sometimes you just have to spend 25 cents

on the complete guide to disco dancing.

america, the time has come for us to move forward, not backward,

upward, not forward, and always twirling, twirling, twirling towards freedom!

ah. a perfect day for bananafish.

i don't have a camera tra la tra la

and i've nothing to say tra loo

and that is the reason tra la tra la

i haven't a post for you.

little song i wrote. hope you enjoyed it.

the ugly truth

it is at moments after i have dreamed

of the rare entertainment of your eyes

when (being fool to fancy) i have deemed

with your peculiar mouth my heart made wise;

at moments when the glassy darkness holds

the genuine apparition of your smile

(it was through tears always) and silence moulds

the strangeness as was mine a little while;

moments when once more my illustrious arms

are filled with fascination, when my breast

wears the intolerant brightness of your charms:

one pierced moment whiter than the rest

-turning from the tremendous lie of sleep

i watch the roses of the day grow deep.

e.e. cummings

how. disturbing.

anyways, happy easter!

i don't believe in atheists

reading ''i don't believe in atheists''

by chris hedges.

it's okay, a bit rambly

(i'm only on the first chapter and he's made the same point 23 times),

however, it is a good point.

and it's making me think

that i've become pretty

closed-minded and ignorant

about religion.

in my defense,

living in idaho

can do that to a person.

but reading this book

is reminding me

how easy it is

to see a few aspects of things

that anger you

and find yourself wishing

more people could see the world

like you do

i think

i have been drastically over-simplfying.

will work on that.
