Schwartzman

 Schwartzman 

In times of need, don't feel any hesitation to watch a genre-defying comedy about an obsessive, passionate, too-bright too-passionate nerd who isn't confined within a passing or failing grade. I love Max Fischer, I often feel like him, stupidly in love with hobbies and human-nature with little care for a career fostered beneath it. Jason Schwartzman, (probably) my all-time favourite actor, delivers a performance of a perfectly stormy amalgam of teenage insecurity, desire, melancholy and disappointment. It leaves me to wonder if Max Fischer is a self portrait? (RUSHMORE).

As seen again, deep in desperation, Schwartzman is found solemnly playing “Where Do You Go To My Lovely” on his iPod, awaiting his casual companions’ arrival. Sometimes, all a boy needs is some flowers. Some Affection. (HOTEL CHEVALIER).

Thank you, Wes, thank you, Owen. You have mastered the depiction of conflicting teenage boyhood in cinema stunningly.

Flipping The Record

"Flipping The Record"

A thousand kisses deep, the needle is carving a deeper divots into streams of sound. Carefully placed, it journeys its way around the record, purring, filling out my mattress with music. It crackles and sputters; leaving me to wonder how deep the "Best Of" seventy-eight really lives. Do you think I can move my hand, do you think anybody would notice if I just flipped the record? 

How Beautiful Are You?

 “How Beautiful Are You?”

My skin has shed with the seasons 

like I’m taking off a retired old jacket

when I take off my clothes 

I feel like I’m opening like a flower 

especially if somebody is in front of me 

I’m pulling back the curtains

inviting someone inside

but when they say 

“how beautiful are you?” 

it means nothing to me

nothing, at all

nothing, anymore. 

I wrote this poem to encapsulate the feeling of being used, and the subsequent effects of it. Such a complicated feeling, but I think it is a good challenge to try and form words to describe it :) This poem was inspired by the other works of poetry that I’m reading, as well as music, of course. I’m used to putting myself in a creative bubble and not branching out to other kinds of poetry — just letting things flow and not thinking too hard about the logistics of it.

Dracula’s Son and His Leopard Print Bed (Photoshop)

Had some fun experimenting with some filtering on Photoshop... and also cutting my hair akin to Frank Iero's hair. XD.

 I've been feeling more inspired over the past few days to explore more artsy Photoshop tasks, such as incorporating aspects of my paintings into my photography. I've considered editing painting portraits, piecing them into photographs. 

Although I'm a bit shy about the more creative/experimental photography I do, I'm looking forward to reaching new prospects and getting comfortable sharing them 🎮𖦹👾

An Amiable Update from the Vampire Next Door

 A few things in the works, I’m reading a beautiful book of poetry written by the infamous Leonard Cohen — I plan to write an in depth review of my thoughts about it. Besides that, I’ll continue to write poetry and possibly even another album review :)
