With you/ All I know

Some people live in a house on the hill 
And wish they were some place else
There's nobody there
When the evening is still 
Secrets with no one to tell 

Some I have known have a ship where they sleep with sounds of rocks on the coast 
They sail over oceans five fathoms deep 
But can't find what they want the most 

Even now when I'm alone 
I've always known with you 
I am home 

Some live in towns
Cardboard shack on concrete 
All bluster and bustling life 
They search for the color they can never quite see 
Cause it's all white on white 

Even now when I'm alone 
I've always known with you 
I am home 
[repeat]

For me it's a glance and the smile on your face the touch of your hands,
And an honest embrace 
For where I lay it's you I keep, 
This changing world I fall asleep 
With you all I know is I'm coming home,
Coming home

_Static_

I'd always thought it's automatic/ To grow into a soul less static/ But here I am upon the same spot/ Attempting to lift off into space. - KT Tunstall

"The path to a pure and righteous self can only be found on the neon dance floor.
On this path you will come across outlets that enable thoughts of desire, envy, lust, and if you 
are lost enough to be found you will no longer be left outside looking in. But if all you want is everything 
then you will be left to dance till your death, it's up to you whether you consider that your devil or an angel in disguise. 
Remember no two ideals are alike or equal, but both could electrify your chapel and leave you imprisoned"

I love you all and cannot wait to being this journey across seas.

 I would love if you could upload the short answer questions up on the blog! Just create a new post : ) I want all of us to be all high tech and communication is a key. I think this is a great idea and will keep us all involved and aware. The answers to the questions that you will see in the video can be short as you want or can be anything you want. I would love if you threw in a random song as well. All inspiration is helpful inspiration! 

PS: I know we are all very busy little machines but please try and respond to the questions. I see all you online on facebook chat.. so don't even do me! hahaha. Love : ) Think of your electric binary name. I want to see what it would be.



---------- Janelle Monae "Neon Valley Street" 

May this song reach your heart 
May your ears love the sweet melody 
Every note, every chord 
I've arranged them for you and for me 

May the sound of my voice be your guide 
Bring you closer to me 
Let us bathe in the noise 
Let the love in your heart speak to me 

For now, I'll pretend 
I'm holding your hand 

May this song reach your heart 
May this song reach your heart 
May this song reach your heart 
May this song journey on to you 

We met alone forbidden in the city 
Running fast through time like Tubman and John Henry 
But the time was wrong 

Illegal aliens moaned 
It's such a pity that the city's just a danger zone 
Atomic blues bombing hearts like Iraqis in Babylon 
The droid control will take your soul and rate it 
Berate, slay it 
You hate it and debate it but you don't get caught 
And outlaw outrunning the law, ha 

May the strings make you smile 
May they always remind you of me 
For now let's pretend 
I'm holding your hand 

May this song reach your heart 
May this song reach your heart 
May this song reach your heart 
May this song journey on for you

------Madness By: Alanis 

I've been most unwilling
To see this turmoil of mine
The thought of sitting with this
Has me paralyzed

With this prolonged exposure
To near and averted eyes
I think that I've been waiting
Such mileage for empathizing

Now I see the madness in me
Is brought out in the presence of you
Now I know the madness lives on
When you're not in the room
Though I'd love to blame you for all
I'd miss these moments of opportune
You simply brought this madness to light
And I should thank you

Oh, thank you
Much thanks for this bird's eye view
Oh, thank you
For your most generous triggers

It's been all too easy
To cross my arms and roll my eyes
The thought of dropping all arms
Leaves me terrified
[Madness Lyrics On http://www.elyricsworld.com/ ]
And now I see the madness in me
Is brought out in the presence of you
Now I know the madness lives on
When you're not in the room
Though I'd love to blame you for all
I'd miss these moments of opportune
You simply brought this madness to light
And I should thank you

