starting my blog... i am doing it. junk and genius, a contradiction? it's up to you.
just hung up on the phone with a friend who's a bit junk and genius and is having some problems for this reason. i love her. is it possible for something with no contradictions to be fascinating? or interesting? i live in a perpetual struggle between opposing emotions, ideas and feelings. sometimes i miss peace. sometimes i think that this is what makes me special.
here's a poem celebrating the contradictions of what was once the most appealing place in the world:
HOLLYWOOD. HOLLYWOOD BABYLON. i come from there.
hollywood, hollywood...
fabulous holywood...
celluloid babylon
glorious, glamorous...
city delirious,
frivolous, serious,
bold and ambitious,
and vicious and glamorous.
drama - a city full,
tragic and pitiful...
bunk, junk and genius
amazingly blended...
tawdry, tremendous,
absurd, stupendous;
shoddy and cheap,
and astonishingly splendid...
hollywood!!
