Salt Bush

Warning! excessive swearing! Writer intoxicated! Warning!

I hate the salt bush. What the fuck is up with the fucking saltbush. I mean, it's a bush made of salt. I hate it so much. What a stupid plant. What a stupid fucking plant. What was God doing when he made the saltbush. What the fuck is wrong with you fuckingyou G-d. No, it wasn't our God thpough. Not father of Mack. No,it w ias fucking Sung Min. What a fucking bitch. I hate her so much. She is just a total bitch. Fuck you Sung Min for creating the salt bush. No wonder you got kicked out of the holy kingdom. Fucking up by creating the

salt biesh. That is the plural for bush by the way: biesh. It's kind of like you're saying it with a Michigan accent. Adrienne is from Michigan. Whenever I hear that song Miss. Michigan, I think of her. I used to dig Adrienne but now- not so much. It could be that she's going out with JP. The man with a receding hairline,

odd scar and he does up his front straps on his knapsack. Who the fuck does that? The only peple I know are Lisa and Eloise's dad. And they are both a bit off the wall. Especially Lisa. Lisa will call me up and be all like 'Hi.' and I'll know its her and then the most awkward conversations ever follow. Oh Lisa... Lisa isn't a total bitch though like sung min, creater of hte salt bush. Holy shit. What a shity plant. Something is completely fucked up with that plant and I hate it so much. What a stupid plant. Adrienne was the one who first poin

ted out salt bush. We were in the loft, ripping pages from the book Poets Between the Wars. A book of Canadian poets. Ripping pages of the glourious pages of the english language and shoving hem up Laura's pants. Adrienne found the poem that included the word salt bush and it was crazy. Then me and Eloise stared at eachother and both thought of Trudeau. Man I love Trudeau. He is just so ridiculously amazing. He took the government out of the bedroom and he swore in parliment and then said fuddle duddle is what he really said. Trudeau is like the opposite of a salt bush. He is som amazing like Liz D.B. She is fucking gorgeous. Holy shit, what a hottie. And she kows it. She knows that I am so far out of her league. I am. I love her though. So gorgeous. So smart. So wild. She knew what she was doing with her life. She is in complete control of some of the stupid things she does, and I have so much respect for that. What a brilliant girl. Hey a joke, What did th

e saltbush farmer say when he realizedhis Biech was growing carrots? Bi-yeah! Addienne made that onw up. What a good joke. Maybe I do still like her, but she is Dicken's Estella. Ice Queen/Bitch. I really like listening to Leonard Cohen while I'm stoned. He is a genius and I love him. I wrote down a line from one of his songs: 'All the lonely things my hads have done.'. What a smart man. Everything our hads do is out of loneliness. My hands wander because I'm lonely. I watch because I'm lonely. I have such good friends. Such good family. I love so much and they love so much and I feel lonely. Like the only bullrush on that creek. This feeling of not needing to be loved but needing s

omebody to love. I lust for love. Bi-yeah! Bi-no! What a lark! If it doesn't beat all. I don't know why Adrenne wrote that. I was probably with Eloise. We were so in sync. I almost asked Eloise to go to the formal next year but I didn't. We are so in tune though. I love Eloise and she loves me even more. But she has a boyfriend and
she loves a boyfriend. I had my chance, I passed it up and there are no regrets. I should;ve asked Adrieene when I had the chance. We did that mocie together and everything... oh that movie. I shall,,, fucking slat bush! I hate it so ridiculously much. Fuck you evil G-d Sung Min. YOu unholy total bitch! I will leave you with a very stonned poem"

Sipping from a shot glass
I guess the time
And laugh off the hours

Im sorry... I smoked too much.
Oh, Im totally putting my poem on the poetry thread. and maybe this under non fiction. Take my work seriously.

Wow. I didn't think I wrote that much... it took about three and a half minutes. Sorry for the typos and the ramblings about salt beish. I will ask her to the formal.

I was one who read & didn't comment as I figured this was relief-valve stuff. Thought maybe the last thing you'd want is somebody nit-picking over your angst.

Your comment about the amount you wrote makes me think I did the right thing.

My only comment is, Leonard Cohen would be rather dangerous to listen to when feeling down, wouldn't he? Since the '70's, the common description here has been, 'Leonard Cohen - music to slash your wrists by.'

Believe me, I am a ridiculously happy teenager. Nothing makes me happier than listening to Leonard Cohen. Tom Waits though... oh man.

Confusing and odd and crazy and anyone who can be happy and lonely at the sametime is also very lucky.
