Last night my apartment burned down because some girl left towls next to a radiator, i carried Helen around because she was a naked humanoid cyborg who had to be saved, i stole an Italian paintings from a Vila and then lost them under the sea, I climbed up a fire escape and watched my apartment burn when my neighbors came to warn me I just laughed and left town with what I had on me. I got a call from Alyssa at some ruins next to a lake, she was really angry with me, and warned that there are better things in her life, she has someone more special, and she had no need for me. I woke up, scared, I imedatly checked for signs of a fire and some clothes for helen, when i step outside it looked like a small bomb had exploded on the east wall and people were comming out of their rooms covered in soot, helen was no where to be found, I talked to a girl about fire, and when I was about to find the lighter in my pocket I actually woke up, my hand looking for the lighter. Amber dreams are probably some of the most honest.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/16125936-6668081460878307376?l=bharat-patel.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://bharat-patel.blogspot.com/feeds/6668081460878307376/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=16125936&amp;postID=6668081460878307376' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/16125936/posts/default/6668081460878307376'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/16125936/posts/default/6668081460878307376'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://bharat-patel.blogspot.com/2010/01/amber-dreams.html' title='Amber dreams.'/><author><name>Sprawl</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03209492101745473319</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_T8KC0PdOCxE/SwvRFHPCMsI/AAAAAAAAASU/NSHXDtRpnjs/S220/16732_1243200353801_1043100036_776305_3448965_n.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16125936.post-1450495311514218424</id><published>2010-01-17T22:37:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2010-01-17T22:37:54.774-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Judy</title><content type='html'>Tonight I rode.

The dictator Nicolae Ceausescu had been deposed a few days before, and on Christmas Day he would be executed by firing squad. I am in the center of the city with my friends, empty now of the crowds that prayed outside the cathedral during the worst of the fighting. My friends and I still hear shots here and there. Our cold hands are gray like the sky above us, and we want to see a movie.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There is a rumor that there will be oranges for sale tonight. Hundreds of people are already waiting in line. We were used to such lines under the former Communist Government-lines for bread, lines for meat, lines for everything. Families would wait much of the day for rationed items. As children, we would take turns for an hour or more, holding our family’s place in line.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But this line is different. There are children in Romania who don’t know what an orange looks like. It is a special treat. Having the chance to eat a single orange will keep a child happy for a week. It will also make him a hero in the eyes of his friends. For the first time, someone is selling oranges by the kilo.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Suddenly I want to do something important: I want to give my brother a big surprise. He is only eight years old, and I want him to celebrate Christmas with lots of oranges at the table. I also want my parents to be proud of me.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So I call home and tell my parents that I’m going to be late. I forget about going to the movie, leave my friends, and join the line.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;People aren’t silent, upset, frustrated, as they were before the revolution; they are talking to one another about life, politics, and the new situation in the country.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The oranges are sold out of the back doorway of a food shop. The clerk has gone from anonymity to unexpected importance. As he handles the oranges, he acts like a movie star in front of his fans.&lt;br /&gt;He moves his arms in an exaggerated manner as he tells the other workers where to go and what to do. All I can do is stare at the stack of cardboard boxes, piled higher than me. I have never seen so many oranges in my life.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Finally, it is my turn. It is 8 o’clock, and I have been waiting for six hours. It doesn’t seem like a long time because my mind has been flying from the oranges in front of me to my brother and then back to the oranges. I hand over the money I was going to spend on the movie and watch each orange being thrown into my bag. I try to count them, but I lose their number.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am drunk with the idea of oranges. I put the bag inside my coat as if I want to absorb their warmth. They aren’t heavy at all, and I feel that this is going to be the best Christmas of my life. I begin thinking of how I am going to present my gift.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I get home and my father opens the door. He is amazed when he sees the oranges, and we decide to hide them until dinner. At dessert that night, I give my brother the present. Everyone is silent. They can’t believe it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My brother doesn’t touch them. He is afraid even to look at them. Maybe they aren’t real. Maybe they are an illusion, like everything else these days.

