    my


    GOD


    You did not just defile my thread with this... this... 70's MUCK.


    NO! I deFY you!


    And if it gets stuck in my head all day I'll... I'll... I don't know what I'll do.


    But you won't like it.

    :p

  • What did you want the words to "Ring My Bell" or perhaps "Knock On Wood" ? Or both at the same time? :p

    :) Congrats on your 200 post! Did I read that correctly?
    Who ever you are you'll always be a star in my heart.
    I love how your words flow along with my soul.
    Don't you worry about what others don't know. You're
    so hot that you're on fire and all the world is in the cool
    season just to figure.

    :) As far as inspiration well let's put it this way, many good
    things have happened over the month. Many positive.
    So much so winter is trying to keep up with me by snowing
    in my land today-October! Think positive, look forward to
    the holy months, only goodness prevails. Don't be afraid,
    try, try, try, don't give up! Set a goal, don't stop until you
    reach it. That is success.
    Much love and lots of flavor.
    AmaT.:)

    We never officially dated, no. People asked us when we were getting hitched, married, tying the knot, and we would laugh and tell them "Tomorrow. How did you know?" I wasn't strong enough to grab tomorrow by her jaunty pony tailed hair and pull her into today. So... I let her stray.


    i got rid of the pony tail....

    So this one was written quite awhile back and was originally going to be called 90210, because it reminded me of an poem if it were to be (god forbid) produced by Aaron Spelling. No offense to you party of five, saved by the bell, 90210 watching folk out there... but seriously. WHY? I don't know.

    To be honest, I have no place for television. I love movies, for certain, but TV sucks the lifeblood out of me. I have been TV free with 2 exceptions for 6 months now. I don't miss it one bit. Read a book, watch a good movie, have a conversation for crying out loud. Reality TV is a sure sign that if the apocalypse isn't upon is... it should be.

    But enough of my preachy mouth. Here is a piece that was once 90210 and is now...


    CALIFORNIA/over it

    In the headlights
    His eyes were wicker gold.
    She drove with a hurry,
    With a vengeance,
    And then with grief.
    The radio signaled 10:03 p.m.
    It was the loss of love
    And the loss of life
    As the song sang the same for the two;
    Her brake lights shone
    Rays of blood in the filtered slivers of moonshine.
    Her sliding building in intensity,
    She realized the mistake she made.
    The screech came from underneath
    As her car cried out in desperation;
    The art of the motionless mime
    Reached a level of impossibility distant enough that
    She reached for it,
    Her hand grasping at the ricochet of her headlights
    Detailing a forest she would try forever to forget.
    There was an explosive sound
    As her car jumped and sank in the rear.
    Her headlights blew out.
    She spun in the gravel like a dead flashlight
    And slowed to a rather off tilt stop.
    Still gritting her teeth,
    She stepped out,
    Bleeding from her left knee,
    Tinting the dirt a gritty black
    In the offset refraction of the domelit interior.
    Dazed,
    She touched the stillness that surrounded her
    And was shocked enough that she flinched,
    Pulled back,
    Turning away from the disquieting silence
    And the settling dust...
    As an afterthought she shut her door
    Thinking of her poor wasted battery.
    She limped over to his body
    Now shadowed red
    In the dim watching of her parking lights.
    Looking him over she sniffled a bit.
    A blood mixed tear landed unceremoniously
    And forgotten
    On his blue green and black plaid flannel.
    He was unconscious,
    Living shallow,
    But warm enough.
    About facing she stumbled a bit and began to walk
    Heading in an easterly direction.
    After about a quarter of a mile
    She felt a bit chilly
    And her thumb cut a silhouette in the night sky.
    Her ragged ponytail bounced
    From shoulder to shoulder
    As she faded into the haze.
    In the distance
    Sirens wailed tonelessly,
    And outside
    The temperature was a cool
    56? Fahrenheit.

    and because of God's blessing that is all i remember.

    Never did the green, I'm weird enough, don't you think? I tried it, I don't enjoy having my paranoia HEIGHTENED for me, HA, thanks. I don't need THAT, no sir. And the altitude only works in my favor.

    I don't know radar, jeremy, all of you. I don't know. My heart aches these days. I have had dreams of a massive world war since I was 12. I had dreams of planes crashing into skyscrapers for 5 years before the WTC incident. I have dreams of Denver being leveled by tornadoes sometime in the next 10 - 20 years. I have dreams of the aftermath of the largest nuclear holocaust in existence.

