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

Oh, wow.

I just got on. Awesome timing.

Alright Mr. Mayo,

I gots to go for a bit but have you tried your random act of kindness yet?

Mine didn't turn out so hot. >_<
Maybe yours will be better.
Hope you're okay today!


See you all in a bit!

Schroedinger's Spider: A Sicilian Sonnet For A Spinner

The Weaver Girl was made inside a word
and only lives when she is being read--
a web of clever ink for years unheard
beyond a veil made up of quiet thread
and now she lives where lines of truth are blurred
inside the box the spider might be dead
until the spinner otherwise has stirred
the truth, and then the spider lifts its head.

The spinner's time is only his to share
he often lends it to his many guests
although the spinner also may receive.

So if you've got a moment now to spare
then do as others have, and so request
a thought, a poem, and challenge her to weave.

here's the infamous Theodore Grimm fight with Frank jumping to defend Gee without a second thought. Ray and Jamia trying to hold him back but he just drags Ray along! The funnist thing is that Gee just gets up and walks away from the pile of bodies while are all the fists are flying. (You see Gee throw the lamest punch ever.) Frank is like a dynamo. Ray is about as much use in a fight as a chocolate teapot, you just see him running around with a drink in his hand. LOL

Mayo, I really like this post. I like all the layers of meaning implied and it's pretty.

I hope you're having a good day. The sun is shining and I'm appreciating a nice spring day during lunch.

anima said...

Hi Blogbelieve friends!

Mayo, how are you today?
Lower case/no punctuation? Hmmmm. This is different. I hope you are okay.

Me, well, I'm at work and I seriously want to punch the crap out of everyone here. I'm so sick of it. Why does it suck so bad?

Mayo, what do you do for a living? I've always wondered.

Anonymous said...

Oh jenn it is hardly spring yet! Soon though. ;D

Ahh Mayo I hate when you post and run. It's like you just rolled over and started snoring. And like the rest. Of us should go make a cup of tae and a sandwich or something. Heehee

My friend just asked me" why are you always raeding that page that says Mayonaise?!" I told her, Because I like it. She said to me, "YOU'RE mayonnaise. With a bunch of crazy on top!" Than she stuffed a samoa in my mouth.

The cookie of corse.

Hello to a
Everyone here, hope you are habging in there! :D

Hello, Mayo.

Give me a few hours, maybe a day, to get this. It's not my strong suit, so it takes me awhile.

Hello BBers. I hope your Thursday is so freakin' spiffy, you couldn't buy enough spiffiness to spiff the shit up any more.

:)

Smoke: You made me chuckle at your act of kindness.

But, even though it isn't reciprocated, know that you did something good and meaningful. That's what matters.

K, it's 60 degrees outside. My crocus' are starting to bloom. There are buds on the trees. For the love of Pete, don't make me break into song!

I went out to lunch and almost didn't come back it's so beautiful outside.

"stuffed a samoa in my mouth" Oh how I laughed at that one! :)

anima said...

Welp, I need to go strangle a few people. Especially the one that has bad breath and treats me like I'm a five year old. I seriously want to punch her in the face.

What is my problem today?

SS, please bring me some good thoughts for the day....I'm failing. Mayo, I'd ask you but it seems as though you are already gone and you don't really talk to me anyway, so I'm gonna really on our good friend SS. Still love ya though. ;)

Anyway ladies -long time no see! I hope everyone is doing well. I have to be off -was just running by! Maybe I'll venture back later -be well ladies!

Oh and Mayo -hold tight to this character, whether or not it's inside of you (but I'm sure you understand what we all believe.) ;)

Anonymous said...

Hey Anima, Jules, Jen, Lewis, and Kass :)

Let me just ask one more question before I have to head off.

Mayo, is your Shift button broked? ;)

Now, let me work this out, so don't pay any attention to this. It's just for me.

meeting emotion/with a halt
Not overreacting, right?

holding decision/above impulse
Making wise and informed choices.

Okay, so it seems positive. But, call me a tree-seer, the lack of capitalization screams to me otherwise, but like I said, your Shift button may be stuck or sumthin'. ;)


SS:
If you stop by today, know you're still my number one turd. I hope today is treating you amazingly and continues right on into the weekend. Stay safe!

