Hell is other people.

About Me


my youthful lady will have other lovers
yet none with hearts more motionless than i
when to my lust she pleasantly uncovers
the thrilling hunger of her possible body.

Noone can be whose arms more hugely cry
whose lips more singularly starve to press her-
noone shall ever do unto my lady
what my blood does,when i hold and kiss her

(or if sometime she nakedly invite
me all her nakedness deeply to win
her flesh is like all the 'cellos of night
against the morning's single violin)

more far a thing than ships or flowers tell us,
her kiss furiously me understands
like a bright forest of fleet and huge trees
-then what if she shall have a hundred fellows?

she will remember,as i think,my hands

(it were not well to be in this thing jealous.)
My youthful lust will have no further ladies.

Existential.

There used to be all of these illusory importantthings going on to keep me occupied, and then there were important things, and now there's nothing. Just this moment of sitting here listening to a new ...

And summer will make good for all of our sins.

This year has been so long. In a couple bad ways but in a lot of good. It'll be nice to have some time to decompress though. I'm really looking forward to summer. I used to think that as you got older...

There's a certain feeling.

It fills you up when you feel empty and lost. It makes everything alright. You should try it sometime. You dont have to talk about it or think about it or even know that it's there. It just is and tha...

Death is a tragic thing, yet holds a distinct beauty.

Oh thou that liftest up thy hands in prayer,Robed in the sudden ruin of glad homes,And trampled fields which from green dreaming wokeTo bring forth ruin and the fruit of death,Thou pitiful, we turn ou...

Laika, we miss you.

It's good to compare. Like Ingemar and Saga. Sometimes life is like being launched into space for human progress. We just orbit over and over, watching the lives of those down below. And as we eat the...
