What's It All Really Mean?

Random Writings ver. Mango

i've gone mad
sure, the exterior is held
by my dermis and bones
upright by the spine
but it's the mind that
refuses to meld

the physical body has
been tormented by the head
as the nicotine and kerosene
slowly poison my senses dead
maybe, it should really equate
to the battle of will

the body reaps the rewards
of hard living
and denying the gut
of what mental happiness is

conceptually understand upstairs
right from wrong
good from bad
it's the positive outlook
that's the error to be had
no one knows of the troubled
and sad

My day of fun!

cubs game at 1:20, wolfmother at the metro at 8. not bad for a thursday.

Darfur! how can we allow this!?

some 300,000 people will starve, even if emergency aid is delivered immediately, according to the head of the united states aid agency.

some 10,000 people have died, and a million made homeless in a conflict between rebels and arab militias.

UN officials blame Sudan's government, which they say supports the militias as they rape and kill darfur's people.

voice your opinion! what can we all do to impact this situation? we, or should i say, our goverment floods billions of dollars into Iraq while we let other perish due to lack of food. we american's are FAT! where's everyone's moral compass at these days?

Oh, while we're at it . . .

on a more serious note, i do have something worthwhile adding for today and for the future. in this whole neurotic debate on illegal immigrants i have formed my own opinion, and mind you, i said "my own opinion". where would this country be without immigrants? is this country not founded on that mentality? i obviously know that this digs way deeper than this, but really now. the illegal immigrants that the media and the lawmakers target are the ones we should hardly concern ourselves with. in areas around my neighborhood we have 4/5/6 people who live in a one bedroom apartment who have come here to make money to provide for their families back home in mexico, central or south america and live on nothing in between. i know that i would go to any extent to be employed to provide for my family. how can we make these people suffer more by now deeming them as federal scofflaws? no one seems to be yelling at the canadians now are they? they come here to use "our" superior medical treatment facilities while we go there to get cheaper pharmies. (i don't know where that fits in, i'm just typing). i'll be back to add more . . .

In lieu of Killing Time.

yeah, i've accomplished the norm of most substandard eBloggers -- I've managed to put up one more useless post before a year has lapsed! i'm throwing a fuck'in party for my accomplishments! so, if your in chicago next weekend, c'mon over and i'll give you a beer on the the sector9 house account! outside of that, i'm out of town all week for work and just needed to let the mind decompress for just one minutes worth of typing. now i've accomplished that.

Blog's Best.

i have discovered that the best part about my usless blog is that i'm the only one who views it! went to lollapalooza this past weekend and had a blast. widespread panic and of course dinosaur jr. were the highlights of the sunday shows for me. asided from the 104º weather and sun, it was enjoyable.

Alright, now what.

I survived my "old friend" weekend. whew. Outside of that, i'm glad that I chose to meet up with her. Two long years and she still get's it. Hand's down, one of the greatest people in my life on this earth. Now she's made her way back to her life in Denver. Someday Drager, you'll find the close match, never the equivilent. Hey, have a great Wednesday.
