ideas

in listening to burial's 'untrue', which i of course do a lot, im always struck by the first words on the album, the 'inland empire' sample. makes me see think of something in the 'city of ember' sense, more post though and certainly darker. main character who's only job is to sell light. id like to write that story.

the last time i wrote something good on here was a while ago, i think. today is a day, as good as any, to change that. dylan is in town today, and thats a good thing. was talking with a good friend the other night and we reached a conclusion about him. he's the only poet that we could think of who has been able to defy, or maybe transcend genre labels. he's not a beat poet, a romantic, or a modernist. whatever. thats a cool thing. go bob. but of course any conclusions about dylan are subject to well, not be conclusions any longer.

i like my internship, granted its but 4 hours old. its a good fit. i love stories and storytellers. and old stuff. and new stuff.
