12:50 AM - black widow

i am stalking
up above you
as you slowly
fall into my webs

i'm descending
down upon your
eyes that see me
as a dreamers dream

you are so oblivious
in my web so devious
as i slowly move in for the kill

i am stealth
your lust blinds you
moving closer
bound inside my gaze

your heart is a riot
drunk with danger
you begin to tremble
giving in to the craze

you are so delirious
in my web so devious
as i'm slowly moving for the kill

just close your eyes
beautiful dreams await you
just give in
just give in to me

i am aching
you are unraveling
tightly trapped
your eyes in silent screams

i lick my lips
and drop the curtain
i am a demon
8 spindly legs of death

you are so delirious
in my web so devious
as i slowly move in for the kill

this
this is it
this is the last minute
tick tick tick
this
this is it
these are the last few seconds
this
this is it
this is the last..
CHOMP

manifesto pesto 626 the rust on the strands of time
is braided in second hand
your rippled face is shouting out
all my abuses
ive got boulder arms
and bolder legs

no one can  get me down off this railing
i've fallen out of favor with the gods
the beats are beat out beating off
on the side of the road in their broken down tour bus.

smashing guitars and smashing pumpkins in smashing suits and smashing alarm clocks

when the wells run dry
the fabrics come off quicker
and inch by inch the girl is stripped down to nothing

60,000 wings beating
and they want to pick them off one by one

picasso eyes and raven claws
condensation forms on the lips

im a mother, a harlot, a flapper, a savior, a trainwreck, a shame, a sister, a lover, a hooker, a creator, a destroyer, a spinster, a housewife, a slut, a baker, a suffragete..

you can frame me up and stick pins in
you can scratch every last one of my records

the best music radio site EVER

go get hooked on it!!

yikes.
girls...handle your scandal.
don't take nude photos!! and if you do.. expect that they will come back to haunt you.
i've been on the bad end of that as many of us have...
so i'm trying to give you some good advice. NEVER let a boy take compromising photos of you.
respect yourself enough to deny.
it makes me sad when i hear of it happening to yet another person. :(
that's a horrible thing to do to someone and i wouldnt want to be on the recieving end of that karma.
people who do horrible things to other people always pay for it in the end.

when i was in paris once on tour i found out that a nude 'art' photo of mine had leaked out from the photographer. it was only supposed to be a reference photo for a painting... but.. the photographer did an amazing job and added it to their portfolio.. so.. i found out about this because it was all over forums online and people were saying all kinds of things and being very cruel..i was very upset. so i know how it feels. i was sitting all night long in panic. my hotel room faced the eiffel tower and i should have been enjoying that... but i just sat there staring at it all night panicking.

so..
LEARN FROM OTHER PEOPLE'S NIGHTMARES
dont do it!


xx

im really curious what you think happens..
xx

i thought this would be an interesting topic.
it seems like people have different definitions.. and i get lots of messages about this subject usually. love is dangerous!
what do you consider cheating to be?
xx

im answering questions on lindastrawberry.com
come ask me something! xoxo

mmm. i have a sugar craving today. COOKIE MONSTER
coconut cream pie! chocolate. yummmm

what's your favorite dessert?

i wrote two lonnnnggg blogs on my site lindastrawberry.com that i want you guys to read.
the first is audrey and me visiting this amazing guy named leonard that painted an entire mountain with beautiful messages.
there's a video up on a blog called Salvation Mountain
and there's a really long blog about audrey and me going to Pittsburg to the Warhol Museum where we had a film in it for Factory Girls.
xoxoxoxoxoooxoxo

why is everyone so obsessed!!!!!!!
im 5 7 and i weigh 140.. in WHAT distorted way of thinking is that fat?
should i starve myself? puke? for a retarded standard held in a society that is unhealthfully overweight and whose models are getting thinner and thinner and thinner and thinner til soon they'll have to have organs failing in order make the grade?
GAAAAAH.
i go from 137 to 147 depending on the time of the month. WHO CARES
im healthy. i eat. i exercise. i dont crash diet, over exercise and i try to keep a healthy outlook.
that's fucking amazing considering the lows ive had in the past with eating disorders..
im really proud to say im four years recovered.
but..
it still hurts to hear when someone says im fat or ugly or whatever. im human! words hurt!
people who say that you the internet isnt real and we should all laugh it off or say something back are as bad as the abusers themselves.
i just had to vent!
its been a big subject this week in our house.  it really disturbs me. why are people so hateful?
i want to do all i can do to try to put the OPPOSITE message out..
certain people just make me soo mad!
everyone worries about what they look like.. everyone is way too hard on themselves.

