Is a snail called a snail with out a shell?
you and your friend
hiding in that shell.
hiding is the worst you can do
so come out in the open
whats the worst that could happen?
out of that shell of yours
two snails cant have one shell.
or can it?

i am not entertained.
to quiet.
to dark.
im back to where I started.
I find her back in my arms.
I find her long cold fingers embrace me
Caress my brain
Slowly in a body without a mind
restraining all these bones
now she has to go where ever i go.
kept in a quiet little box.
in the corner of 213
Maybe the longer she stays
the more entertaining itll be
dont say you have nothing to do with it.
its all about you.
all for you
and its creeping out of the closet
and grabbing me by the heels.
maybe i should let her drag me
demoted
dont say you dint see it coming
snake in front of your face
never interested
always looking the other way
ooohhhhh i feel that nail run across my spine

always out of place
left behind the race

You turn green.
Then you turn red.
Now you are blue.
How cold are you?

The look
The laugh
A chuckle
A smirk.

Appear disappear.
In and out.
Provoke and surrender
Remember and forget.

Wood Turns Me On.

Wood turns me on.
not the lewd definition of wood mind you.
Wood. Meaning Mahogany the tree.
My Client and I visited her stockpile of Mahogany wood from the tree she had to get cut down
from the lot where her house is going to be built.
and i am designing the furniture for the house that is to be built.
Im super excited! just imagine the possibilities of furniture from an entire tree.
Although im sad for the tree cut down. it was necessary death because its roots already
took over the driveway and part of the garage, lifting the pavement.
thats why it is my responsibility to give justice to its death.

"May your soul rest in peace dear Mahogany Tree."

Ironing

2009-11-13T09:21:00.000-08:00

Today, i felt better than the ordinary day.
I still feel sad most of the time.
That separation anxiety that my boy is away all the time, but i am coping.
i know I'm coping because today, i IRONED my shirt.
Which I almost never do.
i have new Client and I feel New.
Like ive been given a second chance to life.
to the hopeless out there, who ever you are.
this is advice from someone who just had her first step from the bottom.
if your down there and the burden you feel is at its heaviest,
LET GO.
you'll see that theres no where else to go but up.

Hi My Name is MEI
I am an ADDICT.
My DRUG is INK and PAPER.
The few things that make me feel HUMAN.

I LOVE

BLACK on WHITE.
And how water will turn ink to GRAY.

How ONE COLOR can SAY EVERYTHING and NOTHING

How a BRUSH can DRY your TEARS
and WET your EYES.

I LOVE INK.

And ill be a JUNKIE for a long while.

join me?
