In or Out?

Posted in Conundrums, December, LGBTIQ, Lyrical Laments, Music, Narcissistic Nuances, tagged , , , , , , , on December 16, 2009 | 1 Comment »

I don’t fit into a box and most of my life people have been trying to figure me out, including myself. During the course of this year I’ve been starting to appreciate that there’s no box big enough to hold the anomaly that is me. A friend sent me an Ani DiFranco song called In [...]

10 Things I Hate About You

So apparently this was a movie that I should have seen years ago, but it took me until last year when Jade thrust it apon me insisting that I watch it or else I couldn’t call myself a fan of Heath Ledger if not. True that. Loved the boy’s take on his role, even in [...]

Pardon the rather rude title but I’m at odds as to how to react to a bit of news I received a few days ago. It’s been stewing around in my head for a while and I thought I’d let you in on it to see how you’d react to it as well.
A certain church [...]

Poya Moon Rising

Posted in Conundrums, Prose, Vacations, tagged , , , , , on July 10, 2009 | 2 Comments »

The music starts, just as the moon rises and you claw your way through the throng, finding your way into the light. A night meant for dancing into the morning light as your body  takes over and you begin to sway….
Summer moon
On you face
O the wind blows so sweet
Come my way
Come my way
Dance with me
Let [...]

A little boy told me once that there’s always one sandwich missing in a sandwich basket. Apparently it was his philosophy in life. I laughed at the time. But as I began to get older I realized that truer words were never spoken. He had the most original way of telling me that nothing in [...]

Love is

This is not about the Brian McKinight / Vanessa Williams song that came out when I was running around in that ridiculous box-pleated contraption called a school uniform. Nor is it about the current blog drama going on. As pissed off as I am about it, I think it’s time to get back to the [...]

Let us confess…

Ever read Patrick Fernando’s poignant and aptly worded poem titled “The Fisherman Mourned by his Wife?” It’s one of those pieces that I have always been extremely fond of because of its realistic look at Sri Lankan marriage and relationships. 
The line “let us confess” starts off an information flow that really tugs at the heart. [...]

The Shooting Star Complex

Here’s a super quick post about something super-silly.  
You know what they say about too much of a good thing? Well, I think I’m getting it right now. In loads of small, varied doses. It may just be me, not knowing how to enjoy the nice, uncomplicated times when they head my way because the complications [...]

I have a tendency to want to solve things and I’m at my wits end with this one. So maybe you can help me out here. What I need is someone who can give me an opinion without being biased one way or the other.
Here’s the deal, a friend of mine recently said that [...]
