Underneath the sea
Lay the hollow bones I once knew
Flattened, and crushed by the wondering waves
I drop onto the floor.

The sun’s eyes peer into mine
As the clock ticked on
Her smell vanished from my senses
Farther and farther I fell.

I reached for a hand as it reached for mine
Sickly and alive, closer and closer
For a moment we united
Down I went.

Surrounded by swimming bubbles
Popping and tickling, pushing my body on
The eventual end, underneath the blue blankets
Ever so still, waiting to be awoken.

So I've been pretty "inactive" for quite a long time, but for good reason!!
After ublot as some of you still remember, I've been hard at work on a new project, called blurtt.

Basically what im trying to do is create a really cool way of bringing back the power of REAL MAIL!!

Don't you love getting cards, and letters in the mail, from your loved ones, friends, and family. I know i do.

So we've developed this website that lets you send a real card (3.5"x5") with some really cool artwork on one side (uploaded from you guys) and with your thoughts on the other side.

We love artists, and trees. We are carbon positive! Why should you submit artwork?? We give you $$$ everything you make that gets printed gives you a cut, and by being an early designer you will get featured on our homepage

Anyway, we are launching blurtt.com on friday so keep a look out, you can grab the template on our website and submit early designs to nik@blurtt.com.

Im excited to see what you guys can come up with!

But you never seem to mind,
And you tell me to f**k off,
When I need somebody to,
How you make me laugh so hard,
How whole years refuse to stay,
Where we told them to bad dog,
Locked up blindly in a word,
Or a misplaced souvenier,
How the past chews on your shoes,
And these memories lick my ear.

I know,
You might roll your eyes at this,
But I'm so
Glad that you exist.

Complimentary "Chief Inspector Blancheflower" Ringtone


I wanted to be a typewriter mender when I grew up,
But things didn’t work out so. Sleep
Late in the morning, climb up Mt. Olympia and replace a Return:
But I didn’t get enough good grades.
My uncle Peter had the Parthenon Business Machine Remediation outfit,
And right there, on the shop floor,
Hundreds of electric-selectrics, all messed up:
But I didn’t get enough good grades.
I had a dexadrine hyperactivity selective
Attend to relevant
Information tempo taken in told to
Mechanism coping concept
Put my head down crumple my paper.
Sent to look at the future-job folder-binders,
I got distracted by the graphs.
In the resource room Mrs. Petorsky re-enforced me:
Raisins from her zip-lock bag,
And free time after my target behavior I was positive about:
Tickets, tangibles, chips and stars.
Now playing I’m In My Own Little House:
Tickets, tangibles, chips and stars.
I had a dexadrine hyperactivity selective
Attend to relevant
Information tempo taken in told to
Mechanism coping concept
Put my head down crumple my paper.
After school I was sitting in the sitting room
Looking out at the pavers in their bright orange vests
Holding up the slow-go diamond plastic piece of wood,
And I knew that I’d never be any good
And never wear a hard-hat and do things like that,
So I joined the police force:
Damp in Dumbarton dip about the 14th of May.
The publican dropped me a line thought there had been foul play:
The farmer up the hill came in with his knife
He mumbled something darkly about his young wife.
Riding up on the postcoach I thrummed on my notebook.
The wind was up, I held on my hat. I do up my coat, look:
The farmer stumbled past holding his gun
He mumbled something darkly about his young son.
About your wife, sir.
What about her?
Pray, where is she?
Nowhere you’ll see.
Locked him up in the store room of Mrs. McVeigh’s Inn.
Take tea up in the manor Sir Robert Grayson.
The farmer through the window came in with his sword;
He mumbled out of breath Forgive me m’lord.
And after that rustic imposition I took a deposition
I shared a Woodpecker cider with a local fratricider
Who told me all this stuff and more:
Well I rode up to Springfield on my motorcycle
And I’s gonna stay with my younger brother Michael.
Mom’s oxycontoins and the Amstel Light
But I noticed I was doing most of the talking that night.
So I got both remotes and turned off the DVD
And said Michael is there something that you need to say to me?
Well I don’t know how to tell you.
You can tell me any
Thing that you want ‘cept I started seeing Jenny:
I started seeing Jenny.
My Jenny?
And he looked down at the floor.
You know damn well she ain’t your Jenny no more.
And I said Get her on the phone.
Don’t you think it’s a little late?
No I don’t think it’s a little late.
But I went out the room cause I knew I’d better wait
So I went down to her dad’s bakery and she said
I’m gonna go outside take a break smoke a cigarette.
I’m still surprised at how mad you get.
Well what’d you expec’?
That you wouldn’t try to wreck your little brother’s happiness.
And I said Listen to you!
I know what you’re trying to do.
And what whould that be?
Mess with Michael’s head as some kind of revenge back at me.
--So I drove up to Springfield in my wife’s new car
And went and had a drink at my buddy’s old bar.

the monologue means nothing to me

bored in a role, but he can't stop
standing up to sit back down
and lose the one thing found
spinning the world like a toy top
till there's a ghost in every town

can't make a sound

eyes locked and shining

why should you want any other, when you're a world within a world?

In the dark she knows
The touch of my hand
Let the music play like you want it to
Let the sun shine light in your hair
Let the moonlight play
At your feet like a babe
And softly linger there
Her words profane, her mouth divine
I tried to sympathize with both sides
But I was caught, like a fleeting thought,
Stuck inside Leonard Cohen's mind
We met on a beach in Greece
And parted on a rusty Spanish stair
Two birds in the distance fly
They land and they settle down,
Somewhere
A year is just a drop in time
It cannot touch her female form
In my head
She was just a friend of mine
In the dark she knew
The touch of my hand.. ]]> ~exspiro http://exspiro.deviantart.com/journal/7387787/ http://exspiro.deviantart.com/journal/7387787/ Fri, 23 Dec 2005 00:25:29 PST I wouldn't do for you

A curious shadow angle poised
Circled twice then tossed me a carcass

Sold you a Dalmatian but the spots fell off
Pooled them all together as a hairy moth
Bred it with a lion but it flew away
Now it chases drones around the sky
Growls and grunts 'til you feed it a blemish

I can't get enough of it
Kiss me with apocalypse
An instant hit
