i had the power

I hadn't up until that point and I suppose it tripped me up.
The same way people win a chunk of change at the casino and think they're invincible, then squander all they've gained plus some in an attempt to out do themselves.

I though, had been kidding myself; losing sight of the smoke and mirrors. or maybe not so much losing sight as it was assured they'd gone. Either way, this made any subsequently assumed control no more than faux power. faux pas.



There'd actually been a few moments that made me think staying here would be nice, that there were things to gain and I don't mean that at all materialistically.
But i can't do it.
While truthfully there are things worth seeing through, it only ever takes the smallest of instances to remind you why you've already made a choice.
The curtains are nice and the breeze blows them beautifully.
But the house is empty and there are gaping holes in the walls, something you'd never notice if you're only ever looking out the window letting the sun, the breeze, the weightless fabric, kiss your skin.




got my grip back.

the balcony sessions

an accumulation of little things I write when I'm sitting out on my balcony, befittingly titled 'the balcony sessions', gufaw gufaw.
(haha, lol, and every extension of, are pouring out through my ears so it was time for a change. welcome: gufaw!)

April 14

everything lasts as long as it can.

as long as


it's meant to.

even the most miniscule,

marked by the swinging of the blinds.


away, back again,

slowed.

stopped.


and then a breeze;

recommence.


Sleep soundly now, dearest. The people have gone.

Toes

sticking.

Curling

sheets.

Skin spilled secrets.


A

Misinterpretation coddling

Misinformation.

Missed-information,

sweating through walls by

the hand of a searing son.



A

misanthrope(ist) reeled back in,

screaming 'Eat me whole or;


leave me be."


But it'd been by an

Un-

governable hand

(not will)

that damage had been done.


Reflection Reflectshun

That night the skies were set on

fire.

The image being

reflected

made ambiguous by the flames.

Reflect(shunned).

Stunned,

all of you stood.

All of you stand.

Weary, searching,

wound.

Up.

You can't prove a thing.



To beguile.

What a great word. By definition:
1. To charm and enchant someone (sometimes deceitfully, but not necessarily).
2. To trick
3. To pass time pleasantly.

Not many words can mean two things usually only coupled together by irony (or misfortune), and then to top it off, have a third meaning that can describe the two prior;
whether one is charming or tricking another, they are choosing to spend their time this way and thus passing it pleasantly.
Perfect.

a little fictitious something,-

-kind of like the truth on adderall.


note: fiction, guys. fiction. the person talking is not "me" and this did not happen.


"He fought for connections, roped them in and hog tied them, the other end of the rope secured round his torso. I saw him try to swim, and knew incessantly what he wanted. He wanted a synchronized group complete with flirty choreography and pearly smiles. i wanted to fly south for winter, our bodies forming a v in the sky. Though, not the two of us. Such recognition in another person as I found in him are dangerous. He too knows the fierceness and integrity of what barricaded our boxes aside from one another. The reflection of a reflection of the glare in his eyes told me so.

He faulted though and spoke aloud. Never speak aloud.

"This is not the way to go about things, this is desperate; and desperation is ugly."

My eyes cut because I do not know you yet. Do not speak to me, you've only begun to disrupt the conversation other plains of ourselves had been having. And the importance of having such are immense, more so than say, speaking.

Elevation saved via actions of normally negative connotations. Luckily though sincerity of motive is key in this realm.

Morality mortality, (you must take the genuine as it shows itself to you) and you know that, so we continued.


Our thoughts spoke and relayed the fears and insecurities one in the same. we don't know each other(them). our minds our hearts ourselves are not at all in synch. as you are not in synch with he and he and him and she and them and the rope is knotting and everything is now as it inevitably had to be, a cluster, it's surface covered down to the most microscopic bit of negative space.

We look deeply and see though, the center is hollow and so are the things that compose it.


