THE UNQUIET

Where can a dead man go?
A question with an answer only dead men know.
                          _ Nickel Creek  "When in Rome"



Shape without form, shade without color
paralyzed force, gesture without motion

Those who have crossed
with direct eye, to deaths other kingdom
Remember us- if at all-not as lost
violent souls, but only
As the hollow men...
                            -T S Eliot  "The Hollow Men"



I myself am Hell
nobody's here-
                              -Robert Lowell "Skunk Hour"


Into the dark night
Resignedly I go,
I am no so afraid of the dark night
As the friends I do not know
I do not fear the night above,
As I fear the friends below
                             - Stevie Smith  "Dirge"



Revenge proves its own Executioner
                             - John Ford,  The Broken Heart



And in my best behavior
I am really just like him
Look beneath the floorboards
For the secrets I have hid
                          -Sufjan Stevens  "John Wayne Gacy Jr."



And what I want to know is
how do you like your blue-eyed
boy, Mister death
                           -ee cummings
