we sit on the box our souls used to sleep in

This chapter is closing, another one is opening, it's all happening, it's all right Now. It's alright, Now. I won't likely be blogging here any more. Tumblr is has fun blue backgrounds--hurray! I'll be sharing words and what not at weneverwait.tumblr.com thanks for playing, kids!

Think of me, think of me fondly when we've said goooooooodbye

I leave in the morning. I leave. In the morning. ... Nope, doesn't seem any more real by saying it differently. I almost backspaced back towards the top of the page because I couldn't figure out what to say after that. I'm exhausted. Naturally, I procrastinated till tonight to pack. And weed out junk I don't need. And re-pack. Seriously, how can a few skirts, shirts and necessities take up so

The intuitive mind is a sacred gift and the rational mind is a faithful servant. We have created a society that honors the servant and has forgotten the gift." (Albert Einstein) Just found this and don't feel like pulling out my commonbook to write it down. Tomorrow, tomorrow--and possibly an update on things somewhat new.

I appreciate home and train

Life is a whirlwind that incessantly howls, oh so lowly, in my ear. I exist during the quiet hours, sprawled in my bed (yes, I'm sleeping on a bed again). I trace the rolling quiet during cigarette breaks--now coloring breaks complete with crayons and underwater critters. But it's much too cold in Wisconsin to slip outside for a concentration on color. My bed is five hundred miles away, and no

You will NEVER be merely pretty.

2010-10-26T16:19:00.000-05:00

When I was just a little girl, I asked my mother “What will I be? Will I be pretty? ” Will I be pretty? Will I be pretty? What comes next? Oh right, will I be rich which is almost pretty depending on where you shop. And the pretty question infects from conception passing blood and breath into cells. The word hangs from our mothers’ hearts in a shrill of fluorescent floodlight of worry. “

Scratch and Dent Dreams

Come on in, I’ve got a sale on scratch and dent dreams, whole cases of imperfect ambitions stuff the idealists couldn't sell. Yeah, I know none of its got price tags, you decide how much its worth. And none of its got glossy colored packaging but it all works just fine. I’ve got rainy day swing sets good night kisses and stationary stars still flying at the speed of light. And over

I've fallen in love, happy as houses.

Home is Where the Heart Is The Sounds There was a place in my hometown where I use to wander Above the trees I saw a big black cloud of thunder Summer rain in my face like snowflakes falling from space It was so beautiful, and then I passed the mountains I went coast to coast, and from star to star That's how you learn, just who you are [Chorus] Home is where your heart is Find where you

give me your words, Saul Williams. give me your words for a new world.

I read the most amazing poembook of my life: , said the shotgun to the head by Saul Williams. I wish the world would read it. Here are my favorite quotes from it: "Citizens where is your allegiance? why do you pledge with a covered heart when it needs to be opened?" -p. 171 "intelligence is intuitive you needn't learn to love unless you've been taught to fear and hate." -p. 121 "only through

Lucy in the sky with feelings

From CNN: When she was only two days old, Lucy, a chimpanzee, was purchased by the University of Oklahoma and sent to live with Dr. Maurice Temerlin, a noted psychologist, who, along with his wife, raised the little chimp as if she were their own human child. Lucy was taught how to eat normal meals at the table using silverware. She could dress herself, often choosing to wear skirts just like

Awesome.