It started out innocently enough, I had driven for about an hour and a half, and decided to stop at a reststop, refuel  and get something to drink. I got ready for the next two or so hours of driving and headed off on the 5. From behind me I see a white car rolling up at what had to be at least 90mph...so naturally I tried to block whoever it was from getting past me. She made it past me, a white mustange, the plate read "POLISH&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: #555555;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;♥", and so the chase was on. I'd &amp;nbsp;get past her for a bit, and then she try to swerve and speed up past me, every now and again we'd exchange a quick glance, as it got darker we would flash our fog lights. Eventually it became competitve, who could maintain the highest speed, who could play chicken with the trucking lane and the cars, who &amp;nbsp;could loop around the other more times. Finally she peeled off at a rest stop, I noticed I was about half a tank full so I figured I might as well fill up too. So There we were, car to car, refueling, and I can't help but grin a bit as she walks past me to go into the minimart. I follow afterwards to go use the restroom and buy some much needed sour worms. As I walk out I see she is about to pull away, but just before she does, she stops the car, rolls down the window, and gives me a quick little taunting gesture with her hand. So I run to my car, hop in, and chase.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #555555;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #555555;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;Yeah, I spent the better course of the next few hours chasing after a girl, and basically we flirted, using our cars. She was pretty good at almost giving me the slip, but just as soon as she figured I couldn't tail her, I'd zoom up behind her, and then she was in persuit, and damn what a woman. Eventually I notice my tank has just about a third of fuel left, and so I decide to stop, I blink my lights at her to say farewell, but she opts to stop with me. This time we actually exchanged a few words, and hung out for about half &amp;nbsp;an hour on the roofs of our cars drinking&amp;nbsp;hot chocolate. It was kind of sweet actually in that sort of "this is too unreal to be real" sort of way.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #555555;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #555555;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;We did eventually part ways though, about half an hour away from getting home, she opened her window and waved me off, the entire time I never knew her name, and she never asked for mine either. But it was really fun, and she was pretty cute. I feel like I have a better handle of my car now too, which was a nice plus.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #555555;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #555555;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;So Polish&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;♥, it was nice racing you, thanks for keeping me company&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #555555;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #555555;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;Top Speed: 120mph, and my car almost fell apart.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/16125936-5136626405201482217?l=bharat-patel.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://bharat-patel.blogspot.com/feeds/5136626405201482217/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=16125936&amp;postID=5136626405201482217' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/16125936/posts/default/5136626405201482217'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/16125936/posts/default/5136626405201482217'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://bharat-patel.blogspot.com/2009/12/polish.html' title='Polish♥'/><author><name>Sprawl</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03209492101745473319</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_T8KC0PdOCxE/SwvRFHPCMsI/AAAAAAAAASU/NSHXDtRpnjs/S220/16732_1243200353801_1043100036_776305_3448965_n.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16125936.post-8329735165392567017</id><published>2009-12-16T10:08:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2009-12-16T10:08:12.799-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Red Bow</title><content type='html'>I was packing things today, and looking through my boxes for wires, and then I came across that box full of all my old pictures and scraps of papers, and bits of things, small mementos...and in the middle a red bow, your red bow. You know for once I know this isn't a fleeting emotion, just a haphazard feeling created through a mixture of pop culture, media, music, and my imagination, I ached. I loved that girl, and she hasn't changed much, and maybe it was me who changed a bit, but we are people and we are allowed to do that, in fact we should. But it seems like time passed us by, and that red bow, it stood still in all that time, and it took me back, and that was nice. It was really nice.

The shit we buy, the people we hang around with, fuck and even love are just means to an end, a way to stave off the crushing loneliness that is to be alone and unloved. We buy into the idea of happiness as portrayed by the mass media, that happiness is found through social engagement, through the expenditure of the money we earn working for multi-millionaires that don\'t know us, don\'t care. If we live or die, we haven\'t made a mark on the world.&lt;br /&gt;We check Facebook compulsively, Twitter about our breakfasts and talk to our friends and coworkers about wild parties, prospective mates and expensive purchases: Attempts to show our sociability, our ability to fit in, our willingness to buy into this great corporate dream.&lt;br /&gt;If you want my advice, write something. Draw something. Tell someone something. Do something, ANYTHING, that will outlive this culture, that will transcend its boundaries and touch someone. #1197090 Guest on Dec 10, 2009 @ 23:08&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://www.writesomething.net/&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;i wrote:&lt;br /&gt;i wonder how all of this will read in the end, how will our collective conscious read, i really do believe humanity is trying desperately to connect to each other\'s conscious but we are rushing so very quickly headfirst to destroying ourselves first.

