Relative Aperture
A smashed glass cracked
in my last careless act
catching sight off guard.
Points sparkle a dappled dance
across the hardwood floor
spreading as the day grows
and peaking at midday
then rising full in the sky
for the time I hide away.
Until evening’s effulgence
slips through severed slats
catching sight by chance
announcing a worthy time
while bringing rust to rhyme.
From lyric baring branches
pick the last pack of matches
and set alight this balefire
for grieving my darkest desire.
(As we depart, we arrive.)
p.s. thoughtfully holding the line.

Nope. Nice to meet you anyway. How are you tonight?
Ha ha, yeah it was a lot of fun. Alot of giggling and laughing on my part too! ^_^
I ment "Nope" I wasn't talking about LM, not "Nope" I won't forgive you. Geddit?
It has been fun here tonight.

Welcome back 5:47, or have you been here all along? Does it bother you to hear all the negative stuff said about Gerard?
I hope you don't mind my asking.
April 8, 2008 5:50 PM
I can't stop what people think about him. It is sad that he's acting so childish that his fans can see it. But it depresses me too.... Everyone with eyes can see how fucked up he is yet no one is helping. SOme people think "helping" means telling him it's alright and "not judging" him.
It doesn't matter because I don't think he'd even care at this point.
I just wish that some of you could see what a beautiful soul he was and that is maybe still in there somewhere. But without his close friends and family to ground him it will get buried even further. LA is his way of running further away from them and more towards the people who don't question his lifestyle and bring him back down to earth.
tonoight?
Lol, is that a real word?
I've had fun!!!
I just saw that too, BC! ahahahah
It's a cool word.
What are you doing tonoight?
Anon @ 6.01 - are you my buddy?
I just wish that some of you could see what a beautiful soul he was and that is maybe still in there somewhere.
-----------------------------------
I still believe he has that beautiful soul locked away, but I'm at a point where I don't really care about him or his well-being anymore.
Lol. I get it. Sorry, I'm cleaning. "inside" Anon, I need you to e-mail me at yahoo if you don't mind. methodactres@yahoo.com--for reasons you wouldn't think.

I just don't know anymore if he was even that beautiful soul to begin with. People don't want to blame Lyn-z but this really got out of hand when she came into the picture. Is it because he wants to impress her or that he is having fun I don't know. But he has damaged himself. And i don't know if he can come back from that.
Thank you for the answer 6:01. You seem to have a beautiful soul yourself.
Ha ha, me too Safe :)
What are you doing tonoight?
-----------------------------------
You already know that. I am going to be setting a donut trap :)
Good morning
just to clarify a little, it was TJ who said he had something on his arm she couldn't make out, she was on the barrier and he took his jacket of second song.
also I got an email from her sent an hour ago and she is first in line at the comic signing.
which is at 4, so in just under 3 more hours
as for gerard I don't know, I see a little of his life and I hope he's happy with how it's going, if it's not I hope he can sort it out, speculating won't get me anywhere
no more poetry, no more declarations, no more bullshit
Delete the others
I'm not returning here any more
BC, I went to my mates house and watched a DVD. You?
What's up with the threats 6:10?
Hi there, Ergo!
How's life in Australia?
Good morning Ergo. What's wrong anon?
Good Morning Ergo!! *Hug*
Hello Ep how are you?
Hello everyone!
Anon @ 6:10,
Who pissed in your cornflakes today? Jesus.
How about this?
I declare Wednesday to be Poetry about Bullshit Day!
Did I cover all the bases there?
Cool beans. I'm just relaxing and watching some Law and order, Safe. There's a storm coming our way. Yay :)
good thanks siobhan hello safe hello BC
hi MJ
Hi Smokie.
Smokie, should today count as well? We had some bullshit poetry earlier on, many of them with the "F" word in it.
Hi smoke!
Hello S&V20 how are you?
Poetry, declarations and bullshit are all we have here.
BC, I'm ADDICTED to Special Victims Unit!!! Good luck with the storm.
Hi S&V! *Hug*
Well anon, there's that, but we also have great discussions here and good advice to give out, and people there to listen, and great friends.
There's positives here.
Safe, yay, we have something in common. I love SVU. And thank you :)
I'm cool!
