My house is too quiet, and my ears keep ringing, when I’m in total silence. There’s a strange pressure in them; I let out a little sound every once in a while to assure myself that I haven’t gone deaf.

Lives
I wonder who decided that cats have 9 lives. Did somebody see a cat rising from the ashes after taking a tumble off a tree branch? Did somebody witness a cat’s soul, hovering above it’s corpse—like a cloud of dust blown off an old photo album—get sucked back in to its furry, lifeless body?
That would make sense, seeing how cats always land on their feet. Maybe each time...

“[He] learned what he had already experienced many times without realizing it: that one can be in love with several people at the same time, feel the same sorrow with each, and not betray any of them. Alone in the midst of the crowd on the pier, he said to himself in a flash of anger: My heart has more rooms than a whorehouse.”
I know that I dream a lot most nights, but there is just something different about my dreams when I’m up at the lake. Something irreplaceable. It’s like the mountain breeze that sweeps over the water creeps into my head at night.
They’re more vivid, more crisp. And I can smell and taste in my dreams more intensely, when I’m up at the lake.
To be honest, I just miss...
I'm all about being all about things.

Going up to my Lake house for the week. Taking a week off from the Internet. More time to read, write, and relax. Maybe I’ll take a break from drinking too, who knows.
I need to find someone who I don’t hate hanging out with.
I need to find someone who…
ate too much Mexican food -_-

The Ariza To My Daza
I took two sleeping pills tonight.
They were small and round,
and they stuck in my throat
when I tried to swallow.
It took a few gulps of water
to get the lumps out,
but I can still feel them there;
like a phantom limb,
like I can still feel you,
on certain nights,
even thought it’s been years.
My head hurts,
and I run my fingers across
the ridge of bone that juts
out, just...

The Breeze (revised, again)
I sleep with my window
open most nights,
inviting the breeze.
Some nights it enters
like a forbidden lover,
climbing noisily up an old ladder;
some nights it can’t find its way
to my tattered screen.
I like to imagine the breeze
getting caught in branches,
or stuck in traffic
on its way to my bed.
It honks, and throws its hands
up: come on! Make the turn!
I like to think the...

So I promised to start writing more on my blog, and I thought: what better way than with a poem. Some of you, who have been following my blog and/or my writing long enough, may recognize the poem I’m about to post. It’s one of the only poems I’ve ever worked on relentlessly, revising it 4 times, and reposting it here, after each revision. This is the only piece I’ve ever...

A rant
I began this blog with the intention of using it to craft my writing, and expel the thoughts that plagued my mind constantly. Almost three years later, and if one was to scroll back through the annals, they’d be hard pressed to find much writing longer than a sentence or two, or the occasional paragraph-long rant. (I’ll be surprised if anyone reads past the word annals instead of...
