Stupid, effing trains.
Stupid, effing test.
Stupid, effing brother.
Equilibrium upset, and I don't know why my roommate loaning me her sweater because she thought I could use something fun and cuddly to wear today makes me cry. And my best friend's a mother, my "uncle" has cancer, and I wish this weather would last all winter. But it won't, cuz I'm not home, I'm here, dragging my feet till the end of the week when I'll get wrapped up in strong arms, at the very least metaphorically speaking, and get some relief.
Poetry night is Sat night, and I have nothing to write; the one thing I think about is the one thing I can't yet talk about (at least out loud, to a public crowd).
Am I sleep-walking, sleep-talking, sleep-massaging/test-taking/kid-sitting/apartment-fixing all this time?
It feels like it.
The writing makes me come alive, caterpillar-cocoon style, the shell of my life hiding what's really going on inside.
Gotta go, class is starting.

you forgot effen vodka
You could read this on Sat night.
I 2nd trs.
i 3rd trs
e. - oh yah. thank God we're on to myology and its fun again.
yossi - vodka would not be stupid. it would be glorious. i had beer with lunch, and it cheered me up significantly.
everyone else - really? hmm....
ok, this time just two linguistic points:
"Effing"- Keep writing it like that and it'll end up in the dictionary...
"loaning me her sweater"- I see that usage going around...as if you're making monthly payments for it (i.e. as opposed to "lending").
I should be more sympathetic to the content. I know.
Oh gee, I know these days. I suggest going to bed early, but that is far too practical. On with the vodka!
Beer with lunch I envy you.
I too am a zombie.
You're right THERE, on the cusp. in between depressive inaction and depressive creativity. It's within reach.
It's gonna be the greatest slam ever.
oh btw, I have zilch for slam myself.. :(
tracht gut
*the
shriki - oddly, i actually really appreciate your comment!
sara/feivel - thanks for the sympathy :)
baruch - hmm... so i just gotta break through. now how do i do that...?
are you coming anyway? its gonna be AWESOME!
and - you still have two days...
maybe break out that facebook poem you wrote a while back?
i think i read that one last time
as for how to break through, no clue. i guess it just happens
hope you have something, or just read the ones from previous slams... they are definitely worth a repeat
Cheerio: I must know; what is there to appreciate in such a comment?
i pride myself on my command of the english language - when i err, i appreciate being corrected.
Ahh.
Sending big hugs your way.
Come on over... I have booze in the apartment. We can drown your sorrows (though I do hope things are better now).
