Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

Has to have been the song.

Because books.

It was the song the Vietnam chorus was singing, which was essentially, "Yay socialism," I guess. I didn't really get it.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Yeah, it was the "Woo! Socialism!" song. Facebook had suggested I might be interested in some blog posts about it earlier in the week.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Good lord. I guess upon some reflection I can kinda sorta see that there might be people still sore about the Vietnam war who might take it as stomping on their faces, but I wouldn't have thought it in advance.

Yeah, it seemed a little weird. It's not like we left there with a shining new democracy intact.

Oh, my roommate and I were confused also, but when she googled she said it was the U-Turn (?) being at a downed fighter plane?

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

The Voice starts tonight. Too soon, IMO, but I am curious to see what Shakira and Usher bring to the show.

Huh. That at least makes more sense.
