strength of character

willowed cables entwined
confident in the bind

strait and narrow, strong
slight curve at the hilt
meeting emotion
with a halt
holding decision
above impulse
strong, wise and steady
grounded by design

Silent Noon

Your hands lie open in the long fresh grass,--
...The finger-points look through like rosy blooms:
...Your eyes smile peace. The pasture gleams and glooms
'Neath billowing skies that scatter and amass.
All round our nest, far as the eye can pass,
...Are golden kingcup-fields with silver edge
...Where the cow-parsley skirts the hawthorn-hedge.
'Tis visible silence, still as the hour-glass.
Deep in the sun-searched growths the dragon-fly
Hangs like a blue thread loosened from the sky:--
...So this wing'd hour is dropt to us from above.
Oh! clasp we to our hearts, for deathless dower,
This close-companioned inarticulate hour
...When twofold silence was the song of love.

Do you ever feel guilty over THIS BLOG "Mayonaise"? First you tricked them. They came here, you tricked them to make them stay. You have spent months soaking up their beautiful words and their beautiful hearts. They write you poems, stories about you, they draw for you and send you pictures, one posts songs two or three times a day, they share their lives with you, they offer you support and unconditional love. And once a month or so you can be bothered to say HELLO to them. These women are nice and some of them are truley talented. They love you.

Do you ever feel guilty..... Or are you just simply used to constant female attention being centered on you, and well wishes, and it no longer means anything to you, anything at all.

Caring about someone and showing your concern is not a handout where you expect to receive something in return. Sometimes you do, sometimes you don't.

Murky i think that is good way to explain it.

Hands..... heart..... sword....

Yes, some of you know who I am. Rest assured that even if Mayo doesn't appreciate you, I do.

Caring is never wasted.

it should be good siobhan I'm going to just be sitting outside a store he'll be at, and my brother arrives by taxi later (he's travelling from the other side of the country, me from 1000km north)

It's not a waste to me either.

Guys, I'm outta here!!! 5PM! I made it through.

First of all, Mayonaise made this blog to counteract against "Love Man" and her opinions, and second, he did not tricked us. We came on our free will.

Anonymous said...

They don't do these things because they want something from Mayo, they do these things because they care about him.

It is my belief that if Mayo never spoke to them at all, they would still continue to talk to him, write poems etc.

Mayo can not speak with them too frequently or it would become clear that he is not who some believe him to be. It is easier and more convenient to be shrouded in mystery. The charade continues; nobody is being hurt.

miranth said...

Anon,

I cannot say that I know Mayo, so I cannot say how he feels about anything. I do like the depth of his sentiment, expressed in these posts, I enjoy interpreting them, prob. incorrectly, and I enjoy the amiable company.

I have a hunch, however, that Mayo does derive some positive outcome from this experience or he (or she) wouldn't be here.

Hello. I'm all right, thank you.

anima said...

Anon, that was really sweet. And to the other anons showing their care, thank you for your words to the lovelies here.

I just feel Mayo's just a little off today. I do think it was kind of shitty not to say hello, but whatever - he could just be having a bad day. *shrugs*

He doesn't seem to 'own' this post. Kind of 'passive' with the lack of caps and punctuation.

I think I worry too much.




HAPPY BIRTHDAY MAGIC!!!!!

Is it a waste of my time to come here and care

Sometimes I feel it is other times I don't. It all depends on the mood I am in at the time and the vibe I get from this place.

Hi Anima!

Hi Redrum!

I would be lost without this place.

Never will I take my time here for granted.

I will keep on giving and hope that someone, anyone, finds something in it.

I expect nothing in return, from any of the visitors to Mayo's or from Mayo himself.

It's not how I work.

Love Unexpressed

The sweetest notes among the human heart-strings are dull with rust;
The sweetest chords, adjusted by the angels, are clogged with dust;
We pipe and pipe again our dreary music upon the self-same strains,
While sounds of crime, and fear, and desolation, come back in sad refrains.

On through the world we go, an army marching with listening ears,
Each longing, sighing, for the heavenly music he never hears;
Each longing, sighing, for a word of comfort, a word of tender praise,
A word of love, to cheer the endless journey of earth's hard, busy days.

They love us, and we know it; this suffices for reason's share.
Why should they pause to give that love expression with gentle care?
Why should they pause? But still our hearts are aching with all the gnawing pain
Of hungry love that longs to hear the music, and longs and longs in vain.

We love them, and they know it; if we falter, with fingers numb,
Among the unused strings of love's expression, the notes are dumb.
We shrink within ourselves in voiceless sorrow, leaving the words unsaid,
And, side by side with those we love the dearest, in silence on we tread.