See you all in a bit!
Later Smokie
SVU rules
Mj, yes it does. So hard.
Ladies, I have to call it a night!
I'm getting really sleepy.
I had so much fun tonoight. (haha)
I'm still laughing about those shirts!
Nighty night, you all!❤
Have fun!
Real hard. I've never met anyone who liked it before. I love you lot.
Bye Fisch!!!
6:10, if you are addressing Mayo, and he knows who you are, wouldn't a phonecall or e-mail be more effective? I'm sure after a thousand or so comments he just starts skimming and he may never read yours.
ok anon so you'll be off then?
take care and have a nice life away from the bullshit poetry and declarations
Goodnight and sweet dreams my lovely pancake-Zilla. Aw I love you too Safe
♥
Sorry guys, I would have loved to talk to you longer but my FUCKIN computer didn’t allow me to tonight.I better go.
Anyway,it was nice to see you all again. :D
Mayo, I’m too tired now to try and understand completely your entry,
but I really like the image you’ve created with your words.
SS,your “make a wish” note means really a lot to me, just so you know. Thanks.
Take care, guys. See you tomorrow.
Love you all!
*HUGS & KISSES*
Goodnight Siobhan
I love you like, forever and ever, and um, ever ^_^
Goodnight and sweet dreams Bella *hugs*
Bye Bella!
No emails, no phone calls, no contact
bye siobhan sweet dreams
bye Bella have a great night and tomorrow
Goodnight Bella and welcome back
well anon at 6:37 it's a shame you feel that way but I'm sure you'd know if it was for the best
take care
Hi guys. First this:
BAD DAY AT WORK.
Now, getting back to the little things:
But at a show last year, he asked the ladies to fuck themselves and he wanted to hear them moan for him. That is no different than Tommy Lee saying he wants to see some titties.
Those are just a few, there are so many more, but I don't have the time to find them for you right now.
These contradictions are not just a case of 'growing up,' however. These are fundamental core ethical values that you just don't change over night like you would change your socks.
Quoted for major truth.
I feel badly if the drinking and drugs and LA stuff is true; I hope it’s not, and if it is, then I wish it wasn’t. But I have no call in Gerard’s personal life. It’s what he did to the band that lets me down everytime. I don’t have the time or energy to speak out against everyone who acts like a sexist pig and treats women like objects just because they have power and a big mouth, but when someone does it under the flag of feminism I’m still going to have something to say about it, that’s for sure.
Because I know this may sound odd, but when someone objectifies women, I take it personally. Like, it hurts my feelings personally to see girls get treated that way, and it further galls me when the person doing it is going, “Yeah, but I’m a feminist and this is how feminists behave.”
However when he’s up there acting like a tool, I’m gonna roundly mock him the way I (and most others) roundly mocked Tom Cruise for the same behavior. The way my friends and I would roundly mock each other if we jumped the sofa, too. Because it’s ridiculous and you have to find some humor in that.
i just think it's a maturity or age conflict. the immature and/or young fans are finding his behavior as a 31 year old man off-putting because they dont understand it.
You, however, have this bass ackwards. It’s the teeny fansheep who are eating it up, and Gerard knows this.
by "anti rock and roll" he was referring to the stereotypical rock band mantra of boozing it up and getting laid and treating their fans like shit.
Which is what he’s doing now, at least two out of the three.
Okay, I'm actually kinda tired of making the same point over and over again I guess.
Onto better things!
Check out this hilarious RECENT interview with Adam and Matt! They talk about side projects (Burbank Hayes,) porn names, the upcoming show--they refuse to name their new guitarist yet--and check this out guys, it looks as if Adam has taken a shower! O_O His hair is all shiny, gotta love it.
Also, this is their new MySpace post:

New Music and Tour Stories
Hello there! First off we want to apologize between updates but the music/writing is in full swing right now and we have to say, we are quite pleased with the results so far. We promise we’ll let you hear it as soon as we can. It’s so amazing to us to have shows on the horizon too. We can’t wait to get out and play again and introduce you to the newest member of the Taking Back Sunday family!
