'Eulogy'

listening to::
stuff form the latest Five Iron Frenzy cd, Electric Boogaloo.
also::
neuch furiously typing his Am. Congress paper while simultaneously asking everyone he can find if they want to order a pizza

and now::
today
all the sources would agree
that the day of their death was a cold dark day
scuttled
ships have blocked the sea
and the pallid light of morning melts into an ashy gray
no one
understood a word they said
hailed them all as kings up upon a pedestal
their names
scribbled on a parchment piece
would sink like any ship listing fast from rupture hull
and goodbye to everything
sayonara everyone
they are tired
write the eulogy
and i saw them as they passed
it was like a millstone cast
far into the deep blue sea
i'm somewhat upset that my long-time favorite band is breaking up this year. at least they've got a tour and two cds left in them. i can't wait. if you are a fellow FIF fan, or if you read the opening page to the FIF website, you'll know what i'm talking about. i suppose i saw it coming on their last two albums. they were trying to change who they were, struggling to free themselves from their "blind following" and ...well, you can read about it. i don't need to explain.
anyway, back to work. neuch keeps asking me to get pizza, so i'm going to give in now.
sure enough. another $6 down the drain, probably. hmm...not down the drain...well, not right away, anyway. first i have to eat it. now that i think about it, Coffaro's (sp?) sounds great.

question::
what is my purpose?
answer::
?? the chief end of man, according to the Westminster Catechism--glorify God, and to enjoy him forever. other than that, i don't know what God has in store for me. this is "a question has been much on my mind in recent weeks," to steal a line from an episode of Monty Python's Flying Circus.
