like this before...
and the girl's are the most beautiful, and as
dangerous as anywhere I have ever been or seen...
A trap waitin' to be tripped
for most of you,
so, you are forewarned...


I remain in love, and have respect for the Gods
that conspired to have me, a poor, but famous artist
sittin' here Free, today, so I do.


...That was a real live fuckin' freak show, so it was...

...The big green door closed behind me.
The end of a tragic Greek comedy...
The sunset was what I remembered of Malaga
back in 2000, bloody red and fire orange...
...I asked this junkie where a brother
could get a taxi around here...?
He pointed up the way,
somewhere up thata way...

All good.
I was free and had all night...
I will never forget that sensation
as long as I live...

Hungarian Bean Soup...
How'd it go my Brother ?

The wise one sends a note
reminding me/us, that all is well,
that the spoon is for all to share,
long handled
so one can share at
a distance,
which makes some folks
more comfortable...
Thanks. Can't wait to see you.

...a few emotions still in raw form.
a few walls that should be torn down,
but only a few...no problem.

I have this information, or "yet another tidbit of top

out in the Level reality. I Know...I know...
Who needs or wants a rebellion ?
" call me what you need or must...but call me..."
sombody said that, I forget who...

I personally find it easier to ask your giveness
than ask your permission. Just works out that way,
we're not the brightest...but we aint biophyssists(?)
either....remember.

So, In the english school today
The kid smiled when I said
" Your a genius Ignacio,
look at you, speakin' english...jo."
little miricles, from little folks...

...We do,
did,
and will continue what the moment
calls for...Ignacio, whom has 8
years on the planet, wrote,
"The green apples are my favorite..."
and now he feels like a genius...
Cool...

We're a freakshow of a bunch...
so we are.

...so, call us what you will,
but call us...hummmmm.

!!!! Barbi hell , discoverd !!!

16.02.08
Uvieu,España

...From my experts comes a bit of disturbing
news... Barbi hell, is Oviedo. The Campillen to be exact
and about 500 meteres from my house. Huh.
No screams
No smoke or flames, nope.
just those gitianos and their kids...

We did not pass thur barbi hell yesterday.
A Sunday in the barrio.
I sanded and primed some 120 meters of molding
and said...
" please, don't sweep that dust around... You want
these to come out perfect, no ? "
4 times...
Oh, the girl's opening a hair salon you know...
No, not my bar, but a hair salon.
There are 102 bars for every 1000 persons in España.
Could hardly go wrong opening
" The mean waiter cafe' ", or no ?
Tommorow I paint the 120 meters of molding
It will be perfect.

Today I offer beer for life and a plac for
the first person to come up with 20 grand.
Name inscribed, and nicely framed,
it will hang behind the bar,
and will be praised much and by many...
"The Mean Waiter" sounds like a great place, or no ?

.... I was out with the dog this afternoon
the brother growled and snorted the whole time
we walk the route of the furs, the giant gold
framed glasses and gold
keeps a drippin' as the sun
reflects off the diamond earrings
as big as a big zitt.... she's gives me a shot to the ribs
as shes a passin' like a truck or a steam liner, thinkin she 's
smaller than she really is. Helieo growls a mean dog growl..
..."It's the dog ,
thats a growlin'...not me." I said,
"... Huff " she huffed... all good.

Bueno.

...the shot to the ribs was'nt as
well placed as those brutal shots
I've taken in the Rastro of those Gitianos
in the Campillin looking for little treasures,
so we knew, that's Helieo & I
this was just a majurja
and like us both
...lost in the 80's
and her own Felini trip...


...Fur and gold and big tacky diamonds,
One, with one's headfones on...
( I've got hit by a bus the other day with my head fones on
a blarin' The Ramones...."Blitzkreg Bop", to be exact,
and of course I'm fine, I'm writin'
and still steppin' on toes
ain't I...? )
...and oblivious to the this beautifully
complicated langauge, Castallaño,
one would think one was in Palm Beach, in
November, " The Season "... another drippy gold and BIG
fur coat scene...or No ?
Seems really universal, multi-use,and transferable. Cool.

