selective memory


i'm think i'm getting better at forgetting things that cause me distress. i would like to have memories of galloping unicorns to fill in those voids.

nice horsey.

art imitates life imitates art


so like, that's me, sitting on the couch, except it isn't. after enough drinks, i couldn't tell the difference between footage and reality.

the satellite


i want to be self sufficient
without need for oxygen
at a vantage position
to burn up on reentry

from a cold orbit
spying sleeping children
and jaded lovers
i wish for nothing

i am the satellite
speaking in coded beeps
sweet signals of endearment
to a world without comprehension

manifestoe


in 5 billion years the sun will begin to die, first engulfing the earth and scorching it beyond recognition, wiping out our collective dreams, hopes, petty wars, miseries and grocery lists.

the towers we build won't matter. the heartbreaks we accumulate won't matter. matching accessories won't matter.

as such, there is no point to anything we do today, if not to be at peace, to celebrate the fleeting spark that is humanity, and to bring pleasure to other sentient beings (and adorable animals too).

footnote: there is no god, or afterlife.
