There is no escape. You can’t be a vagabond and an artist and still be a solid citizen, a wholesome, upstanding man. You want to get drunk, so you have to accept the hangover. You say yes to the sunlight and pure fantasies, so you have to say yes to the filth and the nausea. Everything is within you, gold and mud, happiness and pain, the laughter of childhood and the apprehension of death. Say yes to everything, shirk nothing. Don’t try to lie to yourself. You are not a solid citizen. You are not a Greek. You are not harmonious, or the master of yourself. You are a bird in the storm. Let it storm! Let it drive you! How much have you lied! A thousand times, even in your poems and books, you have played the harmonious man, the wise man, the happy, the enlightened man. In the same way, men attacking in war have played heroes, while their bowels twitched. My God, what a poor ape, what a fencer in the mirror man is- particularly the artist- particularly myself!

We are all alone, born alone, die alone, and — in spite of True Romance magazines — we shall all someday look back on our lives and see that, in spite of our company, we were alone the whole way. I do not say lonely — at least, not all the time — but essentially, and finally, alone. This is what makes your self-respect so important, and I don’t see how you can respect yourself if you must look in the hearts and minds of others for your happiness.

day 20. A letter to an animal you think is fucking stupid
Dear baby monkey,
I find you about 50% more irritating than your adult form. Maybe it’s just society’s labeling that’s found its way into my consciousness, or maybe it really is just me, either way. I don’t care that we might have possibly evolved from your race. I still think you’re stupid. The dog back-riding video doesn’t help.
Fruhlein.
note: I’m finally continuing this because it’s actually taken me this long to think of an animal that I can’t stand.:|

October
here, the tenth begins
the worned passage embraces
warmly, but i am burned.

Nothing in the cry
