Andrea Niceschwander's Blurbs |
About me:
My friend Melanie says my brain is fancy, she also says I have a voice like a phone sex operator.
I decay. this is me.
I love my doggie, Trotsky:
"If you really want to hear about it, the first thing you'll probably want to know is where I was born, and what my lousy childhood was like, and how my parents were occupied and all before they had me, and all that David Copperfield kind of crap, but I don't feel like going into it, if you want to know the truth" -J. D. Salinger
"Everybody's a mad scientist, and life is their lab. We're all trying to experiment to find a way to live, to solve problems, to fend off madness and chaos."-Cronenberg
"The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious. It is the source of all true art and science." -Albert Einstein
"Is man merely a mistake of God's? Or God merely a mistake of man's?" -Friedrich Nietzsche
Salmon
In this shallow creek
they flop and writhe forward as the dead
float back toward them. Oh, I know
what I should say: fierce burning in the body
as her eggs burst free, milky cloud
of sperm as he quickens them. I should stand
on the bridge with my camera,
frame the white froth of rapids where one
arcs up for an instant in its final grace.
But I have to go down among
the rocks the glacier left
and squat at the edge of the water
where a stinking pile of them lies,
where one crow balances and sinks
its beak into a gelid eye.
I have to study the small holes
gouged into their skin, their useless gills,
their gowns of black flies. I can't
make them sing. I want to,
but all they do is open
their mouths a little wider
so the water pours in
until I feel like I'm drowning.
On the bridge the tour bus waits
and someone waves, and calls down
It's time, and the current keeps lifting
dirt from the bottom to cover the eggs.
Kim Addonizio
"Forget your personal tragedy. We are all bitched from the start and you especially have to be hurt like hell before you can write seriously. But when you get the damned hurt, use it-don't cheat with it."
-Ernest Hemingway

I like zebras:

"The great exemplars all led simple lives. Inspiring though they be, no one follows in their footsteps. Only a rare few have even attempted to do so. Yet now and then, even today, a unique individual does break away, breaks free of the treadmill, as it were, and demonstrates that it is possible, even in this sad world, to lead one's own life." -Henry Miller
"But, as much as it hurts-look at it. Burn it into your eyes. Because it may not be the same tomorrow. And you'll never get the moment back." -Warren Ellis
I love Happy Tree Friends:

Who I'd like to meet:
and...
anyone who thinks for themselves, makes art, makes music, makes me wet, or just makes sense. anyone who is not a douche bag. The world is fucked. so people that take all the random fuckedness of life and turn it into something productive instead of just being fucked themselves. And...
