Sinister: I don't see what anyone else could see in anyone else
by ArtsyDeco＠aol.com 05 Sep '01

05 Sep '01

I'll admit that it felt kind of good in a horrible way to feel the tears rolling down my cheeks with my eyes closed, knowing that the other people could see, but would never do or say anything. I did try not to cry, but in the end maybe I was being selfish, wanting people to see. I shouldn't have put the lucksmiths on my headphones. But that was my fault. I put them on anyway. I kept forcing myself to remember the week. Remember down to the memory of the smallest touch. The panic of thinking I would never get there. Trying my damndest not to have to use an airplane bathroom. About an hour after the time on the ticket, I was falling over my luggage in Gatwick. Peter looked more wonderful than ever and his dad had a friendly smile. He took my luggage and left Peter and I to wander about London. The parks in London are lovely, and the picnics even lovelier. I met nice people like BenApps and Rob and Sam Walton vaguely reminded me of Oscar the grouch. The train ride home was very long, then the taxi driver seemed intent on putting the fear of death into us. No matter because once I arrived at the Carter home all was loveliness from that point until the end of my stay. It was the most comfortable week of my life. Unfortunate that it had to end with the airport misshaps that Peter related. So I'm at college now and it's the second day of classes. My freshman year. I'm thinking that the two shocks to my system have sort of cancelled eachother out. So thanks to all the very nice people at the picnic for being very nice, especially BenApps because he is verry nice and is going to send me music. And Kenchu because he agreed to adopt me. Adoptive daddy, I want a Zebra. Will you buy me one? Love and functional public transport, Kara Jean* yeah er, no content exactly. Oh, I'm listening to TBWTAS now. I hadn't in a while. I like it so. +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: I worship the quicksand you walk on
by Laura Llew 05 Sep '01

05 Sep '01

Should I post? Should I be good? Astound Sinister with my revealing blazer and faustus hood? Not talk of artsy movies but of cemeteries Name check Will Porter and all the preliminaries Tell about parkway picnics and rash roadtrips To only flush and fret over my freudian slips When I introduce myself to the list -prosaic prose, grieving over grammar, strangling spellcheck - should I pretend to be twee - liking "Hello Kitty" being sure not to mention The Pixies? How else to feel other than I am, falling in love with dead poets who always turn up gay.. O how terrible it must be for a young girl writing to strangers and the strangers thinking We've never seen her before! Who is this Llew? After choking down the words they think "To meet all of my Ll needs, what would she have to do?" My hokey, I can't forget THE BAND! Le Pastie De La Bourgeoisie This song being my biography is easy to admit to But how do I confess to me & Dirty Dream #2? And the foxes! Pine, ginger - all in the snow Completing epics on, who in the world?, Lloyd Cole? It takes more than THAT to make sense of the day Does it really take more than milk to get rid of the taste? So much to do! Like sneaking into Honey's castle late at night to cover her tea cups with 1920 Norwegian books like pasting Dorothy Parker postage stamps all over the Community Chest (Community Chest being St. Lucy?) (Naughty indeed.) Pretending to be a kitty and kissing Maddie's ankles Stumbling to the Boy with the Thorn in his Ley, fumbling over what to say Arguing with Dave that he doesn't really exist Grabbing Arik, while whirling "There are unfavorable omens in the sky! Leave New York Behind! Remember our September with the butterflies?" And what happens when a boy does come - breamsing from the sea I look down, blush, wondering if they even really know me Oh, when the millkmaid hides just leave her a note in the bottle Penguin dust, bring me penguin dust, I want penguin dust! ...And a show in my bedroom... O what would that be like! Surely I'd give B&S my bookcase for a stage Where Isobel could croon of her bottled up rage And in my bed I would snuggle up with... Struan! How did he get there?!?! No... I'll never be that kind of girl No venue; no quiet cuddle Only living with my family still a Reichian sister screeching over a channel change - Spolied Brat! Only worse at the shop with nose running brats in love with Pokemon Their mothers uncaring, all toothless and dry haired like those hag masses of the 18th century telling their children to forget books and just watch TV Teary eyed grandmothers telling me how their sons are finally fertile Leaving me trying not stare to see how tight the man's pants are Impossible to lie back and dream of Bedroom shows, ghost appearances No! I should not post! I should never post! But - imagine if I were a beautiful sophisticated woman tall and pale wearing an elegant black dress and long black gloves holding a cigarette holder in one hand and a highball in the other flying to London or Edinburgh for business trips though living high up in a penthouse with a huge window from which I could see all of New York and even farther on clearer days No, I can't imagine myself writing from that pleasant dream I would have parties to give and boys to charm I'll content myself with Tin Tin socks and hopeless crushes Not thinking about love... O but what about love? Should I mention love? It's not that I am incapable of love (Though I am a Spinistereen with Cupid in the dungeon) It's just that I see love as odd as drinking Ribena I always thought I didn't want to end up as my mother - married with a family; with nothing but endless work - However when I thought I was rid of her, there was the mirror "I want to meet the person who came across manure in a field, saw mushrooms and thought to put it in their mouth." Or telling my father, "Just keep porking it down, fat boy." I couldn't ever really be part of a couple, could I? There's maybe a boy for me now but he's too well read for me And not even librarians don't like me and - but there's got to be somebody! What if I'm 60 years old and still spending 15 minutes clocking posts? Alone in a car with the only words of love coming from a scratched tape Couldn't a mix tape be as well as love? But I should be post I should be good Astounding Sinister with my revealing blazer and faustus hood. Laura Llew "meeting all of your Laura Llew needs since 1977" I figured if Gregory Corso could still Jack Kerouac's girlfriend, then I could steal and twist his words. Of all the poets who I wished were dead upon reading their works - he wasn't one of them. Sadly, he didn't take my thoughts into account (as is typical with boys) and passed away earlier this year. _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com/intl.asp +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: a warning here: there are no jokes here. no fun here. just stuff about a picnic in edinburgh here. this is not a regular post here.
by Richard Gillanders 05 Sep '01