    I have dreamed that God has talked to me in a rainforest

    Seta said =

    "May the voice reach the gods. May their halls shake with the cobwebbed neglect that is felt. May their pride bring them home. May their wounds allow them to return.

    My wings, silver.

    I’ve never noticed."

    my hands they shiver and tremble in the snow......

    I can't help but notice that your sig has gotten a little fruit flavored sucky-sucky my crotch is somewhat tighter now.

    I distinctly said "No misbehaving!" before I left. I blame seta for your cherry-filled naughtiness. No whip cream for you.

    This piece and my muse have left the building. I am a frustrated poet with a big mouth and someone just thought it might be funny to tear off the duct tape and shut me up.





    WELL FUCK YOU EMOTIVE APATHY AND THE IMAGINARIUM YOU STOLE.
    I'LL TAKE YOUR RAGING BULL AND YOUR CHINA SHOP AND REDUCE THEM BOTH TO ASH.
    YOU BELIEVE THAT YOUR LUNGS ARE THE ONLY PAIR TO EMIT STEAM ON A CLOUDLESS WINTER DAY.
    WELL I BRING NEWS THAT EVAPORATION TREATS US ALL.
    MY ROSE IS NONE OF YOUR FUCKING BUSINESS AND MY REEL?
    30FRAMES PER SECOND OF PRIVACY.
    YOUR BELONGING IS AT AN END WITH ME AND I KICK YOU TO THE CURB.
    YOU OWE ME TEN BUCKS, BITCH, AND A NEW PEN.
    I TIRE OF BLEEDING INK AND STAINING THE ENVIRONMENT AROUND ME LIKE SOME CERULEAN SUICIDE.
    I GROW WEARY OF YOUR PRESENCE OVER MY SHOULDER AS IF MY SALT LANDED FLAT AND UNSOWN.
    THESE DAYS MY SHADOW HAS TAKEN FLIGHT IN THE DULL GREY OF THE EVENING RAIN AND THE FLAT LIGHT SO DIFFUSE, SO FEY...
    NO FAIR WARNING TO HEED.
    NO CALL TO EXCLAIM.

    IF MY PHONE RINGS IN FIVE MINUTES I SHALL IGNORE AND SCREEN BUT GIVE ME 12 AND I MIGHT JUST ANSWER.

    THE NOTHINGS WHISPERED BY THE STATIC LINE MY ROMANTIC LENGUA AND DREAMATIC SWAY,
    THESE DAYS GATHERED IN A DARKER CORNER AWAITING NOTICE.
    SOMEHOW THE FUTURE YOU SEETH REMAINS THAT ONE STEP AHEAD AND THAT ONE CORNER TURNED.
    I SEE THE GUTTERTRASH SWIRL IN YOUR WAKE,
    YOUR WHIRLPOOLS AND EDDIES, YOUR MOTIVE FINGERPRINT IN THE BREEZE... I KNOW WHERE YOU'VE BEEN YOU SON OF A BITCH AND I HAVE GROWN QUITE BORED WITH THE FEELING OF TREADING WATER;
    WAITING FOR THAT ONE THING TO OCCUR THAT IS SUPPOSED TO CHANGE MY LIFE FOREVER, SUPPOSED TO VERIFY MY NAME, MAKE ME WHOLE, MAKE ME REAL.

    MY FLICKERING REEL FADES MONOCHROMATIC.

    THE SOUND FIDELITY CRACKLES, METAL EVAPORATIVE FINALLY BREAKING DOWN, MY PULSE CODE MODULATION SIMMERING TO POORLY FILTERED.
    MAN, YOU TALK ABOUT YOUR SIGNAL TO NOISE AND I'LL TELL YOU TO SHUT YOUR MOUTH.
    PROJECTING STATIC LOADED TO THE HILT WITH HIDDEN PULSARS AND OTHER SECRETS OF THE WORLD, I MOUTH IN SILENCE, MY HISSING FADED TO FEATHERS.

    OH THIS TAPE YOU BRING SO SLY SO STUTTERING SO STUCK.




    i hope you enjoy this silence so molasses. i hope these everglades are every bit as self satisfying as you seem to be. i hope your mirror fogs. give me back my plate of custard and get the fuck out. i'll use the straw.


    (the light goes out)

    see you tomorrow kiddo.
