My heart is a vacuum
and in it a prickly pear.
It is nothing that I swallowed,
it was you who put it there.
In absence of sunlight
it grows and bares flesh
while spines follow limbs
to a fine found filament
of sugar frosted fingers
for my grip almost spent.
It purges heat and a punch
then I swallow it back,
that prickly pear
perhaps, I did put it there.
p.s. it really wasn't as grand as I thought it would be.

«Oldest ‹Older 1801 – 2000 of 2330 Newer› Newest»RW, I think you're correct. I don't have it either.
There's lots of things I want that I can't find.
Have you ever seen The Used live, GS?
I saw them last August at the Carling Academy in Islington. They were vrilliant.
Gah! Sdock! I'm so sorry!
Taste of Chaos, GS? OOOO! :) Is it a good DVD?
Pitchfork FTW
Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's okay, Mustard.
Awwww....poor Solly.
Mustard,you're bad.
BAAAAAAAAAD...
Right, I'm off to bed Family.
'Night everyone, see you tomorrow.
Love you all!
*HUGS & KISSES*
I seem to recall them playing London sometime in November last year, GS. I was looking up what shows were in town when I was there, and I think I just missed them by a couple of days.
Bah! I'll never get to see them!!
*sobs*
Night, Bellatrix :)
*tackles Fimmy*

As long as you're not a stinkin' mean nasty person or some crazy stalker anon who is going to kill me, you are welcome to spend the night at my house; I've got an aerobed and a sofa as well as my bed.
If you like the music I like and are up for a road trip, my home is open to you May 5th - 6th! Tuesday the 6th I will of course be kicking you all out. ;D
*sings*
Tell me I'm a bad, bad, bad, bad man.

HELLO PJ, HOPE YOU ARE HAVING A NICE TIME
Taste of Chaos, GS? OOOO! :) Is it a good DVD?
I enjoy it. The bands may not be to everyone's taste, but as I said, there are some nice personal bits, small interviews with all the bands, sections on how the tour is put together, talking to fans etc.
The whole thing seems to have been compiled in NJ on 25th Feb 2005 because some fans turn up with iced cupcakes for Bert for his birthday.
*Whew!* Now that that is out of the wizzay.
S(S)S, such a sweet gesture for Bean!
And, well of course, I tip my hat to you, my good man. And also I elbow you in the ribs. Just 'cause you're like, there and stuff. Thank you. :D Yes, I set that up; I totally pulled a Mayo last night before bed. But I really actually am part Choctaw though. And just, well, thank you.
Mayo! Well, I dunno! I'm just happeeeeeee! ^______^
Solly, is that really a song? About being half Cherokee and half Choctaw? O_o
Mustard,
I liked your pitchfork.
The devil is frowning on you.
Oh, DUH! My email address is this name here at yahoo dot com, naturally!
SRSLY U GUISE!
Jules,
Yes, that is a real song. It was Tim McGraw's first big hit.
Well, he'll just have to keep frownin'! Can't do anything about it now!
GS, was that the Taste of Chaos that featured the - ahem - Jepha pineapple incident?
Hiya Fim, night Bella.

Lord have mercy.
Don't take the girrrrl...
Hi errrrbody!
My speech is slurred because Mayo poked me in the eyeball instead of the Eyeball of Doom and I had to take my migraine medicine and now I'm just like laaalaaaalalala......
GS, was that the Taste of Chaos that featured the - ahem - Jepha pineapple incident?
Hahah!
And the "Bert, what do you have there? - "Feceeeees" incident, right?!
"Look at the hair connecting from that poo to that poo."
I will be on a plane en route to the wild city of Prince Albert, Saskatchewan on May 5th :(

GS, was that the Taste of Chaos that featured the - ahem - Jepha pineapple incident?
In February? In New Jersey? Whoa, balls of steel!!

Hey, where'd Fimmy go?

