midnight duet


i love you
... no one says i love you like that
i love you
... you've no reason to say it that way
though i will not go back on what i say
... when you say...
i love you

i have loved you from the start
... you cannot leave my heart
i have been longing to say it
... but you haven't the nerve to play it
but this is yet now
... when your leaving?
and i'm using words
... i'm screaming!
and i cannot express the way i feel
... is this real?

i love you
... yes i know you do
and i care for you
... i care for you too
then why don't you
ever tell me
these things you feel
... i cannot know
... what's deep inside
... these wounds won't heal
when you left him
... when i left who
oh i think you know
you were at the show
on new years eve
... i saw you there
... playing on stage
and i know
yes i know
i said within myself
if i can just have that

and i loved you
... but you couldn't have seen me
i was jealous
... you couldn't have known
i saw your face
full of grace
like an angel it seemed
... and you played with all
... your hearts desire
... but i didn't know

didn't know?
... that i loved you
ah you say it now
... yes i love you
... and without a doubt
... there is no one
... on earth for me
... who will love me this way

i'm trying

... and i love you
but i'm leaving
... because it must be this way
... but for how long
... because i have prayed
... for the pain of you
... to leave me

as have i
but i didn't see
that i was already free
... you still bleed?
yes and it still hurts
but there's nothing to fix
because this is what...

fine feels like
... the pain?
no the joy!
and it's what everyday should be like
...like rain?
no like sun
and love and fun
and dancing all day...

... but you're leaving.

The wise sayings of Ratuna Fonsaire

The only difference between a big ass and a healthy butt is about 24 inches

I want to be the leader of all of the anarchists

If I was a teen superstar and I was featured in Teen-Beat Magazine, I would be
very ashamed if people put a poster of me on their wall.

If it were up to me: Heavy set, unibrowed Itallian mafia types wouldn't be allowed
to wear thick gold necklaces, cause it might get caught in their chest-hair...
And we should really be nice to people like that.

I've often wondered about the secret life of Bruce Willis. The guy makes a lot
of money and then goes around doing cameos in crappy movies. I mean, if I were
a famous actor and had money out the wazoo then would I make crappy movie
apperances? I don't know, perhaps the life of the famous and wealthy is too
challenging to sit at home all of the time. Maybe he cameos in movies that
suck just so people won't forget him. Uh, you know, that one guy.

Doesn't it bug you when other people smoke? I mean, like: Hey! That's money
that you could be spending on MY bad habits!

I think that if I were a black cat I would spend all day on fence-posts and
just look cute but then go "Rarrrw!" everytime someone came near me to pet me
... Or maybe if I was an indoors dog and it was like 3:30 in the morning I
would bark and wake everyone up and when they came to see what was the matter
I would stand in front of the basement door and just growl, and then when my
master came back with a baseball bat I would just wag my tail and trot away
and be like: WHAT???

If I was a girl I would get a tattoo on my bikini line that said: "I want to be
with steve" cause then when every guy got to third base with me they would be
like: "Hey! Who's Steve?"

You know... What's with bears? They're big, ugly, smell terrible and eat people!
So why did my mother make me sleep with them as a child?

I often wonder why the sky is blue and then I think - Oh it's because of
certain wavelengths in our color spectrum are reflected out of the Earths
Ionosphere and then I close my eyes and cry... cause that's just messed up.

I love looking down into the toilet at my dump before I wipe, cause it's really
cool to just see it sitting there all helpless, forlorn, and alone... and wiggly.
But then I notice that it's a big tapeworm and it makes me mad because: "Hey
that's MY lunch".

reflections

here's a comic dated november 1st.



there are actually more. i've made january 1st - november 1st so far. time
will tell if i put them all up or not. here is the rss feed site that brings
you all of them so far...

have fun... it's a big page load i'm warning you!

bitstrips.com

some of you might know me from the u.s.v.i. or michigan or colorado or kansas
or oklahoma or indiana or new york or texas or _________...

some of you might know me from online as someone that you never met but i thought
you looked cool and friended you.

some of you don't know me at all.

but if you want to know one thing about me, know that i dwell in an alternate
reality called bitstripland. it's kind of like candy land or oz but there are
no scary monsters trying to put you into a kettle and make you soup.

