nancy's hell 02:45
thank god for open door policies how else could i broach something like nancy’s dilapidated hovel and her sad sad eyes when i visited with her family all the documents in tow her back was turned she wouldn’t even look at us you've made such an impression with your kitschy tourist shirt and your beautiful abjection your propensity for hurt i think often of the man you must have loved with all you were and how you must have disappointed when your secrets ran the earth he’d said, “i love you babygirl, cause you can read my mind” “i love you, too” “stop the tape, i cannot live in pieces – cut the mic, i am so full of hatred for the weak”

all my love through all the shit i’ve read junko’s name forever in my head “but your nights are long – i don’t care what they say, you can do no wrong your conviction becomes you, yeah never change to the clouds and back my love, do you feel the same?” i think you’re better off ten thousand years from here head between your knees and all hands over your eyes i would never go to DAB i would never go to MIA “i try my best but you’re all the same, i think you’ll never know the ways” a nervous motion towards her hand “baby don’t ask me how i am, i’m so angry now you don’t understand” the lights went all the way – “aileen, my head aileen, my head” – down “aileen, my head aileen, my head” – down “baby don’t ask me how i am i’m so angry now you don’t understand” the lights went all the way –

TRTTS 03:14
box dye napalm red, i am so it in it i’m the one who can’t take off from here vintage western shirts galore and lime mezcal swag my bitch wife on the phone you wait til i get home your follies, your fantasies, and your faith rebellion built and tumbled no sons to take your name i swear i would have never done the same it’s yours – your follies, your fantasies, your future, and your faith it’s yours – your turn to call it cheap

i hate that bother dog to death and one more foot will keep her down i hate the way she combs her hair the water will not keep you clean the air will suffocate the hens the clouds will suffocate the hens marauder come and strike us down i cannot give another day i’ve seen them driving round in cars that’s nice now be real with me so cold outside. you’re funny too. i feel it now. this naked room. and why be here? all caught up in the weeds – with prozac in your teeth where the water’s supposed to be. if complacence is the key, and affect is the wall, then your fist is of the hope that’s gonna fuck it all. just agree with me – atrazine in the air. your grandpa’s everywhere. the hot beams – rob me of speech. til stars be green. suffocate the hens. it cannot keep you clean. the only man of energy, yes the revolution’s pride had trained a hundred women just to kill an unborn child (leonard cohen)