In the meantime, we have a fun topic to ask about. We want to hear about your craziest show gone wrong story. Meaning you had tickets to a show and you failed a test and got grounded and couldn’t go, got a flat tire on the way there, brought the wrong tickets, etc. It doesn’t have to be a trip to one of our shows but do tell us what show you were heading to if it wasn’t. Have fun, let’s hear em:
(Bolding is my own.) So, good news for us, yeah? :D
Good God, you people be crazy, the rumors were true. Thanks for the heads up, E.
6:37, have you ever read the book "He's Just Not That Into You"?
Take care anon. Hey K.
Be back later guys. Must go...shower before the storm hits.
Night Everyone!!!
I hope BC doesn't get blow away!!
Hello Kapu. LAter BC and goodnight safe.
i will be back after a while. I must eat and shower.
Ha ha Safe. Goodnight and sweet dreams love. See you later mj.
Now I go shower.
6:37, I will keep that in mind, when as my boy fucks me
Method Actress why don't you ask me what you want to ask on here. I'm not going to give out any information that I haven't already said.
goodnight safe
sweet dreams!
and anon - ooh mama but we're all crazy now!
Hello all!
Another in depth G-Way discussion? I feel bad for him. Why? Because he seems so confused and scared. Tomorrow's his 31st birthday, and I'm hoping that he spends it with his wife and family and friends.
hello PH *hug*
well he's playing a concert for his birthday, TJ will be there.
and she has about 1/2 hr until the signing starts !!
PH, his wife will be in Holland and he will be in Portland:(
Hey Ergo and Anon!!
<3
Well, doesn't that suck? I mean, them being apart... not the TJ part!! =]
I'm pretty sure I'd be petrified the day before my 31st birthday.. wait, I'm shit scared to turn 16!!
6:55, I think 6:37 is addressing Mayo, unless you are Mayo. I guess you have mentioned kissing boys before.
There really are alot of anons lately..
PH it's funny but I always get more icky about turning the _1 ie 31, 41 etc as it means you are "in" your 30's or 40's turning the 30 or 40 kinda doesn't feel the same as being "in" the decade
lol.
Oh god! I bet that's scary! My dad is turning 51 this year.. I really should ask him how he feels about that...
=]
I'm going to go and clean my ears, then do some homework. =]
Byee all!!<3
bye PH!
I'm off to the gym too, back later everyone
One evening in 1974, John Lennon met his girlfriend May Pang and a few other friends for dinner at a Los Angeles restaurant. Lennon got drunk, visited the ladies' bathroom... and emerged with a sanitary napkin taped to his forehead.
The gang then visited the Troubador Club, where Lennon, still wearing his unusual head dress, shouted obscenities at the club's performers. When their waitress refused to serve him, Lennon complained, "Don't you know who I am?" "Yeah," the waitress tartly replied. "You're some asshole with a Kotex on his head!"
At a rock festival in 1992, Nirvana frontman Kurt Cobain donned a hospital gown and rolled onto the stage in a wheelchair. "I have absolutely no respect for the English people," he declared. "They make me sick."
SNAUSAGES!
SNAUSAGES!
Nirvana frontman Kurt Cobain donned a hospital gown and rolled onto the stage in a wheelchair.
Gerard is really trying to BE him I guess.
Gerard, is that you trying to defend your stupid ass?
People who are normally good people tend to act up and act out when they are doing drugs.
Hallo Lovelies.
How's everyone today?
-A
Anyone wanna go on AIM?
Well Mayo, I wonder if you're around. I wonder if you understood the madwhackery that was my Crackberry post this morning. Something like, "You're like a crazy person, what are you doing deleting your posts?" and "You'd better not delete my one or I'll shank you." Something like that?
I've deleted posts too, quite a few. No reason you shouldn't delete yours.
They do mean a lot to us though, you know, those diamonds. They're kept off the market enough already.
Also I kinda liked it when you were snarky and you showed your teeth. It was kinda hot. ;D
Well, you know I had to say something about it, because when don't I?
Take care of yourself Mayo, hope to hear from ya soon.
course you don't owe us any explanation it's your fucking blog!!!
True enough, but I'd like to know just the same.
Anyone get to the bottom of this?
RW, what the Jesus is going on around here?
-A
That's true RW, we aren't owed an explanation, but I can't deny I'm curious. :)
No idea, A!
