Keep me and then leave me to bleed. If looks could kill wouldn't need all the Pills. Swallowed hole and out of reach. Unsafe enough for now.

Sex talk is a secret language. Where your body is a sentence.
Girls who wear their thongs higher than their pants;
'I'm here, I want sex, from anyone.'

Where the act of eating an ice cream cone says;
'Take me, I'll make your dreams come true.'

Brush of the hands;
'I wanna touch you.'

A quiet giggle;
'I like you.'

A longing look;
'I need you.'

The way she looks up at you while she's taking a drink;
'Tonight is the night.'

All contact and aftertaste. It's like I'm still waiting for the wounds to heal. Stopping your heart from Hate

Do you think all the pages removed from the holy text have been forgotten in history? Or are they hidden and kept under hand and key in some temple in Tibet?

What's Going to happen when one of the million messiahs comes down and tells us everything else is a lie? What if he's not your messiah? Will he set the world aflame? Or live amongst us? Will he once again be lost and forgotten in time?

What if they all came down from the heaves and hells. Declaring Men gods for creating them? Would we use them like we used the crusades? Will we ascend in through? Would we suppress them like slaves? Or use them as weapons in Holy Wars against our own kind? Being they of our own creation?

Would they revolt and overthrow us? Would they kill all us greedy and selfish humans? Or would we change places and then fade away as the historians of our creations forgot some of us existed? Would we war with them? Or open them up to see their insides?

I crossed my fingers, but I didn't beg. Cause I knew you knew, I knew you knew I liked you. I knew you knew it.

[Attempt at...] Ramblings of the head.

"He said I'm leaving

I said Love is such a rare thing that people just throw away.

He said How's that make me feel any better about us?

I said Well how do you know what love is without ever having loved before?

He says I've never loved anyone like I love you.

I said Well if you leave, someday you will.

But in my head, I'm looking at his guitar, imagining it not there.

And I hate the thought."

[Fragments of ramblings]

"I remember thinking boys were kind.
Warm like pumpkin pies.""

"Uncomfortable silences are real languages that are felt, not spoken."

"They have us surrounded!
Men with tanks all around us!
Holding us at bay with their guns!"

"You can hear them all dying in your head. And yet there you sit, laughing at the man with all the snarky political jokes. He's telling you the truth, feeding it to your cornea.
And there you sit, laughing at all the people dying behind the kingdom of the U.S motherfucking A."

"Awake! Arise! Or be forever fallen."

"Green painted over by red.
War in the fields of Earth."

[Attempt at Lyrics] Mother never told me boys were evil.

Never told me they put on masks.
Entertain you as if they were actors in some play.

Change who they are, the things they say. Cover up their faces with visions of candy mountains and whipped cream streams.

Never told me they'd be your lapdog for as long as you'd show them a bit of teet.

They'll tell you lies that flow from lips dipped and readied in poisonous fruit.

I'd pick up the pieces every time
Say it was alright.
Boys were alright
I just needed to be a better woman
To do better
Needed to be the perfect girl.

(...Incomplete....)

[Self Given/Written] Speeches...Poetry?

"Now, speaking hypothetically here, if humans had souls, do you think we'd earn them? Or, like genetics, we get little pieces of a soul from whomever it is that made us?

Are we manufactured? Some biotic machine capable of thoughts and logic?

Do things like love and hate come bred into us as part of our mainframe?

Or is it society that slowly creeps these feelings into us? Like some sort of bug, a piece of spyware?

Are souls created from hardships and good times? Maybe our souls are earned through the passage of time.

We can't be one without a two. And certainly can't be a two without a three."

***

"Having a soul is much like learning to fly."

"I felt like I shed my soul somewhere.
I can't seem to find it. So I gave myself up to the Guillotine.
Told the man behind the mask to do as he please.

Looked me up and down and said to me
You're looking in all the wrong places,
I don't think I'm the man who you'd like me to be.

He dropped his axe and gave me his back.
Left me alive and freezing to death.
World is number and colder once you've shed your soul.

I kicked off my shoes and smashed my eyes with a big sharp stone.

Went for a walk down a muddy road
Decided to let it come to me.

Like a magnet, people came.
Like animals huddling for warmth.
Empty and Empty still's a bunch of nothing.

Had lost my eyes and my feet were numb.
Sat on a curb, trying to figure it out.
Resting my body, licking my wounds.
Letting my soul catch up.
Perhaps it was lost, wherever it was.

