I’m vacillating between listening purely to The Arcade Fire<\/b> and what new music I’ve found this week. It’s a difficult decision, Funeral<\/a> being a powerfully difficult album to put down. <\/p>\n

The lighthouse is fractured, a flash of light explaining very strange pieces of personal mythology. blink<\/i> The first time I was seduced by a woman. blink<\/i> Going there with the band the next day. blink<\/i> Balancing rocks with my missing lover<\/a>, my best friend, the only person who’d met him last time. My eyes cannot be covered by my hands to shut it out. blink<\/i> I don’t want to. blink<\/i> It’s a strange place to think about only because I’m not used to it. I forget it exists. blink<\/i> A picnic, they talked about making a music video on a sailboat for a song about whales. blink<\/i> A different lover, but the same best friend. Fire. blink<\/i> oh Nikki’s hair blink<\/i> oh how he used to have a temper blink<\/i> the painter blink<\/i> the violent drinker blink<\/i> different people, the time I almost threw myself in. GLITTER WARNING FLASH<\/i>. One of the only lights you can accurately see across the inlet. The memories creeping into the fabric of the trees and cliffs and water. FLASH<\/i>. It’s Vancouver, this particular quality of light remembering. The sign on the road. The parking lot hemmed by forest. Running the path. Running the cliff. The water looks like expensive gun-metal silk shimmering in a radio play. Everyone sits and raises the children of conversation in front of the ocean. It’s only human, but how I wish I could swim. <\/p>\n
