not settling for indie cred and mediocrity. wrapping you around my finger. making my way onto your children's walls. performance + recording. bouncing to 1/4" tape. songwriting. romancing. manipulation. obsessive and nostalgic narcissism. bringing back effective guitar riffs. degenerative eye diseases. panic attacks. little yoko lapping up her milk. fighting my id for control of my actions. fingerpicking (magic hands). glossy eyes through gorgeous hair. stylized symmetry. learning how to say no. speaking to myself on the phone in spanish (preferrably castillian if i'm in the mood). finding new ways to extend long arguments. secrets of the deep ocean. low cut and tight trousers. scenester coupling. soft & smooth skin. sex, gender, & behavior. songs coming together on piano. remembering (her) smell. getting creative, but not calling it "art". things working out. hearing girls at the next table deep in conversation. blowing up over presale ticket requirements. entertaining and enchanting your friends. pin up girls, factory girls, and
betty boop.
booking the most infamous undiscovered band in america: the payola reserve...
film-makers. young talented ones who aren't into zombies/slashers :) anyone able to appreciate real music made before 1974. oh, and people w/ a comprehensive approach to problem solving. music business people with legitimately fresh ideas. this is going to work exactly how we decide to make it happen. ready to take over the world?
characters with whom i can drink wine and lose my mind. modern lovers, libertines, and other vampires. twiggies, waify brunettes, and femmes who shine like black pearls. anyone who'll take my photograph and adore me. sisters exchanging glances and brothers trading answers. dedicated musicians and followers of fashion. unique people to frequent the studio. ego feeders and nurture eaters. those who dream in dead languages. elusive roleplayers from my dreams of parallel lives. pretty hair types. fellow snake-charmers. women with Soul.

you can't see me, but i can you...
how can you laugh when you know i'm down?
i fell in love with the actress. she was playing a part that i could understand...
don't play with me 'cause you're playing with fire...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
i have not dreamt of you in seeming years, and as such,
breathing fear would only keep you in my mind's contempt.
give me something viable. something i can touch and see. i tire with all your weightless talk...
...now you'll have to try even harder.

i gave her my heart, but she wanted my soul...
shampoo. house of yes. dead man. the long goodbye. chinatown, etc...

Tender is the Night at the moment. Suggestions for what's next?

one to transcend the social convention and down for a pact. anyone not interested in letting me down. artists, but not of the self-proclaimed variety. girls with pretty voices. unmercifuls. kittycats, cuddlers, flirts, spooners, lovers, ticklers, sleepers, keepers, and balance artists. she'll find me.
