The Costumer's Manifesto is written by Tara Maginnis, and proudly hosted by William Baker.

THE MANIFESTO IS MUTATING!  IT IS TURNING INTO A WIKI THAT CAN BECOME THE HIVE MIND OF ALL COSTUMERS, FINALLY LIVING UP TO IT'S SLOGAN: "COSTUMERS OF THE WORLD, UNITE!" YOU CAN HELP IN THIS PROCESS BY MOVING PAGES TO THE NEW SITE AT THECOSTUMERSMANIFESTO.COM, HELPING TO EDIT THE PAGES THAT ARE THERE ALREADY, AND ADDING YOUR OWN ORIGINAL INPUT.

No Vacancy

So strange to

almost

enjoy the slide

into a panic

or depression

it's odd

to be so calm

even a snap

in the

mind

recalls

better days

nostalgia

for times of golden joys

is common

dare I say it

normal

too normal

 

and even dull

who does not want

a return

to pleasure

but dreaming of pain

like an old

lover

wanting him back

like a bad

habit

or addiction of the heart

just to feel

his teeth again

on your soul

is so

deviant

it feels good

it feels like

being bathed in a hot

wine/blood

of passion

of feeling

after a cool dry spell

spent in

air conditioned

unreal

anaesthesia

living in your life

like a temporary tenant

rather than living it

even the teeth

of pain

feel wanted

and something truer

when contrasted

with the crisp comfortable

cleanliness

of a neat clean empty heart

picking its way deftly

through a vacant life

welcome home
