False Harmony + Cutting Away.
False harmony in any kind of relationship is such bullshit. Pleasantness for the sake of pleasantness is not helpful at all. I always see right through it and it disgusts me. It lies and laughs at me through a fake smile or some kind of politeness.
I know a girl who is made of mountain rocks and fire. She should be controlling and in charge of a whole army of people. When she gives a...

A dictionary of buckish slang, university wit, and pickpocket eloquence.
ANGLING FOR FARTHINGS. Begging out of a prison window with a cap, or box, let down at the end of a long string.

I haven’t been this massively depressed since I was a kid. And what’s worse, I have someone who understands. I mean, he completely understands. I have had people who WANT to understand and people who were WORKING to understand. I’ve had people who don’t understand and don’t want to understand. And he wants to help. It is awful, I can’t let go of my guilt....

I’m happy to have gained weight this month. Stress and malnourishment was wasting me and I’m making active choices to nourish myself more completely.
Oh well I look at my watch, it says 9:25 and I think
Oh God I’m still alive
David Bowie- Time. →
An elegant and bold performance of “Time”. Breaking up is hard/but keeping dark is hateful/i had so many dreams/i had so many breakthroughs.

Today is a day of rest for me. I’m in a quiet place, completely alone. There is a fire going and for the first time in a long time I slept the right amount. My energy is a burning thing. If it isn’t let out through my work or activity, it burns me up. Even if I’m doing the wrong high-energy activity—-it can burn me. I’ve spent such a long time doing things for others....
Poem 2: elemental
In the midst of this war, your energy dies as mine rages, endless-restless as the sea.
I try to transfer without drowning you.
You try to stand tall without gasping in me.
Rocks fall, move.
Earth shifts beneath our feet.
With the help of the waters, great shapes can be made.
If you are the sand, pray for rain to kiss the desert.
If you are the mountain, allow for a stream.
I will...
February 19, poem
I’m clearing cobwebs from your memories
as you lay shrouded in dreams.
I tidy, clean and give life to a home and you escape in your much-needed sleep.
How could I for this moment feel like the lesser sex? Why ever would I deem this unfair?
Maybe a million lovers ago. But not now, never with you.
Because you do the same for me. In heaps of caring ground. You tidy, fix and feed.

Leaving Carpe Geekdom
Hello, I think it is important for me to release an official statement about this. I won’t be playing with Carpe Geekdom anymore as a collective or touring with them. It isn’t a “bad blood” bitterness or anything that I decided to separate from them and it certainly isn’t that I don’t love them. In fact, I encourage you to support them even MORE now than ever...
