(no subject)

I am getting a big fat lot of nothing done today. Slept in, ate a bagel, foiled three pieces of glass, told myself I'd read a book for as long as it took to eat some cookies, got thoroughly absorbed in said book, and have just now lurched through the last few pages after about 3h. Was a little disappointed in the ending, which got too far over the top to really be believable, but the villain was deeply villainous and very spooky, so overall it was pretty satisfying.

I should go to the studio but instead I think I will go for a walk.

Because it's spookily expressive of a recent realization

All the fear has left me now
I'm not frightened anymore
It's my heart that pounds beneath my flesh
It's my mouth that pushes out this breath

And if I shed a tear I won't cage it
I won't fear love
And if I feel a rage I won't deny it
I won't fear love

Companion to our demons
They will dance, and we will play
With chairs, candles, and cloth
Making darkness in the day
It will be easy to look in or out
Upstream or down without a thought

And if I shed a tear I won't cage it
I won't fear love
And if I feel a rage I won't deny it
I won't fear love

Peace in the struggle
To find peace
Comfort on the way
To comfort

And if I shed a tear I won't cage it
I won't fear love
And if I feel a rage I won't deny it
I won't fear love
I won't fear love
I won't fear love
