Raven in Green again..

nothings changed the senates still corrupt & the emporer remains insane, and every day, is a new strain of slaughter, supply lines are less protected, evil on all sides, eye can smell the death on your flesh--creeping in, trapped within the twisting fingers of fear, and all eye see is ewe, that face, those eyes, burning like leprosy, eye can see u there poisoning the air, prostituing Nationalism, and eye want to attack, to rip out your heart and lay you flat on your back, and vomit a world of agony and truth into your throbbing illness of memory...and hate guides our way, eye long for the icy slap of a belt across my back, for the acceptance of death and blind cave war, the giving sleep of depression, the sweet elucidation of savage meaningless agression, chiseled in the meaty forearms of Mother Jupiter and his slave disciples, in the harem tents--outside, just beyond the edges--eye ride, a cycoptic mare in the fires of imagination. feeding my disease, a river of plagues, eye need something to remind me I'm still sinning that pain is important, that wurdz matter, that healing is possible, that eye am not alone ...in this --guard the houses--triple the watch,--Maidens, dig up your sorcery --sirens, sharpen your rocks..ewe will eat my pain again. whatever you need unite messiah ME

Marty: sean called us too. talked to him for a while. i tell you, i wouldnt want to be him. that boy has been to afghanland and iraq....will get 3 rows of combat awards and ribbons from Iraq ALONE

Raven: wouldn't want to be him?

Marty: he was in the shit....big time in iraq. he sets up bridges...his unit is the only one of its kind in the marine corps. they won the presidential unit ciation for bravery

Raven: awesome

Raven: that's right, he's a marine, forgot about that..........first to fight.

Marty: its the medal of honor for unit awards basically

Marty: yea, and thats no shit either, he just got back about 10 days ago. apparently, bridging the rivers in iraq is the first time the marines have done that since WWI

Raven: why's that?

Marty: marines havent really needed to cross a river in a long time, apparently

Raven: apparently.....and in the desert no less.

Marty: yeah, they bridged the tirgis 3 times. now i did hear that one on CNN when the war started.

So I popped over to the Andrew site just to see.....just to see if there were any new concert dates....specificly solo concert dates because I really want to go with Jeff to one. ....and low and behold there were 2 new ones....both solo. .....both in Nashville. One of them is this thursday,..and the other is the day before my birthday. Both are during the week. ...I have class during the week...so that would be a 4+ hour trip there and back....with my having to attend class the next day,....but damn if it's not appealing...I mean what a b-day present! ...But He doesn't have a car that will make the drive..and again I don't want to drive...and he'll most likely have to work. ~sigh~ just the way things are.

Speaking of which, I get to see him tomorrow. I'm way to excited about that...I mean, I've tried to reasonably contain myself and not let people know...but I know. I know that I really want to see him, And I mean,.....is it bad that I'm really looking forward to....or hoping to kiss him? I mean.....really, I've been thinking alot about it....and dreaming about it....actual dreams...and I don't dream very often...but the subject has entered my dreams. I mean.....If I try I can still feel his kiss and I miss it. wow....am I turning in to a girl or what. But...I don't want to become one of those those psycho girls so I'm avoiding allowing these thoughts to affect my actions.

though it's making me excited about going to the dentist....because once I recover from that I get to go see him......so it's a good thing.