He misses the stability he didn't know he had. And i, the stability i knew i had but refused to admire in knowing I was made to lose it. for the first time in our lives neither of us had a home besides the one we were building in the understanding of one another. the idea which is only now cemented and secreting through the pores of every surface living and not, in the truths that finally, no one can dissemble. Our eyes scanned as our minds did, in recognition of a foreign counterpart. But even the home we were building in one another was built on longing. We are not stable, and a pile of instability does not make it anything more than such. I almost opened my mouth to introduce myself formally but i'd decided on recoiling all my ropes that morning and thus I sure as hell couldn't throw out another. He nodded a slow paced nod moving as though he were barely managing to do so without his understanding slipping out. I smiled, veering away."



is consciously hating fairweather relationships as wrong as initiating and controlling such?

i enjoy thinking no, but only because I am fully aware of the line I walk. participation is a commitment in itself, baby.


usually I push things too far but i guess that's how I like it.

i figure there's always the chance someone will get something out of this, this being anything.

i mean, thats the greatness in creation right?:

it didn't exist but by your hand now does, and as much as it may not matter, you've now also created the chance that it could.


xo

i do say, i may be back.

leave me to a room with open windows and endless supplies (granted not in this hellish miami heat but somewhere pleasant) and let me be.
the initial thought was relatively less magical than
that sentence turned out to be. I meant art supplies,
but, well, an endless supply of simplethingsineed would be nice too.
I don't however want that all in one room, I have my archaic way
of organization to upkeep!
anywho, if this were possible right now i'd make some amazing shit. can you ever just feel that in your bones? a creative shiver. an erratic and restless buzzing of ideas spilling out of pores as though the dam that had been trapping them till then was hammered down to bits smaller than the smallest bits. microscopically small. even atomically small. so far from visible, the dams initial existence is questionable. more than questionable, debated against. like tourists in north korea.

but my pens are out of ink.
the edges of my papers are frayed.
my funds bruised indefinately (or as indefinate as what matters which includes only today and i am broke.)
and i'm scribbling endlessly. on recipts. in books. journals. body parts.
I'm even replying to social networking que's.
why, i must be frantic.
but no.

I've reawoken yet again!
let's all hug and kiss and rejoice in celebration (preferably one with wine and class).

blog. back. on.
and a pretty thing to share with you pretty people!

it's frustrating having little to no down time, and little to no life.
it's all severely unbalanced.

shouldn't satisfaction come first?

Titled title

If I were the type to be melodramatic, I'd say my feelings had gone stagnant. I'd say that in mastering being careless to a new extreme, I'd lost all interest in things formerly favored. I'd say that in a flailing attempt to let go of dead weight, I'd managed to untie only the ones I needed; keeping those useless and irrelevant still tightly bound to my wrists, my ankles, my neck.

Good thing however, that I am not a fan of the overly expressive.


On a not so side-note: Leave things that have passed alone.

Do not put forth effort to change them, forget them, accept or forgive them. While the now is infinite, it is ever pouring into the then; an expansion beyond your control. To try and live amongst that expansion, is only a willing loss of self and it'd be a real shame to miss out on what's happening because you're dwelling on what's happened.


On an actual side-note:

"It is not necessary that you leave the house. Remain at your table and listen. Do not even listen, only wait. Do not even wait, be wholly still and alone. The world will present itself to you for its unmasking, it can do no other, in ecstasy it will writhe at your feet." -Franz Kafka

Colour Colour Colour

I started this last night, and finished it this morning. I decided not to use an eraser, and instead drew everything straight with colored pencil and permanent marker. Both of which I'm new to...the eraser is a dear friend of mine (especially when dealing with the human face), and color...well, we usually just avoid each other to spare disappointment. Still, I'm glad I stepped out of my comfort zone and am pretty satisfied with what came of it.

I was made to love magic



First draft, so to speak.

Turns out the design formed the shape of a heart, annd while that wasn't my intention, I don't mind it. Feedback is always appreciated.

i like my body when it is with your

i like my body when it is with your

body. It is so quite a new thing.

