Sometimes we must rewind Find what's in our mind And design a reality around that. Sometimes we play mice to fat cats Riddled with questions About how to pursue the dreams How to puruse the scheme Which leads to the seemless beaming lights That hold tight And never let go, But in this shaking trance It's hard to hold on even with the feelings So strong Knowing I stand in the wrong With no right To celebrate the delight of life All the strife I feel Is mine and appealing Till I get that old apoligic feeling Apoligies I learned kneeling in the church To sin and beg forgivness The easiest way out To forgive humanity Worked since we begat time When we could put words to prime A clunky robots gears With blood and love and fear. All we hold dear drifts away Till we are the sand through the hour glass figure Sugar on a wet teaspoon Disolving, yet to be enjoyed Bouyed but guiding ships In the right direction. One day I'll be home So inconsistent falling down Till I feel my place safe and sound I frown at all the times I let you down Rather then make any sound That might bring you down.

It hurts to say goodbye to you Knowing it's the last time, Knowing you won't remember anyhow. The times we sat together Talking for hours About nothing at all. You would ask me if I'm happy, I'd say yes, And you'd tell me That's the most important thing. I wondered if you were happy And you'd simply reply You couldn't complain. You'd listen to the radio Sitting in your recliner day after day Listening to the obituaries to see If you'd passed away. And as I sit and think about it I know tomorrow you'll be sad To realize you are gone. It's your time. You worked so hard all those years And now you can finally rest. I'll miss you Opa. As leaves fall, Leading to winters of discontent I know the bulbs you planted will bloom, And your legacy will be the flowers. Check out www.monkmanmedia.com

today is for tomorrow, yesterday a sorrow we'll never have to suffer again. alas, bring me to the light. I know there is a sun over the horizon, i can wait here forever. Sometimes the night doesn't seem long enough, frozen in a stand firm and free, knowing all the while i'll drift away. content, filler, content i am. Knowing I am spam in a pre-processed world, connected; feeding you my status. tubed into a cold, unfeeling apparatus, stick stuck, fat pockets let me breathe. every poison my heart desires, on fire, a spire to my gods, across the world; the press shall read, despite our imperfections, we are balanced. un fou, a le sandwich de la vie, burnt toast and burned out, tossed out for better bred, delightful tastes of waste, it's what we do well, buy sell buy sell buy sell i choose page 34, and walk through a door to a distant future landscape on a mount of snow in the search of destiny the sun comes up, melts the snow, the landslide pulls me down but i struggle back up through the rubbish and spam and find my feet once again on solid grounds of a disintegrating castle. wah wah wahhhhhhhhhh.
The joints no longer bend Strained I twisted wet and weary Waiting for a day to come When I can rest. And the blessings I've been forgiven Living in an akward shell Knowing everyone is trying as hard To make a living And I'm living it up as well In my own wired way. Instances granted Take to much for granite The eroding planet No time for crying as the body Decays, Many ways it could be much worse Cause I know I'll crawl back To my warm bed.

I wrote you a poem A rant An irrelevant piece of prose I suppose you could see now If it had sent, But some crook of programming Blocked my shot at explanation For the frustration I feel For not calling. I've been racing around Knowing I'll get up before I've had the chance to sleep sound Bound to sweat for my welfare To stubborn for welfare Jobs overlapping Slapping myself silly To stay awake Breaking commitments silently Feel like an ass for passing as something less then all I can be No periods, Just a run on day In steel shoes with a walking blues Stradling my brow Knowing some how It will all be okay.

Last weekend, I joined my step brother for a little getaway, so to speak. We headed up to his cottage with nothing but the essentials, coffee, booze, cigarettes, laugh, and etc. This was my first time going to his cottage, previously his Dad took his life in that very spot, hense he now has it in his possession. ( Some of you know I'm not a what you call it, "a normal kid" I just understand somethings people cannot. ) I walked into the building and immediately got weird vibes from it's own presence. Like a stale and disturbed energy, and for some reason it was pulling me to the back of the building... I walked into what looked like a bedroom, untouched, dusty in it's condition. As soon as I stopped moving I felt as if I wasn't supposed to be in there. Back to the Crew and party. Last one up, last one to put out the fire, just drinking to shake of that vibe. I eventually cleaned everything up and crashed on the couch in the sun room. Late in brewed out witching hours, I got this weird tingling on my face, realized right then and there it was a spider mowing on my flesh. slapped my face, and shook my hair out and in that moment, I felt that static once again, whipped my head to the side just to see this black figure intensely coming forward over my body. In shear shock, I passed out. Waking up to tell my brother to "Sell it now!"

i had a dream of you 2 months ago, started searching, through this wet coloured acid like dreamstate. deeper, and deeper; adumbrant inner thoughts.
everything was in dark blues, and greens. the landscape was filled with dry trees. the sand like ground was chalk like and swirling. then woke up for a split second, to see my room. softly closing my eyes, i began to view pin up blank letter sized papers, all in proper distance... blowing in the wind. violently pulling me back into the vast landscape, directly face first into you, you float as if you were submerged, and as soon as that happened, you whispered, we're connected. and i sprung up out of bed. all distorted, questioning inside, tearing the dream apart for answers. still scarred. strung out, me o my in my can of worms. still strung out, and sinking..fast.
Day bleeds into night and back to day, Jealous of the setting sun though I know it works all day. Waiting for the time to come, Where I can sleep the night away. Stay later at barbeques and laugh the evening away, But alas, It wasn't yesterday. Check out www.monkmanmedia.com

Said I'd send a letter But something went amiss, I sealed it with a kiss And stamped it with my tears, It keeps coming back to me Postage due. I wrote the address clear, Don't they know to give it to you Can't they see my love is free, Why should I pay a fee? Well If you get this Email me.
Watch the sun rise Breaking across the horizon Changing the landscape Like opprutunity. Looks like it may be A beautiful day But only time can tell. The weather can not be contained, Rather prepared for By showing some judgement, You can smell rain from miles away, But you can also deny it. I see a bright future If I can set myself to task Follow through with ambition As the sun, floats over and over The sky above, And in time, With effort, all good shall come.

