haha, fuck that

i think i'd rather be
hanging upside down from the ceiling
lost in the sound of reverberation
swimming through the static
throwing myself through safety glass
i am under oath to keep on giving
and my mantra is still no art for art's sake
so when i sing —
you know why

i meant, that you had revealed the truth about the idea of vampires in general: that the whole idea is kind of violent and not sexy. ie, edward cullen is living a lie.

btw i also like all three of the poems you wrote since i've been gone.

1. i hope cliff diving as in, ENJOYMENT OF LIFE, not as in EDWARD CULLEN LEFT ME. MAYBE IF I GO CLIFF DIVING, HE WILL COME BACK TO ME.
2. i am suddenly feeling like PUNCTUATION could improve my life so suddenly my poem is going to have a whole lotta PUNCTUATION and it's going to be wild. or potentially, disastrous.

nm. i'm too much of a pansy to do that. i have no idea how to use punctuation in poetry.

well, the title of my poem is also a line from the chorus of a song by sugarland.
there is something amusing here.
