Construction paper world.

My inspiration arrives suddenly and from a memory that could have easily been abandoned because I was so consumed. So many exceptional moments could have been lost while I spent time in orbit.

Who would I be without that lost reality…and your face, your words, and your touch?

You sing karaoke
without knowing
the words.
Can’t read,
but can kill it
in a verse.
That sweet dance,

a remembrance.

With that in mind, I continue...

I am fascinated with the everyday condition. I watch and listen and I am prompted to return the favor with ink and fiber. I am captivated by the remote.

I am drawn to those who misguidedly assume they have little to offer. I admire those with the biggest hearts, and the quietest egos. And the vibrant, passionate, strong willed and self assured also encourage my craft.

The dark and pensive, the quiet and plotting, the spirited and confined, the naïve and unafraid…any combination a profit, all notions sublime.

The gravity of a book, a wise old woman, a tale told in three verses and a chorus repeated twice, the advice of those who know infinitely so much more, and the unexpected bit of hope that arrives when you say I love you.








p.s. paint your walls a deviceful shade of change and then you will know why.

Okay, does this sound weird to anyone else?

My Gay Friend has no idea WHO George Micheal is.

Anyone?

Smoke,

Come and bake me some bunny cookies!

Smoke said...

WTF?

I thought everyone knew who George Michael was.

Martha Smith-Jones said...

Amy most religions freak me out. It is to easy for people to go over board with it. And nothing you can say will make them stop and think about what they are doing. Because they have the word of God to back them up.


Any way I am going into lurk mode. I will off to bed pretty soon.

Goodnight

sdock10 said...

Well, ummm if I were gay, I might deny I knew George Michael too.

...just sayin


On the other hand, he is kinda old.

Smoke said...

Sdock!

Everytime you type out cookies all I'm seeing is cooter.

STOP IT!

Smoke said...

Sweet dreams, MJ!

Amyranth said...

Goodnight Martha, see you again soon!

Smoke, you're telling me! The worst part is I remember clearly dancing with him to WHAM!'S "Wake Me Up" when we were 5.

Anyway, the newsflash is the man is on tour, and he's coming to Canada.

Hi, Mayo.

Mayo, I am very, very sorry for what happened here today, and what has been happening. This is your place. I know you want peace here. It would be nice, wouldn't it?

I really just don't know what to do though, Mayo. I've tried laughing at them, laughing with them, agreeing with them, ignoring them, and they still spam it up. one contingent of anons says that it will stop if I leave the blog. Mayo, I want you to have a nice blog, but in all honesty, I really do not wish to leave. And I'm never going to do the dramatic exit with getting my robe stuck in the door. Then yanking the door back open and going "And another thing!" a bunch of times. I don't like dramatic exits. I don't like exits.

So, I did not and will not address the stuff some folks were saying today, but please do not take my reticence as an admission of guilt to any kind of evilness or machinations. I just don't want the drama. If I answer them, it will keep on. Hell, if I don't answer them it will.

I don't know what to do, Mayo. And I know you probably don't either, and I'm just so sorry.

S(S)S: thank you for your words, and I am sorry to you, too. I wish you didn't witness that stuff. Like I said, it is posted here obviously to embarrass some of us. And because they know that my Ma lurks here and they just want to make it as unpleasant as possible. I'm always so sorry when she has to read that, too.

To the people who got called names today, I really hope that it didn't hurt you. Consider the source, remember it's the internet, and people go crazy when they are hiding behind a computer screen. Opinions are one thing. Accusations, rude words, calling people pieces of crap, sluts, ugly, pathetic, and other much nastier things, are entirely different.

I hope this will pass. And Mayo, again, I'm sorry this is happening.

Amy, wow. I think what was annoying about him was when I saw some of the interviews, he acted like he knew everything about taking meds and such.

Goodnight dreaming reality, RW. Pleasant dreams. Hi KD, how are you?

Anima, don't worry, I don't understand much about the mormon religion. One of my favorite authors is a mormon as well.

His voice is so raw when he sings that line. It is my favorite part. Well one of my favorite parts.

Well, bedtime!

I hope tomorrow is better for everyone. I really do. We can make it right. I believe that.

