  • roundabouts are useless why were they created?
  • we unknowingly give the fate of our entire lives to the driver every time we get into the passenger side of the car
  • as an american, its really too easy for us to get past customs while traveling to another country. I could be a serial bomber and the fat useless man on the other side of the glass would have no way of knowing
  • titles given to poor countries like "third world" is dehumanizing
  • people in the US venerate and deify our brave boys and girls in green to an unhealthy scary degree... thank you for your service!
  • fight club is not a good movie but se7en is
  • places like the DMV, city hall, etc. are very scary places

cool facts

  • during a festival called lupercalia guys would go out onto the street and whip random people to produce fertility in women
  • if you mentioned a goat in front of caligula you were sentenced to death
  • Also caligula: ordered his guards to throw a section of the crowd at arena into the pit between gladiatorial games. they were eaten
  • there were 4 main teams of chariot racers that were basically like NBA teams just four of them. The green team was for the poor people
  • the chariot racers chained themselves to the chariots so if they fell off during a crash they were dragged around the track until they died

Some days I put the people in their places at the table, bend their legs at the knees, if they come with that feature, and fix them into the tiny wooden chairs.

All afternoon they face one another, the man in the brown suit, the woman in the blue dress, perfectly motionless, perfectly behaved.

But other days, I am the one who is lifted up by the ribs, then lowered into the dining room of a dollhouse to sit with the others at the long table.

Very funny, but how would you like it if you never knew from one day to the next if you were going to spend it

striding around like a vivid god, your shoulders in the clouds, or sitting down there amidst the wallpaper, staring straight ahead with your little plastic face?

At night in a fit of half sleep

In the hours where time feels tired

I tuck the curtain into the space between the window

And the creaky worn shades

So that moonlight cannot pour into my room like a pitcher from the sky, But Little slivers of light still manage to peek through

any lines and openings it can find

Spilling all over my pillowcase, a mess of cold grey

And now instead of seeing nothing

I see the green flower pattern that I lay my head on every night

Now I am thinking Not of how to block out the moon, but of how beautiful the color green looks

Mixed in with its grey

And that maybe, I am not so tired after all
