How tectonics shift
As continents drift apart,
Oceans open up.

Now you, undeterred
Ascend the promontory,
Cross the esplanade.

Poised with honours,
You sidle the cliff edge path
Predator to prey.

Await your moment.
Swoop, gliding on the uplift,
Behind you a trail.

My mirth, invested in you
This day escapes me.
A parting gift.

please read the words
and then completely forget
pretend you haven't seen them
let's just say I haven't written them yet

maybe just glance at them
each and every private word
and it's possible you'll not remember
or it's likely they were blurred

please see the words in lines
as characters, empty, without life
disregard their impact
let them hide at the back of your mind

please read the words
and then completely forget
pretend that you haven't seen them
let's say I haven't written them yet


Uurrmmm.  This is a bit random really.
I thought I was beaten,
deflated, despised
as words left me wounded
and kicked at my pride
I will not give creedence
to cruel, callous lies
and bold as a phoenix
from your ashes I'll rise.
Thankyou all for your support today, it has meant so much to me and has buoyed me up from the depths. To realise I have such wonderful friends here is truly a gift. You are my blessings, each of you....... Loghain who??? **
I have a pile to my right of what was once a tree and I use my ax er keyboard
        to chop it change it for my need
My friends do the same near me and we sing all live long day, everyone does
        it for enjoyment and we sure don't mind the pay

It's just simple to see
why love is so
complicated


My new favorite poet is a fifteen year old girl.
Margaret is clever it's astounding.
I knew youth was coming like this but usually when I saw it up close they we're just these maniacal computer wiz kids but this girl seems to party.
I hope she meets Alex Turner someday.
I hope she meets Andrew VanWyngarden too.
I don't know why, but I guess it's because they're dashing and she deserves the best.
I hope the world don't tangle her up too much and don't sit on her like a fat bully.
I know she can dodge it though and we need her and her vision of peace like a checkpoint.

Shine on Margaret, light up the world.