A world in an axis Always balanced, Things come around The good people know That suffering is a set up For better things. When things are going to well To prepare for hell. There is balance in it all, Sybiotic nature, The rhythm of a beating heart, The expanding, collapsing universe, Within and without. A path to persue, Good begatting good, Bad begatting bad, Forgivness is key. Forgive me if I struggle to forget Every time I've felt let down, And silently longed to tell you. I've held back, Thinking your freindship a gift, Something not to expect But be thankful for When recieved. Check out www.monkmanmedia.com

passion in the modern age an e-novel Introduction: STOP STALKING YOUR EX GIRLFREIND I said it, Ex. You fucked it up, you fucked around. so please, I ask this politely with the utmost sincerity, fuck off. If you loved her you wouldn't of pulled all this shit on her. All you love is yourself and your own interests. Do your blonde or whoever was (is) on the side; but step off her. I ask this kindly as one gentleman to you. She is a beautiful soul and that you would continuously trample, calling at 2AM to ramble about what a loser you are, only shows you lack dignity and self respect. She deserves better then you, and you have proved this through your actions. I write this of my own accord, as someone who cares for her and is tired of hearing your name. If you have problems, go see a counselor. Do not place the weight of your emotional waste on her shoulders. It is unfair and disgusting. Again I hope this doesn't fall on deaf ears, if there is a next time, this will be much louder. ..................Exhibitionist Affair........................

Why not?" and thus this letter comes to pass. I met all your criteria, and you met some of mine, not to say not all, I'm not uber critical, but I do enjoy normal people. About me, I'm 22, a waiter, poet, model, slacker. I smoke, so I guess you have stopped reading this letter and I am free to fill the rest of this message with the names of things I like. Coffee, Candles, Hemingway, Buffalo '66, Walking, spring in bloom, fall when it's crisp, rock and roll, singing under or above my breath, bacon. I dislike idiots(when the stupidity isn't on purpose and is destructful (ie. Bush)). The jury is still out on vegetarians, but I prefer omnivores. Whatever,, here’s a picture, maybe we could grab dinner some night. I am not looking for a lover, but as best said by Ezra Pound, "It rests me to converse with beautiful women even though we talk nothing but nonsense"(Tame Cat). I am a Dog person, had a cat, we didn't get along. Respond a. yes or b. no, Ike Theodorus Jefferson ---------------------------------- Quoting Mary-Anne Omellette : There was no picture with the "here's a picture" part. As for model... I don't know. I hope that wasn't an attempt to impress me, but you seem nice enough to not to something as tacky as that. And, smoke away, just don't blow it in my face or smoke in my apartment, if you ever are invited over. Too early to tell. And always carry gum. Too early to tell that too. ; )
So, I would go on and write about myself. I'm a young, confident, easygoing happy female. I'm not looking for something serious, we can have dinner or drinks and see how it goes, we should do the picture exchange to make sure we are attracted to each other though. Who knows, maybe I'm not your cup of tea.
Hemmingway, which works of his have you studied? My double major is in literature studies, so I did some of his work. I was actually at the bookstore and picked up a ton of stuff today, I love having a good book and a martini.
If you have a myspace that would work, I only have two pictures of me up on mine right now, and they aren't the greatest. But they're recent, were taken last week, so take a look. That, and I won't have to go and explain random things about me. That's a drag. ha ha

You called me on it, so I guess I better fess up. I am not an established Model, I got drafted into an agency of the street and haven't made a cent off it yet. I have one picture at www.myspace.com/no_space_left. I have read almost all of Hemingways novels and short stories. My favorite is A Farewell to Arms, I find he writes romance so beautifully it is almost absurdist. We probably pass each other in the street, I live at Bathurst and Barton (for the next month) and work at Insomnia on the day shift. Check out the picture, It isn't me, just a photo (my hair is much messier). Your pretty cute. I gotta get ready for work so I have to cut short.

Ike ------------------------------- CCQuoting Mary-Anne Omellette : Insomnia... Insomnia.... That sounds so familiar. Anyways, the only reason I said that is because I think most people get a shot at modeling at some point or another. I did it a few years back, and actually made some pretty good money, but my dignity was worth more. And the makeup irritated my skin.
Anyways, I'm jealous. I've been doing the job search thing for weeks now, with no luck. It's getting pretty boring, I should do another resume day on wednesday. Do you have any suggestions?
I have to cut it short, for different reasons... my kitten is jumping on the keyboard and this is taking a loooong time to write... ha ha

Apartment search continues, know any nice one bedroom or bachelors in the neighborhood? Nice as in "affordable is nice".
I didn't know modeling was so common, where I come from, Auburn Ontario, CA (http://www.mapquest.com/maps/map.adp? formtype=address&addtohistory=&address=141%20Goderich% 20Street&city=Auburn&sta te=ON&zipcode=N0M&country=CA&geodiff=1) I never met a model, we had tractor pulls and demolition derbies. I couldn't pull tractors very well, and was much too cautious a driver.
Perhaps Wednesday night we could go to the labyrinth lounge for the martini night, $5cover $3-$5 martini's or perhaps a bite at the victory cafe Tuesday evening. The annex is a fun place.

