Okay, simply because I can't wait for the 10th anniversary of "A Night Without Armor" to ask this...what do you think of Jewel-as-Poet? Is her stuff not that bad? Was it unfairly ripped apart when it came out? Does it rival (or better) Keats, Whitman, Cummings, Sexton?

"While leaving the airport, a gypsy woman stole my luggage. She wore a rice paper mask over her eyes. A mole showed neatly on her chin, hairless. She laughed while sausages fell from her pockets in heavy shivers. I hope she misses them sorely."

― Surmounter, Tuesday, 17 June 2008 15:22 (seventeen years ago)

Insecurity
you don't call I check again I become uneasy-- is this a frame? Suddenly I'm not so sure I check my sources each conversation becomes a crumb how easily I'm led how stupid I've been to believe you could be loving me you who can not be seduced by anything other than the temperance of need each one facilitating the next and suddenly I see my place the phone rings you say hello but I don't believe you

― Just got offed, Tuesday, 17 June 2008 16:04 (seventeen years ago)
haha no really i'll be OK. i mean i certainly don't find it wonderful and crafty. but i like it in a way. in the same way i like other things that are not very good maybe.