well. one would think anyway.

i try to be optimistic and artistic and all the beautiful things in life and
i succeed some of the time.

other times i don't

so i resign myself to creation anyway.

i like to create. painting, singing, writing, acting. you name it. but i would h
ave to say that the main point or thrust of my creative endeavors these days has
been online at a site that is referred to in the title of this blog post.

what it is... hmmm... perhaps the best way to decribe it is to steal a line from
the owner (named B-A) and say taht it's a lot like youtube for comics.

you can create a character, create a scene, place that character in your scene
and make a comic out of it, then make that character your avatar and send an
email with that character saying something, then remix that character and give it
a moustache and remix the scene that you just created...

(whew)

pretty dazzling if i do say so. 'so'. heh.

what a great idea. i can't draw more than weird paisley doodles and raindrops
and squiggles but i can make strips.

i actually have made quite a bundle. 829 of them to date. some of them are ART,
but most of them are just plain goofy and silly. there have been a couple attempts
at combining writing in bitstips and even a drama series, but mainly i just love
to make them for their own sake. to exist.

it's fun. it's free. and you only have to have a mouse/keyboard/moniter attached
to a common CPU encased in a frame with an i-net connection to work it out. oh,
and a browser capible of flash 9.

you might decide later that you need a nap and then a shit and a bite to eat
because you've realized that you've been bit-stripping for over five hours once
you get started.

it's just that powerful.

check it out.

i did.

and gained twenty pounds in the process. rofl. what color was the sky again?

A People's History Of American Empire By Howard Zinn

Moon Moth... Todays random animal





The Comet Moth or Moon Moth(Argema mittrei), a large silk moth, is found only
in the wild in certain parts of Madagascar but is able to be breed in captivity.
In Madagascar are a few breeding areas and there are a few zoos that attempt
breeding too. Some of them are quite successful.

The Madagascan Moon Moth or Comet Moth is one of the world's biggest, the male
has a wing span of twenty centimeters and a tail span of fifteen centimeters.
As a Moth they only live for 4 or 5 days and they are only fertile the first
day after getting out of the cocoon.

As a caterpillar they feed on eucalyptus leaves (only fresh ones, which makes
it harder to breed them in captivity) and grow to a reasonable size before
getting in the cocoon. They stay in there for about two to six months depending
on the climate.

This particular type of moth only lives in Madagascar of the south coast of
Africa. It is an endangered species.

Jesus is the comforter of my heart
Jesus is the one whom i say yes to
Jesus is the lover of my soul

Comforter is the blanket of joy
Comforter is the shadow witin action
Comforter is my hands, mouth and feet

Abba is my holiness eternal

Captured and Counted


All the moments
All the time
I have been here
Every time

All the seconds
Counting lines
You have mimicked
All of mine

All the minutes
Every lie
I have counted
Every sign

When your heart breaks
In seven thousand pieces
And you are broken
Lost crushed alone

Your soul drifts
Farther away
You are a billion
Miles from home

And your father
He beats you
And your mother
Cries

But they cannot help you
They do not listen
This is your story
You see Your life

We are the leaders
Where are the men
Where are the women
To break us again

When does it let up
When will it end
Will a glorious savior
Come again

crazythisiscrazy


Am I just as lost as I think that I am
Or am I as lost as I feel
Am I doing alright today
Are things becoming clear

Am I as crazy as I act
Or surprisingly steady
What is my brain withholding
Where does it all go

Am I living my dreams
Or just dreaming my life

captured


I find myself looking up
At my futures bleak moment in time
I capture myself within your love
What else is there to do
But to go away forever

When you have no more money
When your lost and alone
And your mind drifts so far away
A million miles from home

The smallest of moments take all day
A tear forming before you try
When will your ship come in for you
It shouldn’t be a surprise

When I go away forever

And you come up to the waters edge
Listen to the breakers crash
So many galaxys above you
You know that they wont last

And now they go away forever

moldy


Why do we grow up
And colors turn moldy
Why does time slip away
Faster every second

We forget for naught
The things that we want
Why does the crippler
Break us in two

To be much more
I have til this very moment
To be more of who I am
Becoming the superhero zero

I will live each day
Like it was my final
Death cannot take me
Away away away away