Sat for so long, thought I was done.
Maybe my soul had found a better sidekick than I.
A lover who gave more.
A person who was stronger to hold such a brilliant thing such as it.

The sounds came as a surprise,
swept me up and took me for a ride.

Here I sat; eyeless, dirty, and pretty goddamn soulless.

Man says yes, puts my hands on the keys and says
'Play.'

Maybe all humans have the capacity to play.
But none had ever
With words and music alone
woven me a soul to keep."

I think that's all I can find for the night. That was pretty fun. I liked being able to re-read and re-write all those oldies. Archive them and such. Now I'm gonna go ahead and post pictures. Some are of my art, but most will be of the pipes my husband is currently carving.

Voodoo Spunk Art.

There's Beauty in the Breakdown- I like to pretend there's an audience...

So, these are a few things I've written over the last few months. We just recently moved back to Puerto Rico (my husband is a CA native and I had been living there for 4 years.)

I didn't have a PC since UPS kinda broke my monitor. But regardless I'd still write the old way. Paper and pen. Just figured I'd pass it onto my online journal. For archives sakes.

After this I'll be posting some art on my Voodoo Spunk Art blog.

"Keep telling me you're lost and fucking confused.

If you ask me for directions, I'd tell prolly tell you to turn left. 'Cause you're never gonna be right.

But in all truth, girl.
All you need is to walk.
Walk a straight line, tie down your life line. And don't worry if you stray. Cause we all do.
We all fucking do.

The Path is a bit winding,
and the forest a bit distracting.
With its lights reflecting off the dew.

All you gotta do is remember
you got you life line toed down, secure.
Nice and firm.

Path's mot going anywhere.
you only have yourself to blame
for venturing into the wolves den,
the lions mouth.

You don't need no directions girl. But if you were to ask,
I'd tell you to go left. Cause, babe, you're never gonna be right.

And a loser like me, girl, sure as hell doesn't have answers
for a beautiful being like you.

Oh babe, all I can tell you is that
the road ahead is full of pot holes
and under construction signs.

A detour here and there.
Maybe a trap or two.

You draw your own map. like some Etrian Odyssey.

There will be vendors as the side of the road,
and people dancing naked 'tween trees.

But don't get distracted
Can't ask for directions.
We're the creators.
We're the architects.
We're the geographers and cartographers of our own winding maze of a road.

'Cause if you were to ask for directions
Oh, if you wanna ask for directions.
Ask a loser like me for directions.
Girl' I'd tell you to go Left.
Us humans are never right."

[An attempt at Poetry] An ode to the Endless - Delight

In a soul so cold I lie in wait
This void, this hole easting, writhing
My breath gone, a sigh escaped
through lips so numb.

Morning has not come in days gone. Reigning darkness in, soul so void, empty, cold.

Before the world was a world
Before breathe was breath
Before even gods were born.

There were the endless.
First of the endless there was death.
For death and life were both things of mortality.

Then there was dream
As humans lived and dies
The, and other creatures, dreamed.

And as they dreamed, they learned of Delight.
Delight was born of dreams and life and joy.
She was beautiful, brilliant.
All that made others so very happy
She was an incarnation of.

At first humans found delight in all things.
Then, humans found destruction, desire, despair.
War, Pain, Suffering, Lust.
All things that are human.
Decadent, apathetic, selfish and uncaring.

Desire began fading.
Her skin became pale.
Her eyes the color of melted lollipops.
For when humans forgot gods,
even the endless would fade.

For a long time, delight wept.
Her golden hair torn from her scalp.
Lips the wet of fish,
toenails soft as paper.

And as the flowers in her hair withered.
Delight becomes delirium.
Delight becomes Delirium.

Bird came down,
hovered over me for a second
'fore landing on my shoulder.

It had feather like no other
and the eyes of human kind.

Opening its big fleshy beak.
"Woulds you happen to know, sire, which way south might be?"

Looking left.
Looking right.
Fog for days
ripe apples like bleeding hearts.

I've little sense of direction,
my dear phoenix.
I've given myself to the fog.
You and I live in two different dimension

[Notes on Novel/Comic/Short stories] A'leon & Kirai - The Meeting

A'leon and Kirai meet @ a bar. She's playing music and dancing at a bar.
A'leon is at the bar drinking while she's dancing around the tables. She's pick poketing. He notices. They lock eyes for a second. She smiles and dances over to him even though she knows she has to leave soon.
He's wearing his monacle so he can see through her disguise of a human.