Just a little something funny I need to tell ya. Remember how Mustard and I were asking for a go-kart track? I even brought it up today on the porch. Well, I've changed my mind. I don't want a go-kart track. Why?

Well, take a look at CNN. A lady got scalped by a go-kart at a party. O_O

No thank you, no go-karts for me. That is terrible! I can't believe it.

Okay anons.....

Carry on! I'm going back to work now.

Mayo are you pissed about something? You've got me worried. I need to be working (and punching people in the face) but I find myself going over your post again and again, wondering why this it is so different.

Is there anything we can do? Is there anything you want to tell us? I don't have a good feeling about this. I hope you are okay. I really do.

Kapunua I hate to see you lower yourself for someone who doesn't even acknowlegde you. You are better than him. Your poem is really nice. You are a good writer.

That goes for everyone. It hurts to watch you spend your time on someone who doesn't seem to care much. You pour out your beautiful herats and souls to him some more than others, and usually for nothing.

I know you wil disagree with me but I had to say it.

lewishasfallensloppydead said...

Your comment wasn't there when I was typin up mine! Hello! Hello! Hello! How are ya? Are you good!? Is he cranky? Everyone fed? Everyone being civil? No hot men to view on the telly right now!? Hello! Hello! Far!!!

farawaysoclose said...

hey babe! i missed you too loads!

farawaysoclose said...

funny we posted at the same time!
i yelled when i saw your name there!! (yes i can be over dramatic!)

its been ages!

farawaysoclose said...

Is he cranky?#

what mr bloke or mayo??

kidding.

mr bloke is at a meeting hence me being here. kids fed, bathed, pj'd and playing mario galaxy on the wii!

farawaysoclose said...

where did that # come from. i'm sure i didn't type it??

lewishasfallensloppydead said...

I'm good! You good!? What are you up to right now? I just mailed ya -a novel, so sorry! :( Was in the middle of my next to ya when I felt an inkling to come back to Mayo's. Tricky condiment! He sent me to ya!

Mayonaise, I suppose this is a better post than your previous one, but I get the feeling that something is still wrong. No P.S. punctuation, etc.

I hope you are alright.

farawaysoclose said...

i've not checked my email.

i had a feeling mayo would post so i was itching to get on here.

i'm not up to anything. just sitting here.

my 8 yr old is quite intrigued by this "mayonaise" that keeps me sidetracked!

lewishasfallensloppydead said...

I yelled too! I don't think we'd get along if we weren't vaguely overdramtic with the same things..

Well both naturally! ;P

I love Mario! Although, I think Luigi looks better in his green.

Just ignore Blogger! Tried to boot me, so don't feel bad about an odd little 'accent' -keeps things interesting yea? :)

lewishasfallensloppydead said...

No doubt the condiment factor is throughing her off! Why does mum like mayo so much? Maybe she is hungry? :P

I'm supposed to be doing well far too much for someone of my age and antsy calliber -does no one understand I get bored very easily? How could anyone assume I could accomplish so very much without wanting something amusing to play with for a time inbetween!? --Thus here I am! And here ya are Far! Hello hello hello! Love love love!! :D

Hiya Bc, long time -no see! How goes it? Are you well? :)

farawaysoclose said...

hi BC! you ok?

i'm crap at mario galaxy. its hysterical to watch mr bloke playing it though cos he gets so into it and the controller to make him jump up or twist or something has a certain wrist action!! you get my drift. i just stand there smirking at him and saying "don't do that infront of the kids!!"

its little things like that that keep me going in life!!

