The Monster was/is pathetic.

I have been grieving every day since last fall about a death that happened a long time ago.

The artist is a canary in a coal mine.

I tried to train myself to be a realist. I am not cynical. To me it is 'Can you get through this life with a good heart?' That has been my struggle. With all the injustice and all the things that piss you off, to try to get the heart to rebound. And bloom again, you know? ~ Joni Mitchell

It Acts Like Love

It acts like love-music-
it reaches toward the face, touches it, and tries to let you know
His promise: that all will be okay.

It acts like love- music and,
tells the feet, "You do not have to be so burdened."

My body is covered with wounds
this world made,

but I longed to kiss Him, even when God said,
"Could you also kiss the hand that caused
each scar
for you will not find me until
you do."

It does that- music- helps us to forgive.

After years of waiting
nothing came
As your life flashed before your eyes
you realize

I'm a reasonable man
get off, get off, get off my case
I'm a reasonable man
get off my case
get off my case

After years of waiting
After years of waiting nothing came
and you realize you're looking
looking in the wrong place

Oh, life is bigger
It's bigger than you
And you are not me
The lengths that I will go to
The distance in your eyes
Oh no, I've said too much
I set it up

Memory come when memory's old
I am never the first to know
Following the stream up north
Where do people like us float
There is room in my lap
For bruises, asses, hand claps
I will never disappear
Forever, I'll be here

"The antidote to hubris, to overweening pride, is irony, that capacity to discover and systematize ideas. Or, as Emerson insisted, the development of consciousness, consciousness, consciousness." ~ Ralph Ellison

"I'm a word man. See, there's this theory about the nature of tragedy, that Aristotle didn't mean catharsis for the audience but a purgation of the emotions of the actors them selves. The audience is just a witness to the event that takes place on stage." Jim Morrison

I never knew this could happen to me
I know now fragility
I know there's people who I haven't told
I know of people who are getting old

Wish I could speak in just one sweep
What you are and what you mean to me
Instead I mumble randomly
You stand by and enlighten me

In a dream I lost my teeth again
Calling me woman and half man
Yes in a dream all my teeth fell out
A cracked smile and a silent shout
A cracked smile and a silent shout

If I explain it once thoroughly
He'll have you later 'cause it's never free
You were at the gigantic spree
I caught a glimpse now it haunts me
I caught a glimpse now it haunts me

The Knife ~ Silent Shout
