Like a Chorus of Boiling Lobsters

Aftermath

I learnt to write to you in happier days,
And every letter was a piece I chipped
From off my heart, a fragment newly clipped
From the mosaic of life; its blues and grays,
Its throbbing reds, I gave to earn your praise.
To make a pavement for your feet I stripped
My soul for you to walk upon, and slipped
Beneath your steps to soften all your ways.
But now my letters are like blossoms pale
We strew upon a grave with hopeless tears.
I ask no recompense, I shall not fail
Although you do not heed; the long, sad years
Still pass, and still I scatter flowers frail,
And whisper words of love which no one hears.

- Amy Lowell

i've finally escaped my wretched cave after a month of playing braille scrabble with the children at the local school for the deaf. I figure i'd give them a little handicap (pun unintentionally intended). Instead of rambling about myself, I thought it'd be nice to talk about you.

What have you done this summer? Getting paid are yah? Drinking on the weekend are yah? Taking big ol' beer shits have you? Surfing on facebook to check the incoming freshman are yah? Sneaking glances at those stranger's big boobies are yah?

I'm sorry, but i just can't relate, because I've done none of that. No journal for you!!!!

Something to chew on.

"...As we have seen, many of the daily decisions we take are taken to attempt to fulfil a need that we are not aware exists. We are constantly trying to either protect ourselves from the thought that we are unlovable, to distract ourselves from the thought that we are unlovable, or to recreate repressed situations to "prove to ourselves" we are not unlovable; and with millions upon millions of us all doing this, so the Western world is actually starting to become just a mass of avoidance strategies. We are each of us interpreting our world in a way that allows us to avoid confrontation with repressed conflicts from our past; and with a society based on supply and demand, so our planet is slowly being compelled to facilitate all these avoidance strategies in order that our minds can continue to hold down all the pain within."

I took the train up from illinois

I was following through on a letter you sent

I always feared that you'd be true

True to yourself to the bitter end

It just kinda happened, or so she says

She was drinking and lonely, you know the rest

And he meant nothing, he was happenstance

She says she loves me still and wants a second chance

But i don't wanna be together

I don't wanna be apart

I don't want none of this love for you honey

Deep, deep down in my heart

Where is my golden crown

That you took and passed around

There's no telling what a man might do

With a life like this when it all falls through

I don't wanna be together

I don't wanna be apart

I don't want none of this love for you honey

Deep, deep down in my heart

You were my dream come true

Can't you see what you've put me through

The love that tears me apart

Still beats deep, deep down in my heart

Deep, deep, deep down in my heart

it may not always be so; and i say

Mon, 26 Jun 2006 17:42:54 GMT

it may not always be so;and i say
that if your lips,which i have loved,should touch
another's,and your dear strong fingers clutch
his heart,as mine in time not far away;
if on another's face your sweet hair lay
in such a silence as i know,or such
great writhing words as,uttering overmuch,
stand helplessly before the spirit at bay;

if this should be,i say if this should be-
you of my heart,send me a little word;
that i may go unto him,and take his hands,
saying,Accept all happiness from me.
Then shall i turn my face,and hear one bird
sing terribly afar in the lost lands.

The Brighter Side of Breaking Up from zefrank.com

Dieting is easier when you don’t have an appetite.

Even though you’ve become massively in debt from gifts you bought your ex, at least your newfound addiction to cigarettes has left you with bad breath.

Since on average you fall in love every 9 years, you’ll only be 40 when it happens again.

You get to do a huge spring-cleaning regardless of the season since half your stuff is now in the “memorabilia” category.

You get to experience what its like to be a depressed, tormented artist… just without the motivation or talent.

Crying at movies no longer makes you feel stupid, since it’s the only place where its okay to do it in public.

You can appreciate the nuanced subtlety in the lyrics to Richard Marx’s “I’ll be waiting right here for you”.

You finally get to learn how to delete a number in your cell phone address book.

The fact that your cell phone now has 148 empty slots, gives you a new urgency in reconnecting with lost friends.

You get to experience a deep warm connection when the guy at Starbucks says "Have a nice day!" and smiles.