That's actually pretty cool of you to do seeing how you don't know me very much. I actually think I know that place, it's near bathurst and bloor, right? I live literally two minutes away if that's the place I'm thinking of. Very cool, I meant to apply there anyways. So, I attached my resume. Thanks for the heads up! :)
I know there are a few places on bathurst a bit past harbord for rent, check them out. I love this area, my place is a one bedroom, high ceilings, pretty nice, $800 a month. It still needs a bit of work though. I don't know if that's inexpensive, I think it's a bit on the expensive side, but it was the best place I could find.
I'm from Sudbury Ontario... pretty small too. Not too small but small enough where I made great friends, worked at amazing places... it was just so friendly. I did not ride a tractor though, I don't think I'm cut out for farm life. Mind you homemade farm food is yummy.
Let me know, I'm actually free this evening, and tuesday. I promised I'd see a a movie with my friend, so whatever day you pick I'll go to the film with her the other day. And I like food, food is good. Ha ha. Girls must hate me, I eat pretty badly sometimes but I just don't... I don't know. You'll see when you hang out with me I guess, but I should try my best to be all cute and ladylike.

Well, to say the least, you impressed me. I didn't know what to expect, and I wasn't let down. You are an attractive, easy going, intelligent lady. Beautiful. I really enjoyed last night and hope that maybe this weekend some night, if you would like to, we could check out Caribanna, or go play pool, Sunday night is Rock night at Ciao Edies on College. Perhaps you have better ideas or other plans, let me know.
I'm gonna go watch the Maple Leafs(blue jay farm team) play at christie pits tonight, not a ball fan, but it is a good opportunity to relax.

Quoting Mary-Anne Omellette : Yeah, I actually really had a fun time. I was paranoid with the whole craigslist thing, I was scared of meeting some icky creep-o with torsos in his freezer... the stereotypical male who haunts many singles forums and message boards. I'm not even 100% sure about the torso thing yet, maybe you prefer to just collect fingers, more manageable... more discreet...
Anyhow, thanks, compliments make me blush. And thanks for not getting all wierded out when my ex called. He does that, and must be discouraged. Maybe one day when I'm drunk I'll tell you why he has no chance with me now... but what's the point of blah blah drama? Just do NOT be a drama queen. Ever. Sane, confident, stable girls hate it.
Sure, this weekend sounds good. Let me know and we can figure something out together, Carribana sounds neat, I've never been. I'm a terrible pool player and I cheat by the way... but it's fun too.
Oh, and FYI I was exhausted at class this morning and needed an extra two expresso shots in my frappe, but it was very worth it.

Hope the interview went well, sorry for getting Tom Petty stuck in your head, it could of been worse... The Limbo Song is hidden somewhere in my Ipod.
While you were there today one fellow asked me where a good place to buy furniture in Toronto. I told him IKEA, and how to get there, I hope he wasn't offended.
To allay your fears over possible drama queening, I am not a fan myself. I tend to be pretty down to earth in situations. I prefer handling situations rationally, being honest to both the situation and my limitations. As for the torso in my freezer, doesn't everyone have a torso in the freezer.
As for pool, I'm not good either, thank god for the horse shoe I keep hidden in my own torso.
It came to my attention that we will be complete sore thumbs at Caribana, with the hip hop and all, but If you want we can meet at Bathurst station around 7 on Saturday, take the trolley down to union, check the fest out. If it isn't cool, SummerWorks is on. I checked it out and there are a few shows that evening that may prove credible. One is a comedy called Go forth and Multiply at 9:30 (http://www.summerworks.ca/play_2006_- _go%20forth%20and%20multiply.php) and another, a Stalinist Russia love story called The Russian Story at 11 (http://www.summerworks.ca/play_2006_-_the%20russian%20play.php).
Or, perhaps you already have plans. We'll figure something out.
Ike
---------------------------------------------
Quoting Mary-Anne Omellette :
It's okay, there are way worse things to get stuck in your head than Tom Petty. I mean, come on, space cowboy is always great. I'm a big fan of the Pina Colada song myself, but shh, don't tell. So, that was officially the worst interview ever. It felt like such a waste of time on my end, the guy manager or whoever was not at all interested in asking me any questions, spent a whole of two minutes with me, which was rude considering how long he spent with the others. I was tempted to just say thanks, and take off three minutes into meeting him. But hey, first impressions can be wrong. Either way, thanks for the heads up. I have a few more interviews this week with people who are actually interested in hiring and or talking to me, so it's all good. :)
As for furniture, there are great places on King West, depending on how much you want to spend. Me being a student and all... but still liking stylish-looking stuff... Ikea is a pretty safe bet. Oooo or Idomo! That guy in the commercials has a crazy ZZ top beard.
I prefer to keep other things in my freezer... like food. A Torso wouldn't even fit... unless it was a baby torso... or a midget torso but that's even pushing it.
So far as Saturday is concerned I'm pretty flexible. I mean it's toronto, I'm sure we'll find a million things to do. I still have two free passes to the Art Gallery for the Andy Warhol exhibit that expire the sixth... mmm... soon? Tomorrow? Sunday? What else... this Distillery is always cool, Balzac's coffee house and amazing art galleries there to walk in and out of... I think there's a Chinese lantern festival going on now at the Ex... Pool places up Bloor at the Hoseshoe on Queen... Carribana... up to you really.
Well, I better go get more cat food and things of that nature. This thing looks anorexic I need to fatten in up. Really, you can feel bones and ribs whenever you pick it up.... it's creepy.
Let me know what you want to do tomorrow.

