I still write but don't feel the need to post it here anymore. If you are a writer and serious about your talent then you should know that DA for writers died around 2003. No offense to all of you that love this place but DA has become a cancer on the writing scence, where once it was an amazing place to meet up and coming writers it now has turned into a make-uped myspace with stricter, facist written rules.

but to this, this will be the last thing I will ever post on my account. over the next month I slowly will be deleteing my pieces (as many of them are being considered for publish)and disintegrating this account if DA doesn't beat me to the punch and bans me.

Honestly I've only been on here maybe 5 times in the past 6 months mainly when I'm drunk and want to check on a few of you, but I see a terrible disturbing trend, everytime I come back around I see the dreaded ! or someone who hasn't posted in 5 months.

Although i think DA has done amazing things for the art/print community, they have abandoned the writing community, the easy and simple answer is there is no profit margin in hosting .txt files.


and we wonder why a nationwide publishing of poetry by a single writer hasn't made money since the 80s, because chugging your english language and upchucking it no longer perks the interest of lazy eyes.

ON AT LEAST ONE POSTIVIE NOTE:
If I have added you as a friend at some point or another it's because i respect your art or some other element of your soul. i might even consider restarting an anonymous account not letting anyone know except probably two of you, if you've ever gone by BOBBI OR WILBY OR FAUX its you two, even though it seems you alls interests are dwindling with this pseudo art site. kinda what to see what its like to be a fresh face here for a couple months.





when i first came to this site I was 15 (publishing under a friends account) at that time I couldn't even drive a car.

Now I'm 22, pushing 23, I have a car, apartment, job, pay my bills and stir up more trouble than I could imagine to keep myself out of the scary state of adulthood.


I'm an adult now and it's scary as hell to see that the 15 year old version of me was more free and inspired than I am now with all I have experienced since then.


I guess that's all I have for this rant. I love you all, and if you really want to dedicate your life to art then by all means sacrafice all in your life to do so, but for the first time in my life I've realized it's not for me and by no means should DA be a crutch.




Again I love you all:

1)Make one person smile a day
2)Always buy someone who looks sad at the bar a beer
3)Never bet horses
4)Always wear condoms and take your one nightstands to breakfast/lunch the next day.


That's all I have, sorry for all the typos which I'm sure there is a million of, but I wanted to get all out that I could before I forgot it.


NAKED LUNCH SIGNING OFF.
