The Devil in December

Date and Time  - Dec. 26th, 2006, 12:51 pm


The Devil in December

behind the tree and wrap and bow
in the light and in shadow
i know the devil in december

no chimney does he creep down late
he sits in front and starts awake
i know the devil in december

grins and screams
he knows the way
no jolly laugh
no fucking sleigh
an abomination with anger deep
lies and secrets come to reap
generations of traditional sin
an abomination beneath skin
in the basement
below the rooms
i know the devil in december

So It Is Written

Date and Time  - Sep. 9th, 2004, 03:02 pm


So It Is Written

it's a literary sickness
inspired by the sunburnt ashes of ages past
laughing the same dysfunctional laughs
your achievement is worthless

soon you'll be screaming for the flesh
as the holy pen writes you out
an unnamed author's cold reign
from a dusty corner of a forgotten basement

an eccentric little tale
with a twist ending
curiosity leads to terror
the laughing days are over

Not So Scary

Date and Time  - Jan. 21st, 2004, 12:09 am

Current Mood  - high high
Current Music  - the haunted

greetings and hello
i'm sitting here
[info]purpleglitter is humming amazing grace
there refrigerator is humming too
but not amazing grace
the keyboard tray is broken
so the keyboard is on top of the desk
[info]purpleglitter is laughing
i need new bras
my breasts have gotten bigger
i used to not wear bras
okay, i still don't like wearing bras
but i think i'm getting to the point where i need a little support
anyway
so there it is
la la la
stream-of-consciousness can lead strange places
the movie is back on
[info]purpleglitter is watching the haunted
it's really bad
but somewhat funny
not the best funny bad
i saw it a long time ago
never liked it
i'm getting sucked in none the less
tv is evil
must resist
must resist

Shadow Secrets

Date and Time  - Nov. 17th, 2003, 01:07 am


Shadow Secrets

the raven told me about irrational monsters
lurking in the place where dreams meet waking
i should have paid more attention
attention to the screaming in the darkness
was someone there, hiding in the shadows
or were the screams echoes of me
slipped into a foggy world
stuck forever just beyond the horizon
i find myself believing the laughter
the laughter of the monsters in the between
noteworthy demons that fooled me into searching
searching for something that i'm not meant to find
truth fades in illusion's embrace
too much psychoanalyzing the drifting shadows
shattering the bedchambers
delusional memories caught inside a spiderweb
the child was pronounced dead
somewhere insanity lives on

Mooncar

Date and Time  - Nov. 2nd, 2003, 02:13 am


Mooncar

horrible joy
total immersion surprise
vodka and benzos
non-productive stretching
take off in my snazzy mooncar
what?
am i supposed to be fixed?
what is it you want?
my mooncar is in the shop
i hide in defeated shadows
psychoanalyzing something
self-destructive laughter
hoping to keep safe
commit me now

More Visitors

Date and Time  - Oct. 6th, 2003, 08:25 am

Current Mood  - happy happy
Current Music  - silence

[info]merryperseis came to visit carrying many yummy treats, including pistachios and cups of soup to eat if they screw up my meals again or I just get hungry.

Shortly after [info]merryperseis arrived, [info]dicotomygrrl appeared with vegetarian delight from Shanghai Village. The three of us spent many laugh-filled hours in a room in the back of the ward.

During their visits, I signed a 3-day note, meaning that, unless they challenge it, I should be out Wednesday.

Shifting Flux

unexpected
amazement
world fluttering
chaos
confusion
pain
pleasure
tears
laughter
nothing

shifting flux

look around
it's all changed
since
the
last time
you caught
your bearings

At the Bus Stop

Date and Time  - Feb. 2nd, 2002, 05:35 am


I wrote this on the bus Thursday.

At the Bus Stop

I see you
standing at the bus stop
cold distance
keeps us apart
mistrust
bred of past deeds
a melancholy glance
is all we now share

I remember
idle hours
over coffee or chai

I remember
great plans
never seen

I remember
sharing laughs
and sometimes shoulders

I remember
a friendship lost

Rivers of Molten Candy

Date and Time  - Sep. 29th, 2001, 09:10 am


Rivers of Molten Candy

flying high
sailing above
rivers of molten candy
fields of daisies
roads of silk
faces shift
drifting past
happy laughter
echoes distantly
quieter
dimmer
fades out
awake
once more trapped
by evils of gravity
and the monotony
of reality