Insomnia...meh,, I never had a interview there so I don't know what it's like, besides I work there, I didn't go on craigslist to meet someone I work with, what was I thinking. Hope you had good luck at other places, not that you need it. And on to something else...
Scored my apartment, accepted and official today I am the Grand prize winner of a beautiful, basement, bachelor, apartment lease for one year. This furnished suite comes with great amenities such as a microwave and bar fridge, a sofa bed and a panoramic river view. 175 square feet to call my own. Don't move in till the end of the month, but now I am certain I have a place to live at the end of the month.
Then I had a photo shoot with this dude named Steve Carty, got to go into a rich man store on king, some fancy schmancy place... so I got to take their overpriced, uncomfortable clothes, model them, and wait... will I ever make money. I mean it is fun working for a guy who has shot tons of celebrities and has wicked side projects www.stevecarty.com and wearing a green shirt like the one in here http://stevecarty.com/cartyclients/Ike-web/ and knowing that it costs the $230 I would never spend on a lime green shirt. but the photographer was magnificent. check out 4406 and tell me it is not wonderful image trickery, or rather agree with me...your choice.
I do work tomorrow till after 4, hope I won't be much longer then that, I'll give you a ring when I'm done. If that is (see below) an invite to the Warhol exhibit I will gladly accept. I searched the website, but I think the questionnaire for free tickets ended, for there is no information pertaining to it on the website. I will call you at 4:30 and we can figure things out.
Till tomorrow, good dreams and soft hangovers,

Sorry for keeping you up so late... I hope you're not too tired. I just like the entire process of getting to know you, you're interesting. And fun. (Among other things...)
If you would like to do anything next week... Yuk Yuk's is $2 for a comedy show Tuesday and it's pretty good, and we can get coffee before or after. Or I can get coffee, you can get hot chocolate : ) I think it starts at sevenish. Monday to friday I have classes at 8 am, so I don't stay out too late... and, if you want this saturday, well, as of yet I don't have a prom date. And, if you were free and wanted to go with me, it would save me the hassle of going with someone else... I think tickets are only $5. It's at Lee's Palace, quite close to us. Let me know, I can pick us both up tickets.
I'm going to have one of my famously casual and private lunches by myself right now. Talk to you soon.
Mary-Anne
------------------------------------------------------- I got a very quiet and short message on my mahine... I'm pretty sure it was from you. :) I'm home now... in case you do call again although it's late, and I want you to know I have no other plans in the world tomorrow except you.
I'm glad I'm going with you... it's the best decision I've made in a long time. And I promise to try to look my most beautiful.

Hmmmm will you get this before 4? Probably not. I should have replied last night but I was tired... among other things. I went on that Pirate streetcar party, and then there was a party/rave thing under the bridge near Fort York. Fun stuff. I had a plastic sword.
I hate one year leases, it's forced commitment. I have one too though... so I'm stuck. Furnished? Saves you an Ikea trip I guess. Is in in this area, or no? I remember you telling me about an apartment you saw before, was it the same one? I guess congratulations are in order.
Those pictures are pretty nice. The green shirt is scary, but you manage to pull it off. But my god... who would pay that much for it??? *shudder*
Oh, there was a point to this. Yeah, the AGO thing. I guess I should have clarified that I have two free passes, one of which I plan to use, and one for an unspecified second person to use. And you are invited to cordially be an unspecified second person if you'd like.
I guess you'll call me sooner or later and we can figure out plans and that.

Thank God for coffee (with 2cream 8sugar). I was dead when I got into work, but it was completely worth it, I really enjoy your company and style. I had a beautiful dream last night, but I think I was awake.
Tuesday sounds like a good idea, two dollars to heckle is hard to beat, and hot chocolate before...mmm.... I better bring marshmallows. I have Tuesday to Thursday off this week so that should be no problem. As for the prom, If you will have me, it would be my honour to escort you. Would you like to go out for dinner before hand, I know a really sweet rooftop patio. We can plan more of that on Tuesday.

8? That's a lot of sugar in a coffee... was it the caffeine of sugar buzz that got you going? I'm so sorry I kept you up that late, how selfish of me. Well, that's a lie. I'm not all that sorry. I got to enjoy your company... and your goodbye, and afterwards I got to have a nice, long, amazing sleep. Lucky, unemployed me!
With lines like that; "I had a beautiful dream last night, but I think I was awake" combined with your charm and ability to speak German, I think I'm in for trouble. I'll need to keep my eye on you, Mystery? Lie?
Meeting people over the internet has such a negative stigma, I was really mostly curious about how it all works. I did not expect to meet someone as fun as you, I met mostly obnoxious people who were so far from what I look for in a guy, it was horrible. You know... those dates that never end so you have to "go to the bathroom" and run away? I had two of those, and a couple others that I just called it a very early night and went home. One was after an hour. ha I guess guys can't do that as well... or can they? I don't know, I've never gotten "the ditch".
Tuesday should be great, I love Humber nights at Yuk Yuk's, as long as my ex isn't performing. It would be kind of cruel to rub a date in his face, even though that isn't what I'd be doing... I just hate making people uncomfortable. He's already upset I want to go to the fake prom thing with you, he originally asked me to go.
I have my fingers crossed that he's not on, because I like going, so he'll let me know tonight or tomorrow if he's on or not. Either way, I'm sure we'll find something to do. Maybe hook you up to a coffee IV if you're still tired. And patios are fun, ever been to the green room? I know some pretty neat places too. If we're in the Queen W area we can always go to cafe crepe before or after Yuk Yuk's.
I have a bit of running around to do, cleaning and all that fun stuff... hate it. You're lucky to have a smal space, less to clean!

Yes, I am trouble, please keep your eyes on me.
I haven't moved into my micro chasm yet so I'm still living in my dirty mansion. Instead of cleaning everyones messes, I will leave it for them. Unfortunately this means you will never get to see my current residence. It is so filthy I'm ashamed.
I got to MC a poetry reading yesterday up on St. Clair. a freind of mine from school runs it and when I got up there he asked if I would, so I said, "sure." It wasn't a dream gig, but it did allow me to be introduced to other poets and share some of my work.
Tomorrow morning I have a shoot for Burberry, a paid gig I do believe. Hello free money, daddy needs a new pair of shoes. (it's true, i really need a new pair of shoes). Ive been working on my new look, it's kind of smirkish, I call it, "I can't believe your paying me for my image" It is hard to master because I have to stifle my laughter behind it.
Green Room, good call, that place is sweet. Or crepes sound good. We can figure it out tomorrow. Thanks for the microwave recipe guide by the way, no offence to the microwave Association, but hopefully I don't have to live of nuked food for long. My birthday is in October and I'll ask for hot plates or a crock pot from my folks; mmmm...crockpot beef and taters with gravy.
I'll call later this evening or already have

p.s. As for ditching girls on dates, guys can do it just as well. Usually it is less ducking out the back and more direct expression of distaste for the situation, sort of a "no hard feelings, but no". If that doesn't work, "No, Fuck off," comes into play. Cold, most definitely, but honest.

