    "Stunned by my own reflection, It's looking back, sees me too clearly and I swore I'd never go there again, Not unlike a friend that politely drags you down,down,down"

    When you see me on the street, yell out "FAVO!!!"

    Foucault's Pendulum by Umberto Eco
    How dark a woe! yet how sublime a hope!
    How silently serene a sea of pride!
    How daring an ambition! yet how deep--
    How fathomless a capacity for love!

    ginsberg's collected poems (1947-1980) just got delivered, i started reading a few last night, you know that feeling where you just don't want to put it down, and every phrase is something mind altering? havn't felt this way about a book in awhile, i'm just sad (sort of) that i'm going away for the weekend and will be leaving it behind :(