I get home from a sucessful shop at the mall to find that a blogger black hole has been eating Mayo's tail end-first.
Uh... what's up, man?
Hullo A & K! :D
Who else is in here right now?
a blogger black hole has been eating Mayo's tail end-first.
O_O
SuPERMASSIVE BLACK HOOOOOLE
Mayo, is you spring cleaning??
Is climate change eating your ass??
Or are you just having a bad day?
OM NOM NOM.
0_0
Ptooey, this tastes rank
But really, you had to expect it. I eat comments, why not posts? Some times, you need a real meal, and other times, family drops by unexpectedly.
Well, you didn't ask me if you could delete them, Mayo. Damn you. You're gonna make me go all Royal Bitch on you, right?
Just playin'!
Seriously though, WTF? I mean, they are just where we can't see them, right? Maybe?
I dunno. O_o
I mean, I don't know if your words are worth saving but mine damn sure were.
Bwah!
I wuv you, Mayo! ^_^
Too right, Salt & Vinegar!
blogger just ate my comment out
By the way, I was at the mall tonight. I bought you a lovely black & white rain jacket and some black ribbed leggings :)
Oh no, not blogger again. You ate like, 6 or 7 of my comments during the past few days. Shame on you ^_^
blogger just ate my comment out
Lucky comment.
For me? For me, RW?
You shouldn't have!
Oh wait, I always tell you to buy me something so yes you should have!
Thank you! ^_^
Weeeiirrrd..
I went to the mall too!
Unfortunately, that MCR shirt is too big. I gotta wait for a small to come in.
-A
What the fuck's up?
I boughts you sumfin and you didn't even have to ask me, S&V! See how much I love you!!
No idea, Solly!
A, the H&M MCR shirt I bought is too big for me too. The smallest size they had was men's medium. I think I'm going to take my scissors to it this summer & girl it up.
American Idol is fucking lame.
Oh shizzle.
That's the one I was looking at RW. Maybe I can take it in a little...
-A
I ♥ you, RW! Like fo'real!
Clay Aiken is my idol
he is so hawwwt!
It may come in size small, A. Maybe they were just out.
RW, I should have asked while I was there. I like that store though, lots of good prices.
-A
S&V: :D
Where is Clay Aiken now? Is he working at American Eagle Outfitters?
And that tee is has a really cool design, A. If you have to buy the medium, I'm sure something can be done with it.
I figure all the teenage fangirls bought up all the size smalls.
Anon, I think clay aiken looks like Chucky.
No, Solly. He's at Old Navy. ^_^
Well, they finally announced the lineup for V Fest here in Calgary... and I'm not too sure I wanna go yet.
-A
He's got a new album coming out soon, Solly. And I heard something about him starring in some Broadway show.
Maybe he works at American Eagle Outfitters on his days off.
No way...I thought he was at The Gap.
Hey all! How's it going?
Do you know, there was actually a segment on CNN today questioning whether American Idol is in its last season. Apparently the 3 judges were on Larry King last night.
The world is becoming odder every day.
J
I'm not going to the one here, A. No one playing that I want to see.
Actually, it's pretty slim pickings for concerts and music festivals in Toronto over the summer :( It's just not doing it for me like it did last year.
I'm in a pissy mood tonight. WTF?
It is apparantly a burning question, J!
I've been in a pissy mood all day, Solly. I blame G-Way.
No, really.
I feel like saying bleepity bleep bleeping bleep bleep words...but I won't.
*wonders if PPU is spying, waiting for Solly to slip*
*mumbles under breath...grrrr*
Ha! Gerard is gonna be older than me tomorrow!
Nah-nah-nah-nah-nah!
RW, you're right about the design. Problem is, it hangs to my knees! Most of my shirts do. When I was at H&M I had to shop the 12-14 range of clothes. Yes, I have the body of... well, let's not go there.
Also, our lineup isn't anything to cream yourself over either. Overall, Warped has me more interested, simply by adding Rise Against. They love us :)
-A
Your words are what give value to this space.
Never do that again.
The same could be said of you, Mayo.
But still 9 years younger than me, S&V! 0_0
Clay Aiken is sexier than a turtle neck on a giraffe.
