Star Gazer: Unlucky overlord from sydney australia. Named hidden agenda before. We conversed in only poetry remember? For once where the tyre swing hung on the tree Now hangs a broken noose.... Remember? Conor Blatchford: I remember, for our poetic talk Became our poetry And I always did enjoy The leisure of a pleasant memory Star Gazer: A pleasant memory twas, But memories get forgotten, But I do send applause, For a memory unlike cotton. Conor Blatchford: Applause graciously accepted, No roses are thrown but none needed That memory was but a play, one of many That in life will continually be seeded Star Gazer: Until uprooted without reason Dangling onto what is left, And heart plays traitor in treason, And memory is but a theft. Conor Blatchford: True, memory is not quite the event But tend and care for it like any plant And it will grow into something fond Something that becomes more real and less like a mask Star Gazer: Humans are attracted to masks, Cruel facades are what we have known all our lives. Conor Blatchford: A façade makes life worthwhile A display of grace and eloquent style Hiding what we truly are Is perfectly understandable, not in the least bizarre Star Gazer: But where is the line between imaginary and reality, Feeding false hopes and liee to banality, It is just one step closer to hell, And one stop further from heaven as well Conor Blatchford: Heaven and Hell are concepts designed To induce goodness and quell pride For even though evil creates a social reject, An old saying re-written: no-one is perfect So how are we supposed to climb The stairway to Heaven with imperfection in mind? Wouldn't it be just easier to fall Into the Hellhole that awaits us all?

We are crossed in the corner Seeded by selfish thought Mind wandered in the ticking of time Bent by insidious temptations Step over the invisible boundaries Doomed by conscience demons We sit alone, spot light challenged Drained by numb sensed chills
