cold
silentbob Saw a falling star tonight
ran to catch it but I was too late

I stopped for a moment to consider the consequences

of chasing something that had no end

trying to contain something so wild

just to get a glimmer of it myself

to feel that cool

and I smelled some toxic resin

as my emotions fried

and my tear ducts released

I thought it was raining on my cheeks

and my hands were shaking

then I realized

if this is all I had to look forward to

in my cold and tired life

Oh what a sad and tremulous life that would be indeed

twiggie my legs and arms hurt from the cold of my house.
it won't heat up more than 64 degrees.
Of course it doesn't help sitting here and not moving around...but i have it fixed in my head that walking makes it worse.

chanaka i'd much rather be cold than be hurt
maybe that's why i like winter
harsh
frigid
barren
care to join me?

teran666 cold...lack of heat...cool logic...i remember a tyme in my life ruled by logic, not emotion...i felt none...i seem to remember being happier for my ignorance of emotion... 010204
...
plus i concur....
i long for the lacking of emotion i once had. when so cold that the frosty finger of the frigid fist of logic have no effect on your reasoning, being warm, or even lukewarm is merely detrimental to my progress. we have all been to that point of oblivion and i begin to wonder, Is this pure logic stage simply a phase of growth?

drat.

Cicero Look for me in the freezer,
With my fellows in frost.
Yes, we are cold -
And happy in our temperature.
But doesn't fudge, hot,
Taste the best on ice cream?
Yes, it's warm out there,
On the counter with the
Oranges in the dish.
But out there you're
More likely to be eaten.

kerry morning cold

i tell jackie about everything every morning
during my shower i stand there with the water making my skin red and raw but still never hot enough, collecting things to tell her
7 AM and i am grooving to midtown and maybe even the hives because they make me feel awake
those are my morning bands
i am putting on clothes taking them off again i barely make it in time

i tell her about this vision i have of when we go to victoria and british columbia, if it ever happens
the same kind of image that plays over and over in your mind
i put my head out of the window and the wind is blowing in my hair, i am laughing as we cross the border
very cheesy and movie-esque but i cannot get it out of my head
i know i will take 10 rolls of film in my camera and i will be listening to the low rumble of the motorcycles shaking the ground
and i'll be alone so i'll take long walks and try to get lost in canada
but it will be good

james-"If only I could fit into your suitcase."
me-"I don't think you would fit."
james-"I know. I know I wouldn't fit."

Black Argonaut you're as cold as ice,
you're willing to sacrifice our love

you never take advice,
someday you'll pay the price i know

i've seen it before
it happens all the time
you're closing the door
you leave the world behind

you're digging for gold
you're going away
with fortunes and feelings
but someday you'll say

you're as cold as ice,
you're willing to sacrifice our love

you want paradise,
someday you'll pay the price i know

i've seen it before
it happens all the time
you're closing the door
you leave the world behind

you're digging for gold
you're going away
with fortunes and feelings
but someday you'll pay


you know that you are
cold as ice to me

you're as cold as ice
cold as ice i know
you're as cold as ice
cold as ice i know
you're as cold as ice
cold as ice i know

Foreigner - "Cold as Ice"

Zeb i feel cold
there is nothing in the world i hate more than smoking
words cannot describe how much i hate it, but nobody seems to care

i want to live forever and watch the world die, hopefully from lung cancer

long, painful, expensive, lung cacer that ends with crying gradchildren with cigarettes in their little mouths....

tender_square i layered properly for the elements while i walked for an hour outdoors. but now that i've been back inside for almost that long—still in the layers, wrapped in a blanket, sipping hot coffee—i can't shake the chill from my bones. 230227
