"What's going to happen to you, you have woke up too soon."
So many people I know
or have met
are moving on
leaving this place behind for anything
different.
too many tired trees in Winter
so many snowmen in Spring
Do you believe in a god?
I try to remember that I do
and where life ends
whatever is greater than it begins
a necessary optimism for a trying time?
I'm always looking up
maybe you see me
from that hypothetical heaven(s)
or maybe that's the most selfish thought.
I hope wherever you've gone
there are so many more interesting things to look at
than me
searching the stars for signs
Exit now - Turn around - Two miles ahead on the left.
I hope for everyone's sake that the not-life isn't
a Cracker Barrel
or a Golden Corral.
When I was young
I went to Dallas
and found a place where there are only
4 short miles between
a Six Flags
a Wet 'n' Wild Waterpark
a Ripley's Believe or Not
and a Wax Museum and
I imagine that's where I'll move on to.
For now,
all I can do is remember
(and sometimes try not to)
share a moment of silence with my cat
think of dancing with you
on a slick floor
in only our socks
and of sharing this stage
chomping on scenery.
All I can do is wish
that life was a jellyfish
graceful
and transparent.
All I do lately is make music. I've been spending most nights at "the fortress of solitude" - my friend Ray's music studio - recording the second SuperHouse album. It'll be done by the winter and it will warm your heart in a cold cold time. I've been working too, but I try not to remember those times.
I quit drinking alcohol and eating red meat. I have a strong drive to be healthier before I am older.
Do you know what I enjoy? There's this application for Facebook called Compare People, in which you are allowed to compare your friends and decide who is "braver", who "would make a better father/mother", and who is "more popular" etc, etc. So you can look at a list that tallies the votes and compares you to all of your Facebook friends and lets you know your ranking in each category. It's a somewhat decent judge of what people think of you, and what your most noticeable traits are. Here's my rankings for a couple of categories.
1st - Better Laugh
3rd - Most Likely to Win a Fight
4th - Can Drink More
5th - Better Taste in Music
7th - More Cuddly
30th - More Likely to Succeed
89th - More Attractive
101st - More Organized
112nd - More Reliable
So to sum me up: I am an excellent fighter, a hearty drinker, a joyous laugher, a good DJ, a likely failure, an ugly motherfucker, and a very unreliable person. I love me.
No, I really do.
I fucking love me.
Thanks,