Mayo,

How did Monday go for you? Dude, mine was wickety wickety whack! Did I spell that even remotely close to right? Oh well, oh well, oh well...I swear people in Georgia musta been coming down from their sugary Easter high or something because they were all in like crazy fucker bitch mode today. Surely, tomorrow will be better, right? Feel free to lie just to make me feel better!

So, I am going to say it again. I am sorry for what keeps happening here. I am still trying to pull this place back together again. Cupcakes work wonders, wouldn't you agree?

You know what's funny. I almost feel like I fit in here. Almost...but then all the damn name calling and hate spewing takes me back. And I realize, I haven't come that far at all. I'm still the uncool kid. The one who liked her music a little too much and maybe should have tried to like people just a little more. But it was hard when they were so fucking mean all the time. I still feel like a loser most of the time, Mayo, but when I'm here...I'm not alone. I've met a group of people who are just like me. A broken, twisted, mangled, lonely, nerdy, uncool, pathetic, ugly, beautiful fucked up bunch...my friends.

God, we have issues and more emotional baggage than Hartsfield-Jackson airport, but we've found this place and each other and we're working it out.

Thank you for allowing this to happen.


So Mayo, how cool are you?

Love to YOU Always,
S

p.s. Always the last one picked for the team.

Fred, left speaker, minor key change down.

Anonymous said...

First of all, I'm not sure if it's a mistake or not, but I always love it when I can hear the guitarist's fingers slide on the strings and it makes that dry squeaky sound. ANd I love the way it's syncopted too, the guitar parts here.

1:30 is the first really dramatic part of this song. It's where you start to get the tingles. Well me, anyway.

Am I the only one who really loves the way Adam starts his words?

Starting at 2:34, remember this, Splash? i said once it sounded like a Led Zeppelin song but I couldn't think of which one. It sounds like The Rain Song. Then, I love the way Adam sings the next few lines in that really small voice. And the guitar is weirdly distorted here, right? Wobbly, like an old record or even more reminiscent of a music box?

Then you can hear him suck his breath in through his teeth like he always does. Sometimes that annoys me but I really like it here.

Then of course at 2:53, that first, soaring "SAFE" that he does, but what I like best about that is how his voice is layered there. I always sing the second part when I sing along.

3:20 is like another song-gasm, right? "Is this all too familiar? Does it happen all the time?" Lyrically I love how the statement from earlier is now the question.

"I'm just asking you to hear me; could you please just once jsut hear me?" The phrasing is totally conversational but it fits the meter perfectly.

I love everything that happens from 3:33 to 3:37 on "more than anything you wanted to be right." The way the strings and guitar have built it up till then and just let loose, and how his voice rises on "wanted," I mean honestly, who thinks to do these things? It's perfect.

I also like that he takes that quick breath between the two "you"s in "still it's you, you, its you I can't deny." Again, usually I'd be thinking, "Breath control, learn it!" But it's too emotional, I think without his half-hysterics it wouldn't mean nearly as much to me.

The whole ending is perfectly satisfying because the guitar, bass and drums become relentless for the last few phrases until it just goes back to the really mellow and sweet harmonics, yet the guitar is still kind of humming along till the very end, right?

Oh my god, I could not love this song more.

Well, 2:32 onwards, the continuous stairstep fashion repeated.

SS,

My friend, thank you for continuing to be an inspiration to me. I have to admit that I get lazy sometimes. I take the easy path. I need to stop doing that and reach out along my way. I know it will be hard, but anything in life worthwhile usually is, right?

Still learning...

Faith, hope, love

Always,

Pretty sure you got all of it! Damn.

Amyranth said...

Haha! PH, it's not that bad! it's the truth!

My cousin is totally terrified of butterflies, it's actually kinda funny.

Picture this, a breezy summer day and you're sitting on the back porch.

Suddenly, a little white butterfly ambles by....

And you hear a shriek and see someone moving fast than the speed of light across the lawn, arms waving frantically, legs kicking like they're being bitten by hundreds of little crabs.

Yup. That's my cousin. She's in her thirties and still does it!

