So, in my current vein of life threatening endeavours, I am going out with my cousin and her (fucking hot) female friends again on friday night. One of them really wants me... should be interesting seeing as how I have a girlfriend waiting for me back in the US.

"The truth is only good until it gets found out..."

 
okay, so my relatives were right about the dangers of clubbing with my cousin... I jumped out of a fucking plane and landed on my feet safely, but I go out in the evening with my cousin and flew through the air and managed to land on my knee and bash it up quite well.

So, to recap the day of my jump et al:
jumped from a plane and landed perfectly, went out (and admittedly drank a little... hehe) and took most of the skin off of my right knee along with a big chunk from my right hand. blood is my friend.

 
*giggles* my mommy signed my guestbook... this makes me happy...

I miss you, Brittany...

 
okay, so on saturday, after my jump, my cousin has invited me to join her and some of her female friends to go out drinking, etc.

I'm a little concerned that when I told people here that I'd be sky-diving they said something along the lines of "good on ya..." Yet, when I told them I'm going out with my cousin they all said something along the lines of (and most verbatim) "BE CAREFUL!!!"

*grins* this should be interesting...

 
I think that I will miss the music more than most things I've encountered on this trip...

"And she cut all the strings
that I tied to her wings
Leave it be, in the dark..."

-- The Wallflowers, Another One in the Dark

 
Some of the best time I've spent on this trip so far is the time when I am doing such remedial things and my mind can wander. I've been thinking a lot about some of the strangest things, and dwelling entirely too much on the past in the process. I think I've figured some things out a bit better than I previously thought, but that is a bit more disturbing than anything else.

I've also been mulling on how some people can hold a grudge for so long and how much hate they hold on to just to get through their day. And how many intellectual murders occur simply because so few people are willing to listen, actually listen, to what other people have to say. I don't like thinking about that because it seems all so sad and I lose faith in people (which, incidentally isn't so bad because I have entirely too much to begin with) as a whole.

I think I'm all the more frustrated, but I'm figuring out ways to get past some of it with some people...

 
can't keep up with the world around me,
couldn't give up until you could see,
that you don't ever fall in love
because it's already all around you...

and sometimes, it's safest
to just curl up in a ball at night
and cry...


 
for some reason, as of late, I have an extreme feeling of worry which has tinged my perception of some things which I have read... usually, that feeling is right...

On this trip, I have been writing more than I usually do. I can't seem to get to sleep without writing at least 3 pages -- poetry or prose. Must have something to do with knowing something...

and, I will very much enjoy arriving home several hours before I left...

and for anyone who is curious, the timezone I currently inhabit is 17 hours ahead of the timezone I usually inhabit. (10pm LA time 6/13/2001 -- 3pm Sydney time 6/14/2001) I'd call people, but by the time I get home most days, it's too late... sorry... I will keep trying.

*giggles* you know, I think I see some family resemblance...

 
twice engaged

I hoped
to say I love you...

an empty night for
love.

missing the US...
considerably less access to internet than I hoped, but I'll make a serious effort...

on saturday 23 june, I will be hurled out of a plane and plummet toward the earth... fun!

I miss being home, but I am loving this trip.
I love you more each moment.

back to work...

Gone until July 1st...
Updates (if any) will be infrequent at best...
I may have access to email, so if you like then mail me...

I love you, 5.
I'm gonna miss you like a part of me... no, not like a part of me; you are a part of me... *smiles*
keep trying to formulate the *_____* and please email...

goodbye all...

(and if my plane should crash, then know that my last thought was of you...)

 
*worries* I hope you don't get into trouble...

for being late...
for being with me...
for being...

I love you, be safe...

 
the night (this night) is
infinite love in a moment

but one question remains...
How do you feel (about me)?

 
And the world lies about it
    making as if it had got his message
        even though it is poetry
but most of the world wishing
    it could just forget about him
        and his awful strange prophecies

Along with all the other strange things
    he said about the world
        which where all too true
            and which made them fear him
                more than they loved him
                    though he spoke much of love
Along with all the alarms he sounded
        which turned out to be false
                if only for the moment
    all of which made them fear his tongue
        more than they loved him
Though he spoke much of love
        and never lived by 'silence exile & cunning'
                and was a conscientious objector to
                        the deaths we daily give each other
                                though we speak much of love


 
An effect of Rembrandt
an effect of Turner
The air is shaken with light
the crickets begin again
on a heavy summer night

 
Empty house on a horizon
Two faces casting shadows as one
                                    (the one lost sight of the two)
And touching, bleeding souls
bleeding together
blurring the line
between love,
perfection,
and time
alone.

