Music of the Moment:

Here are half a dozen (and a bonus video) songs I'm bumping at the moment:


Adiam Dymott - Cars




BONUS (You know how I am about my female rockers lol): Adiam Dymott - Pizza




Mayer Hawthorne - Shiny and New






Dudley Perkins - Understandment

JBIII - Pantyhose (instrumental...yes...the real song is the truth, but the instrumental is for lovers.)






S.L. Jones - PostUp

Hello Sir. It's Me...Margr...wait....

haha...


Now. On to serious business. It's been about a year and a half since I read a Wallace Stevens poem. As many of you know, Mr. Stevens gave me my life's motto (see: Man w/The Blue Guitar), so as my nose bleeds and my leg bleeds (two for one special....hold up...)

..............if I may pause here to mini-rant. This one is for you muffin, future psychiatrist (psychologist?...we need to talk about that lol) *ahem* (*in Bill Nye voice*): Do you think it is possible for a person to justify an emotional pain through physical pain, even if indirectly? We'll talk soon. Where was I? Oh...

and my mind wanders to something I have to deal with eventually, I owe to ol' Wally to give him first shot to provide perspective. This is me revisiting a few poems, snatching some sections I relate to in my own way at this moment, and tossin em at you all. Obviously I won't be explaining the meanings to you (a. Mr. Stevens would come back to life and slap me haha and b. Its me?) Let's dance shall we?


1

"Will say of the mansion that it seems

As if he that lived there left behind

A spirit storming in blank walls,

A dirty house in a gutted world,

A tatter of shadows peaked to white,

Smeared with the gold of the opulent sun."
- A Postcard From the Volcano

"Opusculum paedagogum.

The pears are not viols,

Nudes or bottles.

They resemble nothing else. "
-Study of Two Pears

.
3

"Of the two dreams, night and day,

What lover, what dreamer, would choose

The one obscured by sleep?

Here is the plantain by your door

And the best cock of red feather

That crew before the clocks."
-Hymn from a Watermelon

II

"I was of three minds,

Like a tree

In which there are three blackbirds.

.
.

III

The blackbird whirled in the autumn winds.

It was a small part of the pantomime.

.
.

IV

A man and a woman

Are one.

A man and a woman and a blackbird

Are one.
.
.

V

I do not know which to prefer,

The beauty of inflections

Or the beauty of innuendoes,

The blackbird whistling

Or just after.
.
.

VIII

I know noble accents

And lucid, inescapable rhythms;

But I know, too,

That the blackbird is involved

In what I know.
.
.

XI

He rode over Connecticut

In a glass coach.

Once, a fear pierced him,

In that he mistook

The shadow of his equipage

For blackbirds. "
-Thirteen Ways of Looking At a Blackbird

“FitzGerald was a very eccentric individual. Among his peculiarities included being a vegetarian who loathed vegetables”



I love it.

Woah…If I find a woman who talks like this…I’d never be single again lol.






3. http://jessj.wordpress.com/2009/05/04/if-i-were-your-girlboyfriend/



"So would I date myself? No. I’d try (as Justin) to get with someone like Jessica just for the challenge but Jessica is way too smart for the likes of Jus and I’d have to step my game up, which is fun when you’re used to just having things easily. So it’d be a game, but never anything serious. There would be too much ego and too much of a power struggle. Not saying that Jess is tryna be a guy, no no no but Justin wouldn’t know what to do w/ someone as strong-willed as he (i) is."




I'm certainly not going to give Jess the pleasure of "know"ing me or confirmation online if I myself am a Justin type, but if you know me...you know how I feel about/relate to that entire section lol. On another point...the section in black...really though dear? Then thank god you aren't a man.

"This is not a post on the failures of colleges to come through for their students. It is not a post that rejects the idea that a university level education in this day and age is important. It is a reflection from a man who has walked on both sides of the fence, and in most instances, walked on the fence."




How’d I let This pass me by?...Forgive be brother Owl lol, stellar post family.