I feel bad for her little one, because he loves butterflies SO MUCH, and yet he gets to see his mom wig out every time he brings one home.

Dude, it's been hell of a day. My sincerest apologies again for all of this muck.

Instead of rambling on tonight about anything or everything, I just want you to listen to this.

It's amazingly creative. They take you on a journey through time it feels like. They make motion stop. And sometimes I stop breathing without meaning to when I listen to it.

Have a good night, Mayo. I hope you're okay. That's really all I want.



SS:

Many apologies to you as well. Thank you for what you do here. You may not think of it as anything, but trust that it means a lot.

For you, sir.

I don't need to explain it. Lyrically, it's such an amazing song that I'm so glad was written. I think you will understand its meaning.

Goodnight, SS. Sleep well.

Anonymous said...

Past midnight
I stand at my window
Gazing up to the sprinkle of stars
That decorate the cloudless sky

One lone twinkling point
Stands out beyond all the rest:
Brighter, more dazzling, larger than life
A beacon calling to me from afar

Is that your star, my lover?
Does its brilliance reflect your own?
I feel as if it shines above you
To guide me to your arms

Reaching out, I touch the glass,
Its cool surface not detracting from
The warmth my hand encounters
As I imagine our fingertips meeting

Can you feel me where you are?
Have you gone to your window?
Did you find my star, winking above me,
Leading you ever onward home?

For home is where our stars come together
It matters not if that be
In the humblest abode ever built for Man
Or in a mansion under the endless sky



My sweet, take heart, for no matter what happens, your Angel will always be here. I love you always.

The heavens alight, the sweet words of might,Falls against the sweet lips of serenity.
A kiss for you, maybe steal a few, but I shall have my dignity

Why not grace me with your mighty sword, over and done with, a quick sharp thrust through the heart. Is this is what has become of the heavens above, let hope and glory float down to me and never betray my heart again.

I trusted and planned for your heart, you took mine and made a new start.

Anonymous said...

Goodness, Ergoproxy, do take care! Should you leave the kitchen? Go to another room?

Amyranth said...

I think she needs a pet mongoose.

:S

Oh god, I don't hate snakes, but this scares me!

ergoproxy said...

I'm on the other side of the room on a chair
as long as it stays under the fridge


NOT what I need in the afternoon!

Amyranth said...

Ergo, can you call your husband to warn him?

-A

ergoproxy said...

this just struck me as so surreal for you guys!

like missT and the earthquake

I'll be ok angel they don't really attack but getting it out/dead will be fun (not)

Amyranth said...

Beyond surreal.

Right now, I'm googling snakes, is it a Munga?

-A

Amyranth said...

I meant, Mulga.

ergoproxy said...

I called him and he's coming home right now to save me!

well we can't leave it in the house, funnily the cat has been strange about going neart the Hot water system for a couple of weeks....

not a good thought

I shall wait here with the others until I know you are safe, friend Ergoproxy. Be watchful, and you shall be all right. I have confidence in you.

ergoproxy said...

in aussie snakes it looked like either a Brown or a Taipan - If I'm lucky it's neither but they are the colour it seemed to be

Amyranth said...

Ergo, is he good with catching snakes?

....

Well that was a STUPID question.

It's like a cliffhanger O_o

Amyranth said...

BC, by the time he gets home I'm not gonna have fingers left!

*chews on them a bit*

ergoproxy said...

it's like a mulga amyranth but that particular type is a bit further west ours is an eastern brown - but they are all about


thanks angel I'll be ok it's more just a big annoyance, but a bit scary
It could be a while before I can tell you what happened

Amyranth said...

We don't get snakes around these parts. Too cold for them here.

I've seen grass snakes and garter snakes, but nothing like that before, unless it was behind layers of glass.

ergoproxy said...

He is good amyranth

*looks up with hero adoration eyes*

he has lived out here all his life, you just have to be really careful, they get pretty pissed off pretty quick.

as long as we know where it is.

I'm off to meet the bus, I'll get on again in about 20 min

Anonymous said...

That is all right, Ergoproxy, this situation takes precedence over anything else right now. Ladies, perhaps we should attempt to lighten the mood for a bit. Any suggestions?

Anonymous said...

