i hope I’m one day
to achieve my goals
a voice thats pure and clear tells me im never quite so dead as thoughts through the dry dead leaves where we once spoke and i clung to it like i was desperate for life
how can i be dead when i so deeply cling to you
im not okay i float in blue oblivion
how you are [...]
i am like a cardioid microphone
in that
im not really capable of anything
i am wherever someone else left me
i pick up things around me and am heart shaped
(emailed this to myself while walking to the bus stop)
cavernous like tunnels empty cold nowhere
coulduseashave asymmetrical nondescript proportionless
a nothing smile not fooling anyone
a timelapse of the slow decay of a corpse a living corpse
i imagine you dissolving into nothing, a mist
when did it become cool to beg
no, no it never did
wouldn’t you rather feel it
i want to dig it out of the sand
turn it over with my fingers and make a fist
“i’ll give you a new name…”
(i’m feeling particularly warm and fuzzy tonight)
god this picture made me so sad. mad men’s subtleties are wasted on me. there’s something about a girl with no makeup. i can’t shake that look. reminds me of

everything i am depends on
that i am the one who happens upon the dead
let’s be friends
it could be okay
let’s don’t be sad
you could be i don’t know where
let’s meet back here
when the world is less face down in some thing or other
let’s be friends
it’ll be alright
