alternately, something then nothing happened

Journal Entry: Mon Jun 23, 2008, 10:50 AM
finished About Nothing

it seems i've completed About Nothing [link] - a rather lengthy poem or collection of poems that i was struck with the desire to create about a year ago. i plan to write a forward for it in the interests of partial disclosure about what it's about (if "Nothing" isn't enough for you) and also a little about the process by which i was used (or i used?) to create it. also, i would like to try and have this published in book form. if anyone has any suggestions on the best way to go about trying to find a publisher for this type of literature, i would appreciate it.

of course, this is really just the beginning for me (as it shall always remain). i plan to write every moment i have time and inspiration and i'm very glad to have had the opportunity to listen and learn to all those who commented on this piece.

thanks.

shane

Look at a city's biggest building, and it will tell you that city\'s focus.
A holy place denotes a focus on the spiritual, a civic building: law and order, a business: money. Such is the declination of society.

Words can build you up,
Words can bring you down as well,
We both know the truth.

I lay down on the cold ground

I pray that something picks me up
