I was sewing on a saturday morning.
I put the pedal to the floor.
I’d pinned together my costume
and listened to the engine whirr.

my house was empty, I had lots of work ahead,
my friend cathy would be be over some time.
six months I’ve been procrastinating about this
a mix of optimism and whines

I am going to cosplay this this year if it kills me.
I am going to cosplay this this year if it kills me.

I watched anime late into night
I’m thirty three years old-
tore up my hands cutting craft foam
I think my soul has been sold

Then Cathy showed up, but we goofed off
talking about the costumes we’re gonna to do
shooting shit, trading gifs
we barely touched the sewing machine.

I am going to cosplay this this year if it kills me.
I am going to cosplay this this year if it kills me.

I went back to the fabric store
I could feel ambiton inside of me,
Burn
God, the look that’s on my mother’s face
when she came home to this giant mess

I finished the seams the night before I left
My back screaming as I straightened up.
It turned out as good as I could hope for.
though my wig hasn’t come in yet

I’m just wearing a t-shirt to con next year!

I am going to cosplay this this year if it kills me.
I am going to cosplay this this year if it kills me.

Horror of Glam Rock- ‘Children of Tomorrow’ song.

perpugilliam:

Last weekend I saw the final out-of-town preview of Big Fish, the new Andrew Lippa musical based on the movie/book of the same name, starring Norbert Leo Butz, Kate Baldwin, and Bobby Steggert. It’s in need of a lot of work, but this, “Fight the Dragons” (performed by Norbert), was one of my favorite songs (though it’s in completely the wrong place in the show, but that’s another topic for another day).

Gaga vs. Journey - Just Don’t Stop Believing

This hasn’t been on my dash in ages.

not bad at all

About a week ago, I put an album called “The Fifty Darkest Pieces of Classical Music” into my iTunes rotation.

I had no idea that would be my best decision in all of April. About once an hour, everything I do suddenly becomes epic.

God’s Gonna Cut You Down || A southern gothic mix

The Lord’s gonna come for your first born son
His hair’s on fire and his heart is burning
So go to the river where the water runs
Wash him deep where the tides are turning

This isn’t no land of comfort. The earth is tired, and she heaves her rattling breaths through the dry grass. Dust hangs like a shroud on your shoulders and settles on the scuff of your shoes. Here, there’s religion in the cracked pages of Scripture and in the rim of a whiskey bottle. Our father who art in Heaven, He’s got a harsh heart. There’s bad blood in the bible; sins are not forgiven here, they are only absolved once the dues are paid. Here, grizzled men exhale their souls in cigarette smoke as they idle on the porch. Their venom is inside of slow smiles, as smooth as molasses. Here, women are sunken-eyed; they’ve got cleavers tied to their apron strings, vengeful and weary, faces hewn out of scrap iron. Nothing really lives here. The hoot owl whistles in the old cemeteries by dusk, but the real burial grounds are elsewhere- men find their graves at the bottom of the river, at the deepest hour of night. May they rest in sin indeed.

Don’t you lift him, let him drown alive
The good Lord speaks like a rolling thunder
Let that fever make the water rise
And let the river run dry

{LISTEN HERE}

No, really, you should listen.

So it’s a song that got covered, and then the cover got remixed… I should listen to more electro-swing. I’m sure that’s a genre.