I'm still pretty sore, I'm such a suck when I'm sick, all I do is drink ginger ale, wallow in self pity, and sleep. I have class tomorrow, lucky me... so I hope I can sleep well.
I liked seeing you, it was such a nice surprise, and you are a sweetheart. And thanks for not telling me I looked like death warmed over even though, let's face it, I did/do right now.
I can't wait to see you this weekend.

Hey cutie, thanks for the jello. I had some before I fell asleep last night and read a bit of the war of the worlds. It's really well written, but now it's hard not to imagine Tom Cruise (crazy bastard) in it when I picture the narrator... movies really can ruin good books... or at least ruin the imagination.

Hey Doll,
Missing a second day of classes. It half makes me feel guilty... more than half. I have no idea why because if I strain myself I get sicker... and end up missing more days. I'm just tired of it, and no matter how many compliments, I can't wait to feel better and be a picture of health.
I hope I get the job too, partially for something to do, and partially due to my spending habits. I tend to medicate myself with shopping, and boy, does this girl like her medication.
I'm surprised over how much of a mess I can make in a span of a few days. A pile of dishes and a river of laundry later... I'll have to tackle that today. Just wait until you get to experience laundry mat subculture... But that is if I can drag myself out of the bathtub for more than three hours at a time.

I figure I am out of work by 5:30 tomorrow, then I must run a small errand, and can pick you up at 7 (Sorry, no limo, but I can carry you the whole way). Can't wait to see your dress, though your quite lovely anything you wear (yes, even glasses). I know a place that sells perogie fries, or heaven hoping you have something better in mind. Thought about goldfish, but it has gold right in the name, kilgores is for tea grannies, paupers is sorta like kelseys, Mels is breakfasty, Green room, maybe? The perogie fries are at the tap/las iguanas, It's pretty dive, but in that same right, it's pretty. Or maybe sushi? Markham Street has some good finds and so does harbord. Ever been to hemingways?, by the time I stop thinking of options It will be time for work. I have to get to bed to look dashing for my hot date(you) tomorrow.
I better stop flirting, It is way to cheesy typed in front of my eyes like this, like a hug on the phone or a virtual kiss. we should write letters.

Here's hoping you won't hate me! I'm going to give you a call later, but I'm going to have to cancel our movie date. I just have a ton of stuff around my apartment that have to get done before my sister gets down tomorrow, and there is actually more I need to study for my test, also tomorrow, than I originally thought.
But, since I miss you a lot, here is what I propose. Tomorrow, when you are done work and tired and hungry, we should take my sister (whose name is Margret by the way, so I can stop calling her "my sister") to the green room. We can all sit, eat, talk... it will be a lot of fun. OR we can go to Tortilla flats on Queen. I love that place. Very good guacamole.
So, let me know, call me or I will call you... again, please don't be mad. There is just no way I can study with you here, the sexy distraction that you tend to be. : )

Hi! I feel like I haven't seen you in ages, even though I saw you yesterday... but here I am, cleaning my apartment and doing homework. I'll probably step out later to lug laundry to the laundrymat... exciting, I know. Just wait until you live all by yourself, its worse, because when things get messy you have no one to blame. Add two pets to the equation... I just can't let it get that far! ha ha And wow those steps outside are a losing battle... I'll have to come up with some solution.
So I was thinking maybe thursday you would like to come over, and we can watch a movie or something. I have class friday and can't have that late a night, but let me know. I'll make popcorn! I know you are just ITCHING to watch Saw and see what all the buzz is about. My little sister is coming down this weekend, and if you have any time off, we should all go to the green room together. Let me know what you think.

I actually liked the movie, but only as one of those "unplug your brain" movies, because there was just so so much wrong with it that if you think about it too much... well, you get a migraine. As for the last Samurai, it was long.... it wasn't by far the worst TC movie EVER though. There are worse... like, ummm.... Top Gun? Have you ever seen Hostel? Saw?
I'm not even sure how long me e-mails take to get to you. It is now 5:51 Saturday. ha ha Maybe you will get this sunday night after having a TERRIBLE time with me. If that's even possible.
I like the green room, it's close to me... close to you... close to Lee's... and yes, very pretty.
I can't wait to see you. I'm a terrible dancer, I must warn you, I'm going to step on your feet.
I miss you...

