"If the American people ever allow the banks to control the issuance of their currency, first by inflation, then by deflation, the banks and corporations that grow up around them will deprive the people of all property until their children wake up homeless on the continent their fathers occupy."

It's times like this when you realize that addiction is never cured; sometimes you just don't have to fight it as much.

When it's time to die, who's ready to die as nobly, as gloriously as the fact of our mortality demands
Who's ready for that?
By the time you die, you're so exhausted, and so beaten, and so miserable that you can only die

-Refused

A while back I (a year ago?) I sent a letter to my high school English teacher.
His response ended with a question: What have you been thinking?

That question stumped me for at least a year. To be honest, I still don't really know the answer.

( my response: )

Walking home
through all the streets unmoving
so quiet I could hear the timers of the traffic lights a block away:
the mechanism. Nobody else, just the silence
spreading out to where the long trucks groaned
on the highway their vast brute souls in want.

Based on what I just heard on a Mexican radio station... it's going to be a Very Very Good Year.

What you think is the sunshine
Is just a twinkle in my eye
That ring around my finger
Called the 4th of july
I'm gonna tear me off a rainbow
And wear it for a tie
I never told the truth
So I can never tell a lie

Grace, honour, praise, delight,
Here sojourn day and night.

Sound bodies lined
With a good mind,

Do here pursue with might
Grace, honour, praise, delight.
