Reflections on Watching Planet Earth

There is honestly nothing better than watching the BBC series Planet Earth and I will defend that statement to the death.  Seriously, the makers of that show just got it right.  Nothing is more beautiful, more humbling, more astounding, or more awe inspiring than the beauty of the natural world.  In concordance with this is the fact that nothing is more freakin awesome than the coolness of the natural world! Animals, have you seen what they can do while still being completely adorable, smart, and just damn awesome?  I would recommend watching Planet Earth anytime, dinner, literally anytime.  It is always appropriate and provides answers to many of life's problems. In conclusion, watch planet earth cause the world is just awesome!

News

He hated to have to say to her what he knew must be said.  Loathing every muscle of his lips for forming the venom coated syllables.  To kill the hope in someone's eyes is truly a horrible thing.  Her eyebrows raised slightly with a sharp intake of breath as her mind was assaulted by the weight of idealism's swift exodus.  She looked at that moment both old and young.  Her back slumped forward the slightest bit as the breath long held captive is released up to heaven, as if all ignorance was flying out of her with that sigh like sound.  After those seconds the body begins to adapt to the new weight.  Cruel evolution which causes the eye to keep seeing, the ear to keep hearing, the hand to reach out, and the heart to beat.

Are you swishing?

There is really nothing quite like the satisfaction of a day well spent.  A day without waste, a day that has been filled up with real thought, movement and art.  All I've really got going for myself today is the completeness that can be gleaned from a piping hot mug of tea, I've plugged out of consciousness and plugged in my large metallic headphones (very space age, and straight outta tron)  I put on a little jazzy something and I'm gone.

5 Haikus for a Saturday Night

Fish, golden scales glow
jumping with vision at night
haunting my delights.

my bed looks so nice
but it's still so damn early,
i need sleep right now.

I think I'm a bitch
and I think that's so ok,
cause we all bitch, right?

Honestly, come on
people, come on now
just recycle, k?

My mind can't make sense
of the haiku's I just wrote,
so, yeah, all for now

Watch this video...

Frustrated

I'm tied up, unable to move, frozen in space by your lack of words.
Your silence speaks volumes as I rip the sugar coating off my tongue 
and let my secret malice spill through my teeth.  I am angry.
Listen to me, I am angry.  
Your lack of response makes me feel impotent as I scream again 
I AM ANGRY.  
Let your wounds bleed you dry becauseI am not here to comfort you I am here for myself and I will make you hear me.  Listen, I was weak, but I am strong.  I was hurt, but I have healed.  You
have to acknowledge my anger to earn my forgiveness.  I am not a memory to you yet...
I am angry.
