Morrissey Con Gusano (218)

i drank half a bottle of Monte Alban and tragarse el gusano.
i drank it straight from the bottle as Metalocolypse played in the background.
i could hear that someone was translating the garbled lyrics from the theme song, so i rushed into the living room to record the show.
i went to bed around midnight and fell asleep rather easily thinking of a girl i was pretty sure i wouldn't see again, or at least, see without la sensación de mierda.
i chose the Hills Have Eyes as my background accompaniment and crawled into bed.
lying there with my head buried in the pillow, i realized that the rape scene in the film had not occurred yet.
i was not in the mood, as it were, to expirience the scence, so i thought about other options.
the only other choice in background noise was an old Family Guy episode, and they are worse than new episodes, so i turned off the television and tomó mis posibilidades con el silencio.
what followed was seven restless hours of Girlfriend In A Coma by the Smiths playing in my head- except i only know the chorus, so that's all i got.
For seven hours.
at some point i imagined a music video for the song, or rather, the chorus.
Morrissey, lead singer of the Smiths, wondered around a garishly neon lit Spanish house at night singing the chorus as a blue ghostly figure of who i assume was his girlfriend floated about.
at seven a.m., i was wide awake.
it was a new day.
I don't know yet what Morrissey was trying to show me, but i hope i figure it out soon...
