Sometimes my search for words seems rather hopeless. Like looking for the perfect can of cola. But every can of cola has so much salt in it that it doesnt quench anything. And it might be a great can of cola, compared to other kinds. But still, that thirst for something better never goes away.

I think Im waiting for an end. Err lusting for an end. Something needs to come to a complete stop, so that something else can begin.

The problem with change is you usually have to go through a withdrawal period, as you adjust to the loss of the old routines. And what the old routines provided cannot always be replaced immediately.

Relationships between people, between groups and other groups, between groups and individuals, between people and things that are not people, between ideas that people have, and people not actually born yet, or people that existed in the past. Is it simple. Is it a matter of aligning oneself with a personal concept of nature/love, nature as experienced uniquely by the individual, rather than some meaningless...

I bought a sculpture in Vancouver that I've had for 3 1/2 half months now, and I just had an idea of why I like it. Youve got a very physical white bear, a polar bear probably, and hes got a dream of some sort in his mouth. The green salmon between his teeth. And hes not killing it. Hes simply got hold of it....

A person has to follow their instincts. Even if the instincts have been conditioned and the person is a tool because of it. If instincts point one way, and your intellect in another. Then youre fucked if you go with intellect. Irregardless of whether your right.

Part of The _____ Song, by Floater.

Make your mistakes
But stay clear of the brakes
Oh godspeed
To another world

A search on the wing is a dangerous thing,
If you shift your focus
To another world

Take heed
And watch what you seek
Everything's here
In other words.

Oh fall into pieces
All I believe in swirling, curling
Down the drain. Ah no....

The things he said, the stereotype of the priest. Words to live by, apparently.

1. If you make a mistake, you should hate yourself. Its only fair.

2. If you seek pleasure and happiness on your own terms, then youre a sinner and you should die. Or be punished. Or experience much guilt.

3. Be afraid of god, and do what I tell you he...

Then he begin to smoke crack
Then he had to sell ass

I don't know where he is
I don't know where they are

Nonsense is my new addiction. Ive decided I dont want to maximize life, I just want to live it. Ive got a desire for forms that dont reference anything specific. Except if its gay. If it references gayness,...

Step right up, they said.

Cures come in all sorts of prices, textures, sizes.

I dont want to be cured, they said.

Neither do I, they said again. Them.

Neither do I, I replied. Into the cold air. Smiling.

There was an annoying lack of certainty, and then the lightning came.

Lies invite the willing to descend into strange dreams, not of their
own invention. In the two-dimensional boxes,
curious plots and images await
the eager novice.

Ode to graphic novels

I wonder about the dark, fecund, unmoving
Eternities in picture books.
I am suspicious,

Yet hopeful, interested, and curious.
Like a battered wife. Maybe itll turn out nice
But it never does.

As the faeries...
