Momus wanders around his home city of Edinburgh, Scotland waffling about bagpipes, heads on stakes, a painting called 'Bling Bling', the new parliament building, sheep and ghost droppings, and how he once stuck his tongue, for erotic thrills, into an Oxfam worker's tea. Finally he asks his mother to rebirth him and she says no.

in photos, you have a cut and paste quality, a tremendous feeling of not belonging in any surrounding. it is similar to those gnome photos. but those have a home in a garden somewhere, and perhaps it is the same with you. edinburgh is your 'home' but is there some place in which you feel like you most belong, a place made from the same stuff as yourself, a place where you might take a photo of yourself and look natural? that photo would really be something.

Alas, I cannot go back to nature now. I fear it's too late to belong anywhere. The best I can do is enjoy not belonging, like my old hero 'the most important man alive', who wrote:

Back to nature, the voyeur will realise
That this is not a sight for his sore eyes

Back to nature
I don't know where to start
Back to nature