05 Sep '01

okay. we need some: okay. now more than ever. so. okay. here is the new and FINAL outline [it's an outline] for the edinburgh picnic. I am allowed room to tweak. if necessary. tweaking isn't a bad thing. it's just another way of saying refining. so. it was bowling. now it isn't. it was botanic gardens. very briefly. now it isn't. it was almost the meadows. but it's not. it's princes street gardens. reasoning [don't read this if you like to just have faith in other peoples' judgement]: there's grass. benches too. if you like those. there's a sheltering part up towards princes street. there's, like, a big monument and some big galleries and a big castle 'n' that around. there are nice pubs up on rose street. all of this requires no bussing and not a fantastical amount of walking. but walking's good. princes street gardens. you can eat. you can drink. you can smoke. you can talk. you can have dogs. these are requirements. the waverley station at two p.m. on saturday the fifteenth of september, two thousand and one. in case that's confusing: WHERE: the bit outside whsmith's in waverley station. WHEN: 2 p.m., 15/09/2001. I'm less confused now. meet us there and then. or. phone one of the numbers at the end of this post and ask the person who answers to tell you where the bloody hell they are. and they should. do that. how you will find people in this waverley: look for a group of mildly twee looking people shying away from each other and from everyone else. and stand next to them. and shy away from them. and everyone else. we will proceed to an as yet undecided spot in the gardens. I'll decide soon. and you'll know in advance. and we'll sit down. probably. most of us. and eat the food we brought and drink the drink we brought and smoke the cigarettes we brought and talk up the thoughts we brought and pet the dog we brought. ahem. if it rains. we'll head up to the sheltering and finish our food and drinks and stuff. or just head straight to a pub. a specific pub hasn't been selected yet. I'll do that too. so. I know of quite a few people who have said they will be in attendance. there are some coming from other countries! even! well. yeah. so. but. you don't need to know anyone else. you can just show up. and people will do their best to make you feel welcome. and we'll have fun. right? hopefully it'll be a VERY NICE DAY. yeah. I suppose that's it. for now. any questions. please do e-mail me. I get quite lonely. okay, richard.

Sinister: drei jagermeister und eine bratwurst bitte
by 'Baby face' Bambino 05 Sep '01

05 Sep '01

Hi Sinisterians, I've just returned from a holiday in central Europe. Really enjoyed my visit to Prague. It's very beautiful. One night I lay exhausted in my hostel dormitory bed, having spent most of the day walking around the city's enormous National Gallery. I was just relaxing and listening to the Badly drawn boy album (The Hour Of Bewilderbeast) that my sister had kindly leant me. As I lay there, a moth fluttered in through the open window and started moving towards the light. I was expecting the usual pitiful scenario where the moth tries to go to the light, and despite burning it's little wings on the bulb, desparately tries again and again. However the hostel light consisted of several fluorescent bulbs with a protective cover, so the moth was able to quite happily flutter accross and sit inverted on the light. To my weary eyes, it even looked like he danced a little celebratory jig after touching down. The accompanyment of this delightful spectacle with such beautiful music filled me with happiness. Hope y'all don't mind me sharing the moment with you.

Last week hefner got a going over and this week tompaulin. Are starsailor really the future ??? The strokes are good fun yes! but we need bands, good ones and lots of them. It's bloody frustrating.

Sinister: Moving on up
by ameliacates＠att.net 05 Sep '01

Hello all! i can't tell you my excitement. That after all these several weeks of reading, i am get the chance to finally send out a post of my own. A bit about myself. I'm Amelia. I live in Dallas Texas but only until Friday. I will be moving five short hours off to college then. I will be a freshman at lovely Hendrix College. THere i will begin my studies in english and whatever else i fancy. I am bit weary about the move but i keep assuring myself it will go off smashingly...Here i cross my fingers. If anyone has any advice or stories or general words of wisdom for me, i would glady recieve them. I have so much enjoyed reading all the charming posts. I really rather loved the runaway thread. Such a wonderful thing to wake up to in the morning. Such excitement. well, i'm off.

Sinister: Los Angeles Posse!
by Delaware9＠aol.com 05 Sep '01

Hi guys, thanks to those who wrote me. It looks as though Greyhound will be our chariot of choice. I just wanted to know how many Sinisterines are going to the LA show tomorrow, and if there are any meet-ups planned? Lesley J and I are going to be there in full effect. Please email me in the next couple of hours if you have any plans to meet up with anyone else, or otherwise, look for us loitering outside the theater! Just to say hi! Well prolly be in possession of the rad B/S stickers we are going to make! What we look like: 2 girls, early 20s, one long hair, one short, one blond(ish) hair, one light brown hair, one with an army-ish satchel, the other with a godawful yellow thing with a rainbow on the side, shell prolly be wearing a ployester skirt and I could be wearing some sea green flares, but Im not sure abt that. This is starting to sound like a porno ad, isnt it? So ill stop with the scintillating descriptions and just hope to see y'all there! Whee!!
