When I see a dick, I'm gonna call them on it.

Jackass, dick, it's not directed toward men except that it seems to be men doing the dickish, jackassy things these past couple of weeks.

The Boys Club where some girls are allowed to play, too.

Being a woman fully grown I tend to hang where the Real Men are.

I like Men. I like Intelligent Men. I like you, NYC_SKP.

You are alright; I don't care what they say.

Only they are the last to do so.

That passes as high intellectual conversation in some circles.

Fed from the wound from
Which we were bled

Vomiting filth in
Our soft cave heads

Chewing on tissue,
Tendon and fat

Destroying the things
They do not understand!


I haven't heard that song before.

and of course Billie Holiday. I liked singing folk songs at summer camp but I never much got into 60s folk in terms of listening.

I have to tell myself... Self, sleep is my friend. I need sleep. Sleep is good.,

Maybe you need to tell your self.... Grinnin'

Good thing I didn't put up the picture of nightmare before Christmas, that I considered. Just make sure the seat is down before you go to bed. It will be fine.

I'm a bit like you, maybe. Up too late, thinking, restless...

Two years ago I stayed at a beachside cheap place on Maui but close to ocean, set my phone on the window sill.

OMG great sounds to sleep by!

Since then I've found great tracks on youtube.

Just search for "8 hours" and "surf" or "rain" or "lightning"...

Great stuff but you're right, the DSOTM isn't as cerebral...

Also good, Peter Gabriel back in the day, the Lamb Lies Down on Broadway.

It's a freaking tradition now. It'll take more than one email chastising people there for copycatting this group to break that habit.