Thus on we tread, and thus each heart in silence its fate fulfils,
Waiting and hoping for the heavenly music beyond the distant hills.
The only difference of the love in heaven from love on earth below Is:
Here we love and know not how to tell it, and there we all shall know.

ergo said...

ok I'm off back in a few hours!

play nice ! heehee

remember "it's all fun and games until somebody loses an eye!"
(I just used that line here for real! lol)

Martha Smith-Jones said...

No it's not about getting something in return but at times this place has away of getting to you. When we have good times here you feels so happy.


But the bad times can drag you down and make you want to run away.

The one at 6:18 PM sums up for me how it seems like these women get along with Mayo and how he treats them. That sums up the relationship here.

Mayo did you post that? Is it your way of saying you are sorry you can't say what it means to you?

I hope so for the sake of the lovelies.

Anon,

I find religion more of a one way street, with church, whichever one, always at its apex. I don't get that sense here.

People caring has rarely been a problem with the world. It's when people don't care or care only for themselves that problems arise.

Jade - thanks for getting back to us
Miss T and Bikey - where are you two? Hmm? HMMM? * wiggles eyebrows*
Cupcake - hope you are okay
Triston - welcome. I shall apologise in advance because I am used to spelling Triston with an A so I can assure you I will get it wrong at some point.
Elune - nice to see you again.

Open palm like a starfish

no worries, waiting
it is for me to look up

to look up alone
it is for me to
not envy
not envy
to not envy the tanabata stars
and so,
so,
really there is no need
and sir, she said
sir, she said,
and sir, she said
again,
really there is no call for this
empty black box
in a vague white state,
leave it to you,
leave it,
leave it to you to
obfuscate
and they say,
yes, this is
IT,
this is IT,
fare thee,
fare thee
and nevermore
and evermore
and nevermore again
but at Shallot
where shadows make me
half sick
but only,
only half,
and the web still delights
weaving the mirror's
magic sights
when lovely woman
stoops to folly
and makes three paces,
makes three paces
and makes three paces
around the room again
and leaves the web
and leaves the loom
a name will die
but just a name,
the spider lives on
all the same.

All the World’s a Stage

All the world's a stage,
And all the men and women merely players;
They have their exits and their entrances,
And one man in his time plays many parts,
His acts being seven ages. At first, the infant,
Mewling and puking in the nurse's arms.
Then the whining schoolboy, with his satchel
And shining morning face, creeping like snail
Unwillingly to school. And then the lover,
Sighing like furnace, with a woeful ballad
Made to his mistress' eyebrow. Then a soldier,
Full of strange oaths and bearded like the pard,
Jealous in honor, sudden and quick in quarrel,
Seeking the bubble reputation
Even in the cannon's mouth. And then the justice,
In fair round belly with good capon lined,
With eyes severe and beard of formal cut,
Full of wise saws and modern instances;
And so he plays his part. The sixth age shifts
Into the lean and slippered pantaloon,
With spectacles on nose and pouch on side;
His youthful hose, well saved, a world too wide
For his shrunk shank, and his big manly voice,
Turning again toward childish treble, pipes
And whistles in his sound. Last scene of all,
That ends this strange eventful history,
Is second childishness and mere oblivion,
Sans teeth, sans eyes, sans taste, sans everything.

I Wandered Lonely as a Cloud

I wandered lonely as a cloud
That floats on high o'er vales and hills,
When all at once I saw a crowd,
A host, of golden daffodils;
Beside the lake, beneath the trees,
Fluttering and dancing in the breeze.

Continuous as the stars that shine
And twinkle on the milky way,
They stretched in never-ending line
Along the margin of a bay:
Ten thousand saw I at a glance,
Tossing their heads in sprightly dance.

The waves beside them danced; but they
Out-did the sparkling waves in glee;
A poet could not but be gay,
In such a jocund company;
I gazed—and gazed—but little thought
What wealth the show to me had brought:

For oft, when on my couch I lie
In vacant or in pensive mood,
They flash upon that inward eye
Which is the bliss of solitude;
And then my heart with pleasure fills,
And dances with the daffodils.

Told You So

Be careful when you touch me
I will cling to you like a stain
I'll slice you like a razorblade
and make you scream from the pain

Don't bother wasting time on me
I'm shattered and I'm broken
How can you put me back together
When you don't even know me.

I'm not saying this to hurt you
although honesty often does
You think you see right through me
but I'm as clear as mud

I will only let you hold
the pieces I don't need
I save the sharp ones for myself
and use them to make me bleed

See I warned you not to get to close
I'll ruin your favorite shirt
You can't cease the blood flow
for someone who likes to hurt

So now I'm on your clothes
and your hands are rusty red
Don't say I didn't warn you
You should have listened to what I said

Life, my friend, is a mindless cycle of monotony. But, I am fed, clothed and working so, you know, it doesn't suck.

