Many World Kaizo Mario Lvl 1

Check out this video.

http://msm.grumpybumpers.com/?p=20

It is a run of the first level of the Kaizo Rom-Hack of Super Mario World. He overlays all of his attempts into the same video, so you can see all the deaths, but not waste any time! I wish he did the whole game like this.

Sweere Wedding Haiku (September 13, 2008)

love-locked in a gaze
joyous couple holding hands
no hole left untouched

5:59am (August 16, 2008)

sun already up
awake I lie restlessly
classical music


writing on empty
no muses left in my life
—just a snoring dog


with the rising sun
light seeps into my house
every orifice

SNES Cravings (July 24, 2008)

Sometimes I get the craving to play certain SNES games. I remember how much fun I had beating the last boss. Even though I am fully equipped and capable of satiating these cravings and actually playing the game. I usually go download a speed-run of the game, and watch it. Today, I craved Turtles in time.

Only one turtle
Eight hundred dead foot soldiers
Splinter would be proud

Only one turtle
Eight hundred dead foot soldiers
Shredder grinds his teeth
