i need some quiet time
things have been crazygonuts around here, and are about to go crazygonutsier. CRAZYGONUTSIER.

on wednesday i'm off on tour with two minute warning for just over two weeks, before coming back, leaving immediately for disneyland paris, coming back, sleeping for three weeks, then going an tour again for another two weeks.

at some point before the end of the year i also intend to go live with my awesome new philanthropic web adventure TEXTURIZMONATOR-O, a free resource of hand-drawn background patterns, either totally original or based on awesome samplers of victorian wallpaper.

i am also contemplating the possibility of adding an auto-layout generator; for example, if you picked background texture 'darth vader', it would automatically give you suggested table, border and text colours, as well as giving you the code to drop into your myspace profile.

"ohmygollygosh!" i hear you shriek like a girly girl, "that's so utterly fucking generous of you! the people of earth do not deserve to suck the lumpy pus from your infected wounds!". while this is true, i feel that my hand has been somewhat forced; i'm so utterly sick to the back fucking teeth of people ripping off my code and graphics from my myspace profile, that i feel that giving the information away for free is the only way to stop it.

the site, should it ever evolve beyond the womb of my mind, will be a subdomain of indextwo, so i need some suggestions for a name. any and all harry potter or jedi references will be frowned upon. and by 'frowned', i obviously mean 'urinated'.

burning disaster: ten dead
i found this poem online a couple of days ago. you'll be amazed to learn that i found such a literary starburst on myspace, and have decided to annotate it with the thoughts and feelings that crossed my mind as i read through it; i also granted myself artistic license to break it up into stanzas so that it was vaguely tolerable, as opposed to eye-scratchingly horrific.

===============================================

hope u people like a peom i wrote to a freand while were talkin.
well this already looks like it's going to be a gem.

the nights that fall
,
i often fill an otherwise empty and useless carriage break with a comma.

i cant feel ur in my arms any more,
ive layed here cryin by ethe door,
ivee felt this way more this once
oh my, a poem half-written in text shorthand? how modern. and illiterate.

triple it and take it twice,
i take this razor and as i slice ,
tears fall like rain,
self centered in my pain,
the past ,
will stain my soul,
somebody got a goffic rhyming dictionary for christmas

i sleep and fall as i think of you ,
the time is the rastes thing i feel in side,
zuh? 'rastes'? racism? rastas?
i feel nothing any more no self respect no more pride,
ive been onfied like this once
oh, come on now. on fire? onanism?
more then twice i take this blade and
i tripple every slice, ive takin this time ,
for the love of god. you spelt 'triple' correctly once. why do you have to fuck it up now?
to sppek to you , you gave me
soemthing so much more,

at this point i think our poetic emo-goth had one shandy too many, and it tipped him over the edge. the edge of spelling.

ive seen sin the the eyes of the bilnd,
and smelt the sin that reakcs from ur heartlless body,
as i feel the heat breaths hot,
time goes bey as the heart of
mines rotts were i once felt this
more then was and trippled this
were we dontt feel any thing ,

these thigns we use to feel ,
the love layed in my hands,
like it would steal, yougave me soemthing ,,,
and took away more then you geivne me
, at the frist, is it ur point to tear others hearts
cuz of ur unkind thirst

dear extraordinarily bad poet, how can you type with boxing gloves on your hands?

===============================================

ironically enough, i've recently discovered a man considered by many to be the worst poet ever (discounting senor retardo, here); a scotsman called william mcgonagall, but cases for genetic screening like this one make mcgonagall seem like an unwitting genius.

i wouldn't normally consider myself to be a meanie... but here is captain spastic's myspace profile. gaze in awe at the people who actually like his 'poetry'! swoon in wonder at his daily raping of the english language! die in horror at his inability to ever use any kind of puntuation, save for his horrendous misusage of the comma!
