BODY TYPE

During my last day of senior year, the school librarian [middle aged, kinda dorky, nice lady, librarian stereotype] told me with a little too much enthusiasm in her voice that she was getting her first tattoo soon. Throughout her life she had never felt that a specific picture could represent her well enough to permanently design on herself. However, after initially seeing my “STAY TRUE,” “No Retreat” and “No Regrets” tattoos and asking me about their origins, she reconsidered the idea of tattoos into representing something she had always appreciated- literature. She said she was planning on getting a Walt Whitman tattoo on her foot within a few days. I think that’s cool, I think I’m cool too. Some things cannot be expressed by anything other than words and I think it’s awesome that so late in life people still change their views on body modifications. Maybe there’s hope for my parents after all.

 

 

Life goal: live somewhere beautiful.

somewhere i have never travelled, gladly beyond
any experience, your eyes have their silence:
in your most frail gesture are things which enclose me,
or which i cannot touch because they are too near

your slightest look easily will unclose me
though i have closed myself as fingers,
you open always petal by petal myself as Spring opens
(touching skilfully, mysteriously) her first rose

or if your wish be to close me, i and
my life will shut very beautifully, suddenly,
as when the heart of this flower imagines
the snow carefully everywhere descending;

nothing which we are to perceive in this world equals
the power of your intense fragility: whose texture
compels me with the colour of its countries,
rendering death and forever with each breathing

(i do not know what it is about you that closes
and opens; only something in me understands
the voice of your eyes is deeper than all roses)
nobody, not even the rain, has such small hands

somewhere i have never travelled,gladly beyond

On a positive note.

I do believe it’s true

 that there are roads left in both of our shoes,
but if the silence takes you then
I hope it takes me too.

 

True vision and the impeccable timing,

shine so the blinded don’t look twice.
My Fresh, don’t it look nice?

 

 

It bugs the heck outta me that they’re all the same size. =,= But, one last thing, I found this absolutely lovely folkish type song. The only link I could find is this one. If you feel so inclined to, I recommend giving it a shot. :]

On an XV kick today, represent.

Say good-bye to the street lights, bye to the “I can’t eat” nights. So hello to new countries and new languages I can’t speak right.

Dis my boi XV.

This looks similar to me, actually, haha.

Two for the show.

From childhood’s hour I have not been as others were; I have not seen as others saw; I could not bring my passions from a common spring. From the same source I have not taken my sorrow; I could not awaken my heart to joy at the same tone; and all I loved, I loved alone.