 
Hers was a face
which no amount of darkness
                        (or moonlight)
could kill in that instant.

I whisper "I love you..." all night
          availed to smiles.

Then she would smile and look away.
Sigh, smile, and rise
and stretch her sweet anatomy...

sometimes, against me...

There are different wells within your heart.
Some fill with each good rain,
Others are far too deep for that.


In one well
You have just a few precious cups of water,


That "love" is literally something of yourself,
It can grow as slow as a diamond
If it is lost.


Your love
Should never be offered to the mouth of a
Stranger,


Only someone
Who has the valor and daring
To cut pieces of their soul off with a knife


To weave them into a blanket
To protect you.


There are different wells within us.
Some fill with each good rain,


Others are far, far too deep
For that.

(forever)



 

All your images of winter
I see against your sky.


I understand the wounds
That have not healed in you.


They exist
Because love
Has yet to become real enough


To allow you to forgive
The dream.


Lying in your arms
(Someday)
And telling you,
With my eyes, the only
Truth I know:


Your wounds of love can only heal
When you forgive
This dream...


5



 

Forget all about your desires for truth,
We have gone far beyond that,
For now it is just --
Pure need.


Both our hearts are meant to sing.
Both our souls are destined to touch
And kiss.


5



 

When
The words stop
And you can endure the silence


That reveals your heart's
Pain


Of emptiness
Or that great wrenching-sweet longing,


That is the time to try to listen
To what my
Eyes


Most want
To


Say.

This
Sky
Where we shall live
Is no place to lose your wings
So love, love,
Love.

To the girl that is all three:

Love sometimes gets tired of speaking sweetly
And wants to rip to shreds
All your erroneous notions of truth


That make you fight within yourself, dear one,
And with others,


Causing the world to weep
On too many fine days...




stay out of it... this time, I'm serious.

 

What unspeakable wonders must await with
The commencement of unfolding
Of the infinite number of petals
That are your
Soul.


What excitement will renew your body
When we both begin to see
That Our hearts reside in
Everything?


5



 
I know, dear love,
that my eyes will paint you more
from my (biased) heart
than any lens of reason...

but what could be better?

ever wonder if the moon is just the sun in drag?

I just did... sorry.

 

Something
In your soul trusts
Me


Otherwise it would not let you near
These words.


I can lean the flame in my heart
Into your life


And turn
All that frightens you
Into frozen
Incense
Ash.


5



 

There is a private chamber in the soul
That knows a great secret
Of which no tongue can speak,



Nor wants to.



5



 

Like a great starving beast
My body is quivering
Fixed
On the scent
Of
Light

Here am I come perforce my love of her,
Behold mine adoration
Maketh me clear, and there are powers in this
Which, played on by the virtues of her soul,
Break down the four-square walls of standing time.

The sad bit about the people who sign this guestbook is that they seem to go out of their way to spread hate and anger. If you don't want anything to do with me, then why not simply stop visiting this site and its guestbook? If you are concerned about (or simply enjoy pointing out) me inflating my ego, then why give me so much attention (even of a negative nature -- attention is attention)?

It would seem to me that the people signing are looking for more attention than they even accuse me of looking for. Signing with (rather mundane) sobriquets is, psychologically speaking, a cry out for someone to spend the time and energy to track you down and figure out who you "really are." And the person(s) who sign(s) with "Die" seems to have left the longest entry, to date, in this guestbook; staking out real-estate in a rather "look at me" fashion. If you truly hate me enough to wish me "vanish," then why spend all the time and effort to say goodbye just to retract it in the last two sentences? Why not just take yourself out of my life?

And, to date, not a single one of the reprehensible things said about me (at least in the guestbook) has been supported by any examples or evidence. Simply saying that someone is "evil" and "bad bad bad" no more makes them "evil" or "bad bad bad" than the word "water" quenches your thirst. Also, it may be a wise idea to consider the source of these diatribes...

(side note: thank you to * for keeping an open mind)

 
In fourteen-hundred and eighty five,
Columbus landed here alive,
but fourteen hundred and ninety two

And everyone looks sad,
I can hear you, your voice in the laugh track
But you never saw my best scene
The one where I sleep,
Sleepwalk into your dream."

They may ring before I'm through..."

"auburn is a color you shit-head"

well, to that I can only respond with:
"Venienti occurite morbo."

"I beg you my friendly critics,
Do not set about to procure me an audience."

the irony of this seems fitting in light of the recent guestbook banter...

But first you must learn how to smile as you kill."
