Bite Marks In The Soap.
Posted on August 18, 2009 at 2:22pm 4 Comments 0 Favorites
Every time I open a brand new bar of soap out of the little cardboard box it reminds me of something. I hold it to my nose and inhale deeply. There is something about the soap, a promise. It looks so good. I want to bite into the soap even though I know what will happen. The mind is powerful and can lock away things for a very long time until you open a brand new box of soap.
I Have A Cut On My Bruise
Posted on August 2, 2009 at 12:21pm 7 Comments 0 Favorites
I must have some kind of deficiency because all of a sudden I'm filled with the urge to drive out to a fruit stand and buy sacks of plums and grapes and nectarines, maybe a hundred dollars worth. I will put all that shit right in an ice chest, because I like my fruit ice cold. I can't wait to get naked and eat all the fruit and spit out the pits right on the ground and let all the juices run down my beard and chest. You know I would get so high off the fruit, like fucking whacked out of my mind… Continue
The Story About Casey
Posted on June 11, 2009 at 11:16am 10 Comments 0 Favorites
I wrote this story about Casey, there was no beginning to the story. It didn't start with him being born or growing up or anything. I guess he arrived where he is at like the rest of us. There was no middle to the story either. I mean, Casey got married and had kids and all that but that's the whole middle of the story, not much else happened. There is no ending either, Casey is still alive and employed and all of that,
so that's the story about Casey.
so that's the story about Casey.
Backwards Fairy Tale

The most beautiful woman Tom has ever seen walks into the tattoo parlor.
The kind of beauty that opens doors and creates opportunity.
With a tear in her eye she asks for something ugly across her face.
Tom says, "the frown and the tears aren't enough?"
Standing there like a toothache; she has never been denied anything in her life.
The clock behind the counter strikes twelve.

BARRY'S AWKWARD ELEVATOR MOMENT CHALLENGE-MAC & PC
Posted on May 13, 2009 at 11:21am 8 Comments 0 Favorites
Satan and Jesus get on an elevator together and by Satan and Jesus I mean Bill Gates and Steve Jobs.
Satan...I mean Bill Gates is on the way down to the 666th floor when the elevator gets stuck somewhere in the hundreds.
They both stand there not looking at each other waiting for it to fix itself but it does not.
"If Microsoft designed this elevator we could just reboot in safe mode and be on our way", Bill says.
Steve doesn't respond, instead he… Continue

Harry commented on Jay Holmes's blog post I Have A Cut On My Bruise"Actually, I guess it's your last two sentences. "Thank God I live in California where a car crash looks beautiful in the sunlight. Anything you desire can be had from a vine if you can reach high enough to take it. " So four more ;)"
Harry commented on Jay Holmes's blog post I Have A Cut On My Bruise"Jay, I think your last sentence would be an excellent first sentence. I really do and I'd like to see you write five more that take off from there. H"

Simple Intelligence - you know that's a compliment? I could ramble further, but why prove my point.
Hope your lab is functional!

Who made the world?
Who made the swan, and the black bear?
Who made the grasshopper?
This grasshopper, I mean-
the one who has flung herself out of the grass,
the one who is eating sugar out of my hand,
who is moving her jaws back and forth instead of up and down-
who is gazing around with her enormous and complicated eyes.
Now she lifts her pale forearms and thoroughly washes her face.
Now she snaps her wings open, and floats away.
I don't know exactly what a prayer is.
I do know how to pay attention, how to fall down
into the grass, how to kneel down in the grass,
how to be idle and blessed, how to stroll through the fields,
which is what I have been doing all day.
Tell me, what else should I have done?
Doesn't everything die at last, and too soon?
Tell me, what is it you plan to do
with your one wild and precious life?