you breathe, I want to be endless, free flowing, timeless, fluid, unformed, and for once unknown. Never seen, hardly heard, never known. I want to flow through your fingertips, carry the scent if your hair, pass in and out of you, through you, shield you and wear you away. I don't want to be. I am air. I am all around never once acknowledged. I want to be vapor. I am the reason you can breathe easy, sing strong, whisper silently, be heard and known. I want to be your medium but never your inspiration. You will be because of me but I will never be the cause of you. And if I am ever gone, you will choke to a slow and painful end, and so I will never go, because I am what allows your life force to permeate. I am abstract, like the gravity that keeps you grounded, or like the heat that will transfer from your hands to the hands of others. I will never shock you till I am gone, and I never will be gone. You can't hold onto me, you will never be able to grasp onto me. I'll always love all of you, but you won't ever know that. I will disappear as soon as you know me.I am ethereal and endless. I am real, and romantic, but you'll never know this.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I will not be yours not ever, because I won't even be able to be me.&lt;br /&gt;But, I'll dry your tears when you cry, because I can't stand that.&lt;br /&gt;The stuff you've dealt with, I never will be able to understand.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/16125936-934669142950067944?l=bharat-patel.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://bharat-patel.blogspot.com/feeds/934669142950067944/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=16125936&amp;postID=934669142950067944' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/16125936/posts/default/934669142950067944'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/16125936/posts/default/934669142950067944'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://bharat-patel.blogspot.com/2009/11/air.html' title='Air'/><author><name>Sprawl</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03209492101745473319</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_T8KC0PdOCxE/SwvRFHPCMsI/AAAAAAAAASU/NSHXDtRpnjs/S220/16732_1243200353801_1043100036_776305_3448965_n.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_T8KC0PdOCxE/Sw0qlAcgViI/AAAAAAAAAS0/ktHOb4bj8WI/s72-c/IMG_3849.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16125936.post-6937708113479886864</id><published>2009-11-25T03:10:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2009-11-25T03:12:24.580-08:00</updated><title type='text'>&lt;&lt;</title><content type='html'>REWIND, rewind the fucken thing!!!!&lt;br /&gt;Go back to passive mode. scan, filter, process, repeat.&lt;br /&gt;Whatever you do, don't fuck with the reel.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/16125936-6937708113479886864?l=bharat-patel.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://bharat-patel.blogspot.com/feeds/6937708113479886864/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=16125936&amp;postID=6937708113479886864' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/16125936/posts/default/6937708113479886864'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/16125936/posts/default/6937708113479886864'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://bharat-patel.blogspot.com/2009/11/blog-post.html' title='&lt;&lt;'/><author><name>Sprawl</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03209492101745473319</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_T8KC0PdOCxE/SwvRFHPCMsI/AAAAAAAAASU/NSHXDtRpnjs/S220/16732_1243200353801_1043100036_776305_3448965_n.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16125936.post-4275991510483214437</id><published>2009-11-22T11:33:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2009-11-22T11:35:45.482-08:00</updated><title type='text'>A tiny bit of joy.</title><content type='html'>I had breakfast just now, at Cafe Durant. The light this morning was bright but my eyes loved it, the air looked peaceful. I saw the prettiest girl there, with the warmest smile, calm blue green eyes, light maple colored hair slightly messy with a bit falling over her eyes, a beauty mark placed just politely above the left side of her lips, a petite nose with just a slight right sided crook. I honestly wished I could somehow retain her state there, immortally. It is astounding how seeing beauty makes you avert your gaze as if I was staring at some secret truth about the cosmos.

It's now that I realize how one of a kind that little book really was.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yes, I can buy another to replace it, and I can even create new book... but what I've now lost is irreplaceable. The end of my summer, a quarter life crisis,fear and solitude, the rage within placidity, dreams i won't remember, people i won't forget, what it feels like to almost die slowly, modified recipes, the nervous fluttering my stomach gets when I meet a girl I know I'd marry (a condition since I was 5).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Its a short notation of my life, and sure its not a treasure to anyone else, but to me it really is priceless.&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;It's lost somewhere within south side Berkeley, the range running from CKC down to telegraph, below the campus line. If anyone finds it my name and number are written within the front cover, please give me a call.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/16125936-6190241112057841222?l=bharat-patel.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://bharat-patel.blogspot.com/feeds/6190241112057841222/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=16125936&amp;postID=6190241112057841222' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/16125936/posts/default/6190241112057841222'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/16125936/posts/default/6190241112057841222'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://bharat-patel.blogspot.com/2009/11/empty-back-pocket.html' title='Empty Back Pocket.'/><author><name>Sprawl</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03209492101745473319</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_T8KC0PdOCxE/SwvRFHPCMsI/AAAAAAAAASU/NSHXDtRpnjs/S220/16732_1243200353801_1043100036_776305_3448965_n.jpg'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16125936.post-8401870417362115597</id><published>2009-11-02T06:03:00.001-08:00</published><updated>2009-11-02T06:03:42.676-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Secret Girlfriend</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/16125936-8401870417362115597?l=bharat-patel.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://bharat-patel.blogspot.com/feeds/8401870417362115597/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=16125936&amp;postID=8401870417362115597' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/16125936/posts/default/8401870417362115597'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/16125936/posts/default/8401870417362115597'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://bharat-patel.blogspot.com/2009/11/secret-girlfriend.html' title='Secret Girlfriend'/><author><name>Sprawl</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03209492101745473319</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_T8KC0PdOCxE/SwvRFHPCMsI/AAAAAAAAASU/NSHXDtRpnjs/S220/16732_1243200353801_1043100036_776305_3448965_n.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16125936.post-8233742801013764267</id><published>2009-10-19T09:48:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2009-10-19T09:59:07.725-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Facing the Storm</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_T8KC0PdOCxE/StyZYT3ww2I/AAAAAAAAASI/CDqM2JYP3tw/s1600-h/IMG_1230.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px;

Because really it points to how fragile this entire thing is, everything tends to hang on pins that are microns thinner than human hair. Do you know how easy it could be to just let go sometimes? Waiting, people say its passive, I beg to differ, I understand it as perseverance and proof. But still, it would be so easy maybe to let everything just phase away as if you didn't exist, maybe.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But you cant phase anything out of existence, and this is what saves me every time.

