————————————————————————————-

the air full of suicide and mystery

the sticky kids in the smoke of the flashing lights

Desitny destroyed

the hunger of the times

the belief in all or nothing

dripping from their mouths

Bombs sing

Sink their teeth in the beauty of buildings

spray brick and teddy bears and useless love stories

the guitars start

the kids scream

the generation left to rot

amongst the carcass’d feast of their ancestry

Let the new world begin

Guantanamo your waterboarding heart out… wtf?+ bus riding poem

katecrash — Mon, 25 Apr 2011 13:35:35 +0000

hello out there in cyber land… moral of the following story… don’t hold your breath

OBAMA said Guantanamo … would be closed… and now?

umm… still open

And all these innocent people that they detained in Guantanamo because there was no screening process!~

FROM THE BBC

“But the files show that US military analysts considered only 220 of those ever detained at Guantanamo to be dangerous extremists.

They include Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, the alleged mastermind of the 9/11 attacks on the US, and Abd al-Rahim al-Nashiri, a Saudi accused of planning the 2000 bombing of the destroyer USS Cole in Yemen.

Another 380 detainees were deemed to be low-ranking guerrillas.

At least 150 people were revealed to be innocent Afghans or Pakistanis – including drivers, farmers and chefs – rounded up during intelligence gathering operations in the aftermath of 9/11.

The detainees were then held for years owing to mistaken identity or because they were in the wrong place at the wrong time, the memos say. In many cases, US commanders concluded there was “no reason recorded for transfer”.

Sami al-Hajj, a Sudanese cameraman for al-Jazeera, was held for six years, partly so he could be questioned about the Arabic news network
Abdul Badr Mannan, an author, was considered high risk, but his files states US officials may have been “misled” by the Pakistani security services
Mukhibullo Abdukarimovich Umarov, a Tajik man, was arrested in Karachi in 2002 and spent almost two years at Guantanamo before being released – his assessment says the reasons for detaining him were “undetermined”
Haji Faiz Mohammed was arrested in Afghanistan aged 70 and is described as having senile dementia – his file states there is “no reason on record” for being transferred
Naqib Ullah, aged about 14 when he was arrested, spent a year in Guantanamo but his file states he had been kidnapped by the Taliban and presented no threat to the US.”

today’s democracy now has a great interview on it..

but this lady behind me

aint havin’ it

and the man

right to my left

whispering about her, another lady, and him in the middle

shinning half closed eyes and slippery jaws

colt jolts as as as

& she throws him

on the street CRAAPHOOO

all 63 yrs with his

state prison walkman

& dirty clothes

stumbling pennies

on the sidewalk

the sun shivering in a diesel

haze

her bleached orange hair in waves

“I gotta job, whatta you got?”

flies from her glossy lips as she jumps and spits

screamin “you’re tooold to be a babby daddy!”

eyeballs vibrating

phwoo phwa phwee sho

points her finger @ the clock above

long and light black

straightens her shirt

& follows the trail

of trampled colorless passengers

some lost world on a war path, Crash plays saturday night free show, + Neil Finn poem

katecrash — Wed, 06 Apr 2011 18:00:33 +0000

What the heck? every time i hear the news it goes like this: regular americans are getting poorer and poorer, the rich are getting richer and don’t pay taxes, all our great public education and universities are making cuts, killing tons of civilians for what we call freedom and others call control of oil, but what really matters is our bra/dick size and how many shoes we own and pills we are on… it’s like we’re running so hard from what we are doing to the earth and each other… there is a limited time we can live like this before all the presents we keep opening blow up in our face… in the midst of all this crazy crazy, there is hope. whenever i get frustrated about the sexism and all that junk i think about the crap my mother had to put up with to play sports, go to school, become a business woman and it is better. even though there are some people who need to become more enlightened to the whole race thing, at least in l.a., almost all of my friends are dating someone outside of their race which shows progress… i wish we could kick start the progress on the environment quicker before we all get radiated.

wait…!!!!! things are getting tooooo serious… time for a kewt kitty picture..

PEANUT!!!

Thanks Nick Launay for taking me to see Neil Finn… a truly amazing show. his voice was phenomenal and his piano and guitar playing, exquisite … at the end john bryan came out and played piano while finn jammed out split ends tunes… ya gotta love a man who can make fun of his bad perm in the 80′s… he is truly hilarious!

———————————————————————————————————–

his voice

jagged silk & frog moans

vibrating the speakers

purple lights

a sea of people

the man at the piano

whales on it’s broken teeth

something so flawless

flawless misery

I’m not right

boots everywhere

the days have disappeared

and here I am

congregating with the past

white hair and crooked faces

smiling

singing along

swaying with all of us

some lost world on a war path

another beautiful night we don’t care

a man leading us into a fairy tale

of something that can never be again.