This post reminds me of this song:

You in the dark
You in the pain
You on the run
Living a hell
Living your ghost
Living your end
Never seem to get in the place that I belong
Dont wanna lose the time
Lose the time to come

Whatever you say its alright
Whatever you do its all good
Whatever you say its alright
Silence is not the way
We need to talk about it
If heaven is on the way
If heaven is on the way

You in the sea
On a decline
Breaking the waves
Watching the lights go down
Letting the cables sleep

Whatever you say its alright
Whatever you do its all good
Whatever you say its alright
Silence is not the way
We need to talk about it
If heaven is on the way
Well wrap the world around it
If heaven is on the way

Im a stranger in this town

If heaven is on the way

Im a stranger in this town

Oh lord Far! Does he really do that!? My lil brother used to do that Every Time we played -nearly took my eye with his elbow one too many times! Forget that man! I want to keep my vision -I still beleive there are some things in this world worth seeing! -Although, you have a point -some of the funniest crap I've ever seen! Lil Bro nearly fell out his window once! That of course wasn't funny, but it scared him so much he started to pee his pants! I wouldn't trade that memory for the life of me!

Merely Emotionless -you o.k. eh? The song was very sad but has a touch of hope yes? Emotions have a grand control over us all but without them we are less than human. You still wanna be one of us yea? Feel something please.

Hey Safe- I have to be off, so hopefully we'll get to chat more sometime soon?? I'll look forward to it. :)

So Mayo, if I may be so bold (Miss T will be proud I think) -could I suggest a nap Mr. Condiment? Kinda seems like someone left you out in the sun today. Yuky bad. No friendly hello or sweet dreams goodbye? No love huh? You are really something different today sir. I hope you feel better, or just less soiled soon.

-Bye all! loves-l/d

Anonymous said...

Us and homophones, Mayo.

They may be your friend, but I hate them with bloody passion.

I don't know, Mayo. I'm not going to try and decipher your meaning. That's for you.

But, upon first impression, I didn't get the feeling that the "character," whomever it belongs to, was "strong."

I thought this because, as I mentioned earlier, of the lack of capitalization. No statements, just thoughts. I get that, because when I write, when I write, that's how it comes out.

I also feel that you're trying to paint positivity over a negative thought or event. Basically, you're trying to make it sound good, but underneath it's not.

But, that could be my foul humor painting a picture on your words that isn't there.

So, nevermind all of that. I hope you're okay. I hope everything in your life is working the way you'd like and, if it isn't, that you find a way or a person to get you to where you'd like to be.

I'll see you around.

Anonymous said...

Or, you're being faced with something, a decision, a crisis, whatever you'd like to term it.

You're caught in the passageway, the tunnel, the strait, that's between these two options.

Do you or don't you?
Who will it effect?
How will you be perceived?
Will opinions of you change?
Will you lose loved ones?
Life or Death?

Mayo, I trust that you will make the best decision. I also trust that you are a strong person who has moments of weakness, but I ask you, who doesn't?

If I'm way off, just forget I said anything. It's getting harder and harder for me to guess at your meanings. Most of the time, it's because I hope I'm wrong.

Good luck, Mayo.

I interpret this as a response to the issue of losing control and hurting someone. I agree Mayo, having strength of character does mean that we try to do our best to check our impulses and be guided by reason --- even if the best we can do is walk away and cool down, so we can think clearly later. There's nothing wrong with admitting that we can't deal with a situation properly in real time, but there are always other opportunities to address any issues when it would be both beneficial and easier to focus on positive outcomes. Damn,... I sound like a counselor! I am glad you have a good understanding of what it means to have this strength.

Yes Dm is great. But their video could be a lot better. It's sad they have these great songs but most of the videos seemed half ass ed to me

Good morning Ergo. How are you? ♥

Anon, that was my general feeling. Something about this post that I don't like.

Goodbye Safe. Take care dearie ♥

Siobhan, I love Depeche Mode.

Martha Smith-Jones said...

Hello Ep how are you?

Bellatrix said...

Bye Safe and hi Ergo!
*HUGS*

I'm okay martha, thanks. And you?

Anonymous said...

Aww, bye, Safe!!! *sobs*

Ich wünsche dir noch eine gute Nacht!

miranth said...

Hi Bellatrix!

And Hi Martha! I am doing well, except for my Ariel (the mermaid) red hair. I was just told I look like a raspberry...delicious! :D I'm not sure I like my new color. How are you doing? I hope you are doing well! If I don't check back its cause I'm working ;)

Martha Smith-Jones said...

So Mayo are you still around? why not talk?

