I reject the expectations of society
Only to crawl back seeking its comforts

do you sometimes ache for someone you don't know? a fortune sold and bought without a thought. justifiability, deniability, versatility. what i seek, in fact what we all seek, is route-less, unkempt, unconscious. predisposed to writing a story for the things we do not have, yet. not for the things we have now, nor for the people we know. keeping time for fear of its silky fabric slipping through our fingers, and out the door, down the stairs, and out of town. how do i hold onto someone who knows nothing of me.

I don't want to be mediocre

how terribly cliche it would be to commit suicide in art schhol

My heart is filled with constellations
Patterns in the infinite
Fill me with false purpose
Reaching forever for meaning
When we are disparate

"There is constant change amidst the persistence of traditions..."

i want to make art that makes people wonder, that reminds us of the full capacity of the human experience, and the spillage that occurs when we allow ourselves to truly devote ourselves to the experience of being human.

i do want to make art that makes you think. the huh, wooow. not the woow, huh.

"The only important elements in any society are the artistic and the criminal, because they alone, by questioning the society's values, can force it to change." -Samuel R. Delany

sometimes i want to say and do ridiculous things because they seem truer than what's sensible.

as if we know what we are doing...

I usually approach life like a formula, assuming one part this and two parts that will make everything come together. And most of the time I come out with something like that elementary school science experiment blue goop, with the accompanying mess to clean up.

It kind of feels pointless unless you have a sense of humour about all of this..

read the pages as they burn

the reality is that there is a lot of bad art.

making art is trying to get further and further away from the truth we think we know, and closer to one we can't.