though when we see thousands die in a natural disaster it’s hard to think how many cry over one… but she was wonderful and helped save so many lives…

men ded diamonds

more than a pair of legs

more than the rouge on my lips

to taste death and beauty

with every day

to save the faces

of those a silence

wished to erase

my rocks, my jacked sons, my anthony’s

high on KOCH brothers, art world heist, and don’t u wish ur wallet looked like this

katecrash — Wed, 23 Mar 2011 01:00:44 +0000

Hmmm…

So here we are thinking we are thinking for ourselves when someone points out the little grassroots meetings and seminars are being put on by billionaire Koch Brothers who fund the tea party and the Wisconsin Union Busting mission and Scott Walker… It’s so easy to fool us hard working Americans into thinking that corporations are on our side…

yes yes yes, to make america a 3rd world country, to make us serfs, let’s make sure only the rich can afford health and education, that all the arts are funded solely by banking corporations like rockefeller guggenheim brode…

all i can suggest is, like with anything, whether it be religion or politics or katy perry, do your research on where the funding is coming from, what their literature says, and compare… is their inequality built in and are people making a lot of money off the backs of the 99% of us who aren’t rich like that… don’t u wish your girlfriend was hot like this?

days disappear to nights

nights, fogs of longing

for a pen & a dream

for colors

for a world changed to be

that potential

that purest thing

but here we are

armed with credit cards

soiled hearts

& hazy memory

the oasis of love

somewhere on the other side of this machine gun

that childhood dance in the snow

the roll of the waves

over every sad face

running with the wind

arms outstretched

humanity

cutting off our own limbs

for a piece of imaginary

some paper

some drug

a name

my aunt has cancer

like everybody else’s aunt or parent

oh, but if it weren’t for the laughter

nuclear artists

katecrash — Tue, 22 Mar 2011 02:15:26 +0000

as a person who loves to rock n roll

get dressed crazy

and be arty

i often find it hard to navigate my artistic desires

and the overwhelming sadness of the destruction of our planet

i love japan and am saddened to these wonderful people suffering so much

at the same time i am aware that many nuclear reactors in america are having sever issues. we as artists must educate ourselves and the people who listen to us. nuclear energy is dangerous. right now, the same company from japan that is responsible for the leaking power plant is in negotiations to help fund another plant in south texas. alternative energy is a must!

friday’s episode of democracy now is amazing and explains a lot.

if you don’t listen to this show you may consider starting if you want to be more informed about what’s happening on our planet from the non corporate perspective… meaning the rest of us

Hit So Hard the Documentary, Last Night In Austin, Poem ++++ secrets

katecrash — Mon, 21 Mar 2011 22:14:12 +0000

After 2 days straight in a car from AUSTIN to LA

after nights of crashing on strangers floors

being flea bitten

unwillingly hot boxed

dirtied by chi hua hua pee

days wandering through bands lifelines and screams and dirty dirty bass beats

i am back!!!
HOLLYWOOD I LOVE YOU!!!

THE BEST SXSW thing I saw… well the Fader party was pretty off the hook, los impostros from Guadalajara, JAMES BLAKE RAWKED MY KITTY KAT SOX!!! but really the coolest things were all the strangers that have now become friends from all over the world… loved my hitch hiked ride with Aussie band Art Vs Science

and the sick car rides with the amazing dj fun of New Berlin who introduced me to Witch House and other amazing electronic kicks while roaming in his Saturn…

I suggest seeing Hit So Hard a documentary on Patty Schemel the drummer from Hole AMAAAAZING! My friend Eric sent me to it and I cried and really feel this is a strong piece of art…

thanks to spirit hoods for being such great fans and gifting me a nasty rabbit hood

poem from my last night in Austin

Wandering the city
Overstuffed with strangers
Wonder.
Black hearts
green buses
dirty hair and sunglasses
Lights shoot angles up through the black
Twinkling eyes
I’m trying to remember every shape
Smell
Beggar
I want to know what it is to be the stone under my feet
The mystery inbetween
All things I dream

On the stage
In the screaming sun
Boys with daddy issues whine
Into their cans and tin hearts
Kids rip their clothes
Blow their nose
Ripped panty hopes
The endless nights and wonder
Will I ever make it
Will life remain a slumber
Me holding a pin to a balloon
A question to the thunder
The wind blows
My guitar quivers
All 15 of them r screaming
Blue. black. yellow
Feel the bass rumble
Rubble bones
I look into them
Look
Look
The set is over

Pack up
Go home

SPAM AWAKENING

My hqair may smell of b urnt spam
The room tindered with that cat flame and dragon tatooed couples weed smoke
The couch may curve in my back
Somewhere in the middle of america
A beat up back yard unraked for centuries
The pitbulls in the neighbors yard screaming murder with laughter
The ditched child seats rusted and crying
A dust devil swirls up
I open all the windows in my hosts house
After awaking to their hot box n burnt breakfast
Their dog running around my feet
Beats in my head
The phone rings
I reach
My inked hands tremble
My twenties screech
My mudded out shoes squeek
My blue eyes reek
Of too much fun and tradjedy
The phone gets louder
Vibrated harder
Sings
Sing
Its some other future calling

WRITHING FLIES

Black doves and swaying trees
Broken windows
The texas breeze
Little spiders yellow. And bold
Tripped out duchess’s of the trailer underground
Sing and beat trash can lids and rugs
Dust flies
Flies writhe
Smiles of my toothless lover slither through my mind
And the grasses
Where I lay
Watching the clouds spin away

White tree blossoms rain

PRETTY IN PAIN, PRETTY IS ME

Playing pretty in pain
The chihuahua bites his ass
The days r sunny in grey
I whip out my hot pink lipstick
Hoping to make my day
Wild in pink
Wild n free
Jump in the tv
Soap opera dream
Neighbors cackle
Daddys war drum beats
Dead Mamas bad cooking
The dream the dream
A way out and up
A way in hot pink
Pretty in pain
Pretty is me
