glass of gin and a folding chair
sitting out by the wading pool, chlorine blue
rush of wind passing over me
restless nights
chin up, cheer up
my love’s another kind

tumblr: thanks so much for deleting my first post of this

my mom
i will not lie when i say we have had rough times this year
i dont know how you put up with me at times
but you have made me a calm and understanding and overall better person
let it be has never been so significant
thank you

my brother
thank you for laughing at my failures and protecting me and being the best brother i could ever ask for
i miss you

ashley
this year i had the best summer of my life, 99.9% because of you
since the school year has started we haven’t talked like we used to
that needs to change
even though we met in the most odd way
even though an outsider may consider us polar opposites based on certain things
even though we are snobby assholes to each other
you are my best friend and my long distance sister and my home away from home during those rare times that i do visit
i appreciate you more than words and i love you so much
i dont want to lose you

emily
i will be honest when i say that i have been so moody with you
the way we met was both hilarious and incredibly coincidental and our friendship developed so quickly
but i realize i am doing a sucky job of holding up my end of it and i am truly sorry for the mistakes i have made
i trust you so much and i know that this friendship can be so much better
i hope you arent getting sick of me because i will miss us goofing off at random times of the day and making people think we are stoned or something
thank you for changing my life and being as awkward, even more so if possible, as i am
i love you so much

meysell
thank you for opening me up to the flaming lips as corny as that sounds
despite the fact that we live 1,000+ miles apart you have had a huge impact on me
i told you i have trust issues
thank you for being a person i trust 120% and for not judging me for the truly weird person that i am

david portner, noah lennox, brian weitz, josh dibb
thank you for making me laugh and cry and scream and smile and for both providing and soundtracking some of the best moments of my life

body
sorry for mistreating you and not appreciating you like i probably should

heart
im trying

that “jason dibbs” is an inside joke

i should probably change that before animal collective fans are offended

FEUDALISM: You have two cows. Your lord takes some of the milk.

PURE SOCIALISM: You have two cows. The government takes them and puts them in a barn with everyone else’s cows. You have to take care of all of the cows. The government gives you as much milk as you need.

BUREAUCRATIC SOCIALISM: You have two cows. The government takes them and put them in a barn with everyone else’s cows. They are cared for by ex-chicken farmers. You have to take care of the chickens the government took from the chicken farmers. The government gives you as much milk and eggs as the regulations say you need.

FASCISM: You have two cows. The government takes both, hires you to take care of them and sells you the milk.

PURE COMMUNISM: You have two cows. Your neighbors help you take care of them, and you all share the milk.

RUSSIAN COMMUNISM: You have two cows. You have to take care of them, but the government takes all the milk.

CAMBODIAN COMMUNISM: You have two cows. The government takes both of them and shoots you.

DICTATORSHIP: You have two cows. The government takes both and drafts you.

PURE DEMOCRACY: You have two cows. Your neighbors decide who gets the milk.

REPRESENTATIVE DEMOCRACY: You have two cows. Your neighbors pick someone to tell you who gets the milk.

BUREAUCRACY: You have two cows. At first the government regulates what you can feed them and when you can milk them. Then it pays you not to milk them. Then it takes both, shoots one, milks the other and pours the milk down the drain. Then it requires you to fill out forms accounting for the missing cows.

PURE ANARCHY: You have two cows. Either you sell the milk at a fair price or your neighbors try to take the cows and kill you.

LIBERTARIAN/ANARCHO-CAPITALISM: You have two cows. You sell one and buy a bull.

SURREALISM: You have two giraffes. The government requires you to take harmonica lessons.

i’ll go unknown by torpedo or crohn’s
only those evil live to see
their own likeness in stone

i want a pretty dress

this criminal walked into my room
he asked me
why do you live this way
think of all you would have

meysell:

Comfort, comfort
Why do you run for it?
Why can’t you keep doing
What you’re supposed to do?

Why can’t I reach you?
When I most need you
You’re at the beach and
I’m in some strange bed

Comfort, comfort
Why do you run for it?
Why can’t you keep doing
What you’re supposed to do?

Why do you have to go?
Why do you have to go?
I’m in the dark unknown
And you’re staying home
