just read this one poem...
07/18/2003 04:06 a.m.
hi. i spent alot of time last night composing a poem, 'the bedroom window empire' (i forget what gibberish i actually titled it, but that's the gist of it.). it's the first poem i've ever written in movements. it's a little threadbare right now, but i'm going to enhance the language a little right now. anyways, please read it. it took me forever to write. just read it, and if you feel compelled to comment/criticize, please do so. please. :)

~aa

p.s. if anyone can afford me 6 comments in an hour, that'd be great. i'd have 100 in a month; and 700 overall.

i've gotten about 24 comments in the last 3 days. that's crazy stuff. if i have 14 more by the end of tomorrow (*very hopeful; heh.), i'll have had 100 in a month. that's crazy sheeit. i average maybe 45/month most months. so, thank all of you who have commented lately. :)

what i'm going to do, is go through and read each and every one of my comments, and return a comment for every one left. because i really dont comment on other people's stuff enough.
heh, this'll take a while.

the devil hath posessed me

i hav 666 comments. cait crist commented on 'a poem written from the perspective of the poem' for that ominous mark.

i think i'll go listen to some marilyn manson, which will then make me shoot up a school. and they'll all blame it on this number. so cait, i'm sorry if you become scapegoated for it all.

pardon my twisted humor.

so, i've gotten like 7 comments today; that's alot for one day for me. pretty rawkin. my readership has been up lately, despite a complete lack of readable material this month. but hey, whatever. it's all gravy. thank you to all who commented; i should also mention that last night i recieved my 650th comment on my poem, 'moments of truth'- commented by m'pal, cymbre dolphay. yay.

oh, and to make things even cooler, heather l. thill (yesterday's POTD) just IM'med me and said she would buy some of my artwork if she had any money... no one's ever offered to pay me for my art before. i'm tickled.
that's it for me.

teen poetry, the mars volta, a jazz fest and other topics
06/29/2003 06:43 a.m.
Ahoy Hoy! it's been a while now, hasnt it? my poetry has slowly ground to a halt, i do apologize for that; i've been soaking in alot of poetry, alot of life, alot of music... etc. i've got a notebook, keeping everything under lock and key, however, until i feel comfortable with revisions and emotions.
ANYWAYS.
first off, i got second place in the teen poetry contest, like whoa. Seriously, i wrote that poem on a whim after reading one of BCP's poems... lol. crazy coolness. i entered the contest for... well, i dont know why. but my many thanks to admins and such, whomever the voting pannel consisted of.
Topic two: The Mars Volta. I just picked up their 'de-loused in the comatorium' album, and it is fucking amazing. i've listened to it 5 times since getting it tonight. TMV is At the Drive-in, minus the half that went on to form Sparta. I thought sparta's 'wiretap scars' was one of the best released last year. i was blown shitless when i listened to this; it doesnt even compaire. This is everything ATDI could be, and more. it is just something amazing to listen to. the cover booklet alone makes it worth the $9 i paid for it. best album i've bought since radiohead's 'Kid A'. i shit you not.
And for the third installment, the hot summer jazz festival. My dad is a producer of this thing, and it's a weeklong jazzfest that goes on every year in minneapolis. i saw dave brubeck on tuesday. the guy is 81 fuckin years old, damn near the best piano player i've ever seen. i've been working downtown since thursday, hawkin merchandise for the people performing. if you're in the MPLS area, i suggest that you guys come down to peavy plaza (on nicollet mall, next to orchestra hall) and chill out. so... yeah.
et cetera et cetera, this is getting long. AND IT WILL BE LONGER!
i'm reading the 5th harry potter right now. it is honestly one of the most depressing kids books i ever read. like whoa. it's great writing, just frustrating as fuck. you get the emotions of the characters. i guess that's the mark of a good author...
one last bit, i talked to maggie l. hall tonight, for the first time in forever. she's a cool kid.

the gay pride festival was today, i didnt get to go... :(. they had cyndi lauper and everything. oh well... it's all gravy now. w/e... i'm not so sure me dad would exactly go for the whole me-being-gay thing.

hey, i should really be off... i need sleep.
i bid you all a goodnight!
