Cosmic Brownies
I saw you taking keys off of a key-ring.
You said these doors no longer open up for him
but there are cats scratching at an empty dish
hoping for the sound of sustenance long abandoned
by just hidden ribs. You’re barely covered by skin
bruised and withering in remembrance.
You said it would never happen to you again
but it did, didn’t it?

Take Nothing
You will never see me again, not like this, as I am. We are a construct; Memories and anecdotes of only what you allowed me to see, only what I needed to hear. But who you were then is always changing, is up to interpretation, is blurring at the edges never to be shown or really known again love, always. Always love.
Our bodies did not yet want for lack of youth but we’re dying love....

thisisgrant asked: In response to your recent post. Tracy Chapman's Fast Car would be excellent.. although if I could make a suggestion. The ex-band Dear and the Headlights have been a favorite of mine for a few years now. In my opinon Sweet Talk, Run in the Front, Mother Make Me Golden, Flowers for my Brain, and Grace are all solid. Regardless whatever you dudes do it won't be any less than perfect.

"Attentat" or "When the Bough Breaks"
A thousand gathered at the clearing; A thousand gathered all they had to fight back. When a cause becomes a prairie fire the unwashed pray for rain though mouths are dry, but when the storm clouds gather every watchful eye is searching for an exit sign. A sign that reads, “it wasn’t me but the market that stole your shift.” The invisible hand still holds the whip pushing you...

pickedlast asked: Plans to come to Washington soon? I think a lot of people here would be stoked as hell. When Jake and I saw you and stickup kid in Nebraska, that show really stuck with me for some reason so I really want to see you guys again. I don't know which one of you runs this, assuming it's Tony though haha. Hope all is well in the CL camp.

Anonymous asked: I dig your guys' acoustic "Make Believe" EP, and well, everything else you all do. What's the meaning behind "Ripple In A Tidal Wave?" More importantly the line itself, "we made a ripple in a tidal wave." You guys make the days easier, thanks for that. Take care dudes

ballinacup asked: what are you guys listening to right now?
stevelayman asked: I think you'd have an interesting view on this. Back a few weeks ago, we had a peaceful protest at my college in solidarity with OWS. A few young men voiced their opinion in favor of re instituting the barter system. Do you feel that the OWS protests would be more powerful if the people voicing their opinions on the matter were (for a lack of a better phrase) more educated on the problems at...