Oh, thank you
Much thanks for this bird's eye view
Oh, thank you
For your most generous triggers

I'd have to give up knowing
And give up being right
You, inadvertent hero
You, angel in disguise

And now I see the madness in me
Is brought out in the presence of you
And now I know the madness lives on
When you're not in the room
And though I'd love to blame you for all
I'd miss these moments of opportune
You simply brought this madness to light
And I should thank you

Oh, thank you
Much thanks for this bird's eye view
Oh, thank you
For your most generous triggers


-Amen-

Penetration




 I think all sex is actually really quite disgusting. Penetration in general is just plain weird... Especially the way in which men conceptualize sex as just penetration alone. Something about it always seems forced no matter if it's "love" or not. I suppose women can rape men, but I wonder if it would still be considered rape if the roles were flipped? Sense it's almost always men who are the controlling, war hungry, slobs? Is the emotional sense of a women her way of perhaps penetrating? Or is all sex just rape?


(And no I am not saying if a man beats a women that it is or is not rape. That is just something else entirely, and it's also awful but at the same time defends the point that men believe themselves to be all powerful or some bullshit. If there were no women it would just be a bunch of men with lots of guns and dicks and no enemies to shoot. (they made the bombs, they made the weapons.. It was not a random alien child named E.T) When really without women we would be absolutely fucking no where. We are not some kind of pre programed computer as if the day we are born boys begin thinking of money, businesses, and sex. But the nature of the beast itself has become so fucked and repetitive in are society today that you can never really tell if your looking at the real thing or just the reflection. It was not that long ago that women were even aloud to A: write, B: vote, C: were freed. Basically still today women are perceived as a passive entity. Well no fucking shit they are because we made them that way! (Oh and the reason they were on so many fucking kitchen commercials was because you left them about 2 options. That included getting fucked and cleaning) The ones that place the burden are the ones responsible for the outcome. And should also not be surprised and wonder why women get pissed if they too cannot "control" a man. Oppression becomes part of your blood if it lingers in your heart and mind long enough. It becomes who you are. It's healing takes years, upon years and as we have seen before and are seeing this very moment it can tear apart an entire society. Even in a country based off of this rigid sharp as hell set of morals! That are as much fluff as a damn marshmallow. The idea of being something appose to actually trying to understand the ways of becoming are for some reason much more powerful...? I suppose the imagination allows that kind of freedom. But if you do prefer imagination over reality then don't be all surprised and shocked when all of the sudden everyone begins to get real pissed due to your lack of real life human interaction or actual compassion. Just because you read a 2,000 year old book don't mean shit. Even religious standards deny women constantly.. WHEN HELLO!!! HELLO, are you THERE??? MEN ARE THE ONES THAT WROTE THE BIBLE and While women on the other hand were thought to be witches and were burnt to death. hmm??? So the next time a man stands in front of you and 400 random ass people and preaches some fluff about men saving the world I suggest you begin questioning the authenticity. I mean it's scary as shit that their ain't no 90 year old women in the bible building giant ships and single handily putting one of every animal on board. It's something we should all think about because if we can only recognize one side then how the hell can we believe any of this to be true? If we are basing are freedom off a book that dealt little with freedom in the first place then maybe we need to just move along. But it's just like a man to hold onto every fucking thing and pretend he's holding nothing at all. In the end I say it's about beginning again, it's about regrouping and again becoming a community. It's about realizing that we are all equal! Men just have dicks, and women vaginas (simple as that people) It's about realizing that nothing at all has changed the only difference is the amount of media, excess and distraction to cover up what's obviously still there. No wonder why women are killing their bodies trying to be something for "A MAN" (START being something for yourself) Don't ever feel that it is somehow embodied within you to please the opposite sex. Because that too is a load of shit. Stop having sex with guys and go masturbate for a while. Let men finally not get what they in no way deserve. Give them a book and some writing material. Tell them you don't want a child and tell them you'll write someday soon.