Congrats on the job. Hope your hissy fitting, exacerbated professor who has not yet come to the realization that you can only punish the guilty party. But he and the dean must of laughed together after the decision to through this load down as punishment for the poor idiots treason to the masters skill of teaching. "Those who can do, those who can't teach", those who go through life repeating this homage never learn much in the end. Your teachers rebuttal to his indignation is strong, past the point of repugnancy. I find it exorbitant to constrain a whole class of individuals, whose lifes are no longer the absent minded childhood of mothers cooking and Christmas. Their Lives could hang in the balance of paychecks, cleverly allotted hours and money to allow a basic standard of living while mommy is at school. Lives hang in the very brink of this man... a bit dramatic, perhaps. Realistically every one will deal with it, for better or worse. If the jackass gets Less then you on the exam tomorrow, I figure it is fair time you lay a monologue on the little shit. Again, dramatic, but it will put you on the professors good side forever. hhmmm. something along these lines maybe:
Mary-anne: Look at me
That Jerk: Huhh
Mary-Anne: Shut up(spoken quickly), look at this, not everyone can be as smart as me, but no one has the right to be ignorant of other people as you. To call this mans class a joke is to belittle the faith that the less fortunate have in the teachers ability to make them efficient law clerks, or Paralegals. To push the teacher into having to deliver more work, was an act of malice against other peoples lives, maybe your spare time you spend playing nintendo and eating mothers home cooked food, maybe you want to be busier to avoid something of a qualm in your relationships.(pause)"breathe."1".."2" Shut up (spoken quickly)I don't want to jump to conclusions on your character, but if you do not learn compassion, it will probaly land you a concussion. Shut up(again sharp and quick)This is not a threat, this is a warning for your personal betterment, merely a quote I gleaned off an email from a very sad man who didn't get to eat pocorn and watch a movie with me last night.
------------------------------------------------------------------ Okay, well it needs a little work, but I figure the character will be no problem. Public humiliation counts for alot, the pen is truly a mightier sword in school. The teacher does his job as he is told and though his deliverance was rude to the class, he still will accomplish the ends of dismantling the coward ass in the back of the class. If you push things forward to the other side and are first to dismantle this time bomb from his illusionary glory, instead of blaming the effect, effectively blaming the cause, as seems to be the real quo. A public verbal incision, could only lend to earning the respect of your classmates, I mean certainly this prepackaged monologue will not suffice in real time.
But this is the defense of the teachers case, and all evidence is prevelent, that this may make you smile.
Call you tomorrow, or can stop down with a book and a bar of soap at 10 tonight.

Thanks for calling last night. It was nice talking to you before bed. If you are going to go get your blood tested, The place I went, which was quick and convenient was Downtown Doctors. They are located right beside Tim Hortons at Bloor and Spadina, room 205. They are confidential, clean, and the longest wait I have ever incurred was half an hour. They are open Mon- Fri untill 6pm and are free, all you need is a health card and I.D.. Results are returned within 2 weeks, however HIV takes three months to develop to the point it can be discovered, but I wouldn't worry to much on that one, as you said, the demographic is all wrong.

Mary, here is a copy of the letter which i have sent to ajay this evening, I know I may be over my bounds, but I do not care. I have been passive much to long. It was due time it was said.
STOP STALKING YOUR EX GIRLFREIND
I said it, Ex. You fucked it up, you fucked around. so please, I ask this politely with the utmost sincerity, fuck off. If you loved her you wouldn't of pulled all this shit on her. All you love is yourself and your own interests. Do your blonde or whoever was (is) on the side; but step off her. I ask this kindly as one gentleman to you. She is a beautiful soul, and that you would continuously trample, calling at 2AM to ramble about what a loser you are, only shows you lack dignity and self respect. She deserves better then you, and you have proved this through your actions. I write this of my own accord, as someone who cares for her and is tired of hearing your name. If you have problems, go see a counselor. Do not place the weight of your emotional waste on her shoulders. It is unfair and disgusting. Again I hope this doesn't fall on deaf ears, if there is a next time, this will be much louder.
I am sorry I used information you made privy to me in confidence, however it is only fair that I as the third in this game should take a stand for what I believe in. I believe in you. This is not macho fronting, this is how I feel. Men become infatuated easily, I too have fallen prey many of times, but in you there is no game, what I feel for you is unbridled affection with subtle undertones of lust.
I have to wake in 4 hours, so good morning, i hope your day goes alright, and that Ajay heeds my plea.

No statement in the letter is false to the best of my knowledge, and at no time do I lay stake to you, or lay pretenses which could be obscured.

If you cannot forgive my error in judgment, for crossing lines that, in afterthought, I should of left in your hands, then I am sorry. Sorry that you will spend the rest of your life selling yourself short, on men who cannot respect your natural beauty. Sorry you will find boys who are nothing but pricks.

You are the best one I have never met, you spoke of the branch of your love and the drama of your anger and frustration, but these things I never experienced, I experienced your sickness, your broken heart, and always wished the clouds would fade, that we may sit in the sun some day. So I nuked a cloud. My aim was high, but it lacked good tactic. Now this mushroom cloud. So I thought about the weather, how times changes everything. Clouds move slowly across the sky, constantly shifting, building and disappaiting. No man has the might to control the weather, and trying to change what is natural, can only lead to discomfort. I love your style and mind, and that you understand, I love your rationality and comprehension. You are a dream I never woke up to. You were a dream that kept me awake.

Dear Mary-Anne,
I understand this completely, I have had abandonment issues for a very long time, from my parents, to my dog, to my best friends and well, almost everyone I have ever known i have felt to have left me at one time or another. Know that as long as I tread the earth, you have a place in my heart. Know that no matter how wretched you feel, no matter how lost or scared or scarred, I will not abandon you. Even if I cannot hold your hand and look in your eyes, be it success or failure which divide us, I will be here, in cyberspace or on the telephone. I don't want to leave either, it tears me that this opportunity which I accepted, would come at the same time I have finally found someone so in tune with myself. But the cost of dreams is high, and we both know this opportunity does not come everyday or to everyone. I consider myself fortunate, even though it pains me to show gratitude to this beast that would tear me from your arms and set my body to marketplace. The conflicts I have with the whole modeling situation could fill a battle field, or perhaps a courtroom. I could be on a path to glory, or setting myself up for an ultimate letdown, however, I cannot know unless I try.
I will remain true to myself through thick and thin, If I am honest with myself, I can trust myself; in respecting myself, I will be able to offer compassion to others. In loving myself, the love I offer will be pure. You have become a part of me, and I extend this branch to you, that though it may bend or sway, it will be alive.
I am glad you find what we have together is special, I was beginning to worry I was the only one who felt it.
Only trash can be thrown away, I am not shaken so easily. It doesn't make me a weaker man to accept you into my arms after. Mistakes are made without malicious intent, this is not the end, but certainly an interesting beginning.
Please text me R.S.V.P. before five, so I can buy the wine and cheese before the stores close. If you cannot make it tonight, please tell me when it would be convenient for you.
Yours, ike

Quoting Marry-Anne Omelette :
I am working tonight, I won't be able to make it. I think I work until 11pm. When are you leaving? Why do you still want to see me? It's going to be so hard when you go. Stop making me fall for you. And stop teasing me with things I can't have. The idea of being with you, of being your girlfriend, or falling asleep in your arms, is a dream. And when I wake up, you would be worlds away. Why is that not hard for you?