I guess even nocturnal critters like me need to know when the sun is gonna come out again.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;so first it was just fall, then it became winter, and then there was a long eclipse, and now i just have to wait it out, or maybe i should just get up and move somewhere else for now, and then eventually the seaon will change.

I want to remember everything I know, all at once, and maybe have my mind fuck up because of the stuff I repressed. I want a bit of chaos and a tad bit of self destruction. Oh and I still feel like dropping out, not eating, and picking up multiple deadly habits. I kind of want to look up how thin human blood can get before it hits the minimum threshold of life threatening. I sort of want to pull that lip ring out, with force, spiteful force. I want to hang out of my window, the risk of falling isn't that high and honestly I wouldn't die easily from this height. I want to gut a fish. I want to sleep, soundly. I want today to be cold and cloudy, maybe rainy, i wish the sun would just fuck off more. I wish i was special or talented and I wish my friends benefit from knowing me, and I hope I really am as accommodating and helpful as they say I am. I wish I really did have a fat ego, at least then I wouldn't give as much of a shit. I wish I didn't feel old, I wish i felt like fucking, and i wish I felt like going off to countries to fuck, and I wish i thought about fucking more; but I don't I don't really feel like fucking that much. I sort of hope the world ends in my lifetime, just so people feel bad and guilty for never doing what they said they planed to do or wished they had done on that last day, and at least I will be okay knowing I tired and I always said I love you and meant it. I wish I didn't need to eat, just cook. I know only one person I wish would die, honestly just die, and I know of 5 that I'd like to personally kick. I wish i had flowers growing outside my windows, I wish i had a garden, I wish I could smell the soil and the plants and the wind. I wish i could live life far far far away from people who go abroad every summer and talk about how amazing it was and how they learned shit and ate food and talked to people and got wasted and fucked and how they want to go back and all that crap. I wish some kid more deserving then me would be allowed to go to school. I wish you where here at 6:50AM with me, asking me what's wrong, just so I could say nothing at all dear, go to sleep we still have our entire lives to dream about before I wake up. I wish I was a better kisser and had more chances to prove it. I wish for a day that all the birds would go mute and flightless. I wish people would stop calling crap art and calling art crap. I kind of want to see what a world without any tolerance and where the first impressions people had HAD to be vocalized immediately. I really do dream of a tolerant global society of multiple preserved cultural histories, that really didn't need a central government just a few good folks to make sure that energy can be directed to cures for plagues and toward exploration but NOT colonization of space. I kind of want to see what 1947 was like in England, and what northern Africa looked like 25,000 years ago. I wish all my furniture would disappear, and my carpeting would burn up, just so I can sit in an empty room for a while. I know if i was immortal I'd cry a lot, and then I would stop. I love my parents, I tell my mom that more often, and I try really hard to make sure my sister ends up much better off than I will. Despite all of my doubts, I know that they are all pointless, I love you, and that's so deceptively simple, it actually hurts, I mean every thing feels pointless and painful and like sludge and shit; I really will stop time, and just age away and die, I will write about the process too.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I don't want attention, so much as I just want it recorded, I want every good and pretty and lovely and guilty fucked up demented shitty thought I have recorded just so I'm not the only one who has to listen to myself every second I am even half conscious, I'm scared of myself and how happy I look sometimes, and how easily I love to laugh and how much I find amusing, where is all this joy, is it just because I know nothing is really ever serious, is life a joke? Then why all this suffering? Maybe that's why I laugh so much all the time, its the one remedy to just shattering while everyone and I suffer and experience ecstasy in the many moments of life.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'm glad no one reads this, I really am.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/16125936-1897419054118761581?l=bharat-patel.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://bharat-patel.blogspot.com/feeds/1897419054118761581/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=16125936&amp;postID=1897419054118761581' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/16125936/posts/default/1897419054118761581'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/16125936/posts/default/1897419054118761581'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://bharat-patel.blogspot.com/2009/09/imagine-what-human-fat-smells-and.html' title='Imagine what human fat smells and tastes like.'