All good.

Helieo breaks the ice
gettin' closer and a sniffin'
at that GIGANTIC fur coat
...." AYeeeee..."
Ayyyyyes the majurja...
Helieo's now up on the BIG fur coated
Señora....and she's lookin' at Jess...that's me,
likea " Will you please control your dog..." sorta look...

Helieo. A Westi, and is probably one of the coolest
guy's trapped in the body of a
Westi, a walkin' the face of this O this
smaller an gettin' smaller third planet
from the sun... and that's when he's bein a dick...
a true saint, that smells and pisses on things
but a a Fuckin Saint non the less...

... I'm thinkin' about that weak, amature shot to the ribs...
so I am, and my moral and or
legal responsibilities in this
O this surreal and common situation...

" fffffffsiiiiiiiseeeeeoooooo " I whistle,
the signal...
Helieo looks...
and like the cool brother he is,
trapped in that weird little body
of a Westi, and all,
comes directly to me ,
gives me a sniff ...,
then goes back to the marjua....
...and
piss's on the BIG fur coat, and growlin' a little
Westi growl

...Ok, so I'm alittle ashamed...
but not too much. I can live with it, ya know..
Helieo,
as cool as he is ,
is seemingly un-effected.

One day I will write the book
...On, ... Las Marjuas, La defensa final..."
One day....

This day, a year ago, I was sitting with the Russian and the Bosinan
the Truks and the guy from Moldavia, playin' cards and smoking cigarettes,
in Malaga... The beautiful Costa Del Sol...and we all know where,
and for why, and who's wrath caused all this really...

Today will be a better day than that one,
freedom has a way of being that way, better.

I'm goin' out and walk around, it's early
and the streets of the Mall (oviedo)
will be empty, quiet and mine.
Can't take that away...
Nope.

If you are a regular reader of my blog, you'll notice that the page "Stolen Paintings"
is no more. The woman, and we know who she is, filed a warrant against the page and it's author, and it has reached the courts. the world has freaked, again ...,and I am indignant... like always. This system of justice is biased, and it's looking like they are going to permit this evil woman to walk free with 86 paintings, and 8 years of my life... Ain't the second world but you can see it from here...

One may still help, should one buy a Jess Level Painting in Spain, please ask for a declaration of authenticity and a receipt of the sale,and contact me at Jlevel77@yahoo.com, or contact the National police....This is all we've left, friends. Sorry, crime is crime, and in this case crime is NOT crime...go figure.

Some sad shit brothers and sisters... I'm pretty tired of this injustice. It's getting pretty disgusting, the impunity some people think they posses....with all the mayors of Marbella in jail and a level of accepted corruption at an all time high, their going for the immigrant... again. The Freakshow continues...

The Crazy guy in my barrio...

24.01-08
Uvieu,España

The crazy guy in my barrio
screamed and directed traffic
until the cops came.
They were seemingly kind enough.
He screamed,
"Tu no sabes quien soy"
you don't know who I am
" Yes we do ", the cop said
" ...your the cousin of the
Mayor, and we're taking you home..."

Sometimes, I envy the truly
and visibly nuts.
Innocence and opportunity
and video cameras everywhere
the brother is an actor
and beside the drunken russian
who sings opera infront of the
city hall they could be confused for
the famous, which they are you know...
I know many nut's people, so I do.
Yesterday was a good day...
got autographs from the two artists
and the cop only poked me once
with the billy club before
telling me to
" Move the fuck on..."
in spanish of course...
and that looks like this...

" Vete a mierda ya !!!!"

...gotta love this weird
and beautifully complicated land...
Theres room, when ya'll commin ?.

Jesus was freaked. The lil toothless poodles were pleased with their plan, all was going well ...Death had come out a few times, but to no avail.

" DON'T make me call your Dad, Jesus...", nothing.

chair reading the posters on the wall..." D.A.R.E, drugs are really expensive..." she
giggled. The fat cop behind the desk gave her a look of authority...Susan smiled.
" ahhh-mamn...ahh-, if you'd just come with me ahh-, we a few papers for you to sign
