For many men value appearances more than reality - thus they violate what's right;

But a good man discerns true character -

He's not fooled by eyes feigning loyalty,

Favoring him with watered-down respect.

Way down by the stream

How sweet it will seem

Once more just to dream in

The moonlight

Incident on 59th Street

If people cannot write well,

they cannot think well,

and if they cannot think well,

others will do their thinking for them.

365 9/24

Maybe that's enlightenment enough: to know there is no final resting place of the mind;

no moment of smug clarity.  Perhaps wisdom... is realizing how small I am,

and unwise, and how far I have yet to go.

Your thoughts aren't even coherent

365 9/22

When Happy Days was pitched to HBO

365 9/21

What did you think, brought the sun out today

Well it's you

365 9/20

Hello, lamppost, watcha knowing?

I've come to watch your flowers growing

Ain't cha got no rhymes for me?

365 9/19

I'm a-walkin' in the rain

Tears are fallin' and I feel the pain

Wishin' you were here by me

To end this misery

365 9/18

In other words you'd better make a funky decision

Cuz I'm a be a shaq knife and cut you with precision

365 9/17

Who could love you
like this? Who else could sew you into the stars?
Who better knows your gravity and goes
otherwise, to catastrophe?

9/16

No to all those

365 9/15

Folded the newspaper and silenced the radio

Those creatures jumped the barricades

And have headed for the sea

365 9/14

When bad things happen, I know you want to believe they are a joke,

but sometimes life is scary and dark.

That is why we must find the light.

365 9/13

Correct usage of the word 'literal.'

The effort to satisfy the silent majority by exorcising the demons of 1968

would eventually lead to the resurgence of an interventionist military policy,

the dismantling of what passed for a welfare state,

and the prosecution of a "war on drugs" that would imprison more Americans

than had ever been behind bars before.

365 9/11

You Are Loved

365 9/10

We must suffer them all again

365 9/9

Still your hands
And still your heart
For still your face comes shining through
And all the morning glows anew

Wojnarowicz died on July 22, 1992.

By the end of that year, 38,044 others in New York had died from 

AIDS-related complications

365 9/7

You ask me to enter, but then you make me crawl

And I can't be holding on to what you got

When all you got is hurt

365 9/6

If I make it through today

I'll know tomorrow not to leave my feelings out on display

I'll put the cobwebs back in place

365 9/5

Did you hear the cops finally busted Madame Marie

For tellin' fortunes better than they do

For me this boardwalk life's through, babe

365 9/4

And it's the damage that we do

And never know

It's the words that we don't say

That scare me so

365 9/3

Without your sweet kiss

My soul is lost, my friend

Tell me how do I begin again?

365 9/2

Condemn your political opponents as traitors,

incite mobs to violence,

and then deny responsibility.

365 9/1

May the spirit of Aretha Franklin pass through us

and her soul rest in peace 

within our hearts