/><author><name>Sprawl</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03209492101745473319</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_T8KC0PdOCxE/SwvRFHPCMsI/AAAAAAAAASU/NSHXDtRpnjs/S220/16732_1243200353801_1043100036_776305_3448965_n.jpg'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16125936.post-6249048268320841616</id><published>2009-09-26T00:57:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-09-26T01:13:39.112-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Headshots</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family: arial;"&gt;I've been listening to new music that I've been meaning to listen to for ages. Its nice to catch up, its nice to hear sound, really hear it, really listen i mean. I wish i had some kick ass speakers, I might actually look into buying some online right now while I'm in the mood. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: arial;"&gt;I've been skipping a lot of my reading, and even more of my witting. Still managing to get by, but just hardly, I don't know whats up with me, but I honestly don't feel like a student and I'm only in my third year of undergraduate studies, for fucks sake how am I gonna be a teacher at this rate?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: arial;"&gt;I kind of just want to work with my hands, I feel like I would make a great bike mechanic, or maybe I could just charge people to fix their computers. I like problem solving, and I like working with my hands, and I like spending time on getting things done when other people might just stop. I wish I was better at it too. I kind of think I'd enjoy being a freelance handy man or something...&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: arial;"&gt;I kind of just want to be an artist, my guitar skills are very slow at developing, I don't get enough time to really get into drawing or painting either, not to the point where I am drawing anything I care to share or even display much less keep. I feel like my creativity is being drained as a tax for being such a shitty student and for wasting so much potential.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: arial;"&gt;Worst of all I feel like I am annoying you, I feel too needy; your the last person in the world to ever make me feel like that, and so I know for a fact it's all in my head, just like it always is, just like it will always be. Why can't I just allow for the distance and the time to do what  it inevitably will? I feel like for once I don't want to go with the flow of what is natural here, I really wanna fight back.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: arial;"&gt;I know love is real, even if I do think of myself as a mass of flesh and meat, of pulsing electricity and pumping fluids, of hormones and sensory feedback. Even if its just a mess of chemicals, even if its all just stardust, even if I find it's source a little disconcerting; I still love. Its honestly the last thing I am sure of these days, and that is a good and very very very scary realization. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/16125936-6249048268320841616?l=bharat-patel.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://bharat-patel.blogspot.com/feeds/6249048268320841616/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=16125936&amp;postID=6249048268320841616' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/16125936/posts/default/6249048268320841616'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/16125936/posts/default/6249048268320841616'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://bharat-patel.blogspot.com/2009/09/headshots.html' title='Headshots'/><author><name>Sprawl</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03209492101745473319</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_T8KC0PdOCxE/SwvRFHPCMsI/AAAAAAAAASU/NSHXDtRpnjs/S220/16732_1243200353801_1043100036_776305_3448965_n.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16125936.post-4525612536617059913</id><published>2009-09-13T03:16:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-09-13T03:17:22.677-07:00</updated><title type='text'>june 15th 2011</title><content type='html'>i wish i could talk to you all night, i really could i know i could.&lt;br /&gt;i love you, and it kills me a little when we have to hang up&lt;br /&gt;i wish we could be timeless, like my cell.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/16125936-4525612536617059913?l=bharat-patel.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://bharat-patel.blogspot.com/feeds/4525612536617059913/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=16125936&amp;postID=4525612536617059913' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/16125936/posts/default/4525612536617059913'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/16125936/posts/default/4525612536617059913'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://bharat-patel.blogspot.com/2009/09/june-15th-2011.html' title='june 15th 2011'/><author><name>Sprawl</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03209492101745473319</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_T8KC0PdOCxE/SwvRFHPCMsI/AAAAAAAAASU/NSHXDtRpnjs/S220/16732_1243200353801_1043100036_776305_3448965_n.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16125936.post-4572154438600695679</id><published>2009-09-07T23:05:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-09-07T23:14:59.977-07:00</updated><title type='text'>2pm</title><content type='html'>Seriously it felt like a hand off, that was awkward.

