    Haha, ya they weren't recent were they, I changed the password. I didn't notice because it's the email I use for msn, but I don't actually use that email for correspondence by email.

    Love those lines. . .Here are some more from "Experience": the first few sentences of which I've go memorized:

    "There are moods in which we court suffering, in the hope that here, at least, we shall find reality, sharp peaks and edges of truth. But it turns out to be scene-painting and counterfeit. The only thing grief has taught me, is to know how shallow it is. That, like all the rest, plays about the surface, and never introduces me into the reality"

    Talk about some downer stuff. . .we almost never see Emerson like this. But maybe that's why I find this essay so moving.

    Hey Daniel! I just saw on a thread that you enjoy Emerson's essay "Experience" -- that essay, to me, is by far his best work. And it's a shame that it's not anthologized as much as some of his other work.

    hey, saw you were online, so I had to write
    long time no talk
    how's it been?
  9. View Conversation
    Haha, maybe. Just keep on top of your work and I'm sure you'll make it, but remember to take the occasional break.

    Hey, hey Daniel. Haven't talked to you in a while. So, I thought I'd tell you to take it easy, since you keep mentioning being busy in post .

To whomever it may concern

It seems that I have been gone for a long time and in my laziness I wrote off a short and ambiguous post upon my return. Maybe it was just a little bit of smirky cleverness that I was so brief, it also had to do with my being busy that day. Well here's an explanation of where I've been:

Nowhere. My computer merely crashed on me Halloween night and I had to wait a few months before I could buy one. In the mean time I utilized my school's computer which blocked every-other website including

The mark of past tense verb
Tis' a scar that affects our life-line verse
And even the trite small-talk under blue skies.

When everything is under-sea
Painted with a white landscape
Of non-time, non-memory
Those moments we forget
Become the futures neglect.

So silent a lake-pond spring is
In the summer it is almost rancid
But in winter it is frozen deep into tedium
And atoms hibernate in stillness.

Interview and Reading List

by DanielBenoit on 08-30-2010 at 11:57 PM
Hello out there. Just figured I would say hello to the blogging world out there as I have been absent for quite some time.

I finally got a call back from a store I applied to and I'm getting an interview tomorrow. I'm nervous but confident, and most of all, I am looking forward to the $$

As of late I've been listening to quite a lot of music. Classical mostly. I have come across a truly transcendent epiphany in discovering the great Reinissance composer Gesualdo, thanks

Untitled Haiku

by DanielBenoit on 08-30-2010 at 10:08 PM
Late summer wheezing
A bike on a garden path
Sun soaked sweaty back.

Got a call for a
Job interview; tomorrow
Got hit by a car.

Hair needs some trimming.
For my job, my back, my days
Autumn better bless.
