GOD Sex 03:33
The pretty phat little grooves we stomped, clapped, and called out of us had their own ears to listen to us as the fire held its own heart to watch us beat. Melodies flaunted and fluttered, dreams of lovely scarce worlds, dreams of better and worse burned away forever as our binary frictions rustled the leaves and our one eternal mind gave way to northern flashes of light that emerged high above us. I wooed her around with my hand on the back of her head, stared deep into her, beyond eyes, laid her down in our majestic lullaby kitchen, kissed her fully with every life I had ever lived, and beheld the blessings of awakening. I believed in her more than I ever believed in anything. I do not know where exactly we went while making love but it was definitely somewhere beyond theories of time and space, far beyond some skeptical dude in a living room saying molecularly speaking that is impossible. It was pure love where everything was possible and impossible at the same time with no possibility to ever not happen. I fucked her God as she turned early morning orange in the dark evening sky, our body blankets wrapped warm in each other’s beings together inside of us. The fire gazed through her brown eyes tender. We drank each other’s lips naked in a midnight campfire picnic fury of beauty and romance. The sonnet that was the night revealed our mind’s passionate depth in each bead of sweat differently satisfying our deaths sure to come. Our minds were motionless with a million senses circling through our love rushing, through our blushing faces kissing majestically young ancient in love blooming fragility. We made perfect, precious love while volcanoes ruptured hot magma across the Pacific Rings of Fire, while blue moons shot through intergalactic space.... excerpt from "The Upper Middle Class Suburban White Boy Enlightened Guru Blues" a novel written by Justin Blackburn to read contact Justin at justin@justinblackburnlovesyou.com

We All Take It Up The Ass We all take it up the ass. Each one of us eats shit. We all smoke crack. Each one of us sucks dick. We all live in a mansion. Each one of us drives a new sports car. We all fuck our sisters. Each one of us is a goddamn movie star. We all feel happy when we smile. Each one of us wants to fuck each other. We all look good when we are dolled up. Each one of us has a goddamn mother. No one is better than you. Each one of us gets to feel. You are no better than no one. Neither one of us is real. - Justin Blackburn from a collection of poetry entitled "I Met Your God" for this book contact Justin at justin@justinblackburnlovesyou.com

Ridiculous Booze Why do you drink? Why are you such an asshole? Why do you find it so hard to grow up? Why does everything about living scare you? Why don’t you pray anymore? When was the last time you remember being truly happy? Why do you never sleep anymore? Can love still live here, even with all your brokenness? I don’t know if this poem can go on any longer, until these mad stumbling questions find suitable answers. It’s things they’re all dying to know. And you have to give it to them, or you will never rest among the bronze gods. You will never roam the halls of the fame game, you’ll never be on the level of those great literary giants, without really putting yourself out there. So give them everything you’ve got until the very end. And even in death, become a ghost and never leave the hearts you so miraculously transformed. - Ian Morris

Lose weight feel good about being ugly all the time Do drugs feel good about being alive in my mind Hate myself feel good about people who judge me inside Love someone else I don’t know how but we are all still gonna die Grow up feel good about going to dinner and eating outside Try hard feel good about place in the sky Throw up feel good about being a sinner on the side Still not sure if for me Christ really died. Get real feel good about the meds you were proscribed Get a job feel good about your high school life Hopefully she’ll marry me and we’ll have a special night And at my funeral Ben Bridwell will smile with my pride Justin Blackburn - Vocals, Lyrics Ian Morris - Beats,Keys,Guitar

There are no warriors left. Nothing but tired souls with glazed over eyes, Silver and milky. And I know we are in trouble, Because this is happening more consistently. It happened again last night. I got a call from a friend; He was starved and separated from our kind. He wasn’t himself. This man had an anthem heart With loud speakers on each shoulder, An elaborate iron headdress, And the suitable frame to carry that weight. But here tonight, My ears could only make out one sound: It was the sound of crumbling. A sound that only added to The pile of ruins that he was becoming. His words were dark and strangled: Statements like “I don’t know what I’m doing anymore” Or, “I think I’ll go get a real job.” So it was hard not to feel like We were losing another one to their side. It’s the sane and responsible Vs. dreams and the committed. -Ian Morris

Ian Morris
--------------------
has experienced more in his life than his 35 years might suggest. A poet, artist and musician, Ian has used his exciting and diverse life experiences to inspire and influence his work. Born on August 4, 1977, in Morgantown, WV, Ian is a true Renaissance Man. From touring the country while performing both solo and with his band, Y/our Sparkle Heart to founding and running his own non-profit arts business, Ian brings passion and enthusiasm to everything he does.

After developing an interest in music at an early age from his late musician father, Al Morris, Ian’s musical influences grew rapidly, ranging from Sigur Ros to The Beatles. His personal musical projects have spanned across genres, including electronic, indie rock and world music. He has written at least five poetry books, focusing on themes of love, spirituality, overcoming odds and death – essentially, what it means to be human. Ian’s poetry could be described as a mix between traditional poets like Rumi and Hafiz and more contemporary writers like Jim Morrison and Charles Bukowski. His abstract, non-representational artwork has been inspired by artists such as Jean-Michel Basquiat and Jackson Pollock, among others.

While Ian has accomplished much with his own body of work, he has done just as much for other artists and musicians as well. From acting as tour manager for his band to recording music for an assortment of musicians, Ian has enjoyed helping artists improve their craft and advancing the careers of others. Founding Homemade Genius, a non profit music and art organization, in 2005, the business has successfully operated for years in upstate South Carolina, offering music and art lessons, concerts, art shows and camps and after school programs for children. Homemade Genius encourages creativity and expression for all people.