As she dances around him the music stops. She bows to the crowd and sits by him. They talk for a bit (she mentions she loves his hat, makes some slight remarks about it in jest). As the convo is getting interesting a man stands up and calls Kirai a thief. She laughs.

'That's my que, see you 'round commandant.'

She winks at him and runs out.

She runs out hurriedly,a mob of men right after her. A'leon pays for his drink and follows, watching.

She turns into an alley and transforms to herself (Tall. About 6 ft tall. Red in skin colour where there are scales and dark tan skin where there are none. Long whippish tail, small fangs, curved horns like that of a goats, golden eyes that are almond shapped, the iris like that of a cat.)

A man sees the change, startled, she does the first thing that comes into instincts and pulls out her sword. She fights him off quickly, but witht he time lost other men have seen her original form as well. The chase continues.

She's in a building now. With her sword sheathed and a riffle at hand now. In her other hand, a pistol, with her second one at the ready. She shoots at the oncoming horde of angry and drunken men. She's cornered, not enough time to reload any of her weapons. There's a window behind her.

As the men talk about raping her (filthy demon) a grenade flies in through the window behind her. Someone down bellow shouts "JUMP!" in celestial.

She jumps out the window. She flies/falls down as fire and smoke escape through the window, the room exploding witht he men within.

A'leom catches her in his arms.

'I knew you'd come in handy!' She says, smiling as if she had it all under control and was not one bit worried. About the men, about the rape, about the fall. He checkles and sets her down. The authorities chase after them.

They finally manage to escape the authorities (they disguised and hid at an upper class inn).
Here, they talk some more, here, they dance to music. Here, she takes his hat from his head and sets it on hers for the first time. Grinning up at him and winking.

[Attemp at notes comic/novel/short story/ies] A'leon and Kirai - Goodbyes

They make love. (By now they have been lovers and partners in crime for a while. Never actually expressing their love.)

He gets a letter in the middle of the night about leaving on a ship in the morning to join the revolution. The Rebellion to take back their/his country. To return to it as their own once more. She reads it and wants to go. They celebrate the rebellion with wine. He puts sleeping potion in hers.

In the morning she awakens to find him gone, all but his hat left where his head would usually rest. She runs to the docks and arrives as the ship/galleon is just leaving. She can see him on board. (He had been waiting for her, almost. Not conciously, but his eyes searched for her mostly than looking at the port and what he'd be leaving for the months on ahead.

She shouts, shouts his name. He ignored her, although he can hear her. Her voice loud and shrill in anger and desperation. A tinge of cold heartedness and a whole lot of pain. Sadness. He can only imagine her fear. That he might not come back. But it was for the best. She would not be safe. It would not be the logical choice to bring her. Not for him. Not for her.

She sings their song into their message rings. He listens for a moment, hesitating before smashing it into pieces. This way she won't track him. This way she won't find a way to follow. But secretly, this way he won't think about her all the time.

Authorities catch her. She's put into jail where she meets a necromancer and a kobold and a woman. Amazonian looking.

The Necromancer says that as long as they agree to help him he will set them all free.
Eventually, they agree and make a blood pact.

The Kobold is a wizard, the woman is a fighter/seductress.

The necromancer's servant sets them free. They escape the authorities and travel to the necro's homeland.

Adventures including fighting off the authorities, guards, and a band of kobolds happens in between getting to his homeland. Traveling through mines and Kirai acquiring two pets/followers/friends/body guards. Gnolls who think of her as their alpha female (who gives them shinies and is nice to them).

Meeting a dark Celestial within Necro's homeland. A knight whom Kirai grows interested in. More out of curiosity. Adventures continue.

[Attempt at Notes comics/novel/short story/ies] A'leon and Kirai - Reunions

Eventually A'leon finds Kirai and joins them to watch over her. Kirai is pissed and not talking to him. Making snide remarks and pointedly being harsh with him. A'leon takes it all in cool stride, trying to cope and understand her anger and frustration. Gives her space. They are happy and make love only the first night.
Only in battle do they show affection or any sort of true communication. As they've learned how to be excellent partners in battle.

The Necro is trying to build a gollem to conquer his homeland.

The Kobold is trying to revive a black dragon to take back to his country and let the dragon conquer the world.

Sober thoughts

I'm sick and tired of being walked all over by people. I'm done. Finished with being used like a foot stool or a rug. I'm tired of feeling like an object and I'm SICK of holding it all in. Holding all my hate, all my rage, all my anger in.