I have been so busy. bzz bzz.

im going to be relaunching lindastrawberry.com very soon in the next few weeks and i plan on making this the summer of art with my personal and factory girls art. we are premiering our factory girls project the day glenn kaino opens his exhibit at the Warhol Museum on May 3rd.
We are a part of a new polaroid exhibit. I’m so excited. I’m honored to be included in the new factory personalities exhibit. :) we shot it today and glenn used Andy’s own polaroid camera.
I am so lucky right now to be surrounded with talented motivated people.
The air is electric around me. I can’t even sleep. I have such bad insomnia from excitement that im breaking out in a rash like the one i got in belgium when i was on tour. eek. must sleep!

tour is going to be very special. Audrey and I have made a special tshirt for it that we will have up very soon. We are only doing one print of it but when its done i will tell you wear you can order it. :)

oh.. i had a blast doing natalia fabia’s hooker pageant. haha. it was so funny.. the girl who won was ’miss one dolla no holla’ she fried an egg while smoking and doing burlesque for her talent. hahahaha.

zzzzzzzzzzzzz

Rant. Monday 24. march.







im making a personal goal to try to get in the best shape of my life over the next six weeksi just want to. im feeling blah. everything that i want to do depends on me feeling great emotionally and physically and i feel kind of blah. so im gonna fix it. there’s no point in sitting around feeling sorry for myself. ;) im in an cafe with internet. the modem at home bit the dust. but we are moving in a week.. there’s alot of stress right now. but its all good stress. there’s
no time for me to get excited with anything. which is pissing me off. i
need to find something to feel crazy about for a week. haha. like bosch
was to me last week. but i think everythings gonna feel like it has the pause button on til we are done with the move. life is in boxes. and getting dusted off out of storage.. im
doing a fun fake pageant thing with the artist natalia fabia next
monday. and im petrified of the one piece american apparel (barf) thing
we are all wearing. but its really funny. so ill live. its just those
damn clothes leave nothing to the imagination. so we have to use our
imaginations to make them work i guess. but its really fun to try to
figure out what to wear for the rest.. i dont know if you are a fan of
natalia fabia’s art (yet) but she is great. www.myspace.com/nataliafabiai
was just thinking... with myspace and youtube we all try to look glam
in our pictures and have our "picture angles" down but i think it would
be a laugh to have an ugliest picture ever contest. you know when you
are with your friends making faces and laughing? the ugliest face
ever.. ugliest angle. im in if you are in. we could put them on one of
my galleries and have a laugh with each other. life. is so violent. we have to laugh. if
you think about the fact that we are these miniature organisms on this
itsy bitsy teenie tiny rock in an ever expanding endless universe it
makes the fact that we stress out over the tiniest things so comical.
we have to laugh! its all so hillarious. im stressing out over a lime
green bodysuit. gah. hahahahah. oh! but it is terrifying that i just saw that TWO people were murdered in my neighborhood this week. YIKES. *bites nails we are leaving but smash is staying. but.. me
and julie used to live in the WORST neighborhood... it was horrible.
there were CRACK addicts sleeping on my back lawn and a shoot out. yep.
good ole hell A. the other day i was reading a really good book
and wishing that i could be summed up like a character description..
like "bob smithereen - book collector, mother is deaf, is neurotic
about the order of his dishes in the cupboard, picks his nose on the
subway. etc. " you know what i mean? i feel like id need a different
character description for every hour of every day. anyway. this coffee is delicious. someone
was complaining on a site the other day about how everyone blogs these
days and how there’s no mystery anymore. no big superstars. etc. but i
couldnt disagree more with that way of thinking. i think its way
ballsier to write out REALITY. or your own version of it. but it has
started this universal dialogue. people writing poetry and writing
stuff they wouldnt have otherwise written or said or let out. i think
its important to our social psyche that we can change from hero worship
to celebrating people that we know are fallible and human but are
trying to do something great. because we’ve become so narcissistic and
self obsessed. so i think as a society we need to believe that we can
achieve great things again. not famous for bullshit. famous for acting
out. or acting a fool. or being "controversial" because really...
what’s really controversial anymore these days? not much. look at
all the shit people say to each other all over this site and youtube?
now that people can hide behind fake profiles and usernames they’ve
grown tiny balls to spew their fear everywhere. and media and companies
are trying to build upon controversy and that just falls apart so fast.
i hope things get so saturated and static that people start really
being attracted to talented people again. i think right now in our
culture we arent necessarily interested in people we think we can’t
beat. does that make sense? we are flocking to reality shows because i
think its something we can see ourselves doing too. everyone wants to
be famous. everyone wants to be the person in lights. but being that
person in lights is nothing like you’d imagine. its not that exciting.
its all smoke and lights. it doesnt solve anything. it doesnt change
anything. in fact if you are miserable now being famous makes you MUCH
MUCH more miserable. so i see it all around me. our priorities are
backwards. so i hope as a society we get more focused on setting our
standards high again. hmm.good morning. haha. oh ya.
and porn and nudity are everywhere so arent we all like big deal so
what yet? i am. yawn. another girl moves to l.a. to be an ’actress’ and
a year later is taking it all off for some site. borrrinnggg. porn is
boring. drugs are boring. self destruction is mind numbly boring.
breaking guitars and wearing leather pants is boring. we need to
recreate exciting. where are our angry smart young people. why arent we
breaking shit because of the war. or because our world is dying. or
because the rich bankers of the world are manipulating us like chess
pieces... we are asleep. sleepwalking into a recession. sleepwalking
into oblivion. how frustrating. god forbid we miss an episode of our
favorite "reality" tv show. hahahhaha. a;lsdjf;alsdkjf gah! what a
strange world. i wish i could write a song about how i feel about
the iraq war but it makes me so sick i cant even articulate it. what a
clusterfuck! oh. haha. the cover of The Onion is so funny. its
BLACK MAN ASKS NATION FOR ’change’//subheadline - Seen begging for
change in nearly every major city. .. or something like that. witty
social satyr. ;) i dont know who to vote for. i lean towards
hillary. but obama won major points with me over the last couple of
weeks. what did you guys think of that race speech? i was impressed by
it. oh politics make my head hurt in the morning. dont they
just make you feel so powerless? there’s just no way to know how much
is the truth and how much is political hot air. there are alot of angry
scared people in this country. im only afraid they’ll vote for mccain.
we arent the strongest country in the world anymore.. we cant afford to
vote in the wrong person. our dollar is weak. i wish i could get paid in euros too like that supermodel petra. haha. i love america for alot of reasons. and its always going to be home but i wish i lived in barcelona. perhaps. did
you have a nice easter? ashley is so sweet she went and made us an
easter basket in the morning with green grass and chocolate and plastic
eggs. awww. and we drank pink mimosas. delicious! and i went to
the jetrag dollar sale where they put all these old clothes out in
piles on tarps and everything is a dollar. i found some great fabrics
that i can decontruct. some hillarious dresses. on looked like a
comforter attached to a velvet turtleneck.. HAHA. love it. im reading ’choke’ by palahniuk (i stole it from ashley) his writing is really fun to read. he’s so mental. well i best be on with my day. i am going to make a bunch of things for online. are you on facebook? www.facebook.com/people/Linda_Strawberry/add me do you have ilike on facebook?apps.facebook.com/ilike/artist/Linda+Strawberryadd me! myspace.com/strawberryare you on lastfm.comhttp://www.last.fm/music/Linda+Strawberryadd me! are you on buzznetlindastrawberry.buzznet.comadd meare you on imeem?

