Funny People



Ah Herro Preeze,

I've been enjoying making people laugh a lot lately, seems like I've been on a roll for a while. Maybe that's some sort of coping mechanism for the departure of my ladyfriend. Whatever it is, I know I feel better at very few times than when I'm making people laugh and smile. I even cracked my mom up by saying bitch the other day. Now that's awesome. Sometimes I worry that I try too hard, that it all seems contrived, because I know I can spot that in other people from a mile away. I think, though, that I've built up some equity with the people around me where they'll give me the benefit of the doubt and not assume I'm an ass. That'll be an adjustment at school, where I haven't really earned that.

Good night

Good night, moon.
Good night, sweet girl.
Good night, worries and protests.
Good night, hunger and a starving world.
Good night, lingering memory of a too-short kiss.
Good night, to all I've ever wanted to be, and all I never will.
Good night, I'm off to dream of a love I've found, a hand I've held.
Good night, until the morning and a new perspective.
Good night, it's time to breathe more slowly.
Good night, your eyes are still before me.
Good night, hopes and dreams.
Good night, my love.
Good night, moon.
