Rolling Digital Dice & Tapping Broken Glass

I spent a majority of my morning clicking buttons on a comptuer, rolling digital dice in Baldurs Gate attempting to get the best possible scores for my characters attributes (abilities). If you're unfamiliar with D&D these are: Strength, Constitution, Dexterity, Intelligence, Wisdom, and Charism. These define how well your character does as it interacts with the world. Kinda important, so I took the time to get a banging roll. The character I'm creating is a half-elf multi-class fighter/mage. His name is Weize Gladefire. He's proficiant with morning stars and claims, and two-handed fighting style. I'm quite excited as this will mark my return to the Forgotten Realms universe aka Faerûn. Exciting, I know. Starting out fresh always has it's challenges, especially multi-classing, as I'll level up slower, but in the end, the benefits will far out weigh the sluggish start. I'll have the fighting skills to hold up in combat, with the added bonus of being able to use magic. And using magic, at least for myself, is quintessential if I'm embarking on a fantastical journey. I'll embellish more as my journey unfolds.

Speaking of embarking on new outtings, I've typed this all in the blogger app on my phone, which happens to have a shattered screen. Although shattered, it all still works, and sometimes you just have to use what's available to you at any particular moment. Unfortunately, I'm tired of pecking on this piece of shit, so I'll write more when I have a real computer.

Pessimistic Positivity

Moodyville's muse kicks tin cans
triumphant failures mock knowledge
and my positivity rides waves
moments influence, inflections laugh
I've gone deft to deliver
intentions to lift
strange, pessimism, smells putrid
cold comfort found in misery
the ministry dictates
fearing pain less, embracing more
presence will always be
and I mock myself
at my best, because I know all 
inner workings paved waves
I will be high
I will be low
my only goal
climb higher every peak
and fall harder
till I bleed
neglecting fear of impending injury
disdain for comfort
the most treacherous journey
is to the middle 

Perilous Feats, Trifling Weak

Here's a flip-flop. Flip-flapping, furthering fermentation, dank drinks drunk and destroyed. I got little words today, but think, big pictures rather. Fuck the thousand words, because that shit is never obvious.  Dastardly, they assume the signals from one persons eyeballs to the brain will somehow completely explain their intentions. My connections to these photographs will always be greater because I was there for the moment of capture. My thousand words are my own, and you can't have them. You'll undoubtedly form your own. That's the intention. It's art, and emotions seek the mother tongue for description. I can ad quips, steering the ship in a north-easterly direction, but you're already in the life raft drifting. Here's a life saver. My excitement is derived from crisp, extraordinarily framed, abundantly lit (or highly absorbed), photographs. 

Never mind. My phone just rang and I have to go move into my new house. 

A la Photographic. 


 Please Hold - While I travel to space and back.



These Streets are Full of Flair

Fervour Fears Feist

Chills spiral through to fruition. Mongrel dogs howl hypnotic through the darkness. Our fear feels, as comfort in numbers sits illusive. Journey's whisper is close, unseen, but awareness that her proximity is immediate, I steady my shaking hand. 

"Take another step!"

Thoughts of distant are irrelevant. It's here and now only for this moment, forever. Digest the setting, the sky folds through ripples of time and space. We can travel the impossible distance, whoever deemed impossible, never accomplished. I reach up and pluck stars, curing heartache forever. 

My DeLorean hums. I'm attacking horizons, spinning hesitations fear me. Gum trees blurrrrr. 
Eighty-Eight miles per hour, and I'm standing still. 

I've forgotten where I came from, and severely doubt the road that lies before me. Plucked from my own experience, I can't trust my perceptions of the future. Can I trust the past? Doubtful, recollections are faint, and wear pigs heads as masks, dancing naked round burning bushes. Fuck the meaning. I take off my pig head and am conscious. 

I'm not sure I can tell the difference between my day and night dreams. I find my imagination is working much more these days. I chalk it up to more viscera activity. My guts have been churning, my surroundings impacting my consumptions. Goon Sacks. Direct connection resulting in revelation. It's working, so habits changing is extremely unlikely. And why would I want to change? Why would you want to change? Careful now. Self-examination is dangerous if you're not qualified. Like self-medicating is frowned upon if you're not a doctor. But don't worry, I went to film school, I'm a qualified self-examiner. Introspection gets convoluted swift. I recommend balancing it out by self-medicating. I'm also a doctor, in my dreams. 

I have some pictures to upload as well, but I keep forgetting the card reader when I venture to town. I'll describe one of my favorites to keep your curiosities at bay. The set-up. Salty, Troy, Matt, and myself drove into Canberra the other day to gather supplies. On the way back I took some pictures from the back seat while we drove. Lets say, blurred lines transpired. Stay tuned friends.

This Mechanism got Tooled

Arbor arched awning aloft
Buzzed business burned bonds
Chatters chipped clipping cliques
Denver dogs dawned days
Effortless eulogy entranced equivocally
France fucked foreign freighters
Gators grind gruelling giblets
Horses hooves hovered hostile
Introspective indignation iced insensitivity 
Jaguar jinxed jumbo jet
Kaleidoscope kin killed king
Lustrous languish lulled lazily 
Monetized masqueraded meticulous melodrama
Nano nips nuzzled neatly
Optimized optometrists ordered oats
Pounding pandas paraded proudly
Quick queens quack quarterly
Rapping rabbits raped rubber
Stinging stipulations suffered stigmata
Tougher teams terminate transvestites
Uppers understand understatements ultimately
Victorian victories vacate vicinities 
Wandering wizards warp winchesters 
Xylotomous xylophone xeroxes x-rayed 
Yuppies yelled yesteryears yatters
Zipped zeal zealously zoomed

Cluster Heads full of Stars

 [Goals to the end of the Universe]
 [Heads full of Stars]
Cluster heads full of Vast
Distracted last
To the ends of the universe
Spells oft cast
Distilled, tasted curse
 [Jindabyne, NSW, Australia]
[Night Trails]
