songs and lamentations from the lost and doomed
|
Out here is the
forest spectral fragrances
devour the meek
the hallowness of these
gleaming resignations
will wash up on the
shore to let the seagull
fight over and pick after,
just wait til these
sunbursts begin to droop
and all the beauty is mopped
away til it's exposed for
what it truly is,
human nature,
ugliness in dawns ebony
closet,
gravity has been banished,
everythin else is lost
in between and continually
dancing,
new age visionaries roast
in their apathy ovens,
the ability to drown out
reality is now born into
the young,
letting it fester like
a cancerous cyst in the
womb of generation:Oblivion.
by Adam Miller
1999
This guy is one poet who deserves recognition (and money!) but perhaps I'm biased, since he's my love.

The Disillusionary's Guide to Books, Music & Movies
|
Books to Read:
-ANY Tom Robbins novel, especially Another Roadside Attraction and Even Cowgirls get the Blues
-Any and all of Hunter S. Thompson's AMAZING body of work. His scathing wit and loathful criticisms ring true today!
-Brave New World, by Aldous Huxley
-The Mists of Avalon, by Marion Zimmer Bradley...(a brilliant work on Arthurian legend told from the feminine perspective, i.e. Morgan le Fey)
-Yertle the Turtle, The Sneetches and The Butter Battle Book, by Dr. Seuss
Music:
Although I will tolerate most types, my blood curdles listening to rap, country and the Backstreet Boys-genre of music.
Natalie Merchant, Tori Amos, Indigo Girls, Sarah McLachlan, Beck, Rachmaninoff, Paul Simon, Phish, Dave Matthews Band, Radiohead, Elliot Smith, Loreena McKennitt, Dar Williams, Ani diFranco, The Doors, Led Zeppelin and on and on...
