My ankle doesn’t seem to be broken, Qubit hasn’t bitten me, I have no intentions of having the site red and black forever, and Ryan isn’t running off with Loren…yet. Therefore, please forgive the horrible poetry :)</b></p>
<p><em>God, I hate the world. My ankle is turning so many lovely shades of rotting plum and bilious yellow that it’s next to certain it’s broken; the cat bit me on the face while I was lying on the couch in pain; and Ryan muttered something about Loren and thinking things over and went out for a long drive half an hour ago. I don’t have the energy to finish the fucking site overhaul, so live with it; it’s ugly and imperfect and human. Life is just a cruel joke, and the only thing that makes it feel worth living is poetry.</em></p>

twisting sisters in the night rending<br />
I hate you with a will<br />
that breaks in any breeze</font></p>
<font color="#cc0000">
<p>When will you come to me<br />
In the angry light-dying<br />
Crepuscule<br />
that I may feel your blood<br />
and know your day is gone</p>
<p>I hate you all<br />
except the hatelight self<br />
so brilliantburning sweet agonies<br />
of fleshturned flame.<br />
I bring you furies<br />
and my wristcupped reds<br />
o my hatredlove</p>
<p>drink deep<br />
and end you⁄me love⁄hate…<br />
end all</p></font>
