Friday & Saturday / Sushi & Art / Salem, MA & Dover, NH
New EP’s out today. Get it here.
April 1st & feeling < foolish;
I’m drawing ghouls on unlined paper,
stacking paperclips,
& counting my breaths.
It’s more therapeutic nonsense.
I have no WISDOM to impart.
I have NO GOOD ideas but NONSENSE
clogging my vas deferens and
PAKT into my pinky toes like cottage cheese in condoms.
Waiter there’s no poison in this kool aid.
Waiter there’s a poison in my outlook.
Waiter. Did I ask--(NO!) DID I ASK TO LEARN YER NAME?!
No BRAINS left in this little headamine...
so THIS’ll BE the DAY that I---DIE, OR!
if today’s not good for you I could reschedule...
I fuck the law
& the law cums. [repeat (ad nauseum)]
…& the law MAKES NO EYE CONTACT
just a kicka the hoof & a squeal.
Kendrick wants his mule & forty acres.
Kanye pre-YEEZUS needs a getaway.
Jigga is giggling on Letterman &
I’m with him
on youtube.
I’m not with you tonight, Walt Whitman––
There are self-help books on my nightstand
beside the astroglide, ashtray, gameboy,
flu medicine, coffee mugs, doctor’s bills,
& dental floss.
If anyone needs me tell em not to––
I’ll be in bed.
Amanda Beland (seen here taking trashy press photos) beautifully documents the Dog Thoughts recording process on here blog Spiral Bound. Dog Thoughts comes out in 1 week! Pre-order it here.

This is a song we abandoned. I was proud of my procreation lines, but it didn’t translate into very rocking music.
How could anyone describes how it feels to be a creator? Besides your folks, and other folks who zip up together their DNA to make the meat of a mind and put the bones in a smile.
Works for us! http://independentclauses.com/tag/caroline-mauck/
