[The Neoracle]

You pick up this working girl who's hooked on smack.  Who hussles and scores,  that's all I do, she says, บ for head, ฟ for half and half.  She says, 3 hits a day at ำ per, you say that's 7 tricks a day at least.  She says "sometimes I get lucky, one time this guy gives me a bill and a half just to eat me. Only time i ever came."  You figure you can save her.  

You sell your color TV.  It keeps her off the streets a whole day.  You hock your Typewritter for one jolt. Then your shot gun, your watch. A week later you say, "Look, I'm a little short."  But she says "No scratch no snatch. You say, "Look it's better to give. "  But she says, "Beat off, creep."  

One night they spot you on the street in your skivvies trying to sell your shoes.  You tell them who you are but they nail you. then she happens by, she says "Christ you look fucked, Hang tough," but you don't say anything.  You just think, "What a bum rap for a nice guy like me."

Life is fucked. Sorry to those optimists out there.  :(

My sig continues my thoughts.

Sheesh Neo...
Personal experience?
That really sucks. All I can say is: "Don't fuckin ever let them/it/whatever get to you." Easier said than done, I know, but trust me; It's the only way.

#### i know what you mean.

No, no personal experiece (well, not of the literal translation), but I know the feeling. And I think Jain fully understands the metaphor.  It's a lyric from a song, and before that is was a sample from a writer in the 70s.  I can look it up if you guys really want to know.

MMM..... Information, feed 'the Borg'....

[JainDough]

it's fucked if you've been on both sides of that. i hate i was that kindof person (being the void people fall into) even more so b/c i know how it feels for the one you've brought to your level, just to try and bring your own ass up, having experienced it with other people who's lives were blackholes...

[SlashRaid]

Man this thread is way beyond depressing for me. :cry:

[JainDough]

hmm, not sure my last post made any sense to anyone else...

"So you can make me cum; that doesn't make you jesus"

hope that clears it up.

[The Neoracle]

Made sense to me.

Slashy:  Me too, too bad it's my life.  :(

[JainDough]

just my personal opinion but everything is fluid, and the karmic wheel doesnt stop. i 've been in dark spots, sometimes they seem like the same ones over and over again, but the space between (even if it doesnt make up for it) puts them in a perspective such that theres nothing you can do other than accept the greater spastic jerkings of the universe and  hope you dont get hacked to pieces by an ax murder on your 32nd birthday. if all else fails; laugh and give up trying to force anything to happen. even if it sounds like screaming/crying/car crash noises, laugh.

and thats my advice. no, its not optimistic, yes its kinda strange but it makes my life a whole lot happier.

All I have to say is; Jain you're beyond your years.

Now I just need to find a sugar mama.

[sinewaveboy]

does anyone know where the "you meet this working girl who's hooked on smack" quote comes from ... I know it's been used on a record recently but I'm after the original source.  Suspicion is that it could be William Burroughs (references to smack, whores, typewriters and US dollars) or some obscure author from the 70s whose name escapes me right now ... any help would be gratefully received ...

[The Neoracle]

^^ I'll ask around. The whole thing is from a recording of an obscure writer from the 70's dunno his name, YET. ;)
