 <title>Primitive</title>
 <link>http://www.oasisjournals.com/2008/12/primitive</link>
 <description>&lt;!--paging_filter--&gt;&lt;p&gt;Some people use the word primitive&lt;br /&gt;
but that reminds me of a song&lt;br /&gt;
by a band my dad likes&lt;br /&gt;
  and I do not.&lt;br /&gt;
This is unfortunate because primitive would be a good word&lt;br /&gt;
for what I feel when I stand in the cold&lt;br /&gt;
and try to take in the blackness out there&lt;br /&gt;
which is impossible really, because&lt;br /&gt;
there are stars&lt;br /&gt;
and I never did get the Tao Te Ching anyway&lt;/p&gt;

 <title>lazy days are the nicest days. . . sometimes</title>
 <link>http://www.oasisjournals.com/2008/12/lazy-days-are-the-nicest-days-sometimes</link>
 <description>&lt;!--paging_filter--&gt;&lt;p&gt;I said something dumb today, and my friend justified it by saying I was 2% blonde.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This is news to me.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Apparently, I have unexplainable blonde highlights in the hair just behind my ears.  The rest is orange.  I am surprised I haven’t noticed this before.&lt;/p&gt;

 <title>Thanksgiving</title>
 <link>http://www.oasisjournals.com/2008/11/thanksgiving-1</link>
 <description>&lt;!--paging_filter--&gt;&lt;p&gt;The picture of the two of them so young&lt;br /&gt;
in a place they’ve since forgotten&lt;br /&gt;
still makes sense even though there is something missing from his blood&lt;br /&gt;
and we have to clean our hands every time we touch the spoons.&lt;br /&gt;
When a story in the paper is contained in a living room&lt;br /&gt;
with cats under the table and cherries in a blue bowl,&lt;br /&gt;
it’s easy to smile about other things&lt;br /&gt;
and wear bright sweaters&lt;/p&gt;

 <title>ARGH.</title>
 <link>http://www.oasisjournals.com/2008/11/argh</link>
 <description>&lt;!--paging_filter--&gt;&lt;p&gt;I am not pleased that when I woke up this morning, I was both a) all cozy in bed with Trey and b) ending a dream in which I tripped Marie’s boyfriend, accidentally-on-purpose, because I was mad at him as always for dating her and “keeping her straight.”&lt;/p&gt;

 <link>http://www.oasisjournals.com/2008/11/okaaaaay</link>
 <description>&lt;!--paging_filter--&gt;&lt;p&gt;This is interesting.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;People from the Westborough Baptist Church are flying in from Kansas to protest at our school’s production of “The Laramine Projects,” a series of monologues put on by the GSA relating to the Matthew Shepard tragedy.  I think this is absolutely ridiculous.  I mean, really? &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Their website is godhatesfags.com.  I am not even kidding.&lt;/p&gt;

 <title>Lesson</title>
 <link>http://www.oasisjournals.com/2008/09/lesson</link>
 <description>&lt;!--paging_filter--&gt;&lt;p&gt;First your jacket.&lt;br /&gt;
More like a flowing dress it brushed your ankles&lt;br /&gt;
amazing me that I could feel the softness from so far away.&lt;br /&gt;
Then the footsteps:&lt;br /&gt;
that a living soul was inside the sketch of you.&lt;br /&gt;
At last the iridescent freckles sprinkled, glittering,&lt;br /&gt;
on the curve of your face under your eyes&lt;br /&gt;
whose color I could not quite catch.&lt;/p&gt;

 <title>The impossible has come back to haunt me.</title>
 <link>http://www.oasisjournals.com/2008/08/the-impossible-has-come-back-to-haunt-me</link>
 <description>&lt;!--paging_filter--&gt;&lt;p&gt;My high school sweetheart.  Even after all those years of sitting and waiting and wishing I don’t know what to do.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I never knew it then.  At best the truth was just sad fantasies, back then.  I had no idea it was real.  Everything I wished for – her – I was so close to having, and I had no idea.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;* Cue the irony. *&lt;/p&gt;
