i let it all burn

The audacious irony sometimes... Ole Poe said it well, I was never insane, except upon occasion when my heart was touched.  Strange powers indeed, these tricky cosmos. Because I can never do something halfway, I tore my cornea so completely so that I've been unable to see for a couple of weeks all whilst our planets wreak havoc in the form of eclipses.  Bear with me but how utterly laughable that the first eclipse shows us what's broken and the second shows us how to repair it.  

I lost the plot and then I was unable to see clearly so then I had look inward to truly see.  Believe me, I get it now.  To leave behind an outdated narrative and embrace the creation of a new... to say what needs to be said is a gift but the stinging irony is not lost.

Anyhow... here are some songs I've been enjoying. 

 

The Smiths - Barbarism Begins At Home (live)

 

Rainbow Kitten Surprise - It's Called Freefall

 

Blood Cultures - Set It On Fire

 

Lykke Li - Lucky Again 

Fifteen years since Wounded Rhymes was released. That album had me in such a chokehold... I drowned in it fully.

 

Chain of Flowers - Glimmers of Joy 

I really adore this one; it's one of those tracks that makes me feel most like myself.

The Iron Curtain

I wrote this some months back and forgot to post it.  How right and true I was. 

The Iron Curtain met The Little Boy Who Likes to be Bad. A chink in the carefully constructed armor and here we are.  Some revelations can't be explained, only experienced.   The squishy zingy shock, it really was never about me and yet it was always about me.  

False intimacy doesn't interest me, I value the real.  Cheeky mischief afoot but I dance on the waves and kiss the ashes into the wind.  

Mood Rings - The Line

Tonight's the night you broke the line.

I'm not surprised you broke the line.

The Soft Moon - When It's Over

Choir Boy - Happy to Be Bad

 

Be Forest - Lost Boy
