The blog will look like crap today aswell because I’ll be changing things I can’t leave half crappy like they were. (being that the side menu drops down to under the entries for some reason that can’t be fixed by switching themes, floating, or changing widths of things I am really frustrated! Any tips?)

when i was four years old
they tried to test my i.q.
they showed me a picture
of 3 oranges and a pear
they said,
which one is different?
it does not belong
they taught me different is wrong
but when i was 13 years old
i woke up one morning
thighs covered in blood
like a war
like a warning
that i live in a breakable takeable body
an ever increasingly valuable body
that a woman had come in the night to replace me
deface me
see,
my body is borrowed
yeah, i got it on loan
for the time in between my mom and some maggots
i don't need anyone to hold me
i can hold my own
i got highways for stretchmarks
see where i've grown
i sing sometimes
like my life is at stake
'cause you're only as loud
as the noises you make
i'm learning to laugh as hard
as i can listen
'cause silence
is violence
in women and poor people
if more people were screaming then i could relax
but a good brain ain't diddley
if you don't have the facts
we live in a breakable takeable world
an ever available possible world
and we can make music
like we can make do
genius is in a back beat
backseat to nothing if you're dancing
especially something stupid
like i.q.
for every lie i unlearn
i learn something new
i sing sometimes for the war that i fight
'cause every tool is a weapon -
if you hold it right

Major love for Nick Cave (as always). Here he is in swedish show Kobra, talking about the Death of Bunny Munro which was inspired by SCUM-manifesto by Valerie Solanas. <3 :) :) Haven’t been able to read it yet but I surely will. The interview starts about 15 minutes into the clip and is in english. My sweet friend Carl texted me just to tell me Nick was on tv.

I survived the talking! I even think I did fairly good. Don’t know if I learned any lesson but still… Going to try to be proud of myself for doing it.
Today is global climate action day. I really do hope you are doing something.

Here’s a beautiful video someone made for Misery is the River of the World

The higher that the monkey can climb
The more he shows his tail
Call no man happy ’til he dies
There’s no milk at the bottom of the pail

God builds a church
The devil builds a chapel
Like the thistles that are growing
‘Round the trunk of a tree
All the good in the world
You can put inside a thimble
And still have room for you and me

If there’s one thing you can say about mankind
There’s nothing kind about man
You can drive out nature with a pitch fork
But it always comes roaring back again

Misery’s the river of the world
Misery’s the river of the world
Misery’s the river of the world

The higher that the monkey can climb
The more he shows his tail
Call no man happy till he dies
There’s no milk at the bottom of the pail

God tempers all the winds for the new shorn lambs
The devil knows the bible like the back of his hand
All the good in the world
You can put inside a thimble
And still have room for you and me

If there’s one thing you can say about mankind
There’s nothing kind about man
You can drive out nature with a pitch fork
But it always comes roaring back again

For want of a bird
The sky was lost
For want of a nail
A shoe was lost
For want of a life
A knife was lost
For want of a toy
A child was lost

And misery’s the river of the world
Misery’s the river of the world
Everybody row, everybody row

I forgot to make this post yesterday!  It was Nicks birthday! My mom texted me in the morning about it, haha. She knows me way too well.
Anyway. If you don’t love him already you should learn to right now. It will enrich your life and bring you happiness and prosperity ok?

I made a Spotify playlist.

Sometimes I hope that I  my blog will grow only so that it will be so high up in google search lists that when Nick finally googles himself he will find my blog and marry me.
