Oh gods, my gods, bring me poison, poison!

I'm going to begin by saying that I would rather write something short, delightful and funny than indulge this accursed and unshakeable daemon of inner turmoil. I'm no Proust or Freud and can no better describe or outline the psychological ravages of sexual jealousy, but of all the imposing ideas orbiting around my mental centre, these thoughts on ( Read more... )

Disclaimers mean serious business.

Would you say my writing is most like a shaky pressure on the shoulders, a sudden disappearance of the jellies in your joints, or is it like a clothesline kick to the creases above your calves?

I read somewhere that a boxer is more liable to go weak in the knees during a prizefight if he had been careless enough to have sex the night before. Drains the pelvis or something and the knee bone's connected to the hip bone. That's why I'm always looking for the K.O. shot. Sticking around to catch a bad one is NOT my fucking style. Fast fast fast.

What is it that you relate with the most? You have my deepest sympathies if you bethink yourself my female counterpart. Come to think of it, you're the kind of feminine complexity I think about reaching with my writing. I wouldn't care to ease the volatility with the likes of you. It sucks to be such a puzzle sometimes.

L-

I received my package and am enjoying all of the contents, but the book the most. I wish I could relate to this post, but it seems to be a situation I am completely unfamiliar with. However, you write in a way that at least gives me a glimmer of the emotions I might feel if I was in your place. In other words, excellent.

As intriguing as you could have planned for it to be down all your most opportunistic pathways.

Trouble is I don't plan or exercise much of my intellect in dealing with lovers, I just DO and let my nature unfurl itself. According to Dante, my place in hell would be in the realm of passionate incontinence, not premeditated malevolence. I feed my heart all it desires and attend to its every whim as if it were a sick child whom I couldn't stand to see desolate unto death. So I make all the moving arrangements to please the aching invalid, who demands this and that, to be sat facing the open windows that reveal to it beautiful, and the cold air rushes in to exacerbate its condition. I will never get over the emotional poverty of my childhood, which has rendered my heart in decrepitude ... so that it must thrive on the blood of others more simple than it.

Do you remember how I said I was enjoying the older entries more? I was wrong. I hope these words have expelled her from your system, at least somewhat.

I have to admit that these newer entries are all pretty much shit. I need to write shorter ones with a lot less stink lines. I'm surprised that a lot more people haven't abandoned ship. I'm particularly glad sostark didn't take the layout she made me when she left. PHEW ( ... )
