so much for going to sleep early tonight

craziest day ever. 

"new monster avenue".

shadows on the broad lawn,
canopy of trees.
sometime after midnight,
the ground is gonna freeze.
birds in the frosty air,
what are they doing there?
greenhouse full of butcher's broom,
breezes at my back
some time before the sun comes up,
the earth is gonna crack.
I look down at my hands,
like they were mirrors.

fresh coffee at sunrise,
warm my lips against the cup.
been waiting such a long time now,
my number's finally coming up.

all the neighbors come on out
to their front porches,
waving torches.

find this song seems to hint at something much more.

moving into a strange new and delightful world. 
but not everyone is welcome.
not everything is welcome.

 the mountain goats are playing at the manning bar on april 13th.
meanwhile i'm catching the dirty projectors tomorrow. should be fun. acapella indie rock.