Muscles better and nerves more.

i like your body. i like what it does,

i like its hows. i like to feel the spine

of your body and its bones, and the trembling

-firm-smooth ness and which i will

again and again and again

kiss, i like kissing this and that of you,

i like, slowly stroking the, shocking fuzz

of your electric fur, and what-is-it comes

over parting flesh . . . . And eyes big love-crumbs,


and possibly i like the thrill


of under me you quite so new

-e.e. cummings



Something nice for wednesday.

Also, expect a shirt design soon, ideas are in the works.

Good quotes and bear sleeping bags. Doesn't get much better than this.

Oh shit

So I definitely just found my old cd player and seventh grade mix cds.  A lot of Big Pun, The Fugees, Jay-Z in the Blueprint era (let me just say that the Blueprint 2: The Gift & The Curse stands as one of if not the best shit he's ever come out with), Biggie, Black Sheep, Bone Thugs, Tupac, De La Soul, Method Man, old Busta Rhymes, topped off with some Common, Erykah Badu, and No Doubt. 


Finding this by far, made my day.



Side note: It's crazy how now people are thrown when I can hold up my end of a hip-hop conversation, or recite a few verses of certain songs, when it comes second nature because at one point it's all I knew.  I suppose though, a lot of things work that way and it's human nature to pass judgement.  Still, if you only look down a hole in the ground, there's no way of telling where it goes.  To guess, is cheating yourself of a truth that may be worth while.

There are things I may end up changing about this, but until then, here it is for your viewing pleasure.

Dreamy McDreamerson

So, last night (in my sleep mind you) I fell into the inevitable occult that is Robert Pattinson.  While I am proudly uninterested in Twilight, I'm guessing my subconscious could only fend off his beauty for so long...what with his face being plastered everywhere, and life size cutouts roaming the city, it was inevitable and I am surely just a victim of the craze, taken captive against my will.  Anyway, it was a strange dream and I'd rather give you choppy points of it, then run down everything.

- Initially, I had a few points listed then after re-reading them, noticed it didn't do the dream justice. 

- So instead, I've taken them out, replaced them with this, and you can think I dreamt whatever you feel like thinking I dreamt.

- Kind of a cop-out on my part being the 'blogger' and you the 'reader', but fuck, life's tough. Anyway, by the time I was listing I'd forgot most of the dream, and thats just a real shame.



Either way, it may not have been much, but for one dream day it was pretty eventful (and not far off from my better real-life moments). End point: I had a good dream last night and woke up pretty bubbly.  Now I must go pack for a beach weekend. 


Ft Myers beach, be ready.


Side Note: Regina Spektor's new cd has let me down. I was fooled by the singles, heard the cd, and think it's safe to say that the gospel should be left to the choir.  Too much of the same shit man, where'd the umph go? This disappointment is It's Blitz! all over again.

why aren't you mine? they don't love you like I love you!


Side note: How could abc family taint the sanctity of "10 things I Hate About You" with a series featuring shitty teenage actors? Death to the spin-offs. Death death death!

blahblahblah

I only recently realized how much i miss listing, and even more, how long it's been since i've sat down and listed: too long. so here you go!


- I want a camera friend. No I do not need you to speak, just snap my photo. It may even be better if we don't acquaint ourselves with names, there'd be a risk of attachment if we did.


- As of today, my nails are lacquered in black nail polish. A year ago I would have put "\m/" at the end of that sentence because I thought it was funny, too bad my awkward sense of humor is diminishing and now I'm mostly just a bitch.


- On July 28th I will see this live and I cannot express my excitement. Holy shit it is going to be so great, I know it.



that is all for now.

Rock, paper, scissors, SHOOT

Life update: If I'm lucky enough, my parents will move out of state soon (to a city), I'll start and finish sophomore year, then leave florida. Till then I'll be getting my fingers crossed surgically so they're sure not to move out of place. 


Side note: My birthday is tomorrow, and I'll be spending it at the happiest place on earth, for free. I simply can. not. wait.