If I could offer you only one tip for the future, sunscreen would be it. The long-term benefits of sunscreen have been proved by scientists, whereas the rest of my advice has no basis more reliable than my own meandering experience. I will dispense this advice now.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Enjoy the power and beauty of your youth. Oh, never mind. You will not understand the power and beauty of your youth until they've faded. But trust me, in 20 years, you'll look back at photos of yourself and recall in a way you can't grasp now how much possibility lay before you and how fabulous you really looked. You are not as fat as you imagine.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Don't worry about the future. Or worry, but known that worrying is as effective as trying to solve an algebra equation by chewing bubble gum. The real troubles in your life are apt to be things that never crossed your worried mind, the kind that blindside you at 4 pm on some idle Tuesday.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Do one thing every day that scares you.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sing.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Don't be reckless with other people's hearts. Don't put up with people who are reckless with yours.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Floss.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Don't waste your time on jealousy. Sometimes you're ahead, sometimes you're behind. The race is long and, in the end, it's only with yourself.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Remember compliments you receive. Forget the insults. If you succeed in doing this, tell me how.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Keep your old love letters. Throw away your old bank statements.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Stretch.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Don't feel guilty if you don't know what you want to do with your life. The most interesting people I know didn't know at 22 what they wanted to do with their lives. Some of the most interesting 40-year-olds I know still don't.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Get plenty of calcium. Be kind to your knees. You'll miss them when they're gone.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Maybe you'll marry, maybe you won't. Maybe you'll have children, maybe you won't. Maybe you'll divorce at 40, maybe you'll dance the funky chicken on your 75th wedding anniversary. Whatever you do, don't congratulate yourself too much, or berate yourself either. You choices are half chance. So are everybody else's.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Enjoy your body. Use it every way you can. Don't be afraid of it or of what other people think of it. It's the greatest instrument you'll ever own.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dance, even if you have nowhere to do it but your living room.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Read the directions, even if you don't follow them.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Do not read beauty magazines. They will only make you feel ugly.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Get to know your parents. You never know when they'll be gone for good.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Be nice to your siblings. They're your best link to your past and the people most likely to stick with you in the future.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Understand that friends come and go, but with a precious few you should hold on. WOrk hard to bridge the gaps in geography and lifestyle, because the older you get, the more you need the people who knew you when you were young.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Live in New York City once, but leave before it makes you hard.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Live in Northern California once, but leave before it makes you soft.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Travel.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Accept certain inalienable truths: Prices will rise. Politicians will philander. You, too, will get old. And when you do, you'll fantasize that when you were young, prices were reasonable, politicians were noble, and children respected their elders.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Respect your elders.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Don't expect anyone else to support you. Maybe you have a trust fund. Maybe you'll have a wealthy spouse. But you never know when either one might run out.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Don't mess too much with your hair or by the time you're 40 it will look 85.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Be careful whose advice you buy, but be patient with those who supply it. Advice is a form of nostalgia. Dispensing it is a way of fishing the past from the disposal, wiping it off, painting over the ugly parts, and recycling it for more than it's worth.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But trust me on the sunscreen.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Written by Mary Schmich&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/16125936-8671218254179966860?l=bharat-patel.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://bharat-patel.blogspot.com/feeds/8671218254179966860/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=16125936&amp;postID=8671218254179966860' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/16125936/posts/default/8671218254179966860'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/16125936/posts/default/8671218254179966860'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://bharat-patel.blogspot.com/2009/08/graduation-speech-to-live-by.html' title='Graduation Speech to Live By'/><author><name>Sprawl</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03209492101745473319</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_T8KC0PdOCxE/SwvRFHPCMsI/AAAAAAAAASU/NSHXDtRpnjs/S220/16732_1243200353801_1043100036_776305_3448965_n.jpg'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16125936.post-2199557322288631680</id><published>2009-08-14T02:57:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-08-14T03:13:38.208-07:00</updated><title type='text'>There is nothing wrong with me.