Writing, mood and inspiration

When it comes to poetry, I’m much more prolific when I’m feeling really down.

I’m pretty expressive when I’m feeling really happy too - usually lots of rambling about how love and stuff are amazing in a very free, organic and repetitive way.

This Futurama quotation holds significance for me; I might get a poem out of it after I’ve had some sleep… “I mean, being a robot’s great but we don’t have emotions and sometimes that makes me very sad.” Bender

I’m currently listening to the suicide tag on last.fm.

Mock The Week YouTube clips will help… Oh, I forgot, the patriarchy exists there too. Hm. Okay, time for some feminist comedy. (Although, grr at the idea that one’s cunt would be safer at home than out jogging late at night is perpetuating that myth about strangers in bushes… Oh no, even the supposedly feminist comedy is full of rape jokes. AAGH!)

Okay, I give up.

I hope I get some respite from institutional sexism in my flippin’ dreams.
