the patron saint of thieves
but I can’t help my- self
I’ve been reading a lot about thieves
and now I think every ‘Christmas’ I’ll dress up as Saint Nicholas

Idle Talk: Thoughts On Going Into The...
Money is hard to come by. Sometimes I want it, and sometimes I don’t want to sacrifice too much of my freedom to get it. Sometimes I feel perfectly fine about my financial state; and other times, if you listen really closely, you can hear a tiny guitar playing a slow reprise of Aloe Blacc’s ‘I Need A Dollar’, dedicated to me.

Random Thoughts: The Why Is It So Damn Hot...

I would kill for a basement bar like this one, but in my head I imagine lots of stories instead, books on dozens of shelves and short stories and quotes scrawled upon the walls, just stories, stories everywhere, so if you’re still sober you can enjoy one, and if you’re drunk by now you...

just a sip’s enough, pouring into me like hot light and tormenting every inch of me
in ways I could more than get used to being tormented.
just a sip’s enough to be ablaze for hours; just a sip’s enough

just a sip’s enough to scramble all my thoughts
til my addled mind could only imagine the sensation
of one sip...

How you know you’re inhaling too much smog from The Yin Factory:
someone in a facebook group upending a conversation about LGBT anti-discrimination legislation by quoting Bible verses, so you give him a Qu’ran verse burn.
That was not nice. Bad Brandon. Bad.
