Drawing Parallelity

Twittering away my positivity
scanning the globe for commonalities
while fighting my own negativity
realizing it wasn’t me
it was parallelity…
Words. Sometimes they get mistranslated in transit.
I can almost “hear” them.
There’s a strange order to them that has to get out.
I swear that these words have come to me as if by artistic osmosis! Or, perhaps the words came to me during my last journey on a transcendental plane. (I’m a frequent flyer)
Maybe the words found me as I walked through my local co-op gauntlet of shame…wearing my slave labor made Walmart jeans?
16 Dollars yo!
Slowly – painfully, it becomes obvious that the sound and the flow aren’t really mine…they’re Soundgarden’s.
Drawing Parallelity
it’s a lot like Drawing Flies.
A whole lot.
So um – never mind.
Sitting here like uninvited company
Wallowing in my own obscenities
I share a cigarette with negativity
Sitting here like wet ashes
With x’s in my eyes and drawing flies
– Cornell/Cameron, Soundgarden
