so afraid of the one who's so afraid of you



the wilson sisters must have made a deal with the devil. i can't stop listening to their vinyl this week.
their greatest hits album has a cover of rock and roll dedicated to john bonham...unreal.

i am falling through the stars



still wearing eye shadow. still hitting those notes. still loving them.
i had so many things i was going to do tonight. instead i'm staying in with a bottle of wine,
pruning myself in the bath and listening to this album. over and over.

weak all week



he's all i've been able to listen to this week. winter blues are fast approaching. i wish he was around still.
i'd loiter outside of his apartment but i live too far to even bring flowers to his wall.

a series of small victories

"I've never been lonely. I've been in a room -- I've felt suicidal. I've been depressed. I've felt awful -- awful beyond all -- but I never felt that one other person could enter that room and cure what was bothering me...or that any number of people could enter that room. In other words, loneliness is something I've never been bothered with because I've always had this terrible itch for solitude. It's being at a party, or at a stadium full of people cheering for something, that I might feel loneliness. I'll quote Ibsen, "The strongest men are the most alone." I've never thought, "Well, some beautiful blonde will come in here and give me a fuck-job, rub my balls, and I'll feel good." No, that won't help. You know the typical crowd, "Wow, it's Friday night, what are you going to do? Just sit there?" Well, yeah. Because there's nothing out there. It's stupidity. Stupid people mingling with stupid people. Let them stupidify themselves. I've never been bothered with the need to rush out into the night. I hid in bars, because I didn't want to hide in factories. That's all. Sorry for all the millions, but I've never been lonely. I like myself. I'm the best form of entertainment I have. Let's drink more wine!" -cb

tiny white bombs



sometimes 
i can’t take it

i get so 
paranoid.

not about epidemics
cell phones and brain tumors
a husband killing his five children
his wife
himself

but about the
dearly beloved,
we are gathered here
today’s.

not the thieves
the people after your money
your sex
your youth

not about someone taking
what is mine

nothing is mine

and you can’t take anything
of importance anyhow.

but my teeth

I fear my gums are
pulling a w a y
from my teeth

as the ocean pulls away
from the sand

as children pull away
from hugs
and kisses

as you pull away
from yourself.

sometimes

i fear they will pull away
and pull away

until my teeth
are set free
from my mouth

dropping
like tiny white bombs

to the floor
to the back of my throat
into my stomach, perhaps
into my own hands.

the ones that are left will
wear away
getting smaller
and smaller
every
day

until they eventually grind
to dust
to nothing.

sometimes
I can’t take it

I get so
paranoid.
