… I think I should stop buying weekly titles and move over to trades… or maybe I should stop buying comics all together and start buying something else… or maybe I should stop buying everything and start buying nothing… or maybe I should stop typing and start writing… or maybe I should stop this and start that…. or maybe I should…

Blame Charlie Brown…

February 15, 2005

I owe a lot of it to Charlie Brown… both the good and the bad, the happiness and the saddness… my tendency towards aloneness, my lack of reason or my overabundance of logic… I owe it to the somberness of my own bitter masterpiece, my own valentine… I rely on this alone (me alone) to help me watch it and see it all through…

Blame Charlie Brown for my mistakes and watch as I laugh at myself, tears running down my face.

Daredevil #70
Wolverine #25
Queen & Country Declassified Vol 2 #1

A small week, but that’s fine with me… The cash output is getting out of hand, and I need to spend some more time dealing with the input, and the management… Currently reading The Authority, and it’s taking a while for me to connnect with the characters… Also reading Blankets, 1 chapter in to it, and I can tell it’s going to be a good story.

Husker Du – Games

February 4, 2005

I could stay here the rest of my life
I could be happy, never be lonely
I don’t need to go looking for misery
I could surround myself with my props
Playing my part, getting caught up
In a game, some game, that anyone can play

I could be proud of things I have done
Pretend I don’t have to try to be someone
I could say that I’ve done it all before
I could get wiser, I could get jaded
I could remember, I could just fade away
In a game that anyone can play

I am so proud, I don’t have to try
Never a need to justify it when
People say “Hey I was important too”
Memories go to reinforce
The things I have done, for better or worse
It’s a game that anyone can play

Just when you think that all your answers are so right
You’ll fade away and disappear from sight
The ones who said you’re great will find another way

I could be sad, I could be lonely
I could still have some friends if I only
Didn’t play the games I had to play
I was important when I was cool
Now it gets lonely playing the fool
It’s a game that anyone can play

I run…

February 2, 2005

I run my fingers through
the weather
the wind rushes feverishly
through the trees

I look, listen and feel the
consequance of another day

rain drops slowly again

another time
another year
some other day or place

I’ve never felt your understading…
look up, keep looking up…
I’m gone.