I don't know when, or if for certain I am leaving, this all is not cast in stone, merely speculation. I fell asleep just down the street from you last night as i have for the past month. Carpe Diem, save tonight. What is harder for me is that your so worried about the future you are afraid of now. I know the future may lead us to other places, but well I am here I want to share it with you, and if I do go away, then it is at your discretion whether you lay and long for me, or go out with whatever makes you happy. You can have me no matter where I lay my head.
The wine and cheese and strawberries are still fresh and I own the movie, so it can still be a magic evening, i want to share it with you. Without you the wine is just sour grapes and the cheese just moldy milk.
I still want to see you because you to me are the greatest feeling I know. I don't want to tease you with things you can't have, I want to offer you all I can.
Yours, Ike

I'm just on my way out... I work a double shift this evening so I doubt I will want to go out... I know you understand my fears and want to comfort me... we will talk about this, I promise, but for now I need to go.
Yours,
Mary-Anne
THE END (the wine to young, the strawberries sweet, the cheese refined)

------------- Day 2
I dont know it was your eyes like a prismatic view of your soul honesty like a bundle of heaven wrapped in smoke.
it gave me a feeling my heart cant forget. I look into your eyes, i get the ashes but i sneeze and there all gone, just you and me and nobody.
If the city weren't evil, and you weren’t to old, or married, i would like to maybe play by your fire and quench your every desire.
in my arms i find you your eyes around me eye stare in glut And thank the lord you finally found me and thank him more your not a slut.
Kids a plenty one a house thats ours to call a home a long happy marriage that ends when i i dont know finally succumb to lung cancer. make sure you raise her to be nice like you.
I dont know it was your eyes. kiss me again.
-------------------------------------------- Day 3
I am the man that spits on your garbage.
I lay slugs on your grave and they eat through the dying petals of your daffodils and marigolds one by one.
I lay slugs on your grave 5ive shots i didn't need and a sixth empty cartridge still hot i lay it on your face and it burns through your skin a scar the undertaker can't erase.
I lay slugs on your grave, after they are thick and juicy of devouring the offerings beauty i take them and fry them in a pan there in the cemetery with a little coalman stove, cook them black and eat them with swigs of absinth between mouthfuls cursing at your granite stone and the cold night all the same.
I am the man who spits on your garbage.
----------------------------------
Day 4
I looked into her cleavage when her eyes had so much wonder 21st century Neanderthal I'm lonely no wonder.
I could be sweet and speak sweet but honestly I'm so sickly sweet I'm rotten and no one wants just another grape in there chardonnay.
This is the price a man must pay for honesty in this modest age of modern love, to be or not to be all in the lens of what the people see.
If I had invented fire or accomplished anything with a merit of paper with a sign i was there, then i would stand on two feet like a man an oyster world full of pearls with mysteries to delve into and unfurl.
Mysteries like her eyes how they surprise me till I surmise to a state of unworthy because the eyes are unearthly and i feel unhealthy because the only wealth I see in me is in my eyes which to no suprise Merits no rise to the purveyors or the casual passerbys.
because in eyes are lies untold waiting for the foul breath to unfold the unfortunate truth I am a boy and this is my youth.
------------------------------------------ day 5
I said you were pretty your friend said you were beautiful I looked into your eyes to my surprise i could see it all.
There is a sensuous self You cant dissolve in your time and place Even a thousand failures the blood cant erase and im torn and wasted all these words are pasted to the top of my dry mouth
A repulsive distaste but none can take your place and for all the mistakes and heartaches who must i answer but me my own master well hearts left behind left behind but times that will everlast in my mind.
lemon rind i have to go to bed work tommora, no sorra
------------------------------------
Day 6 In the morning fog I found you on a silent street The street lights cast shadows across your eyes.
Your high cheek bones and your pursed lips I say something, you smile, My heart melts A tranquility runs through my veins incomparable. Like no drug or alcohol I am filled with such euphoria standing there with you in the silent fog and street lights.
I pull you close and press my mouth into yours. your warm nose presses soft against mine
your lips are soft wet with your sweet taste I die and am reborn In our mutual affection
I look in your eyes I see the reflection of street lights I see the sun rises and sets of a life time. Entranced.
And like the wind you wisp away
silently.
----
Day 7
There is something dead in my magic A lacking aspect I need a lover To romance.
Life is hard, not tragic So much prospect I need another to feel complete.
As it turns out we burn out continuing to churn out a low moan.
I need a kiss and a massage familiar lips familiar hands to hold.
Something dead in my charm As if I can't care I need a hope A slow dance.
To try would surely do me no harm Alive to share I must learn to cope If I'm to compete.
As it turns out we burn out Throw another log on because i'm not gone coming back strong ready for a road ahead one day I'll ditch the shoes of lead Meet her Treat her Marry Her Bury her.
I'm young Hung up by the wrists the blood from my fingers drains till I forget what pain is And happiness but a dream at the end of the endurance in all hopes that my perseverance will lead me to a successful place in life.
----------------------------
Day 8
The mirror is brutally honest It holds nothing inside cracked or broken each fragment A reflection of its complete reality.
What it shows you runs backwards before your mind. Your eyes perceive depth. What it shows is an image reversed Not a Picture divine.
It is a painted glass. But we look at it as if it were some magic sayer It tells you all you want to hear. Just by your front layer Your feelings are decided.
Glass and its properties The outside world The inside world from the needle vile to the computer tube.
Broken glass on the cold morning sidewalk I hear it crush under my shoes and I smile A break in at the house of mirrors To look in the window is to see your world broken Your fragmented self in horror of the sharded mess serrated edges and smooth reflections fight for your attention
And I love your eyes Because I saw a piece of me I would like to see again and again to know your mind brew And know you in more then 2-D
