lace web

inside the mind of every beautiful woman
lies the foreign land of beautifully 
undisturbed lace-webbed thoughts

back home

you weren't you

last night i dreamed you & your hair came home
absolutely crazy
thought i was somewhere i was not
i had to breathe the oxygen out of a bottle of water
and we never did end up finding Claire
about right,

little hell

last night chloe and nik flawlessly played this in the broadway theatre in front of CBC cameras and a crowd of four hundred 
i haven't cried out of pure joy like that in a very long time
i can't wait for this little hell to pass through

tonight as i spent my parents twenty fifth anniversary alone with my mother watching old wedding tapes on VCR, i developed a new found respect for the concept of time
with time, their palpable, unconditional love, has only blossomed
and although cliche, the twenty-three red and two white roses brought tears to both our eyes
i cannot wait to soon hang them to dry, preserving the beautiful skeletons as life slowly leaves them
but not too soon

relief

nothing seems to give me any relief

what's with the eyes in the back of the room?

It's not because I always hold on
It might be I always hold out.

It's not because I always look down
It might be I always look out

It might be I always give out

human nature

By nature, we do not perceive ourselves or others accurately. We magnify the importance of ourselves and diminish that of others. In the beauty of a clear night, however, we look at the stars and feel ourselves small, unimportant, and at peace. On an objective scale, we sense our insignificance. Somehow the realization comforts us. The return of the illusion hurts us, takes our peace away, allows us to magnify slights, rejections, and humiliations as others challenge the illusion of our self-importance with theirs. It is in our human nature that this be so; it is our task to transcend it.

necessary

was that really necessary?

b

you make ridiculous faces when ever you can
you jump at any opportunity to act half your age
you purposely make yourself as unattractive as possible
you try with all your might, to get on my last nerve frequently
and yet, i'm always going to have a soft spot for you
i'm never going to be able to be dishonest with you
i won't ever forget you, and our ridiculous experiences
rich with the foolishness of our uncanny youth