I haven't been too thrilled myself, SDock, RW. My mom both started and ended the piss-fest for me, and in between there were a doctor, a jaywalker not paying attention who I almost hit, a huge SUV that nearly slammed into the driver's (my) side of the car, and WAL-MART SHOPPERS.
And then Dumplin crapped on the rug in about 4 places, right before I cleaned the catbox.
DO NOT WANT.
J
Hi J, how are you? *hugs and waves to L*
Hi solly, amy, RW *squeeze*
Amy, did anything happen with the roommate? ^_^
RW: O_O
Hee-hee. I love doing that.
RW,
YES.
HE'S GONE!!!!
-A
I missed The Used at Taste of Chaos last year. It was held out of town, so I didn't go. Damn, I wanted to see them! But I thought the'd be touring on their own at some point for the release of Lies for the Liar.
Maybe they did, and I missed that too :/ *kicks self*
RW,
YES.
HE'S GONE!!!!
0_0
I ♥ dread boy.
^_^
*squeezes BC*
Hey BC! *hugs and kisses* If you read my long ranty comment, you can see how I am today. :P L's ok, little better than yesterday but still hurting.
Hey Amy! *hugs* Should I ask: how's the job?
J
My mom both started and ended the piss-fest for me,
Mine often does that for ,too. She's good at that sort of thing. Actually, I've been dreading my trip out to Saskatchewan next month. Nothing undermines my self-esteem quite like a visit to see the folks.
Has anybody else not gotten their S//C merch yet? We ordered on March 22 and still haven't gotten it.
J
Well, they finally announced the lineup for V Fest here in Calgary... and I'm not too sure I wanna go yet.
Yeah, I just saw the lineup for you guys. I don't blame you :|
Didn't MCR come here last year?
Andddddd a hello to all you guys.
No. I. Haven't.
Solly already got hers like a week ago.
GRRRRRRRR!!!!!!
Dread Boy's hair looks like pube branches.
I have my Leathermouth shirt. I got mine last week.
Ooh! What did you guys order, J?
*glomp*
RW, it amazes me how she can't remember that I'm allergic to tomatoes, but she can remember that she paid my bills for me for two years and EXACTLY HOW MUCH SHE SPENT, and holds it over my head. AAAAAGGGGHHH.
J
Didn't MCR come here last year?
MCR was here twice last year.
We are having an MCR drought this year :(
Poor J. Here's another hug and for L *hugs* And to deal with walmart shoppers, such tragedy. Last night I gave a friend my blessing because they told me they have to make a trip to there later this week ^_^
Yep. Sounds like moms, J. Mine has that kind of a selective memory too.
Heya Bob! *glomp* How's by you? We ordered a Leathermouth shirt each, a button pack each, and L ordered some patches--which were FINALLY in stock, yay! It was supposed to be shipped on the 3rd, so...unless it's coming by United Parcel Slugs, it shoulda been here by now. Did you order anything?
Smoke, what'd you get?
J
Hi ctv
I want MCR here. I just, you know, don't want Gerard here.
:|
Bob could do vocals.
Hello, BC!
Aaw! Hey J (and L)!
The job is getting better. I'm getting to the point now where I have to see the first paycheck to decide if this is really it.
Not to sound greedy, but I need to pay bills too, you know?
-A
I would so be there for Bob on vocals!
Sounds good, J. I guess sometimes these kind of things take time. It'll come soon, I'm sure.
I'd like some s//c merch, but I'm not too fond of buying online, ya know?
I buy online all the time, CTV. Sometimes it's a little too convenient, ya know?
*noticed the time*
Ooops! Time for my shower! Be back soon...
Thanks for the extra Os and Xs, BC, they always come in handy.
CTV, I think they should take turns on vocals myself. THAT would be a show...
J
I buy online all the time, CTV. Sometimes it's a little too convenient, ya know?
Yup.
And, well, we're Canadian so we're pretty limited compared to the States, so I can see why.
I ordered evvveeeeeryyyyyttthiinng!
^_^
CTV, lol, I don't think none of us want gerard there. More than anything, next week I'm gonna pretend he's not there on the stage and that its someone else ^_^
I know, right?
