There is a new administration in Washington

Everything is slipping through my fingers.
You know when you find that beautiful satin dress,
that you haven't worn yet?
You took it out of the bag and hung it up,
saving it to savor it.
It's at the back of the closet
and you try to capture it between your fingers.
You can smell the faint smell of new fabric,
you can see the jewel bright colors,
but the material just slips out of your hands.
It's an elusive bitch.
So you have it,
but you sure as hell aren't going to be able to wear it.

UNLESS YOU....COMPLETELY....clean out the closet?
but then you'd have nothing else to wear.
Maybe you should just go ahead and do it and then wear the satin dress everyday.
Hmmmmmm.....
Bad analogies and metaphors...are the only things that can make me understand.

Sullied flesh

I used to think to myself, 'At least I'll always have art!"
Now I don't even have that.

It's funny. You hear empty conversations about false promises your whole life....
and you tell yourself you don't need it, that you are above that shit.

Who are you kidding?
You would die to have some false promises in your life.
Those little moments where you are convinced that you aren't just another person, where you aren't just an independent, unique little snowflake.

But those moments are for those who deserve them.

Fade to black on repeat

I feel so empty.

I don't have any meaning.

I have a sense of direction.
But I could care less about it.

I hope this feeling goes away soon.

I think this is a result of not reading poetry anymore.
But what if....What if my empathy has burnt out?

I'm so lost. I really wish I didn't have to find myself. I wish someone could come find me.

Our hopes and expectations







[2/10/10 10:52:16 PM] Molly Jones: Lets forget boys and marry songs. They'll always be there, telling us the same thing over and over: We're here to make you smile, dance, and feel awesome.









I don't have any idea what they're saying but it's just so intimate and sweet