</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family: arial;"&gt;Ever get the feeling that your skin is just barely keeping everything together? Like there is energy just under it's surface, pure and volatile, ready to just shred the outer layer and break free, essentially disintegrating you and destroying you, reverting you back into pure energy and space dust, its all the same either way. I've always found it so strange that I should be nothing more then a collection of electric flesh, there is so little to me, I am so very very insubstantial. And yet somehow I can still so easily glorify what it is to be human, the philosophical intricacies of what it is to be human are the exact inverse of how simple we are. As an entity I find importance in this, but the physical shell of my being, it feels so very weak and disposable.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: arial;"&gt;When will the evolution of our collective concious occur?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: arial;"&gt;What are we exactly, really? &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: arial;"&gt;Because though our biology is a bit more complex then electrified flesh, I don't think it is really that significent beyond making sure that our bodies continue to function as well as they can so our actual reality can contine to exist. I feel like it hinders our possiable experiences as well, though capable of what it is capable of it seems so very weak and prone to so many ills.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: arial;"&gt;No, I'm not on anything, a bit lovestruck, and though my legs are tired from biking today I'm not that tired after my nap which I expected would be my sleep. I need to keep having these thoughts, I know for sure I am not the only one, there are millions of us thinking like this, and we should not be perscribed pills so we can write papers, and fill out forms, and do our jobs.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1'

type='text'>Repression of Emotion</title><content type='html'>I just wanna sit there holding onto you, forever, no joke, no stupid outlandish and unrealistic understanding of how long that is. It's all the time ever left, cept it keeps going even when all the time is gone, because forever is relative to no time, its the exceeding boundary.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That's what I feel like right now, I wish I could actually intoxicate everyone with everything I am feeling, everything would just stop being real. Intead everything would function as if  we were in  a world of forms and ideals and exceeding thoes bounds.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That's what I feel. I feel transcendent. I feel like writing is not sufficient. I feel better than your drugs and your music, and your best sex, and your wealth, and your fame, your history, your pride, your philosophy, and your mother's womb when you were just 5 months old.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And no, you can't argue for your side on this matter, you lost before you even knew you could.&lt;br /&gt;I'm not anyone special, but I really doubt anyone's brain chemistry is making them feel this intense right now.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'm either gonna shatter, into such a state of disrepair that everyone and everything around whatever is left of me will just distance and die away from me. Or I'll feel like this all the time, even after ages and ages, and the inevitable crap moments which i highly doubt will happen but just to be safe ill include them here.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The risk is worth it, many many times over.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/16125936-3993768442987931899?l=bharat-patel.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://bharat-patel.blogspot.com/feeds/3993768442987931899/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=16125936&amp;postID=3993768442987931899' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/16125936/posts/default/3993768442987931899'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/16125936/posts/default/3993768442987931899'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://bharat-patel.blogspot.com/2009/08/repression-of-emotion.html' title='Repression of Emotion'/><author><name>Sprawl</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03209492101745473319</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_T8KC0PdOCxE/SwvRFHPCMsI/AAAAAAAAASU/NSHXDtRpnjs/S220/16732_1243200353801_1043100036_776305_3448965_n.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16125936.post-328886358768549881</id><published>2009-08-12T05:15:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-08-12T05:19:54.545-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Single Edge Blade</title><content type='html'>I keep watching movies where people are cutting themselves.&lt;br /&gt;It stings me really badly every single time.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/16125936-328886358768549881?l=bharat-patel.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://bharat-patel.blogspot.com/feeds/328886358768549881/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=16125936&amp;postID=328886358768549881' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/16125936/posts/default/328886358768549881'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/16125936/posts/default/328886358768549881'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://bharat-patel.blogspot.com/2009/08/single-edge-blade.html' title='Single Edge Blade'/><author><name>Sprawl</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03209492101745473319</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_T8KC0PdOCxE/SwvRFHPCMsI/AAAAAAAAASU/NSHXDtRpnjs/S220/16732_1243200353801_1043100036_776305_3448965_n.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16125936.post-7187999910631022981</id><published>2009-08-12T01:13:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-08-12T01:17:56.744-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Time and why i no longer worry about it.</title><content type='html'>Because you said so.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Actually your kind of absolutely right, but I probably actually listen to you, and that probably makes more of a difference than if anyone else said so.