So J., how are you guys feeling? Everything OK with you two?
BC, I remember you ordering tickets for the MCR show! You're going to two, right?
Enjoy your shower RW
Smoke, did you get the email from S//C about the shipping? It said that some people were lucky and got their shipments before Bamboozle, and others would get theirs after. It said not to contact them, but I'm just wondering how long we should wait?
J
CTV, yep. Part of me is excited and part of me is not, but I'm just gonna be there to hang and have a good time with friends and to roam around the city.
Aw, now BC, don't be that way! WE want to see Gerard this year. The last times we saw him he was waaaaaay out there on whatever he was on, and he just didn't do well. He's got to be doing better now. He looks and sounds great comparatively, you know? Plus, we'll get to see Mikey, which we didn't last year.
I'm really excited about the shows! We've got 2, maybe 3, lined up.
J
So, um... anyone wanna give me two cents on this?
(The Severely Abridged Version)
A Goose Affair
Poster: Hey! A city in the USA is oiling Canada Goose eggs to prevent them from hatching more babies because the town feel that they are a nuisance! That's evil and WRONG! Those poor babies!
Commenters: Well, they can be a nuisance some times, especially where they're slightly domesticated and..
Poster: Evil, evil, evil!! Horrible people! Anyone who agrees with them is a freak!
Commenters: ... And they're really quite aggressive, I know someone who had his nose broken by one, and oh, the poop...
Poster: Sick, disgusting Americans! Why don't they just do it the humane way and kill all the geese with a shotgun?
Commenters: Wait, WAT.
Thoughts?
-A
hello everyone!
How are you all?
There was an accident on the highway, I always hate that as it makes me wonder if it was someone I know. I hope not, and that they are ok, tha ambulance screamed past and it involved a truck, it's a really bad intersection
Try to make the best out of it, love. You paid to have a good time, do exactly that. And then when you come back, tell us everything ^_^.
Hi Ergo, I'm glad it wasn't YOU in the accident! *hugs*
Amy...unless you're comparing the posters and commenters to the infestation of anons we had today, I'm not sure I follow.
J
Oh Mayo my dear you would be amazed, amazed! ^_^
Dude, this would be like, a perfect time for RW and her signature face.
The one time she isn't here.
A, your post is making me channel Alan Partridge:
"I suppose the only humane way to kill a bird of prey, is death by firing squad."
Oh, J. Just the content. How the poster goes from telling us how evil it is to prevent goose eggs from hatching, to saying it's more humane to shoot and kill the parents.
I found it odd that this poster went from one extreme to the other.
-A
Yeah, ok, now I see. Put it down to Numb-Brain in Crazy-Land today. :P
Kind of similar to pro-lifers saying "Kill the abortion doctors who kill the babies!" or something of that sort.
J
oh amyranth congrats on the leaving of the roommate!
and re the geese, if they are a problem something should be done, preventing the geese breeeding is a reasonable and probably less expensive method of control. I would assume the oiling is considered the most effective method, though it seems a bit cruel I again assume the eggs stop developing due to lack of oxygen, perhaps there is another method, but teh shotgun isn't effective, 1) they scare the others away 2) many animals can survive and dier slowly from injury or lead poisoning which is bad environmentally too.
we have the same problem with Ibis in some areas
I don't know if you heard of teh kangaroo cull (of I think a couple of hundred)which is in the news and was spoken about by Paul McCartney, but it is a fact that animals can overbreed when in an environment they are protected from predators and have more and year round food supplies. They are going to tranquilize then euthanase the kangaroos to reduce the population, which is the most humane method. Protestors have suggested they get relocated but there are a LOT of kangaroos in australia (heck we can have 5 or so in our yard each afternoon and morning) and relocating them would stress the naturally occurring populations in the areas they are taken to. And more than that would be killed on the road each day. It's never the preferable course to cull animals but sometimes it is the only viable option
Dude, this would be like, a perfect time for RW and her signature face.
The one time she isn't here.
What did I miss??

Hi ergo, I'm glad you're okay. Thanks CTV. I sure will, and despite the risk, I'll try to take pics and I shall tell you about how it went and since two shows means two reviews :)

Oh Mayo my dear you would be amazed, amazed! ^_^
