Music

The guitars squeal,
The drums shout,
and so I shut up,
and Sometimes
Stop breathing

Stumbling in the dark,
Kicking a table you can’t see

(The table kicks back)

This has to make you wonder,
what the fuck is
up right now

(in the general scheme of things)

This has become
what I think
about

when I think of this place.

Yesterday,
I had all these lines,
making war inside my head,

with other lines.

It was fun,
and I was excited
thinking of the cool stuff

that would make it’s way here.

But it didn’t.
I woke up and
The war was over.

I don’t even know what happened.

Now here I am,
A journalist saying he forgot to write,
adding patterns

to try and make up for what was lost.

I don’t really know if there’s
enough time
(in a day)
to do everything you want.

But…I do know that there is
enough time
(in a day)
(on most days, the disclaimer says)
to do everything I want.

There seems to be something
in the air,
other than the raindrops
and the air-conditioner’s weird noises.

There seems to be something
in the air,
and it makes me
listless,
which is sort of nice,

(I guess this would be much nicer
with some good metaphors in here,
but:
a) I can’t think of any
b) I don’t want to
)

but also sort of irritating.

There are doors

There are doors by Gene Wolfe is a unique book. For me, I mean, since I managed read the whole thing and not lose interest without understanding much of the story. Also, I’m probably going to read it again, which would be pretty unique too.

The only reason you don’t see these worlds is because you don’t explore them.
Okay, not the only reason, but one of them. Surely one of the most important.

Prince Caspian

I gave this movie much leniency, maybe more than it deserved and so it turned out to be quite good! There was that good swordfight and that scene with the White Witch, But the story seemed to turn on points that weren’t so cleverly (I might mean well) thought out. The appearance of Aslan…

Aslan (the lion) somehow reminds me of God, since he can bring water and trees to life,

The appearance of Aslan, and the reasons for his non-appearance are a little slim. God or things symbolic of God must be difficult to depict in stories (because you know of all the omni-characteristics possessed) and movies without tricks where you can only feel stuff. You know like in….in….Aarrrgh, forgot. But giving a form to God is not impossible. I was thrilled while watching Mononoke Hime.

Prince Caspian, I guess was okay. Though there was that good swordfight!

What I would like  to do,
is to write well,
and write well quickly.

However, I have to choose,
it seems,
because as in life

(oh wait, this is somehow
a part of life, isn’t it?)

Okay.
It seems, as in everything else,
compromises have to be made.
And so speed shall get Priority
over Quality.

And Quantity too,
but that’s not so important.

It’s the movie of a lifetime,
No…this year,
Ok maybe today.
Oh, whatever.

Persepolis. It’s a very good movie.
