Tucson SunsetsAmethyst and golden  Crowns  North, south, east and west  A royal but benevolent glory  Framing our beauty   
Our beauty  Which is harsh  Which is misunderstood  Which is  Beautiful.   
A festive array  An announcement of the welcomed night  To follow a day of fire   
It must be every Passion  Flushed and radiant  Against a pale blue desire  Slowly warming and melting  Our hearts  Preparing us for  Dreaming.   
The unworkable land  Working us  Into a usable clay,  Our desert  Who giveth  And taketh a Tucson Sunsets

OptionsSweet apathetic bliss.  How seductively you evade me.  Oh, I yearn, and please.  Longing for your kind of peace.   
Holy forgiving wisdom.  How gently you look upon me.  Knowingly from your distant peak.  and I, Longing for your kind of peace.   
Noble legendary defiance.  How cooly you ride away.  Into a triumphant sunset.  and I, Longing for your kind of peace.   
Wretched silent misery.  How near to my weary feet you seem.  Cradling my bleeding eyes.  A lullaby chanting peace. Options

D.A.R.E.I miss your face.  Already.  Dematerializing  
as the acid of  annoyance drips  from your lips  and strips  
the  kind smile  from your bones.  
    A precious memory.  A memory.  Which I cannot help.  To reach out  to touch  it  
melts further  and,  further,  burns my hands.  
    I was.  So much to you.  Wasn't I?  
    NO  
    She.  She was so much to you.  She who  is not me  who  invented by you  is  was  someone you'd D.A.R.E.

Some QuestionsWhen the palm is frightened by the shriek of a storm  How can a warm breeze comfort him?   
When the desert ants are sucking water from the last leaf  How will they find shade from the sun?   
When the heart breaks  How does the body go on?   
If our mothers can't show us  How will we know the way?   
If our fathers won't love us  Who should love us in their place? Some Questions

Oh! Oh! oh! I'm finally updating! WOW! I know, I'm so kind to my fans. Fans? Hello???

So I've just been a writing monster lately, although my number of uploads certainly does not mirror that. I got an idea for a novel! So excited! It'll be sort of about that old idea of the problem of mortality- in particular as it relates to consciousness and the greater act of creativity. ummm..... yeah.

Problem is, I don't really have answers that might act as real themes for the questions the novel poses yet. Maybe it will be like a mystical magical soul search to write this thing...or, whatever.

I bought Mahler's Songs of a Wayfarer, and R. Strauss' Four Last Songs. I'm in love <3

I also bought "Blue Highways." My friend recommended it. It sounds like it will be good- I just have to wait until I finish "My Name is Red" to start. That is turning out to be an amazing novel! Orhan Pamuk. He's sort of the man.

Also, I have no self control. For further information, consult the pile of candy wrappers on my desk.

Adios!
