Inflamation of the Lungs

Journal Entry: Wed Apr 16, 2008, 4:57 PM
I sit because the Dadaists screamed on Mirror Street
I sit because the Surrealists ate angry pillows
I sit because the Imagists breathed calmly in Rutherford and Manhattan
I sit because 2400 years
I sit because in America Buddha saw a Corpse in Lumbini
I sit because the Yipies whooped up CHicago's teargas skies once
I sit becase No because
I sit because I was unable to trace the Unborn back to the womb
I sit because it's easy
I sit because I get angry if I don;t
I sit because they told me to
I sit because I read about it in the Funny Papers
I sit because I had a vision also dropped LSD
I sit because I don't know what else to do like Peter Orlovsky
I sit because after Lunacharsky got fired and Stalin gave Zhdanov a special tennis court I
became a rootless cosmopolitan
I sit inside the shell of the old Me
I sit for world revolution
--Allen Ginsburg, "Why I Meditate"--


School. Is almost done. Holy Mother of God.

If anyone ever felt like their soul had been sucked away in four simple months, I am that person. Please, if you find it, bring it back. I miss it. It smells better than the mouldy replacement I've found.

ps-I bought bubbles and a hula hoop on Saturday! I've never really figured out how to hula hoop, so I've made it a life goal. And I can do it! (Although, I must warn you, I look a little bit like Elvis Presley...) I'm looking forward to sunny, warm days where I can do sidewalk chalk and hula hoop and blow bubbles and kisses. Life is better than school, anyway.

Just so you know:

Whenever I see your avatar, I start singing the opening theme to Jem in my head. It usually gets worse and worse until I start up with this goofy smile-thing -- and it doesn't stop for a good half day. It gets very bad during school, when I'm giggling while my professors are talking about weird things like male-biased dispersion or glycolytic substrates.

....I feel like a geek now.

Thank you so much for taking a look at my stuff--it really means a lot to me. I really love what I've seen of your poetry, and so it's kind of an honour to me to have you comment on Count Your Blessings. (smile)

Thanks.

Your poetry makes me feel like you are further away than I am. Those words skim really slightly into my BRAIN, it kind of shocks me how feathery.

I don't know. But I like it.

Thanks for the +fav! You have a great style and you know how to put politics into art without making it mudslinging. Cheers!

(PS -- I love Rainbow Brite, too)