I say, No longer. I've always prided myself with being a blunt person. Truthful to a fault. Well that's what I'm going to do. All this hate, all this rage MUST end. And I NEED to lash out.

And fuck that whole 'writing letters to people you have ill feelings towards and never sending them in.'

No.

FUCK THAT!

I will NOT be a fake. I will NOT keep it all in. If someone needs to know something, they will know it.

I'm irrational, a bit chaotic, I talk before I think and consequences bypass my logic as my mouth spews out poisonous sentences at people I'm angry at.

But it must be done. I will not censor myself. I will not walk around and shuffle around in silence like some dumb fuck zombie.

Why are people afraid to be heard. And why are people afraid to fucking hear the truth?!

This isn't about vengeance. This is about being true to myself and letting people know. This is about being fair to me. This is about cleansing my soul and letting others know that NO! It was NOT alright.

I don't care if they're deaf to it. I don't care if they try and ignore it. But I must open my mouth and scream.

I need a cleansing, and seeing how spirituality is something I lack, this is as best as it's gonna get.

Beautiful Pangs that turn Ugly unexpectantly

The weed helps when you're trying to asphyxiate yourself with a pillow to truly end your life and crying. Not crying for the reasons why one would try to kill themselves so adamantly. Not because of an event in your life. But crying because you have no idea why you're doing this. Crying just because you're trying. Even though it's your choice. You can chose not to do that. You really can. Your brain controls your motion. To remove the pillow would be so simple. To take in air again would feel so sweet. So reviving. It's only natural to not want to. Or to at least understand WHY'D you want to. But not to know why and yet not be able to remove the pillow. To fight your own mind, your own brain away from the motion is so difficult. Like lifting your own weight and then some off from you and make that very fine attempt at surviving. To tell you're brain that it isn't all right for it to do this to you.


That was possibly the most depressing thing I've ever written. The most dramatic and fucking depressing thing. I look at it and even I laugh at myself. At how terribly immature and naive it sounds out loud. And I don't understand why.

I then went into the bathroom and took a hit. I smoked a cigarette while I sat on the shitter. I wasn't really doing anything. I think I might have wanted to pee but I can't recall. Whilst I sit there I thought about what I wrote above. Almost verbatim to it. And I thought about writing it somewhere to never ever forget.

After I thought about that I wondered about how ironic it is that I want to be a research psychologist. I guess that's what leads a lot of 'crazy' people into it. The rest it must be for the money, I know someone like that. His name is Dimitri, he's Greek. Like, Hella. But yeah, I started thinking about how I wanted to research the human mind. Find out why, how, where, when. Find out what triggers them emotionally and chemically within the human brain. I don't want to help people, I don't want to sit there and listen to all your problems and try and help you fix them. Although, oddly enough, I've done that all my life. For all my friends. Even for people I hate. I've been that shoulder to cry on for so long it's ridiculous. But, as a career I don't want to deal with it. I just want to study it. To watch it. To see stupidity. To study religion, society, philosophy. I want to write books and tell the people who are helping others 'WHY?' I want them to be able to give them reason. I want to write books doctors will have to study for their PHd.

And then I thought about the oh so stereotypical irony of it all. How it almost bled from the sentence. Another looney who wants to be a looney doctor. I then began a conversation with myself. Where I HAD reached my goal. Where my book was famous in the world of medicine and psychology around the world. And a man, a reporter or interviewer would mention my past. How bad my mental history had been throughout my life. How could I call myself a doctor if I was as insane as the people I studied. And if I thought everyone who studied it was just as crazy. More or less.

And I imagined myself smiling, my legs crossed, wearing spiky heels and a nice suit. And how I'd tell him that the point was that 'crazy' people aren't really loony. They're people who know more, who have more, who ARE more. But they don't know why, they don't understand it and cannot control it. They're people who can see other things, who have the emotion all of us is capable of having but just a malfunction or an evolution made that serum or chemical so much so in his body.

I want to change the 'why'. I want to change the way people think about others they call insane. I want to revolutionize something.

And then I imagine the incredulous look in the man's face. The awkward laughter, as if it were all joke. My book, my words, my theories. And I think of myself smiling at him so assuredly, so non-chalant about what I just said and how calmly and assuredly I said it.

And then I thought about the people who read the interview, or saw it on TV. And I wonder if they think I'm crazy. If they think I'm terribly insane. If maybe they think who better to tell us than someone who knows what it's like to be there? Maybe, just maybe, she's right and she proves her own theory correct. She herself being an example, and many others we've noticed in society. In everyday life.

