interview


full frontal female

“so, you have over 400 post on your blog with over 30,000 views from almost every country in the world, how do you feel about the negative comments about your lifestyle?”

“i prefer to be perceived that way. i wouldn’t want someone to think they could attain artistic claim by emulating me. being self-destructive doesn’t make me an artist, it makes me an idiot.”

 

fff

“what do you think people should be?”

 

sd

“it doesn’t matter what i think, be yourself, if you must imitate, imitate taylor swift.”

 

fff

“why are you self-destructive?”

 

sd

“because i’m deeply profound; next question.”

 

fff

“have you ever considered rehab?”

 

sd

“next question.”

 

fff

“do you think you should be doing anything different?”

 

sd

“did you not prepare for this interview by reading my book the dark streets of decay?”

 

fff

“what do you think this interview should be about?”

 

sd

“my poetry. thematically i am just self-expressing, not proselytizing. afterward my only concern is was it a good poem. i’m not focused on content, just context. unfortunately everyone else seems to only care about what is said, not how it was said and artistically i find no common ground.”

 

fff

“how does that make you feel?”

 

sd

“most of my poetry is inspired by peoples’ reaction to my poetry, hence the underlying fuck you running through my poems.”

 

fff

“so it does matter to you what other people think?”

 

sd

“yeah, i’m complex like that.”

 

fff

“do you ever think you could find a common ground?”

 

sd

“when i was in therapy addressing these issues of isolation my therapist told me that given who i am and the expectations of what other people value that i am essentially screwed. that i will always be the lone wolf lingering in the darkness peering at the campers around their fire. the perceived threat of me would never garner an invite nor would i feel comfortable sitting on one of their logs.”

 

fff

“did your therapist believe in god?’

 

sd

“that’s an amazingly stupid question.”

 

(silence)

 

sd

“yeah, i know, i’m an asshole, next question.”

 

fff

“how do you hope to be remembered?”

 

sd

“nihilism has voided my mind of expectation and created a character that just doesn’t care. all i know is this need to write for no other purpose then a personal need to write. the less i write the more i perish.”

 

fff

“what did you have for breakfast?”

 

sd

“coffee, a marijuana edible, a cigarette and a twenty-four ounce can of beer.”

 

fff

“i should have started with that question.”

 

sd

“brat.”

 

fff

“what do you really want?”

 

sd

“to have a conversation with someone who is capable of coalescing around my consciousness.”

 

fff

“anything else?”

 

sd

“to be the worst me i can be and still have arms around me, embracing until i feel i will never falter in the forever.”

 

fff

“don’t you think you expect too much?”

 

sd

“don’t we all?”
