Is This Victor Rudolph Stuttmeister?

This photo shows the man I believed to be William Oltman Stuttmeister with two women, who may be Alice and Bertha Stuttmeister, thus, this could be their brother, Victor Rudolph Stuttmeister, the brother of William O, who never got married as far as we can tell. Was he gay?

Victor would have the same facial features as his brother and father, unless this long face came down from the Oltmans. My sister, Christine Rosamond, pointed out my unusual features in her autobiography that was never published. When I went to visit Vicki and my aunt Lillian, Lil was shocked when she saw me at the airport. She had not seen me in years, since I put on some weight, and kept saying how much I looked like Vic.

“See! I told you Vic was lying when he kept saying Greg was not his son!” said my surviving sister, who two months ago called me and said; “We’re the only ones left.”

Above is a photo of my brother Mark whom Rosemary pointed out looks allot like William Broderick. Mark tried to push me out of the nest, as did – his father! Only after I became a poet and artist, did this no longer matter to me. Indeed, I welcomed the ostracization, because I was now a member of the Creative Family of Artists and Poets. Christine saw that this was a winning strategy, and followed in my footsteps. Being secretly in love with my childhood friend, Bill Arnold, and more then likely wanting to marry him some day, was another survival tactic that went awry after Victor poisoned his daughter mind, pitted her against her mentor after he moved in on her Art Career.

“I’ve waited a long time for you to get sober so I can destroy you!” said Christine.
“Why would you want to do that?” asked I.
“Because you kept me from Bill.”

Christine had gone to her father after her overnight success looking for an explination as to why she was still fucked up, and her life didn’t work. Captain Victim depicted Rosemary and I as the Abuser in Chief. He tried to shield her, his beloved Little Red Riding Hood!

What I understood is that the MALE LINE in our family has been very weak for generations. Vic and Rosemary did not see their fathers past the age of four. They had no male role model. Victor clung to the marriage certificate of Frederick William Stuttmeister who was married in Berlin. Is this the father of William Oltman Stuttmeister – who may have hated William Broderick who married his daughter Alice? I am confused! There were family feuds and falling outs that cast asunder the Family Story. My brother has disowned his family, as well as his son, who changed his surname to O’Brian. I believe we are looking at a chain reaction to lost information, that may know repair if brought to light. I believe in Genetic Memory, and have been in the role of Family Savior, a role Christine rested from me with disastrous results, because it weakened the Male Line even more, til it was – extinguished!

This is what Vicki wanted to say; “You’re the last one!”. How ironic this is, considering my near-death experience, and the idea the head of Serenity Lane put forth, that I am a walk-on, a soul that came into the body of another. The real possibility the Stuttmeisters were Rosicrucians, makes me wonder about how delicate the information we gather upon the Earth – truly is! And we are sojourners around a campfire in the desert. At night, we read the stars. In the morning, we break camp, and are down the Road of Eternity.

It was Bill who found The Kasidah amongst the rare books in our home on San Sebastion Street. William Arnold was brilliant – beyond his years. A winning strategy for males, is to have good freinds in the world. Bill and I were great friends, because we were what is rare in the world, the loving bond of two creative people. Every summer, Bill and I went camping. It was our other religion.

THE hour is nigh; the waning Queen
walks forth to rule the later night;
Crown’d with the sparkle of a Star,
and throned on orb of ashen light:

The Wolf-tail[1] sweeps the paling East
to leave a deeper gloom behind,
And Dawn uprears her shining head,
sighing with semblance of a wind:

The highlands catch yon Orient gleam,
while purpling still the lowlands lie;
And pearly mists, the morning-pride,
soar incense-like to greet the sky.

The horses neigh, the camels groan,
the torches gleam, the cressets flare;
The town of canvas falls, and man
with din and dint invadeth air:

[1. The False Dawn.]

{p. 10}

The Golden Gates swing right and left;
up springs the Sun with flamy brow;
The dew-cloud melts in gush of light;
brown Earth is bathed in morning-glow.

Slowly they wind athwart the wild,
and while young Day his anthem swells,
Sad falls upon my yearning ear
The tinkling of the camel-bells:
