There is a lot to be said about a person by the way they cut grass.
I had never given too much thought to it before last night, when somebody at a party made a comment about the two types of people in the world:
1) The ones who cut their grass in straight lines, to-ing and fro-ing. Walking back and forth, and back and forth. And back. And forth.
2) The ones who cut the perimeter first. Circling like mechanical vultures with no real prey in sight. Or like Pac-men with razor sharp teeth; the patch of unwittingly resilient grass in the center of the yard growing smaller all the while. Like the green eye of a dying hurricane.
But really.
There are a million ways to cut your grass.
And there is nothing important to be learned by studying any of them.
Just cut your fucking grass.
Happy Birthday to the Wolf.
If you ever become a professional wrestler,
I will still be friends with you.
But if you try to put me in a sleeper-hold,
the deal is off.
You and Me
We shot at the windows of the cars on your street
using your older brother's slingshot
filled with week old fruit salad
and boiled eggs
and raw eggs too.
We didn't really do that.
It would've smelled awful.
A Death in late june.
When my dreams die
- as all dreams do -
I hope they go peacefully,
in their sleep.
When my dreams die
- as all dreams do -
I will wake up and wonder
if it's because I haven't been making my bed.
Not once in ten years.
or maybe it's because I stopped flossing
so long ago,
or because I go to sleep high
everynight
and they feel like maybe I don't need them anymore.
I can't really blame them.
When my dreams die
-as all dreams do-
I'll make my bed that morning.
And I'll floss.
When my dreams die
-as all dreams do-
I think I'll die too.
They've always seemed to have the right idea.

I feel this way about most things.
Leaky *drip* faucet.
*Drip, drip, drip* - I should fix you.
But no! Drip some more.

Busy as a bee
In six hours
I've peed five times.
All for $7.75 an hour.
Which means I make $9.30
every
time
I
pee.
We should all drink more water.
High coups:
It doesn't matter
If you cry from happiness.
The tears taste the same.
But through creation,
I could smoke my life away.
I'm okay with that.
The library smells,
like the worst sandwich ever.
Stale bread and book glue.
Today I made pea-
-nut butter and jelly soup.
Gross gross gross gross gross.
Walk a mile in
nothing but your birthday suit.
Don't really do that.
Iran has enough
problems without your sass-songs.
David A. Samberg.
If I had something
else to do, I probably
still wouldn't do it.
When I'm bored at work
And I drink too much coffee, I think things like:
Oh what I would give,
to be able to shoot lazers out my eyes.
The way I feel sometimes:

On the day
when the sun explodes
and the beaches all turn to glass,
and the eggs scramble themselves inside the hens,
I won't say I love you.
On the day
when the sun explodes
and the sky-lab disintegrates in space,
and all the corn, anywhere, pops at once,
I won't say anything at all.
I'll probably just sit at home
and melt to the mattress on my floor.
