good television, vol. 1



one of the best tv shows ever is millennium, created by chris carter who's responsible for the x-files. millenium stars lance henriksen as frank black, a criminal profiler who can see into the minds of killers and gets involved in some pretty cool cases. he works for the mysterious millennium group for the majority of the series. i'm two and a half seasons in so nearly finished watching the whole thing, there are three seasons total.

artificial light

and you're
divine like the horses
with the sun
shining down on them
and shining back into the world

in the fields
i drive past
in my car listening
to the songs and the bit of static on
that fm radio station
and it grows dark
and the jewelry on my wrist
is bright
with the stars shining down
on them and shining back into the world

and i arrive home and pull into the driveway
and head inside
and lock the door behind
and go upstairs and open the door
to my bedroom and go
inside
and sit there on my bed alone
with one dim lamp shown
dull into
the world

saga of the swamp thing, part II



because the mountain goats are the shit, i'm including this video of john darnielle talking about booty call and performing "how to embrace a swamp creature" live.

now i'm going to watch the rest of the swamp thing movie.

great great great

i just put on side c of lcd soundsystem's sound of silver. what a great album, i have a soft spot for hipster dance music even though i'm not real into dancing. all the tracks are great but my favorites would have to be the title track, and "someone great". great great great.

saga of the swamp thing



i'm going to start reading alan moore's run on dc comic's swamp thing, there are six paperback volumes that collect #21-58, #60-61, #63-64 & annual #2. i've wanted to read these books for some time but never got around to buying them, so now i'm downloading them. i will probably have the first volume read by the end of the night. i also rented the 1982 swamp thing movie directed by wes craven the other day, i started watching it last night but it was late and i only got half way through before falling asleep. here are the downloads for each of the six volumes.

my wingspan spans years

i'm a vampire bat, my wing
span spans years that
are blurry and hard to see 
my cave and personal things
in it are keeping me
compppany 
i'm wrapped up in
and slept in
my 100% cotton
wings feeling
cool cavern air
on my face on my face
blood on my teeth

my bedroom is a holy place



my friend travis and i recieved our copies of april by
sun kil moon yesterday from aural exploits. we got the white/black marbled version, it's the most limited of the three different versions with a pressing of 400. the other two versions are on black vinyl (retail, 1,000 pressings) and white vinyl (sunkilmoon.com, 500 pressings). ben gibbard and will oldham lend their voices for the backing vocals. here's a download for it.

i'm going to cut red meat and soda from my diet. i've got to shed some weight, i don't feel healthy. 

the internet hasn't been working/having issues since wednesday or thursday due to problems with the modem. it was replaced today though so everythings fine now. i'm enjoying my new record and browsing the net. probably going to watch a movie later. my bedroom is a holy place.

i am a mountain located near a village

in every room
i step foot into
quiet tremors continue
long after i've been traumatized
i've lost the ability to love her
it's so hard to love her
why am i denied her
i'll never again know
the magic between her legs
i'll never again wear
the way she saw me
that would glow from my skin
i am a mountian
located near a village
and i'll forever
keep growing foliage

the constant worries of my brain
begin to dance in my heart
seductive and smelling of rain
i want to witness every person
fall apart fall apart fall apart
crumble in on themselves
a glorious cave in
fail at everything they attempt
cut their toungues from their mouths and prevent
them from ever speaking again
silence the echoes of their voices in the canyon
will they cower at the summoning?
i doubt they will see it coming
the doomed chapter of existence
two thousand eight marks the
beginning of their insistence
to bring everything crashing down
rubble for miles and miles and miles around

the dark age is here
drawing oh so very near
and the black in my mind
will come to the surface of my skin
and i'll let loose the wings that will take me away from here from here from here from here from here from here here here ere ere re re re re e er
and i could awake in an er
and i could never wake at all
and i could open my eyes
and no one would be present to look back into mine
