Freeeedom..!

Journal Entry: Thu Nov 12, 2009, 2:27 AM

Well that's the end of that. Third tear Finals over and done with. Everybody, one, two, three aaaaaaaaand 'DUDE, GOD LET THIS KID PASSSSS!' Amen!

Anywho, I should have more time to get back to writing some good shit. Maybe take some pretty pictures. Who knows? Winter break never seemed so promising before

And with Avatar coming out in December with The Lucky Bones, man oh man.

Letter to the Woman Who Stopped Writing Me Back

I wanted you to be the first to know - Harper & Row
has agreed to publish my collected letters to you.

The tentative title is Exorcist in the Gym of Futility.

Unfortunately I never mailed the best one,
which certainly was one of a kind.

A mutual friend told me that when I quit drinking,

I surrendered my identity in your eyes.

Now I'm just like everybody else, and it's so funny,

the way monogamy is funny, the way
someone falling down in the street is funny.

I entered a revolving door and emerged
as a human being. When you think of me
is my face electronically blurred?

I remember your collarbone, forming the tiniest
satellite dish in the universe, your smile
as the place where parallel lines inevitably crossed.

Now dinosaurs freeze to death on your shoulder.

I remember your eyes: fifty attack dogs on a single leash,
how I once held the soft audience of your hand.

I've been ignored by prettier women than you,
but none who carried the heavy pitchers of silence
so far, without spilling a drop.
-- Jeffrey McDaniel

I got a new phone a couple of weeks back, yaay. And the reason why I hadn't announced (!) it sooner was due to my screwed up internet connection. AND the fact that in spite of being on vacation I've got a heavier workload than Atlas. Sigh.

But I'm hoping =Iscariot-Priest will excuse my late post for July Haikuthon 2009. I'll be working in a mix of senryu and Found haiku.

I really wanted to take part in Flash Fiction Month as well but I'm fast learning that third year of medicine is no fooking joke. In any language. Hardeeharhar. :/

And is that Scientology ad meant to BLIND you into submission?!

Aesthetic Theory

Contrive a poem out of ears
Tell it
so that it's petals unchocolate
like a brain in a jar.
Wax walnut melting with thought.
Make it a poem almost
lewdly knowledge
ooze, syrup from the punched trunk.
Make it snake up to the molecule whorey
and put it's mouth
atomic against the mouth of it's core.
Pull on it's stem
to expose it's foetus. Make it
have children with sleek ginger jaws.
Make the dogs moan when it passes,
let it out of it's jar.
Make it lie with our corpse, our chaos,
make it huge, evil, enemy of Death.
Put it on paper. Read it. Make surgery
it's sigh, and of such sting.
The Scorpions call it Jehovah & Who.
Make it now before you crap out,
Contrive it, sperm it, stroke it.
Make it efficient, make it fit,
make it more poem that poem-
can survive.

-Stan Rice
