i love taking pictures and i love writing poetry...

admit...
admit that things are not that bad
acknowledge that you're whole
and know that everything you're feeling is inside your soul.
i want to draw you naked...
(written on or around 5/26/2010)
i want to draw you naked
i want to see your soul
i want to touch your heart
and i want to fill your bowl
i want to feed you cereal
i want to love your bones
i want to kiss you day and night
and run over all your orange cones
i can close my eyes...
i can close my eyes
i can think
i can feel
i can breathe
the future awaits
the present exists
the past brought us here
continue the flow
and create

are you ready to hear some good songs?
and now, click here. for another amazing song. (i got a private personalized performance today in my living room from battlehooch, singing this song to me. actually, just pat and a.j. sang this song. with a little tom mixed in there. but oh man, was it good. and oh man did i swoon. and oh man did they do a great job. now i'm in love with this song! "crying," by roy orbison.")
my house mate told me that i seem like i've been on ecstasy all week. [this is not a poem.]
too bad i haven't been doing any ecstasy lately. i'm actually just having a really great week.
i have two art shows coming up that just got confirmed this week -- one at a salon in the mission district in sf and another one at the sports basement in sf. i've never been to either locations, but both shows came to me and asked if i'd hang work. absolutely. seeking out shows can be a lot of work, so when the shows come to me, i usually say yes, of course.
i also go a job working 1 or 2 days a week at sf's great american music hall. i start on friday and i couldn't be happier about it. i used to work in a music venue in santa cruz and have missed the inspiring creative vibes. i'm happy to be a part of another music venue. show hook ups! lots of good shows coming up in march... i'll be seeing toro y moi there, thanks to my friend who got me the job, who is in the band castle, that i photographed last week. (you can see two of the pictures in the previous blog post.) her husband works at bottom of the hill, and will be hooking me up with show tickets as well :) i also paid to see warpaint i think at the independent next month. can't wait! good music. good job. good friends. good life. lucky lucky lucky streak.