Kiss me again please.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Day 9
Some where in the pool of my mind I drowned an awful death and nothing but this shell I am was left behind
Some how I've left myself behind tortured my taste eating only the rind And I scorn a face I can't leave behind
so jaded without age so careless I leave it all behind.
Maybe some sin would give me second wind but the pain is never worth the pleasure so to romance and day dream ideology I stay tethered
The truth is that I know the pleasure is worth its pain I see the sleazy hollow men prove it again and again I am young and lustful but to full of spite the day is breaking and I'm still saying goodnight
I need to wake up and shake of this trite confusion Obviously and obtuse illusion succeeding me Holding me against my will and to my will in the same breath i am omnipotent and insignificant and a Orator that mumbles
A comedian without punchlines a writer without a point words strung listless as my body solid mass taped to a chair and all these words are weightless and hold no gravity but depraved of my right to rave would and does leave me with a gap in my sanity
I sing loud and hope no one understands me and yet and yet
like always the pain of being lonely drives me to want you only whether your eyes or your thighs your mind or your carnal treasures I don't know whether I want to sit or be sadistic and logistically I'm over thinking everything until I am at a lack of anything.
So many elements at hand the cold crosses the land and i am looking for someone to hold my hand
Foncusion
I want to time it and make it perfect but without a goal there is no time
I feel like a lime out of place in a discriminate land accepted but rejected because i want to be maybe it is just me there are better fruit at the top of the tree but I've been hanging from the bottom branches listlessly Falling in love with every eye that bats a lash at me
I need to get a back bone and get my life going Worry about the work now then worry about my greedy groin (you'd be greedy to if you were so underfed)
Get my shit together, put it in a box and burn it all Socialize and mesmerize Without a past to recall
like a plane crashing the wind of going down makes my engine stall as the ground comes closer we are all so small.
And I never write they never call
Things will only work out if i work nothing is free and easy and you have to take the cake if you want just desserts.
------------------------
Day 10
sitting in a comfortable chair i dream of stealing gasmasks at the riot
sitting down far from square lounging in the chair I dream i saw you there
You were choking on the fumes Your eyes were red and full of fear I killed the man beside me I smashed his spine Stole his mask for you for you for you
You smiled with the tears swollen in your eyes I knew then you were mine
So i pressed through the crowd with you held to my breast past the broken past the police past the guards past the secret guards I threw your bullet riddled corpse to the floor at his feet I lifted my hands in a gun shape I put my handgun to his head i whispered softly in his ear "bang, your dead."
Hear in my chair without a care It was all my plan
I knew then that you believed
A warrior for a cause not just amplitude of the ruckus
you would be my chain my bulldozer my own two feet
A tool for use
As i lay you at his feet With your dying breath you speak one word "Victoria"
the name of your unborn babe.
the sacrifice of revolution is human lives.
How much would you sacrifice to change what you believe is not right Are you noise or action.
-------------------------------------
Day 11
Day 11 To declare bankruptcy I Do not sit or stand I navigate through the lands with my heart on my sleeve and the blood on my hands.
Day 11 do red roses still hang in your window pain.
Day 11 I don't know what to say Will we see us as strangers someday I didn't want it but it has me sitting so far away.
Day 11 I'm sorry for what I did and couldn't say. My love for you, misplaced in someone new. how many Times can I apologize
Day 11 let me count the ways
--------------------------------------------------------
day 12 I passed the buck, I past it over, its in your hands the change turns over.
A ball in your court; to court or not to court A romanticist . with pleasures innumerable, A smile laughing at future possibilities, With a magnum tube of responsibilities.
I need to settle down To settle down But when your around And I resound In the hypnotic psycronsis
Your future: Secure and vulnerable.
Your past: Secure and vulnerable.
Your Present: Is what you present
I smile at my glass because I'm pleased to be In your pleasant company And I think your a beautiful kind of funny.
-------------------------------------------
Day 13
Save my soul take full control lay of the brakes press the throttle lets go go Your in control.
push and shove is this the modern love where's give and take When did we forsake these beautiful values
why do we always want more.
For sure there is no cure for this absurd greed the more we touch the less we need.
It's always This way him and her Such and such more and more and more and more surely no way to run a good society.
Change my engine make me run touch the throttle with your thumb tear me through gullies and over. Feel the wind on your skin as we float skin to skin.
It will always be this way such and such more and more but your the girl I adore I could say it in words but my heart says so much more.
Play me at your pace Everyone wins when there is nothing to lose. Your in control I passed the buck I passed the buck I passed the buck.
-------------------------------

Day 15
The days are bright and filled with pain. - Jim Morrison The Doors crystal ship he was talking about heroin for certain but drugs although distorting reality, can't really change it.
I want a heroin some sweet girl to sweep me off my feet before i become embittered with the ordeal swear my self into the breast of Abstinence
I want a heroin one that i can kiss deep and long and have her cry for more Someone to love and adore I have a romantic heart in a town that doesn't care anymore.
I want a heroin to pull so close our hearts beat in time To miss and kiss to trust and confide to be truthful and honest with
I want a heroin to love be loved to romance to slow dance to meals and trying to buy clothes
I want a heroin to hold to love her brave soul Her courage and confidence
I sit there Eeyore Tired, but in my head jangles caffeine vibrations I think all I could be If I wasn't me What I would say Just before i crushed my lips softly against yours
I want you heroin Just shut me up and kiss me What I am saying is not important Don't read this part please come over hear and press your lips to mine please my heroin save me I'm so hungry.
