"Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body,but rather.......
to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming, 'WOW! What a Ride!'"

I wonder if "old person names" were ever considered "young person names".

I wonder how many more times I have to fall down before I realize that convulsive inebriation is not the answer to life's questions.

I wonder if hearing "I love you" will ever get old.

I wonder all of these things,
And regardless of the two thoughts before,
My final answer will always...

A Part Meant Prison

the vaulted ceilings of the third story
represent something more than amenities
some concept beyond comfort or space
some concept below cosmos or space
some concept between contentment and philosophy

and the clock runs its course as the hands
perpetually pull apart and work around again
to fit in harmony like
the alignment of the spheres

and time escapes me

because...

I totally know what Nutella is. Michael (my boy) loves it too. When do you get to see your girl? That's so amazingly adorably romantic! I love that kind of stuff. How are things out by you? I just spent the weekend with Michael. It was amazing. We went to an awesome fetish party friday night, then saturday saw a local band play... my best friend drove out 2 hours to see us, and his best friend drove out 2 hours from maryland to see us too, so it was a total blast. It was great. I swear every time I see him I fall deeper and deeper in love with him... it's just the way he looks at me, the way he holds my hand and leads when we walk... just... <sigh> everything. I dunno. I swear I sulked the whole way home yesterday. Hehehehe being in love ROCKS! I'm moving in with him in June. I can't effing wait. What else is new?

Okay... so I've never tried LSD, but my friend and I each got a hit to do tomorrow. Apparently the blotters are double-dipped, but that's probably just something they tell you, like "triple-stack" rolls. I don't know. Drugs are fun.

If anyone has any suggestions/comments about the acid, let me know.

On a completely different note, it is now one week from my girlfriend's arrival...

Someone pointed out to me that they can't tell what's in my mouth in my profile picture. Alas, another attempt to seem cool has gone totally awry. It's a cigarette, but apparently looks like a piece of gum hanging out of my mouth. ::sigh::

I can't wait until my girlfriend comes down from Chicago to stay with me for a week. I will be inebriated...

well, the only problem with nice guys finishing happiest is that i definitely was not the nice guy, and that's why we broke up. i was acting like an insensitive, clueless jerk, even after 2 years together

. i don't think i said in my journals exactly what happened, but long story short is that i deserved everything i got. i only realized much too late what she meant to be, and have tried everything i could to get her to see that. i think i've grown up more in the past 5 months than i did in 22 years. ah, c'est la vie.

so my listening to atmosphere is kind of antithetical, but at the same time makes me feel better, because feeling angry is better than feeling sad, if that makes any sense.

YOU said blizzunt. LMMFAO!

I'll be feeling the same way come tomorrow afternoon. I drive 2 1/2 hours to see my boy (from bergen county, NJ, right outside of NYC to Reading, PA) and even the drive is nice, I swear I feel elated the whole time. It's downright intoxicating. I fucking love the way I feel thinking about him, being with him, just driving in the car with him and listening to him incessantly ramble about some funny memory with his buddies from college. The night I met him face to face (I started talking to him here on SG) I stayed the night with him... I remember walking to his car with him... the snow was falling in Philadelphia.... we were walking down the street holding hands, he was leading me by the hand. The snowflakes were tickling my face, and it was so cold but I didn't care. I felt warmth come from that hand all the way through my bones. <sigh> I totally know how you feel. Rock on.

What's new? Go answer gay daily questions.

Wow. I have actually realized what love is. And it hit me harder than I ever thought it would. Every love song ever written suddenly makes sense. Not the stereotypical parts about love, but the tiny comments in verses. "Blue Sky" by The Allman Brothers is suddenly amazing.

I am a lovestruck fool.

A sad-eyed puppy dog at her heels.

And frankly, I love it....

It's unbelieveable isn't it? It's like the person is a sickness and the cure together, like the most gorgeous chemical induced illusion that exists. <sigh> I totally know how ya feel, I'm head over heels myself. My muse is Roxxsolid.

Your writing is badass. I totally feel it. I don't usually comment on people's work unless I think it's REALLY good, so feel special lol... I have lots of work... quite a bit on the poetry group, but it's way down on the other pages I think. Look for works down on the list called "Carnage Intoxate" and "The World Fell Away"... there's a few others too somewhere.

So today my plans are finalized. She will come and stay with me in Austin for an entire week. And I can't wait.

I can't wait to feel her again; I need her like I need food right now.

Fuck, I'm hungry.

So hungry that I could eat...

A beautiful girl.

Take that for what it's worth. Hopefully not knee-jerk face value.

I'm rarely cannibalistic.

So now I am sitting here looking at beautiful women instead of studying for my test tomorrow. My very long, very difficult, very intense test tomorrow. Maybe I'll write some. Then drink a beer. Or eight. Then have a couple of cigarettes. Then study.

Sounds like a plan.

actually, i took the pictures myself... just me and my tripod... it was fun, i had never done self portraits before.
burstandbloom:
you dig the Slam poetry stuff huh?
i dont usually do it
cause it is a different monster- theres a performance aspect, like songwriting, and i find myself cheating too often- using cliches and expected motions etc etc etc
so i stay away from it because im not good enough at breaking free of slam concepts ... or whatever

although i did do some acting in the past and i wouldnt mind doing slam stuff more, because it is fun

i just dont get out to try it as often as i should
mostly cause Cleveland's fucking cold (wait is my dick frozen, no i just touched it's good, ooooh good
sorry

and i gotta move

So I wrote my new poem today. My friend James told me "Chris, you've written your 'Whole Lotta Love', but I don't think you're ready for your 'Stairway' yet". Here's to you, James. Read "Cardio-Poetary Resuscitation" Here

Read the rest of my poetry Here