You can do empirical studies on whether alcohol is actually a depressant.
You find yourself answering the question “How are you today?” honestly and at great length.

You get to finally reconnect with your pet.

You begin to wonder whether pets think in sentences and whether the words” i love you “ ever crossed their minds.

You get to look forward to dates where you catch someone else up on how many siblings you have as well as all the other mundane facts of your life.

You get to hone your marketing skills by attempting to sell “beauty on the inside” in noisy bars.

You can try to convince your parents that they owe you money considering how much they saved since you aren’t going to have a wedding.

Boggle is easier to win when you play by yourself.

You can remember old times by revisiting the single-serving coffee maker your mom bought you during college.

You get to rely on that killer instinct you used to have when choosing an outfit for a night out.

Watching your friends children have temper tantrums no longer has the same ominous implications and returns to just being plain funny.

P.S. Don't worry...it'll all be okay...I promise.

Oh, Chunwoo: thank you for reminding me: I can't believe that you led
me down the path on "grundle." That was cold of you. Fortunately I
checked it out before using it publicly. Nevertheless, I suffered the
indignity of being taken for a ride in class. Ice cold.

Yes, let's get a drink some time. I'd enjoy that. I'm teaching summer
school, looks like, so I'll be around.

Best, Tristan Davies

From GigWise: Damon Albarn has seemingly got a bee in his bonnet about other artists claiming to be things they are not and Radiohead are his main target.

The Blur and Gorillaz man has taken a swipe at Thom Yorke and co blasting them for their live shows and their lack of "humanity".

According to the Sun Albarn said: "Radiohead - I'm not gonna get into anyone, but bands who care about certain things and then go on one-and-a-half-year stadium tours are just total hypocrites."

"In on sense you've got this developing humanist thing that's coming out of you, which is great. Then you're creating these massive impersonal events where you set up as the subject of thousands of people's adoration. Where is the humanity in that? That's just idolatory."

Meow!

Albarn then went on to re-voice his already well known distaste for last year's Live 8 event, particularly the roles of Bob Geldof and Bono.

He raged: "You can't question Geldof's passion. But him and Bono - if you're so interested and care about Africa, think about the people, see them as a neighbour. Be interested in what they are interested in and don't impose your own ideas. It's imperious, it really is."

Sat, 07 Jan 2006 23:32:57 GMT

However efforts by executives to change the title to something more mundane, such as Pacific Air 121 were stopped by none other than lead actor and screen legend Samuel L. Jackson, who, according to one interview transcript, refused point blank to see the title altered in any way.

"Snakes on a Plane, man," said Jackson during a recent interview with Collider.com.

"We're totally changing that back. That's the only reason I took the job: I read the title."

"You either want to see that, or you don't. It's actually been a fun show. But we're taking the name back."

"Some of them are aggressive, some of them are cool. They're interesting to watch, and interesting to interact with. It depends on what kind of snake it is. One day, it took, like, four guys to bring in this 350 lb. Burmese Python. We were all like, Where?s that goin?? And I watched an Albino Cobra strike airplane seats the other day. I watched it from another studio. It?s actually been a fun show. But we?re taking the name back! "

"Creation seems to come out of imperfection. It seems to come out of a striving and a frustration. And this is where I think language came from. I mean, it came from our desire to transcend our isolation and have some sort of connection with one another. And it had to be easy when it was just simple survival. Like, you know, "water." We came up with a sound for that. Or "Saber-toothed tiger right behind you." We came up with a sound for that. But when it gets really interesting, I think, is when we use that same system of symbols to communicate all the abstract and intangible things that we're experiencing. What is, like, frustration? Or what is anger or love? When I say "love," the sound comes out of my mouth and it hits the other person's ear, travels through this Byzantine conduit in their brain, you know, through their memories of love or lack of love, and they register what I'm saying and they say yes, they understand. But how do I know they understand? Because words are inert. They're just symbols. They're dead, you know? And so much of our experience is intangible. So much of what we perceive cannot be expressed. It's unspeakable. And yet, you know, when we communicate with one another, and we feel that we've connected, and we think that we're understood, I think we have a feeling of almost spiritual communion. And that feeling might be transient, but I think it's what we live for."
