    Thank you "the unseen" and "puremagic" for the recent contributions and to everbody else who have come to read and post to the "April" thread. The month is almost finished. If somemore of the oldschool guys/gals would surprise me that would be great. Great, I say.

    I could not believe the news today
    I could not run far enough away
    I could not face the truth in facts
    My whole world was fading to black
    My inspiration for life and more
    Was found murdered on the floor
    For no apparent reason you life had been taken
    A robbery gone wrong was forsaken
    Life has no true meaning for me now
    If life will go on
    I don't know how
    You've changed your place in this world!

    Euphoric recall of 12 steps to the Moon
    Once, before splish splash landing, I dreamed of green cheese, crackers & candy

    Now we piss away rocket fuel on jets, bombs and rehabilitation war, all the while making the moon feel like a whore.

    What happeded to all our space cowboys with their incredible sight?
    ..... and the knowledge their eyes held to make this planet turn to the right.

    Disqualify the positive.
    Holier than thou Bush.
    If i could, i would send him to the edge of the ancient flat world, give him a push!

    Elect the Noetic.

    Now that would be poetic.

    ..... maybe these words are just fantasy and wholly pathetic. Well whatever they are, i have the serentity to accept the things i cannot change, the courage to say what i can and the wisdoom to know that......

    Bush is an asshole.


    *GitaGirl*
    "and then, one Thursday, nearly two thousand years after one man had been nailed to a tree for saying how great it would be to be nice to people for a change, a girl sitting on her own in a small cafe in Rickmansworth suddenly realized what it was that had been going wrong in the world all this time, and she finally knew how the world could be made a good and happy place. This time it was right and no one had to get nailed to anything. Sadly, before she could get to a phone to tell anyone about it, a terrible stupid catastrophe occurred, and the idea was lost forever."

    Thanks Gita! I hope you are on the up and up.


    Brisk winds blow outside the windows
    Stealthy
    Yet, not quiet
    Winds of change
    The first taste of the cool winter
    Temperature
    Is the true test
    Snow
    The accepted?
    Except with the wheel of a car
    Under your command
    You've changed your place in this world!

    I wish I was rich for all the wrong reasons
    Up to my neck in payoffs and treason
    Aside from my health
    What would be my worry
    Maybe a richer person
    Having a fury
    Having lost all he had
    Now he has gond fucking mad
    Making a lot of people sad
    Those around him look bad
    I wish I was poor for all the wrong reasons
    You've changed your place in this world!

    blink
    with every
    breath
    blink with every
    step
    and take it in
    the sun
    take it in
    the sky
    blink
    with every
    motion
    blink
    with every thought
    blink
    and see your life
    flash
    with every close
    of your eyes.

    oh, the wonder, oh the why
    oh the ethereal soft sigh desire
    as i know and have known your cerebrally inside
    an aside and on site and in flesh and in mind
    and how, when one's wish to dine on and beside you
    how does one placate come forty some high noons?

    the answer seems clear in this afterrush
    blushing one p.m.
    to make now Victorian
    the means to our ends

    the dime upon which
    we stop sopping it up
    our bread and our bowl
    saved for daybreak's fine sup




    (kinda silly, but there you have it :)

    F'ing until it's my name, not god's you shout
    F'ing you from France to Greece
    F'ing on the covers of your bed made of fleece
    F'ing you on the floor of your den
    Then putting you on the washing machine to F you again
    F'ing in you shower before going back to work
    Not talking to you again because I'm a F'ing jerk


    Enjoy the weekend everybody!!!!!!

    omg!!!! evenflow!!! :D:D:D LOL!

    Death can come at any moment
    It will not announce its arrival
    May it happen in my sleep
    Useless is our survival
    Many people run
    Many people hide
    Death like cancer
    Starts on the inside
    Pesticides for my survival
    Playing god with the crops
    Mad cow and tainted pork
    Acid rain drops
    Inevitable as it is
    You can't dwell on through life
    Torture the brain
    Live with the pain
    Check out early
    Leave someone surly
    A nice sleep death will be
    Spread the ashes below my favourite tree
    So earth and I can unite as one
    The same fucking way my life begun
    You've changed your place in this world!

    In marking my territory
    I forget, no deny
    blind
    that the territory itself
    IS
    OF
    Its
    OWN
    mind

    And I am lucky
    To have shelter
    From the wind

    I am lucky
    As my shelter
    Silences the din
    And all the voices
    Holding me captive
    From the truth
    plain and red
    Beckoning my hand
    To fly open
    the double-door underground
    And Tend
    Rend helpless
    This self-perceived sin.

    My Tornado Won’t Be Told
    Where to Blow
    It just Blows
    Where it Goes.
    And I can’t but behold.
    It is glory, like me.

    And to Fear?
    Like a rabbit screeching and calling the hawk’s eye to it?
    No, no…
    I Love It.
    And I am not that dumb.


    Let Faith Lay in its Passing
    The Coming of Dawn
    And the Relative Peace, Thereafter.
    Love.