Talking of which, no I haven't, we shall have to remedy that ;)

What is your favourite sexy track? Meaning one that you heard and just went ' God, that's raunchy ' as opposed to one that has a personal connection to you.

Mine, weirdly is: Disturbed - Fear

It's the sort of track that makes me think of dark and dirty rock clubs where everyone is squashed up close and it's hot and the baseline gets you in your very core and it's really gutteral and tribal. Love it.

The aspects you describe
all colored reds and blacks
scream out and circumscribe
what neither of you lacks

while everything you say
as you own up, does cling
we'd hardly waste a day
from autumn until spring

if the pieces though intense
truly only caused us pain
it's only common sense
to cut against the grain

you have to get too close
and revel in the dirt
and dance among the ghosts
and to hell with the bloody shirt

though tasting all this ink
is lonesome, trying, baleful
when you're standing on the brink,
there's no such thing as careful

Anonymous said...

A long, long time ago...
I can still remember
How that music used to make me smile.
And I knew if I had my chance
That I could make those people dance
And, maybe, they’d be happy for a while.

[...]

Did you write the book of love,
And do you have faith in God above,
If the Bible tells you so?
Do you believe in rock ’n roll,
Can music save your mortal soul,

And can you teach me how to dance real slow?

[...]

I met a girl who sang the blues
And I asked her for some happy news,
But she just smiled and turned away.
I went down to the sacred store
Where I’d heard the music years before,
But the man there said the music wouldn’t play.

And in the streets: the children screamed,
The lovers cried, and the poets dreamed.

But not a word was spoken;
The church bells all were broken.
And the three men I admire most:
The father, son, and the holy ghost,
They caught the last train for the coast
The day the music died.

And they were singing,
"Bye-bye, Miss American Pie."
Drove my chevy to the levee,
But the levee was dry.
And them good old boys were drinkin’ whiskey and rye
Singin’, "This’ll be the day that I die.
"This’ll be the day that I die."

No difference:

Hooke's Law, dear
along with what you termed me:
oh yeah, my own field here,

is not reliant on the mass
of the body.
I disagree:
you are floating lightly now
but the downswing
will scrape the cement
and it is all tied up in
the mass
of your words.
I consider context,
consider the source.
As the extension, so the force.

Count upwards from nine
to three
every three or four,
by degrees
and hope:
lucky number sevens
or a lucky triple three?

Weary with toil, I haste me to my bed,
The dear repose for limbs with travel tired;
But then begins a journey in my head
To work my mind, when body's work's expired:
For then my thoughts--from far where I abide--
Intend a zealous pilgrimage to thee,
And keep my drooping eyelids open wide,
Looking on darkness which the blind do see:
Save that my soul's imaginary sight
Presents thy shadow to my sightless view,
Which, like a jewel hung in ghastly night,
Makes black night beauteous, and her old face new.
Lo! thus, by day my limbs, by night my mind,
For thee, and for myself, no quiet find.

Smoke,

Oh please, oh please post a poem about the Slaw Ass Princess!!

Smoke said...

Oh hell no. I couldn't.

I tried and I just can't do without laughing.

Smoke said...

Do you see why? I can't even type all the words needed to make a complete sentence!


Jeez!

sdock10 said...

Please please! Just 4 lines.

a thousand times returned
my sister in rhyme
where words are like shards
but hopes are sublime

you snapped up a spark
for my eyes to perceive
and the vega star girl
only lives here to weave

I bet Weaver Girl can spin a poem about the Slaw Ass Princess.

sister midnite said...

Weaver Girl, that was a fantastic poem. Thank you. :)

Slaw Ass? I'm not even asking. ^_~

O_o I forgot how fast the comment # rises here... that'll learn me for going away! (Busy @ work, home puter virused, free time meager.)

Smoke said...

What the hell would you say? What does that even mean?

Sis!

Basically I suck at typing. ^_^ I meant to type out SLOW Ass Princess and it came out SLAW.

BTW - PPU ♥'s SLAP

Smoke said...

Solly,

Did you see the story about the severed fingers? Did you?

That's awful!

I told you I wasn't telling no story! :(

And the woman who got scalped? Did you see it? HORRIBLE!

sdock10 said...

No, Smoke, no I did not.

Thanks for sharing though. You rock.

Ol Slawwy you!

Hello all RW this is for you. Because I love your reactions


* Milking it
A woman and a baby were in the doctor's examining room, waiting for the doctor to come in.

