my heart-

my heart

you took my heart when you left

you didn't know that you held it
but it travels with you
silent
pliable to your words
and at night i think
of my heart
and i dream of you
and hold these memories
fleeting moments
for two

so hold onto my heart
just like you held my hand
and think of me
as i dream of you

memory motion pictures

memory motion pictures

these memory motion pictures
that play incessently in my mind
winding
twisting
in my waking dreams
as i try to find sleep
grainy snapshots
of boys on beaches
in the cold
with plastic cameras in hand
and sand between their toes
moments captured forever in my brain
of camping trips
and rain overflows
into tents with no zippers
slow motion reminders
stolen kisses
dark nights
and long walks in the cold
conversations that led to nothing
but absolution
and petty talk that changed who we are
freeze frame the graduations
the birthdays
the christmases surrounded by family
while i search for rest

a contradiction

a contradiction

we celebrate our freedom
with the blood of a nation staining our hands
bowing heads to give thanks
for the things
we are taking from them
our abundance grows
while what little they have is destroyed
loosen our belts
and lay back in our easy-chairs
don't think of them
running
from the falling bombs
they have nothing to celebrate
yet
we,
in our indifference
raise our fists
and cheer on the army
as they turn a nation to rubble

"this is war"
you cry
but what do you know of war?
you
surrounded by family
well-fed
happy
stagnant and secure
your petty troubles meaning nothing
to the homeless man

in dreams - part ii

in dreams - part ii

sometimes,
i wish
life were more like day-dreams
a part of my reality
i suppose
with you so far away
i could cope with the loneliness
growing steadily
with every passing hour
just to think of you
and you are here
to think of you
in my arms
and you appear

sometimes-

sometimes

sometimes she sits by the window
tears shining in her eyes
waiting
wanting
but no man is perfect
her scarred heart bearing witness to her pain
and she wears the smile
to hold back the sorrow
the years of brokeness
the decades of fear

sometimes she walks in the garden
the light reflecting in her eyes
wishing
praying
for an end to this monotony
but her torn heart will not let her go
and she wears the ring
in spite of her hatred
this binding sentence
that she cannot escape

sometimes she waits by the window
the loneliness darkening her eyes
sighing
sleeping
waiting for the end
her heart bearing the signs

greet the morning

greet the morning

lay awake
and wait to greet the morning
the single
solitary
yellow-gold beam of light
so easily mistaken for
optical illusion
reflection of the moon
or some random star
that has spent countless nights
shining
in my window
but the beam persists
growing
from its pale incarnation
gathering strength
with the coming of the day
a flicker
a burn
and the ember bursts into flames
lighting the sky
my eyes
intoxication of the morning
bearing hope
in the tides of time
... breathe deep
inhale the scent of the day
cleanse yourself in its' newness
for just a moment
...
then close the curtains
and

secretaries make good lovers?by `spunj13

Designs & Interfaces / Fashion / T-Shirt Graphics

there is a joke band in the area... (acoustic two man deal) that plays at local hardcore/metal shows. they are quite funny, and until recently were using the name "El Donkey Punch." they decided, instead, to change their name to "sister fister"...
and asked me to design them a shirt.

so here it is.

the original idea was the back of a naked girl and a guy in "power stance" with a bloody fist in the air. this, however, was vetoed as too graphic by my GF who suggested instead a nun ... adding to the comedic aspect of it...

so here it is... SisterFister

[edit august '08]

as this shirt was never made... it was recently revamped into a Secretaries Make Great Lovers shirt... it should be available soon!

thanks!
unfortunately, it never got printed, since the band that it was for broke up before it could be made.