I could chew on my nails!! I hope you stay safe Ergo. I think we should take Angel's suggestion and discuss about something lighter.

Amyranth said...

*takes a breath*

Okay, lighten the mood... um...

When I asked Ergo if her husband was good at catching snakes, then said that it was a stupid comment, what I meant was:

Amy: Hey, Ergo, is your husband good at catching snakes?

Ergo: Oh, God no. That's why I called him. I have a really good life insurance policy.

...

Yeah, well it was funny to me. Possibly because it's past my bedtime.

And what a wonderful clear chilly night it is!! How are you lovely ladies tonight?

Anonymous said...

angel, stop wasting your love on this person, find someone new.

Anonymous said...

Oh Amyranth, that was a noble effort! Unfortunately my repertoire of jokes is pitifully small. Bleeding Chaos, do you know any?

Rasputins Revenge said...

Hello Bleeding Chaos and Ergoproxy!! I see there has been much brawling around here lately....hmmmm

Rasputins Revenge said...

Awful lot of mean words flying around. Shouldnt this be a place to get away from all of that.

Amyranth said...

Hay Anon!

Slag off!

Amyranth said...

Triston, that is true.

It's amazing what happens behind closed doors though.

Anonymous said...

Anonymous, my love is not wasted on this person. Why would you assume such a thing? Hello, Triston Anatole. How was hunting tonight?

ergoproxy said...

Hubby is home , it could be a tree snake now I just saw it's head again
back soon with details

Anonymous said...

Why should angel give so much love for nothing in return?

Rasputins Revenge said...

Hmmmm...yes closed doors...can be truly amazing.and hunting doesn't start till around 3..that seems to be the time the lost and easily forgotten are stumbling about, then I have this mist show I put on a couple times a night...I am a very busy vamp.

Anonymous said...

Take care Ergo. Good evening Triston. Nice to see you again. How are you? Angel, unfortunately, I know no such jokes.

Triston, when you become a part of this blog, you may have to develop a back bone. Harsh words have been spewing at this place for a very long time now.

Because anon, sometimes, all it takes is to give or express your love to another, and sometimes, it can change someone's life or outlook.

Amyranth said...

Why should Anonymous care so much about something that is none of their business?

Anonymous said...

Anonymous, may I ask you, do you know my love? You assume I get nothing in return, but if you do not know either of us, how can you make that assumption?

Rasputins Revenge said...

Harsh words...the spawn of self doubt. Why would we even care what another thinks of us! I play my own games and have my own fun. I care for the ones that are there for me. Wish for a few that are not...and could give less of a care for the rest. I just try to have fun.

Anonymous said...

Triston, I like your outlook.

Amyranth said...

Harsh words...the spawn of self doubt.

Around here, they're weapons. It's not always the anons that come with ammunition.

It seems as if our anonymous visitor has departed. Triston Anatole, we have not spoken at any length. What do you do besides your vampiring tasks?

Anonymous said...

Goodness, I am sorry. That did not sound gracious at all. I meant to ask what profession you hold?

Rasputins Revenge said...

Angel you send all the love poems you want...somehow someway they will always reach your loves heart.

Rasputins Revenge said...

Well Angel, actually I am a guitar player. I haunt all around the gulfcoast area tormenting people with my noise.

ergoproxy said...

ok it was a tree snake about 4 foot long

but it's dead now, it's non venomous but we couldn't catch it it kept going under the fridge then cupboard then fridge

thanks for your concern
everyone!

Anonymous said...

A guitar player? I'm impressed.

Anonymous said...

Poor snake, but I'm glad you're safe Ergo.

Amyranth said...

Aaaw. Poor snake.

Oh well. Sadly, c'est la vie.

Glad to hear you're alright though Ergo!

I really love playing in the French Quarter. The largest crowd I ever played for indoors was at a bar called "The Madd Ass Saloon next to a bar called Razzos. About 500 people...It was incredible. Bourbon Street was packed that night and we were the only band in the area doing any alternative music.

A musician, how wonderful! I do so love music. The position fits well with your lifestyle. Thank you for your words of encouragement. My love does respond in kind, so I know they see my words.
