my saddest year yet and still I didn't die so oh well. another year another tear lol

[a-dancing-bug]

My local graveyard is nestled in the foothills, close to the Rocky Mountains. I find that our skeletons enjoy vintage cloth scraps, especially doilies. even old cast iron shards will suffice if you can't find cloth.

universal sign for you a poem

I am my fathers son, first born, living testament, immortal,

He gifted me with wit, strength, and the ability to learn,

Over time i grew, yearning for more,

I saw wonders, places the human race had never been before,

I killed giants and calmed masses,

Gifted gold and silver to poor,

Kissed the heads of children,

I broke bread with kings,

I sipped wine with lepers,

I was carried to the ends of the earth by this yearning for more,

I searched the ends of time and space for you,

Just to tell you this;

After all my travels,

My whole life, but only a small speck of it,

Was spent looking for the answer to it all,

Life,

Loving,

Happiness,

Glory,

Pain,

Guilt,

Lust,

And it burned through me like parchment,

That unknowing,

Searching,

Yearning,

At the end of it all there's only one thing i have left to say;

Living is you burning as bright as you can, even at a whisper;

Loving isn't leaving yourself behind for another;

Happiness is never inherently rare;

Glory is gifted to those who give back;

Pain comes with life, but it makes you stronger;

Guilt is a meter you can use to your advantage;

Lust is part of life that keeps living;

You are intrinsically intertwined within the universe, a star burning bright for all to see.

beautiful and crazy story

John Wojtowicz & Elizabeth Eden

John Wojtowicz famously robbed a bank to pay for Liz’s sex reassignment surgery, which inspired the film Dog Day Afternoon (1975). Wojtowicz was sentenced to twenty years in prison, but served six. Using the money from the film, Liz was able to pay for her sex change.

Me, I wasn't taught to share, but care In another life, I surely was there Me, I wasn't taught to share, but care I care, I careMaybe I wasn't there Maybe I wasn't there Maybe I wasn't there Maybe I wasn't thereNow, in a perfect world, I probably won't be insensitive Cold as December, but never remember what winter did I wouldn't blame you for mistakes I made or the bed I laid Seems like I point the finger just to make a point, nowadays Smiles and cold stares, the temperature goes there Indigenous disposition, feel like we belong here I know the walls, they can listen, I wish they could talk back The hurt becomes repetition, the love almost lost thatSick venom in men and women overcome with pride A perfect world is never perfect, only filled with lies Promises are broken and more resentment come alive Race barriers make inferior of you and I See, in a perfect world, I'll choose faith over riches I'll choose work over bitches, I'll make schools out of prison I'll take all the religions and put 'em all in one service Just to tell 'em we ain't shit, but He's been perfect, world

I feel like white hot light is flowing down my skin and I hope that you know its because of you. and the way you talk to me, like I'm normal, and they way your smile dissects my chest, exposing my heart to everyone who sees.

Can you tell me your name kind stranger? Even your Last name? 

I want to know it so I can see it in my dreams when I sleep in the dark of my room, lonely and cold. Your name is that white hot light, burning my sorrow.

Could you hold my hand sweet person? Maybe even my head?

Stranger, thank you for everything you have done. We may not meet again, but you made me a better person from it and I thank you for that.
