the simplicity is beautiful

merely minutes after the results of the election were in
sirens car horns & voices
were all screaming in unison
the area in which i live
erupted with people
stopping traffic
& flooding the street
the amount of love & unity to go around was amazing
i hope it was all for good reason

certain situations lately have not been in my favor
& someone everyday since last thursday
has told me im awkward or made fun of my voice
like ive never heard either before

& proof of how fucked up i am rite now mentally
im giving away
give up the ghost "were down til were underground"
& gaslight anthem "the 59 sound"
either im desperate or just a fucking moron

hot water music "bleeder"
lawrence arms "like a record player"

oh my god, the hope and joy in people's eyes tuesday night was so incredible... standing in line, for hours, with people who'd never voted before because they had no reason to. so so much change and hope has come to everyone, it feels like. philadelphia carried obama to win PA, and we celebrated in the streets with everyone else

and oh yeah, you're totally awkward. miss ya!