    I don’t know why I live the day,
    When I can only hold you in my dreams.
    I don’t know what I have to say,
    To catch you like autumn steals the leaves.

    Where is the sweet embrace of night,
    The dusk can bring your face to mind.
    Your wide eyes casting nets of light,
    where only happiness I find.

    And as my lids close out my senses,
    I can feel my lips against your neck.
    And as our fingers lock intensely,
    I know that there’s no turning back.

    I only joke to hear you laugh,
    And only talk to keep you near.
    Silently I walk the winding path,
    To the question, now that the answer’s here.

    Whenever you look into these blue puddles,
    Know that something ripples deeper than friendship.
    I hope to lie next to you and just collect stubble,
    Which slows the caress of you fingertips.

    Your eyes to me are shards of sun
    descending through the thinnest cloud
    and in them I am stuck in time, a reflection
    trapped in paradise.

    A mirror cracked beneath your nose, in which
    shined a dozen smiles, and each one alone had stopped
    me cold, discerning from unspoken whispers
    a longing which followed me
    into my dreams.

    Where dancing through thin waterfalls, bathed
    in sterling moonlight, we pressed against each
    other’s skin, and felt each other’s warmth within
    our chests.

    For every second arm in arm euphoria eclipsed
    my thoughts, and every minute spent apart ripped
    from my chest my crude life’s blood, which spilled
    like memories

    running swift, against the current of your hips, swaying
    like wordless music, in a tune that drove men like
    me insane. But in you I always find myself, like a phoenix
    from the mires.

    When you fall into that chasm, I will gladly dive within
    until those slippery walls are ladders, and brightness fills
    that empty space.

    Baby, do you want me to go
    I know you gotta rest
    The rest of everyone knows
    You always do your best
    To let them rest
    To be their best
    Not on a shelf, but in your heart
    And on your mind, you’re kind
    I’m blessed, I’m blessed,
    I’m blessed you’re mine And

    I
    Think you’re Fine
    And I
    Find you divine
    And You
    Always gotta spot on my mind
    So we
    Can Take our Time


    (he said)

    No, I do not want you to go
    I know you gotta get
    To making everything flow
    Such a perfectionistic, cryptic
    ______________chick
    Lip Goss, Fix this
    Yes there it is!
    No I do not want you to leave
    We’re custom built I see
    Please please please please
    Stay here with me

    Cuz I
    Think you’re fine
    And I
    Find you divine
    And You
    Always gotta spot on my mind
    So we
    Can take our Time

    Thanks to all who came and posted and read. It was fun going through some old notebooks to find some material to post. Sometimes I just went to the "pit" well to bring back some old crap I had posted before. Love seemed to rule the day as did the turning of winter to spring. I will continue to read you stuff as long as you continue to write. It was a blast. Too bad some of the old school people (you know who you are) didn't drop in for a one day go. It would have been fun and nobody would have made you stick around for too long. Until next April..................

    "religion"

    Down on your knees
    A need to pray
    Looking for a beacon
    To light your final day
    Funny how god is an answer
    To every loser who dosen't want to die
    Pick on a Muslim
    Look in the South
    Those white in-bred fuckers
    Spew the same shit from their mouth
    At least they are not afraid of their fate
    Your southern religion has just as much hate
    So don't use religion as a crutch
    Even though it is only as much
    I thought religion was the reason for peace
    Seems like god's name is up for a lease
    When pray becomes prey
    God will have nothing to say
    For if it is watching
    His vision unfold
    Please don't recite to me
    From the bible you hold
    Native Indians
    Had it right all along
    Until the white man came calling
    Telling them right from wrong
    If everyone who is a fanatic
    Would just fuck off and die
    The world would be a better place
    Without religion
    For you and I
    You've changed your place in this world!

  • Life is a funny thing
    Sometimes a beautiful, sensual dance
    Embracing you with strong arms
    Melting into you
    Breathing you in
    Holding you close to it's heart
    Nurturing, loving, caring, giving
    Then comes the exhale
    -For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction-
    You're sent hurling into a brick wall
    By a hard fist
    Busting your chops
    Cracking your fucking skull
    Sending vibrations that turn your very soul
    Beseeching, begrudging, angry, hating
    Leaves you bleeding and desperate
    Black dots swim in your vision
    You stumble and mumble like a sadmadwoman
    Tripping you, mocking you
    Ripping your seams apart
    AND LAUGHING!!??!!
    HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
    HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
    HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
    HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
    HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
    HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
    Oh, that horrid, maniacal laughter
    It rings in your ears
    Whistles through your aching mind
    Gives rise to thoughts
    Thoughts of the days
    Those wonderous days
    Of the dance
    So soft and sweet
    So tender and moist
    Ripe for the picking
    If only you could just breathe in again



    Just trying to bee a good little worker these days. Y'all keep up the great writing and be good to eachother! :)

    Love, BE :)

    ps. :D:D:D Bye!

    shiver
    within days of each other
    april i love you

    *kisses april bye bye*

    :D hee hee