Then I thought about witting that in here too. I imagined writing and felt so great. I was glad everyone was asleep. I'm glad I'm by myself. I feel very uncomfortable within my own skin ATM and I needed some me time. Some thought time. Time to be ok with the fact my life is a bit abnormal, a bit more shit full with chaos than that of others. I thought of the music I would listen to. How an epic quest for my iPOD must commence once I was done with the cigarette.

Well, there wasn't much left of that cigarette, and I had already decided what important task was next in my agenda for the night. Followed by writing.

So as I sat there for some more time I thought about Steve and Ananda. About how they were the two people who taught me to never let go. To love and always love. To do anything within your power to hold onto someone so strongly and with so much love. To make it work till that rubbed off and dulled like a knife. But treat love violently, harshly, attentively. Nourishing it.

I remembered sitting on that fuzzy white rug in Ananda's families (because all of her family are welcome there. No matter when or how. This was important to mention. They are loving human beings.) home. Ananda's dad playing the drums to the Beetles in the background. I was cross legged and had a permanent smile on my face. I had Ananda's toy, which she had exchanged my phone with. She had called my phone a bad toy. And she loved me so much she gave me her favorite toy and hid mine. I remember looking up at Steve. His eyes were closed, he had head phone on, with his iPOD in his hand. His head beat with the music, his foot stomped in rhythm. He was chewing on gum. He chewed on gum all night. I remember looking down to Ananda and her eyes were on Steve. As if he were the only thing that existed in the world. I felt it so assuredly. Like there was nothing else there. He was her fascination.

I remember feeling such a pang of love, followed directly and almost on top of an ocean of envy. A tsunami of jealousy. I was so very happy for them, don't get me wrong. I did not hate them. I did not look away. It was a beautiful thing and I was glad it was so alive. So FUCKING alive. But behind my joy I felt such a great sadness.

And now it's different. Now I have that. That strength to hold on. To do anything for someone you love as long as they're willing to do the same. And they're not. What I learned and cherished so well that night and from knowing them for all those months didn't work.


That night was so beautiful. It will always be magical to me.

I think that might be a reason why I've been so down lately. And I thought about how selfish that sounds of me. I think about how Steve must feel. And I remember how I felt when Noah did the exact thing to me. I thought about how they were there for me. How shattered and battered and hurt I was. I was in such bad shape and they were there for me. And now I have it, and it's our turn now. To help them. To be there for him. It's my turn to be there sitting next to Steve on that curb outside of Great Escape Games, in front of the trash bins smoking a cigarette in the harsh cold weather. The roles were reversed. This time he would not be telling me not to kill myself. Not to think of it and to move on. To know I was loved, that I wasn't crazy no matter what Noah had told me.

I remember it all so well right now. I miss California so much. A piece of me was left there. A huge chunk. And I need it back.

My cigarette was out, so I threw it in the toilet and flushed, wiped and picked myself up from the john.

The search for my iPod lasted about...I'd say maybe an hour, maybe less. Being stoned makes you lose track of time really well. But I finally found the iPod and here I sat.

I'm really glad I wrote this. That was a lot to get off my chest.

I miss a lot of things. I'm sad a lot, and most of the time I have no idea why. I hate so hard, but I have so much love in my life I'm drowning in it.
I'm just glad all that love is there to balance whatever chemical in my brain is making me topsy turvy. I just wish all the hate and all the violence would go away.

I realized, also while in the John, that I spend a lot of time doing things. keeping occupied. I do a lot of art, a lot of hanging out with people, mostly and especially with Virgil. Which is grand because I love him. But since lately I've been a bit out of it to do art, a bit uninterested and uninspired and Virgil's been terribly obsessed (kinda OCD) on his pipe crafting/widling wood, I've had a lot of me time. To think about myself and stuff I don't usually think about. I guess I should think about me more often than ignore it. Because when I get the time to do so, man, it's like a closet full of shit you've been stuffing into it for months. I guess it's why I e-mailed Noah today. Why I stopped talking to Jacob some days ago...

But yeah, this definitely helped. I'm glad I got to write here. I'm not sure what I'll do now. Maybe some TV, another cigarette to think on it some more. But I feel much better now.


Heh, I think about the song that's on right now [She wants Revenge - 'Tear Me Apart] and I remember the night we danced for the first time. Our first kiss. I remember how we danced. Like we were supposed to be dancing. Like we had fucking practiced something epic, sensual, full of so much emotion and sexuality.

God that memory makes me smile so hard. Hah.
