like the Sentinelese I cast you out with spears and rock
like Job I keep on walking as far as I can go

if I hang my head low,
speaking to nobody but the...

dust from the fire - may 17, 2011
being home makes me think this is fitting since it’s exactly the same as when I wrote this shitty thing.
elizabeth taylor was looking me straight in the eye
from the magazine cut out i had of her
with a nice quote resting on the bottom
you might as well live
there were letters cut and arranged on my desk
spelling out curses and reasons to live

FEBRUARY ALBUM WRITING MONTH
mattbearrones:
So, there’s this website called FAWM.ORG which challenges you to write 14 songs during the month of February. I participated last year and got about half way done. I’m doing it again this year and I’m one song in! For all you musicians out there, I suggest you join FAWM and get creative.
Here’s my account!
