Someday Maybe - Chapter I

This is a story about Maybe.  She lived in the small town of Nowhere on the outer edge of Somewhere, the big metropolis.  She started out with a life that many people would find simple and satisfying.  Suspended in amniotic fluid, all you can eat buffet, playing Bounce In the Belly were just a taste of the perks she had, all which were stripped away from her the moment she was born.  Maybe belonged to a big family by our standards, and I mean humungous.  People just don’t have this many children, but the Fringe was teeming with children and so was the squalid overhang that Maybe’s siblings som

Untitled-01There I was  Speeding and weaving to Santa Barbara  Like the sea foam out my window  Surging in the open water for the shore  I too was desperately hoping not to recede into fathomless homogeneity.   
Then I realized,  I will spend the rest of my life  Learning how to experience satisfaction. Untitled-01

The YawningThe Yawning  I saw the sky roaring bright,  Mouth split open wide,  Bleeding out colors like some seventeen year old  Contending with the universe for the first time,  Ready to spit out the stars  And constellations of shattered smiles. The Yawning

Poetry As PoetryI have never read a poem about poetry  Or at least it was never anyone's favorite   
There is nothing exciting, nothing relatable  About poetry about poetry  But it's our fault:   
Unmitigated introspection  (Hmmmmmmmmmmmm, check)  Perhaps embellishing,  (I-don't-know,-maybe,-I-think THIS-IS-incognito complex)  Ligation Dilations  (Midsummer Syntax Shag)  Obligated ablating  (The Final Draft of a piece of art is Nothing)  And cyphered rashes of validation  (Ode to a Very Hairy Palm)

Spring-ish Cleaning

Journal Entry: Sun May 13, 2007, 10:31 AM
Cleaning out all my old journals, taking out some favorites, and the big one, taking down a lot of my work. I'm only going to have stuff up that I'm either actively working on, is new, or I felt like it was worthy enough right now to keep up. So if you see something suddenly vanishing, this would be why.

I don't like to be 'done' or thought of being 'done'. Makes me feel like an egg about to be cooked.

oooh. the big choice :O
well i don't have anyone to support either... but i'd like to be able to support someone else... and also work part-time and do art.. that's my goal.

the die is cast, caesar. stop holding that cube of cheese. :|

I've got one more semester before I have to make my immediate decision on that sort of thing. Right now I don't have anyone to support except myself, so we'll see what goes. I'd like to write fulltime, but I don't want to be foolish either. We'll see what happens. *holds the die*

You made a wise move. Don't beat yourself up over it.
*jonzoiplu:iconjonzoiplu: Aug 15, 2006, 9:10:52 AM
or you could be just like blake and live on the streets in rags for the rest of your life... :( well since i was a kid, i've always wanted to be an artist. from storybook illustrator (kindergarten dream) to artist (public school) to writer to poet. but realistically, i chose a job in my boring pragmatism that will pay the bills (work part time hopefully) and allow me to pursue the arts on the side. i know it's awfully measured and conserved of me, but i don't want my family to be living off scraps in parkdale.
but keep up the good work. i admire people who go all in and put their stakes on art. respect +30 points.

Aww. You're welcome! I'm trotting to peek at your gallery soon!

Ha. Too true, though sometimes I wouldn't mind directing some of that emotion into my bank account. *eyes balance* With any luck, I'll become extremely poor, write about poverty, and get rich off it. Well actually I just want to write, but that /is/ some deliciously silly irony isn't it?

Thankyou greatly for the watch, mittens! :smooch:
*jonzoiplu:iconjonzoiplu: Aug 14, 2006, 1:16:32 PM
;)

yes. keep writing. artists don't bankroll emotion for money. they do it for art's sake.

Alright. I'll take your word for it and wait for your upcoming stuff.

Ha. Thanks, that means a lot. For a long time I've been feeling like, "Do I have a marketable audience? Meh. I'll just keep writing."
*jonzoiplu:iconjonzoiplu: Aug 14, 2006, 11:22:37 AM
well i looked at my comments and the name didn't ring a bell and neither did the avatar or page... so i was hoping i didn't have some freaky stalker (anyways who'd want to? they'd be more scared of me :p). but upon reading your stuff, i was like, i don't care if sheis a stalker. =p
don't bother reading that poetry. i'm working on some new stuff... (this summer was a growing period for my poetry) so hopefully i should have something to substantiate my claim of improving sometime soon ;p
nice to meet you too :)

No no. Not yet, well not until now and a moment ago when I replied to your comment. However I /glanced/ at your poetry and thought I might want to take a look later. Nice to meet you!
~jwules:iconjwules: Aug 14, 2006, 11:06:20 AM
*chuckles* No problem! I'll check back later. ;)
