Do you miss the blend
Of colors she brought to your black and white field?
Do you feel condemned just for being there?

Kiddie Castle
Well, I had a couple days off from work in a row (sort of) and I was determined to get some sort of real writing done, so I decided to start small and take that "poetic abortion" from my last post and, uh, un-abort it, as best I could anyway. Here it is:
Kiddie Castle
I left for the castle by the River Stones,
To escape the prison of my home,

Words II
Is it pretentious for me to title my posts in sequence using Roman numerals?
Continuing on from where I left off...
Went out last night.
I entered through the castle gate,
To the right of the dragon's arse.
Left my crimson steed outside.
The trees blocking out the stars,
but we already sent them away.
I came here to be outside,
but I stay within.
I came here ( Read more... ) -
Words.
I haven't written in a while, but rather than pretend that I'm going to be able to write a long entry or two that will catch you up on everything that's happened since my last post, which never works, I'm just going to do a kind of "stream of consciousness" thing and see how that goes.
No mozzarella on a a ham and swiss sandwich. I fucking hate ( Read more... ) -
Headlines
Been entirely too busy lately...first with school and midterms before break, then just with seeing people and trying to relax and have some fun over break. Obviously, that's left me very little time for updating, but I figured I'd squeeze this in while my professor is talking about William Wordsworth's The Prelude.
I am still morning the death of ( Read more... ) -
More Reviews
Added a second batch of comic reviews for the week to my other page. I did write-ups for Civil War: The Return, The Cryptics' Second Issue, and Wolverine #50. If you were curious, the first batch was Crossing Midnight #3, DMZ #15, Eternals #6, and X-Factor #15. So yeah, go read and comment and what not.

God and Malcolm Reynolds
I've watched the entire 14 episode television series Firefly several times through, and recently I decided to watch them once more. During the first episode, I noticed something that had slipped past me in previous viewings. During the opening scene, the Battle of Serenity Valley, Malcolm Reynolds, the lead protagonist of the series, is trying to ( Read more... ) -
What Sarah Said
And I knew that you were a truth I would rather lose
Than to have never lain beside at all

State of the Union
I just wanted to mention a few things that I noted about tonight's State of the Union Address:
- Was it just me, or did Bush sound seriously ill when he first mentioned the Democratic majority?
- Hilary Clinton's face when Bush was talking about balancing the budget had me, literally, laughing out loud.
- Condaleeza Rice is one ugly woman.