Anonymous said...

MJ, mayo left a while ago. This post was made earlier.

ergo said...

ok my feeling on the post. It sounds like it comes from a position of strength, but the natural tendency would be toward one course of action and he feels the need to override his heart with his mind.

but it may be something else completely...

Martha Smith-Jones said...

I'm as well as can be. a raspberry, why not a strawberry or a cranberry.


Maybe it will grow on you.

Anonymous said...

I'm fine, MJ. Thank you for asking!

DM so reminds me of that night when I got drunk for the very first time.

I 'decorated' my friend's bathroom walls with my dinner.

ergo said...

I'm good thanks BC MJ and everyone

Miranth if you wash your hair with a dandruff shampoo it can help tone down a colour


and HAPPY BIRTHDAY MAGIC PIE

(nice shimmy fimble!)

Martha Smith-Jones said...

He could still be lurking or checking up on us. Anyway I think he is around a lot more than he lets on.


So i say join in

I love red hair, Miranth!

Hello Ergo!

How are you? How's the weather in Australia?

Martha Smith-Jones said...

Siobhan I hope you had a colorful dinner that night. Ewww by the way

miranth said...

BC - I read the post positively...I think maybe you are responding to the fact that it sounds sort of uptight to control emotion all of the time and always think first? I agree with that idea that's why I said sometimes it's better to walk away. Then you can express the strength of your emotions privately and communicate how you feel afterward for better understanding. Sometimes the message gets lost in an emotional outburst, but the message itself is worth repeating.

Perhaps stiff smiles were attached this week.

Disregard them while you can. They ache so.

Mayo is talking to someone he trusts. He obviously trusts all of you. You give him much to think about. No I am not Mayo so don't go assuming I am I'm just making an observation.

Do you overestimate his feelings for you, or do you underestimate them?

miranth said...

Thanks ergo! I'll try it.

siobhan - I do like red, too. It's fiery! And Roarrrrr to you :)

Anonymous said...

Yes, it was 'eww', MJ! ^_^
I was quite embarrassed the next day.

We had raclette and it was really colorful, hehe.

Anonymous said...

Miranth, probably. I'll see you guys later. I'm feeling sleepy, and I need to shower.

♥ to all of you.

ergo said...

oh siobhan it started showering during the night so it's cloudy nad a bit cool, but it's still pleasant.
I have to tutor this morning , my girl is worried she'll get behind, being sick.
Then I have to pack to fly to surprise my dad on his 70th tomorrow (my brother and I are both arriving unannounced)

Proud Word You Never Spoke

Proud word you never spoke, but you will speak
Four not exempt from pride some future day.
Resting on one white hand a warm wet cheek,
Over my open volume you will say,
‘This man loved me‘—then rise and trip away.

Goodnight Elune. Sweet dreams.

Pretending to be LynZ now? Or should I say again.

Goodnight elune.


anon I will go with underestimate. that is my answer I don't know about the others.

Anonymous said...

Anon at 5:43-

Perhaps the feelings are murky.

ergo said...

anon, I hope there is validity to your observation, I think we all do care and I hope he cares about us too, the amount? well we can never really know, but that's the nature of caring, trying to help regardless of the payoff

Anonymous said...

Good night, Elune! Take care!

Anonymous said...

It is very difficult to decipher these poetic anons. Proud words one, are you saying this is how Mayo feels about the Lovelies or are you randomly talking to someone else?

There is no clarity here and some days.... that is very annoying.

Anonymous said...

Mayonaise if you are playing anonymous games, maybe you shouldn't. It looks like a lot of girls here care for you.

Simply how much of their care are they wasting on you??

ergo said...

goodnight elune!

hey is Mya still here? *waves*

and carrie and Jen

Anonymous said...

I love you very much?

ergo said...

oh anon don't worry about me, I've got a lot of spare caring to use

Anonymous said...

Underestimate.

I think we want to feel like we're making a difference, that we're helping Mayo just as much as we're helping ourselves.

We've been told on countless occasions that this, by us being here, by Mayo being here, we're helping, that we do mean something.

I think I underestimate how much Mayo cares about this place.