I never want to drive this distance, its always clear of heavy traffic, and it lets my mind wander too easily. Lately I've taken to trying to empty my head of all active thinking, so far its an utter failure, so I figured today I would try to hold a camera steady while I drove, you can see that this followed the same vein as most of my attempts, failure. I scrubbed together this video of the whole thing, and I figured maybe you might like to drive with me, back to wherever I was before I got home, as I try to fast forward my life, in reverse.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/16125936-2678594105575951386?l=bharat-patel.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://bharat-patel.blogspot.com/feeds/2678594105575951386/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=16125936&amp;postID=2678594105575951386' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/16125936/posts/default/2678594105575951386'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/16125936/posts/default/2678594105575951386'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://bharat-patel.blogspot.com/2009/08/ff.html' title='FF &lt;&lt;'/><author><name>Sprawl</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03209492101745473319</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_T8KC0PdOCxE/SwvRFHPCMsI/AAAAAAAAASU/NSHXDtRpnjs/S220/16732_1243200353801_1043100036_776305_3448965_n.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16125936.post-6606869755953002481</id><published>2009-08-09T02:17:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2009-08-09T04:01:05.090-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Cupcakes</title><content type='html'>So you basically looked too adorable, for a split second my head went off on a little day dream.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic; color: rgb(102, 102, 102);font-size:100%;" &gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left; color: rgb(102, 102, 102); font-style: italic;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;We were cooking for our friends that Christmas, I was 27 you were 26, we lived in a apartment, filled with new wedding present we had gotten earlier that fall. I was running around like a mad man all day trying to get stuff done in between grading, you came home from the studio at around 5. You put on that apron I got you years ago, and without so much as complaining that I was a thoughtless idiot for not even greeting you as you entered you would get to mixing up batter for a desert. I'd look up for a moment to check the timer, and see you there, always so selfless I would think. And for two minutes that last forever I'd wrap my arms around you and just look at our reflection in the glass of the window overlooking the city.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Your hair would have a strand or two out of place, your waist would have dropped an inch or two because you grew an inch or two, but never enough so you wouldn't fit perfectly under my chin, even with heals on. Your face wouldn't have aged a tad bit, at least nothing you would admit to, and I would always just tell you you were just imagining things again. Your skin would only hint at your tan of the past summer, and your eyes would  shimmer, like you were just about to tear up.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'd have a 5 o'clock shadow, my face would have gained more age, thine out a bit more, a bit of stress would give it that tired edge, my hair would have lost a bit of density, just a tad but i would never admit to it and you would always tell me i was just imagining things again. But my eyes they would hint to anyone at just how happy I am, just how lucky I am.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And inevitably I will leave the roast in the oven too long, our cat would knock over the appetizers I had made, and you would just laugh at my failures, and go back to mixing.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;By the time this all wafted through my head you had already taken off that apron, I almost asked you to put the Alice in the living room, she's our cat you see.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I love you, goodnight.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/16125936-6606869755953002481?l=bharat-patel.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://bharat-patel.blogspot.com/feeds/6606869755953002481/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=16125936&amp;postID=6606869755953002481' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/16125936/posts/default/6606869755953002481'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/16125936/posts/default/6606869755953002481'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://bharat-patel.blogspot.com/2009/08/cupcakes.html' title='Cupcakes'/><author><name>Sprawl</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03209492101745473319</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_T8KC0PdOCxE/SwvRFHPCMsI/AAAAAAAAASU/NSHXDtRpnjs/S220/16732_1243200353801_1043100036_776305_3448965_n.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16125936.post-1456559171235347442</id><published>2009-08-08T02:21:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-08-08T02:22:57.771-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Brand New Colony</title><content type='html'>I'll be the platform shoes and undo what heredity's done to you...&lt;br /&gt;You won't have to strain to look into my eyes&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;These are the words my heart would sing if I had any background in music theory.&lt;br /&gt;I love you, goodnight.

Its not something i pride myself on, its just something i do every year. I preserve what I can, and I seal it all up nice and tight. Some pieces cut and sting a bit, sometimes it hurts, other bits are rather nice, and some soothe, but I have to collect them all and put them all in. Each piece is a prized possession you know, good or bad. After sealing it tight, I store it away deep deep down, and I let the sand cover it up and the water wash over it. Oh i know where it is, right there, in my happiest place. I know its early, but some years i start earlier than others.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One day I expect I'll show every little piece, or I will just keep them all there, hidden away, I know I won't forget though, even if maybe, just maybe, a very very very tiny part of me, a very tiny part you see, it wants to maybe forget, but not really, never really, it just thinks it does, its very privy to

I know I know, go ahead, call me out on that statement, seriously go ahead and explain to me for a few hours what its like to be years older then me, that's fine. I just want it to be noted, that I too, am getting old. My face is aging fast, I can see it every day in the mirror. Every time I look at myself, all I see is my own slow decay. I've been rewatching movies that I liked from the last few months, re listening to music that i liked from the last few months, rewriting things i liked from the last few months. I wish i could relive some moments from the last few months. In fact, I wish i could really re-do this entire past year.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I wonder what the fuck everyone is doing these days, you know I'm actually kind of glad that we all just slowly separated, it was like a nice bitter break up, until you run into your ex again, and have to make pleasantries. I mean its nice, but honestly you have to admit, its unfortunate in a sense. Not that I wouldn't mind, i guess I'm just a bit bitter, i usually am hua?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'm gonna go shave. Maybe get a haircut tomorrow.&lt;br /&gt;My laptop's placement is making my wrists cut into the edge of it, there are all these red lines all over my wrists.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I expect the aging will be cold and mostly numb. Kind of like most of my time this summer, I'm alive all night, I hardly see the sun, and when I do, I sort of hate it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I love you.
