| 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 --Wurdz by Otep Shamaya |
 The Gangs of New YorkDecember 24, 2002 8:48 p.m. Related Reading  My mom and I went and saw The Gangs of New York. That's right I fell for all the hype, ..the Television trailers and the giant unread article in Rolling Stone. Want to know my opinion? This movie kicks serious ass. Part of the reason I went is because I am a pre Titanic Leonardo DiCaprio fan. ...What's Eating Gilbert Grape, The Basketball Diaries (one of the most unknown underrated films)....and post Titanic..The Beach.
Yet,...I think that the absolute shining momemt of acting in this film is Daniel Day-Lewis as William Cutting AKA Bill The Butcher. He created an absolutely EPIC Villian,..the likes hasn't been seen in along time. I can liken him to Begbie from Trainspotting (who I think is an amazing villian,..one you just love to hate). What makes this one specficly great is how multi-dementional the a makes the character. At one point in the film you want to hate him with all your being,..but something makes you love the man,...some sort of good in him. ...It's just amazing. Plus...the world which they created for this film is perfect. You entirely believe you are there in every detail. I haven't seen a film do that this good in a long time ...with the exception of Reign of Fire. I think this is absolutely a must see (be warned there is a great deal of Graphic violence...which should be expected since it IS Scorsese. and therefore not recommended for children..) And I have a strong feeling that this film could lose something moving to the small screen. Epic Film Classics as I'm am calling this one, need to be seen on the Big Screen. Don't miss the opprotunity. |
