Small Zombies
Weep and Wither
I've tried to ween myself off of gawker - but I spotted this link to Models Bowling for Tsunami Relief, which evidently isn’t a joke, and was reminded of this piece from writing static.“Having been sucked out to sea by an enormous tidal wave, I have nothing to cling to but a two litre soft drink bottle, and nothing to eat but fall-away from the bodies of those around me, finding the idea of tearing open coconuts with my gums more than a little distasteful, as my teeth were smashed out of my mouth by the force of the water. I drift like this for some time in the open ocean, thinking, if only somebody could organise a cricket match in my honour.”Read it all ->
I'm convinced that Writing Static is home to some of the best writing available online; it’s a bracing shot of spleen – like a tmftml of the the soul.
