Clouded.

The sky is overcast
clouded
like my thoughts.
I'm not the person
I once was--
clarity like the pale blue
of a summer sky,
this my thoughts
are void of.

Smashing Pumpkins.


It's nothing new that I'm notoriously in love with the Smashing Pumpkins. Siamese Dream was the first cd I ever owned and it's been a love affair since day one. I swear I've listened to pretty much everything ever released by the Smashing Pumpkins (aside from perhaps some b sides, but who listens to those?!) so I'm stoked that they're going to be releasing their new album Oceania in July. In fact they posted all the tracks online, so I'm listening to it as I type:

I cannot wait to physically own this cd!

You Get What's Coming.

Who said
I cared.
All I did was
raise my eyebrows
and pretend
attentiveness.
And now I'm left
with the fruits
of my labour.
An apple
rotten to the core.

This Girl I Know.

Cherry blossoms
touching pale ice--
this mark is
for a girl I know.
I didn't deserve
forgiveness
but you gave it
anyways.
You hide behind
meek
cardboard walls
but I know
the cast iron frame
behind it.
I watch the frame
begin to buckle--
my heart breaks
for you, but I promise
the pain only lasts
as long as you let it.
