    All day long
    You made a word bomb
    with no clock that went tick
    nor a dynamite stick
    Just some hateful aplomb
    That blew wrong

    Folly all along
    Folderol, the word bomber song.

    I promise I'll be good no drama
    I'll behave well what do ya say?
    This is all for you. Be cool.
    I know we both "secretly" miss Seta
    (shhh we do.)
    And it's like living with only one shoe.
    Oh shit and I'm the cat who pooed
    So this is how the magic begins?
    Haha ha!

    You are a handsome man aren't you?
    Only handsome men want to shave
    in the sun when they are perfected.

    Tell me, what are FinsburyParkCarrots
    other than good for your eyes?
    And tell me the deep spiritual meaning
    behind food.
    It's raining you
    must be right at home.

    Haven't a good quote for ya I'm usually
    prepared with a quote but all I've got
    is the theme to Indiana Jones the one
    where the ball keeps rolling...
    Yeah that one...

    Write a happy ending Fins.

    Out of intuition prespire higher.
    Zippity do da it wouldn't surprise me
    if coke bottles fell out of the sky.

    That same question What is language
    was recently asked here too
    I agreed with my peer
    to teach the teacher
    a thing or two.

    Thank you for that. Yes, AmaT, be good.
    And thank you for the "handsome" bit. I am,
    I'm told, by my fair lady J, food
    for feasting eyes of love. I clam
    quite tightly at a tendency to brag
    "It's true of course, I'm really quite a fella",
    so I'll not boast. Let other tongues go wag
    about the face behind the black umbrella
    that mystery has opened on the skies
    of raining curiosity, packed with sighs
    that pour down on a moment's thought full throttle ...
    every drop shaped like your cola bottle.

    :)

    And on that note I'm off to bed. Don't trash the place while I'm gone, anyone. ;)

    thanks. I think...

    crescent shaped hearts love no-one, empty like a stone and hollow in my bones, I'm all alone, freaking out on fucking lies I see, everyone finds themselves inside, got no alibi, in a hole, going down, coming to the calls heard by only one, rusty edges fly around, by the way, youth deprived, soul survived, went with the time, ticking away...

    You sip weak tea to breakfast news and hear
    the radio presenter in his smug
    estuary drawl, faux-insincere,
    cod-test the politician. "I'm no mug,
    There's prozac in the water, in our tea,
    and flouride too." The politician groans,
    "What you people always fail to see
    when hurling words like airy sticks and stones
    is that we understand the stats; we've got
    the finest brains all on the job; we know
    what's best in this case. Accusation's rot."
    The interviewer coughs. There's silence now.
    This water's kicking in, I'm in concord
    with one more lie, another cup of fraud.

    "The people can't be trusted,
    Now they're shouting doubt,
    Making out we're busted:
    How'd we vote them out?"

    the mayor is a major ass,
    the chief's seen better light,
    so much blood spilt in the grass,
    it happened over night,

    none had seen the brutal mess,
    freedom's come and gone,
    heisted in a truck, no less,
    chained locked, and it is done,

    the mayor's wife has run away,
    it's known the chief is missing,
    some children saw them yesterday,
    it's rumoured they were kissing,

    and what of freedom's prison,
    is there nothing more to this,
    freedom's not for everyone,
    unless you steal a kiss...
    Down the street you can hear her scream youre a disgrace
    As she slams the door in his drunken face
    And now he stands outside
    And all the neighbours start to gossip and drool
    He cries oh, girl you must be mad,
    What happened to the sweet love you and me had?
    Against the door he leans and starts a scene,
    And his tears fall and burn the garden green

    A bobbing crown, an open bill,
    a breast of rising blue;
    Coverts open, poised and still
    for perch stretch, and a true
    new song, made to calling tides
    Heard far beyond the land:
    Within a word a bird resides
    Held in the reader's hand.

    From the core, liquid rich iron flows
    the inner moon-size heart generates
    magnetic energy
    humanity cradled

    we begin our red-fire molten birth

    the Centaur spear pierces earth’s center

    202 flames erupt!

    Glorified white light
    rains down pure ethos beauty

    land alights
    embers develop
    multi-colored dimensional understandings

    Salt of the human tear
    becoming oceans of connections

    whispers of oral traditions

    breatheing intimate insight
    of civilizations’ perpetual soul.

    Zeus climbs atop of the Acropolis
    and roars to
    four
    billion
    viewers
    across continents
    Agamemnon and Achilles time` swords rest

    And here
    In the gathering under one roof,
    One vision
    parades in dignity of human triumph
    entrusted to keep mankind’s fire dances alive
    in unified competition of the one world.

    Children come! Voices raised curious to hear,
    attracted to the brilliant beauty of the single torch
    igniting their hopes to carry on honored traditions.
    '..... Ah! A perfect illustration of the poststructuralist paradox. Does the signifier "Merlot" correspond with the 'truth' of the bottle I polished off last night, or do we hold in our thoughts a different "signified" of bottle-of-Merlot-ness? Perhaps we're dreaming of the same bottle!" -FinsburyParkCarrots
