If you see me laughing

Thursday, 15. October 2009, 03:07:42

Some Hmong people tend to smile or grin, when they're yelled at. It's a cultural thing, it expresses embarrassment or insecurity. It's not that they're laughing at you or anything.

Atmosphere

Walk in silence,
Don't turn away, in silence.
Your confusion,
My illusion,
Worn like a mask of self-hate,
Confronts and then dies.
Don't walk away.

Goodbye Mario

Tuesday, 19. May 2009, 15:24:51

Mario Benedetti was the übbermost Urugayan writer of the last century, his work got to touch me at the middle of this decade and yesterday he passed away.

I wish I could say more but I hardly knew him or his work, except for what I read a few years ago and his last poem:

Mi vida ha sido como una farsa
Mi arte ha consistido
En que esta no se notara demasiado
He sido como un levitador en la vejez
El brillo marrón de los azulejos
Jamás se separó de mi piel.

5 years blogging

Yesterday, my blog turned 5 years old. I have been blogging since 2004 and to celebrate the fact, a nice quote:

Ain't no need to watch where I'm goin'; just need to know where I've been.

There's no one like you in the universe

And during the struggle
They will pull us down
But please, please let's use this chance to
Turn things around
And tonight we can truly say
Together we're invincible

When I woke up you were gone again

Sunday, 1. February 2009, 08:30:06

I went out walking with a bible and a gun
The word of God lay heavy on my heart
I was sure I was the one.

Now Jesus, don’t you wait up, Jesus I’ll be home soon.
Yeah, I went out for the papers, told her I’d be back by noon.
Yeah, I left with nothing but the thought you’d be there too
Looking for you.

I believe in Father Christmas

I wish you a hopeful christmas
I wish you a brave new year
All anguish pain and sadness
Leave your heart and let your road be clear

They said there'll be snow at christmas
They said there'll be peace on earth
Hallelujah noel be it heaven or hell
The christmas you get you deserve

Call me Roobii

Tuesday, 23. December 2008, 17:43:24

Some years ago — never mind how long precisely — having little or no money in my purse, and nothing particular to interest me on shore, I thought I would sail about a little and see the watery part of the world. It is a way I have of driving off the spleen and regulating the circulation.

You already know how this will end

And in your heart,
You know it to be true,
You know what you gotta do.
They all depend on you.
And you already know how...
this will end.



From the Gears of War 2 trailer (Rated M for Mature)... gosh, gotta get that game!

More than lights expose who you are

Tuesday, 21. October 2008, 16:37:45

Well I loved this town like you did
I'll burn it to the ground
Packed your things and then
you were gone
Called a new place home

Like you do
And you'll never change
