What else? I'm a Gemini, my favorite color is purple, and I like dogs more than cats. |
your music collection is sbout as weak as mine. are you a goth chick? |

Do you want to hear some of my poetry? *ahem* Do not stand at my grave and weep I am not there, I do not sleep. I am a thousand winds that blow; I am the diamond glints on snow, I am the sunlight and ripened grain, I am the gentle Autumn rain, When you awake in the morning hush, I am the swift upflinging rush Of quiet birds in circling flight, I am the soft star shine at night. Do not stand at my grave and cry, I am not there, I did not die. I did not end at the point of the knife, Remember, my love, THE BLOOD IS THE LIFE. I don't really know what it means, but my boyfriend likes it a lot, so it must be good, right? |

*cowers* Um, so, like, um, what do you think of Brad Pitt? *ducks* |
It's untitled, but I'm thinking of calling it "Lo, the Night Is Upon Me, and I Cry to the Arbiters of Grief Before I Call for the Cup of Abysmal Sorrow into which I Will Pour the Eternal Tears that Drip Everlastingly from My Marble Eyes" (Catchy, no?) I hear the Devil's Knell and know that I have been betrayed. All promises have holes and only some prophecies fulfilled. A garden of pain I have weeded my way through only to find the prettiest flower, the extention of the cruelest weed. Not one tear could I shed for those who believe in a over-glorified idol. I cannot bear the weight you bestow upon me. Am I simply to be crushed or am I to fight first? A dear heart to me you are to me, but not knowing your true self, It is the poison that my soul drinks willingly and hour by hour my sour soul decays but a little more. I am in pain and you can only soothe it for a moment for every other one is spent recovering from stories. Bring down the house, bring down the church, destroy the world for I don't give a damn. I am dying and I am to be alone. Do you envy me? If you want to snag a darque and gothique girl/guy with cool morbid poetry like mine, go here to learn how. Brad Pitt? He's okay. I like my guys more androgynous. |
I mean, he's no Mortiis....but then, who is? |
your bf's a goth chick? |
I was going to put up my cd collection on my webpage (which I am too lazy to work on) but I got sick of typing all that crap in. Rhiannon, have you heard trysome eatone by Love Spit Love? I may have asked you that before, I'm not certain. All that goth stuff is pretty off, she only has one Cure album, and nothing by Bauhaus, Alien Sex Fiend, The Damned or Siouxsie and the Banshees. I figure I have about 39 just plain ol' rock cds, 61 punk cds, 17 r+b/funk cds, 12 strictly pop cds, 15 folk cds, 2 country cds, 6 jazz cds, 8 blues cds, 17 hip-hop cds, 9 spoken word discs, 16 ska discs, 55 metal discs, 14 indie rock/emo discs, 27 industrial discs, 16 goth discs, 3 classical discs, 47 celtic discs, 34 reggae discs, 4 klezmer discs, 5 zydeco discs, 10 other world music discs, 5 dub discs, 7 "electronica" (for lack of a better term) discs, 58 "alternative" discs, and 50 compilation albums. I probably have more than all that actually. |
are you a junkie chick? how's that? |
How is the Morriesey cd.. and Modest Mouse cd? Massive Attack? Pj Harvey's Is This Desire? I saw Built to Spill in concert once, with Modest Mouse. Modest Mouse really sucked back then, but perhaps they're getting better. The lead singer held his guitar real funny. Like it was an uz. I'm sure they're all good. But it's still nice to hear a critique. |
"How Can You Call Yourself A John Denver Fan You Lying Bitch" I love that! I was going to tell you all the poem, but I don't know if Jerry would mind. It doesn't mention John Denver at all, but it does mention Morrissey. |
_______: Um. No. Maybe you're thinking of someone else? Jina: I have Modest Mouse courtesy of my brother, who got it for me for Xmas or something, but he really wanted it for himself. The first song, "Dramamine," is pretty good, but the guy sings just like Black Francis, which annoys the heck out of me. My brother just got their latest album, and he tells me it's good, but can we trust him? I prefer Massive Attack's "Mezzanine" to "Blue Lines," mostly because Elizabeth Fraser from the Cocteau Twins sings on "Mezzanine," and her voice sounds like a little bird, which I love. PJ Harvey's "Is This Desire?" is very good...a wide range of song styles, all creepy. Morrissey's "Viva Hate" I used to like a lot more than I do now, and "Maladjusted" has several really neat songs (including the really pretty and spirit-lifting "Alma Matters," and the greatly-named "Satan Rejected My Soul"). Gee: Share the poem! Speaking of which, I have to write another poem for my class, and it's not happening. Again. I adore and revere W.S. Merwin, and my teacher and I have structured the class (it's an independent study) so that I have to use him as my model. I want to write like he does, but it has occurred to me that that is completely impossible. My assignment is to find anything he's written and model it in any way I choose. I hate open-ended assignments like this. One thing that's neat, though: My teacher did the same on her own with Richard Wilbur. She told me that when she was much younger, for about 5 years, she read nothing but his work and tried to learn to do what he does, eventually giving up in frustration. But on her most recent book of poetry, on the back is a quote from Wilbur saying, "One of the finest books of poetry I have read in years." Imagine how happy that must have made her...to learn that someone you respect so much thinks well of your own work. |

Gee, that title is probably better than the poem, because I don't see how you can top it. |

[By the way, I didn't write the poems above -- I stole them from people's sites. They were attributed to "anonymous," so if the authors wind up here somehow someday: you can keep your poems.] |