The doctor arrived, examined the baby, checked his weight and found it somewhat below normal. The doctor asked if the baby was breast fed or bottle fed.

"Breast fed," the woman replied.

"Well, strip down to your waist," the doctor asked. She did. He pressed, kneaded, rolled, cupped, and pinched both breasts in a detailed, rigorously thorough examination.

Motioning for her to get dressed he said, "No wonder this baby is under weight! You don't have any milk."

"I know," she said, "I'm his grandmother, but I'm glad I came."

To this sliver of land,
this sandbar of suburbia
stripped of firs and outstripped,
littered in stripmalls
but oh, to the south,
the roar of ocean against:

glass-pricked white sand,
there you came
(you totally did)
with your hair sunblond
and your face all tanned
and your mouth clever truth
and your eyes all fey
and a cord around your neck,
oh my chevalier,
and you swung from the sky
and you crawled on all fours
and you screamed into the wind
and you collapsed onto the floor
with a flame between your shoulders
and a fire in your throat
and a voice full of gravel
and a strange, exotic note

From the south you came
(yeah, you totally did)
but you belong to us now,
swaggering, stuttering genius kid.

A man went to the dentist. He was terrified and unfortunately the dentist said he required 2 fillings.

The dentist produced a syringe but the man screamed and said he was not going to have any injections.

The dentist asked if he could manage gas but again the man said "no", he was too scared.

The dentist asked if he was able to cope with pills. The man said "Yes, I can do that". The dentist said "okay, I will give you a viagra.

The man said: Oh, does viagra help with pain.

"No", said the dentist, "but it will give you something to hold on to while I put in your fillings".

We Wear the Mask

We wear the mask that grins and lies,
It hides our cheeks and shades our eyes—
This debt we pay to human guile;
With torn and bleeding hearts we smile,
And mouth with myriad subtleties.

Why should the world be over-wise,
In counting all our tears and sighs?
Nay, let them only see us, while
We wear the mask.

We smile, but, O great Christ, our cries
To thee from tortured souls arise.
We sing, but oh the clay is vile
Beneath our feet, and long the mile;
But let the world dream otherwise,
We wear the mask!

Mustard,

Isn't the Mask one great? I totally posted that one. I wanted to spam up the blog!!

Anonymous said...

you posted again today
you didn't even want to stay
you put a word straight
but you left us here to wait

you say you like us
in and out of the buzz
but what is the truth
around this decaying tooth

have you grown bored
given up your sword?
is this going to be over,
please leave me a four leaf clover.

I am no poet
I never claimed to be
It's another's words I use
That inevitably set me free

no, I'm going with the British term, where it's used for a wrench, in which case I would be able to do that, or at least have the urge to, you spanner.

You're quite welcome, Anonymous. :)

Mustard!!
Will you play along?
If you can't post a poem,
then give us a song!

sdock10 said...

Mustard, I just read your words
and you have made ol Solly proud
Don't silence your voice
Shout it out loud

Fimble Star said...

maybe we should smile
all day long
it has been a while
since we sang the same song

At least you're a quick learner, even if you don't like poetry.

That's something postitve I guess

On the porch there lounged a princess
quite a quick and witty dame
in blogbelieve quite a success
with a kind of nutbuster fame

With hair so gold and sunny
and combed to lack of fault,
with a smile like acid honey
full of vinegar and salt

her wits were always spot on
though not typing without flaw
sometime in draggy workdays (yawn!)
she wrote something about slaw?

No matter, said the royal miss,
and laughed along instead,
if you think you're gonna diss
I'll slap you upside your head!

For Fimble to say fuck

From C sharp to D flat
There's nothing in between
I hear what you don't
A space unseen



Stupid freakin' homophones
Get me every time
The modern English language
Has become so asinine

martha, hello
do you like jello
i like the colour yellow
it makes me mellow

For Splash to engage me,
I would be truly blessed;
the Weaver will not deny
Splash's request.
I can do this till bedtime,
like a woman possessed
even moreso if suckers
will try to protest.
Yes the poem was for Adam,
how quickly you guessed--
As to what should come after,
that's for you to suggest.

usually this time of night
many of our friends alight
to talk about their various days before they go and hit the hay
but when it's all just nonstop poetry
it gets to be a bit of drudgery
if you want to play your games
why not take them to AIM

sdock10 said...

Her words are so stunning that
she can make me a believer
Please spin me in your web
Oh beautiful Weaver

Since you, I, and others
Hold him in high regard
A poem about Mr. Lennon

Hot Damn! Hot Damn!
A poem just for me?
Weaver Girl left me speechless!
Could that really be?

Nah......prolly not!

I ♥ you, Weaver Girl!
