Ice-age heat wave, can't complain ( Read more... )

frivolous-

a peculiar rain
millions of bodies strong
attack the streets
each drop moves swiftly
as they strike with force

the rain shatters
momentarily it floats upward
an attempt to return
in pieces
to their maker
only to be pulled down to their defeat

my eyes burn.  i want to close them, but then all i see is darkness.
tonight, i want to see light.

Three hours of sleep simply is not enough.  I feel like I am sleeping.  Caught in a dream...  A dream of cooking ham, baked beans, and otherwise bored out of my mind.

Stranger Things Have Happened, by the Foo Fighters, fits perfect with the gray skies

Goddamn this dusty room
This hazy afternoon
I'm breathing in this silence
Like never before

A heart that's full up like a landfill
a job that slowly kills you
bruises that won't heal.
You look so tired-unhappy...
I'll take a quiet life,
a handshake of carbon monoxide,
with no alarms and no surprises,
no alarms and no surprises,
no alarms and no surprises, please

It's sunday morning, and the aroma of coffee has filled my single clear nostril.  I long for the day when this sinus infection or cold or whatever it is i have goes away completely....  if i stick a needle up my nose will it pop the pressurized mucus thats up there?  if i could do that i would be sooo happy.

The computer is fixed! and better then ( Read more... )

Once again is it raining, keeping me from work.

I've not much to say, really.

The assembly made for an amazing weekend.  Everything about it was wonderful.  There may have been one dramatic episode that involved some family, but it was relaively short lived and passed within an hour.  another layer on my already calloused feelings towards matters ( Read more... )

Surrender
 in your eyes i see the reflection of endless "i love you's" 
being choked out by harsh hands of...
          ...who knows?
in your smile i read a book that's lost all its pages except the last
it reads "i'm slowly dying because..."
          ...who knows?
in your voice lives a tremble that survives deep within
it speaks "i'm out of love, but you ( Read more... )

From the Snow to You
 the white crushes so beautifully
a sound that kisses my ears
the cold bites so cruelly
then licks my skin

oh if i could float from up here
over it all (from up here there are no lines)
i'd leave it all (just sky)
and i'd find you (and a view of irony)

the sun paints the town in haze
a color that soothes my eyes
the blue sky is stained ( Read more... )

 "With all these words hung 'round my neck,
my head is feeling heavy -- Let me sleep." 
-Matranga

I'm a big fan of getting up hours before i leave for work.  Fresh brewed coffee/ the silence of the world/ the simplicity of life if even for a few minutes...   until 6:30 rolls around.  Then words began to swell around my neck again.