i put a free song up on my myspace player.   www.myspace.com/strawberry
GO GET IT.

i made it one day when i was feeling very dark.. i felt so full of passion that i had an electric charge on my skin buzzing... (queen bee baby bzz bzz)
especially when i did the noise guitar on the bridge.
so from my black tar heart here’s my song (demo... but sometimes those are the best)

YOU CANT CHANGE A MAN (TAR)

One time i got caught by your words
i believed that it Was it Wasn’t
Two timing son of a bitch
you can hide but you cant outrun it..
Three times the charm - let you back in
ya, i swear to God i tried it..
For I believed that could change a man
No one’s EVER done it.

Oh. I know what you are.
I got covered in your BLACK TAR
Oh, oh.. know what you are
I AM GOING TO BREAK YOUR HEART

Don’t look so shocked
you’re the one who’s gone and made it all so damn hard
you’re full of talk but your words and actions don’t match up, Honey
you DONE ME WRONG..
so don’t act like I’m the one who’s doing all the damage, DAMN IT
YOU’RE JUST A CON...
and I’m never gonna fall for your tricks again...

Oh. I KNOW what you are.
I got covered in your BLACK TAR
Oh, oh.. know what you are
I AM GOING TO BREAK YOUR HEART

TO BREAK YOUR HEART
TO BREAK YOUR HEART
TO BREAK YOUR HEART
TO BREAK YOUR HEART



play loud. ;)
