Dear Leweeja, Thank you for mentioning Elliott Smith. I hadn;t heard of him before. I listened to his songs and liked them very much.

Thank you David "hal" Foster Wallace. Guess who else has a saliva problem?

Elliott Smith too. How do you overcome such a state of depression? Amazing talents that gifted the world.

SUICIDE ALLEYFor Nick Drake, Sylvia Plath and David Foster WallaceI'm out back on Suicide Alleywasting my time with the moon;I'm thinking about a tall tallyOf tagged toes who left at high noon.

They kicked the ego can into the wallafter their genius works spilled forth,forgetting the thrill and enthrallof their gift in the game; its worth. The shadow I make: me as mournerin this alley where nothing is livinghunkers down with me in a cornerto howl at the black dogs, deliv'ringtheir bared teeth to chomp down and chew upthe notion of the God who made them all goodness, truth, beauty--they threw uptheir arms in despair and it splayed them.

I'm leaving this lane with the opusthey threw in the can when they left.I refuse to believe that it's hopelessso'll stay out of this alley of death.So long geniuses; I know it is toughto not linger out here with this garbage head stuffSo long sweet artists; you'd had enough.I'm not blaming--too alone is too rough.I'll take your lesson into my heart like a bell to chime with the nowI won't think of you that moment you fellbut when you rose up with your muse; took your bow.