Phantom.
That is pretty cool.
I will totally call that kitten that, too.
If it comes back to me.
*has finger over Amazon.ca order button*
Should I order Berth, guys? Have any of you seen it?
Jules,
Am I a ghost?
Is that why I can't sleep? Should I be pulling a Mayo?
*wonders*
But nahhh. Mummy K is going to the show with me.
Well at least she can indulge herself in the Food and the Frolicking. Just not the other F.

rw, when are you going to put more pics up, i like looking at your photos
I don't have more photies, Fimmy :(
I'll take some when I go to visit my parents next month.
I wonder what superhuman powers it takes to pull a Mayo, Sdock.
Whattaya think?
RW: I totally understand where you're coming from. And then they effing look at you like you're encroaching on their space.

Mayo, that was soooo very uncool of you to do.
*imagines SS Phantom Kitty having the voice of Oliver*
hey wassup with blogger? MAYO!!!!!
What's going on with it?
It's being all screwy! >_<
Mustard, cats are curious animals indeed.
One of my landlady's cats is a total diva. He will wait for me on the back deck, perched like a sphynx on the edge of the fence, and pointedly ignore me.
BLOGGER URGHHHHHHHH
hello?
wow, it worked.
now, has anyoen else had problems with blogger?
*tackles Fim*
I did, Fimmy. It's been a royal meffer the past couple of days.
ouch, you could be a tiny bit harder next time rw.
i havent had problems until just now. it said that blogger was currently unavailable.
mayo probably went to clean his dishes
Yeah, Blogger was being a turd. >_<
But, HEY!? We survived!
He will wait for me on the back deck, perched like a sphynx on the edge of the fence, and pointedly ignore me.
And you just want to scare them and make them throw a hissy fit because of their purposeful intent.
But, I ♥ kitties. They're just one of the most contrary creatures.
mayo probably went to clean his dishes
You're probably right, Fim!
Kitties RULE!!
get some elbow grease going mayo, work that arm, scrub those dirty fuckers.
or just buy a dishwasher?
Right lady folks, I'm away to my bed.
Good night everyone.
Good night Mayo.
TTFN

I love it when you talk that way, Betty.
Goodnight, GS!
I knew blogger was going down ...way down...way way down, so I took a bath.
Damnnnnnnn!
Oh, and can I just say that SS is like the coolest dude ever in the history of like coolness? ^_^
Awwwwww.
How sweet am I?
Too Effin' Sweet. Something must be wrong. It's the medicine. That's what it is.

I knew blogger was going down ...way down...way way down, so I took a bath.
And I took a shower!
with your kitties? and smok? and jules?
dirty birds
By myself, missus!! 0_0
I don't know what you're insinuating!
Hi Bella, Gnothi and everyone else here!
SS, I love the way you express yourself through music. You remind me very much of a friend of mine who insists on always referring to me as Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds rather than just saying Lucy. (Sometimes this has even involved actual singing!) He thinks he's hilarious, I roll my eyes and pretend to get annoyed, but the truth is I wouldn't have it any other way.
Well, it's getting late here in England so I'm off to bed. Sweet dreams everyone, and that includes you SS!
goodnight beanny baby.
rw, i just made cheesy garlic bread, would you like some?
Night, Lucy :)
OOOO!! Yummy, Fim!
Thank you, I'd love some :)
its very nice and crispy. i love garlic bread

jules, do you wanna come and pick me up, then we can go to the concert.
I am going to see the Thieving Seagulls!
Nahh. ;) It's "Lance Striker and the Rockaholics" and rumor has it they sound a teensy bit like Taking Back Sunday. TBS denies this though.
I am going to see the Thieving Seagulls!
i am totally going then to get my muffin back. bloody birds
Go get 'em, Fimmy!!
Have a great time, K, and don't forget to give us a concert review! And keep me in mind for any future New York-area shows *coughLeathermouthcough*, as I hope to be down that way sometime this year.
Oh, I wanna thank the nice anons today, and SWA particularly because you have always been lovely.
I'm sorry I forgot--I got excited over a few things. ^_^
rw, any nicker stories today?
I totally will, RW.
Are you sure you don't like them? ;)
Don't like who, K?
No knicker stories, Fimmy, sorry. I happen to be wearing some today. Sorry to disappoint you!
RW, it's really funny. They're great guys and they're fun to watch. It's there shananingans and then some really good live stuff.

Sold, E! I shall order it :)
LEATHERMOUTH:
In June, for the first time in ages, I will have the money and the time to take a trip down to New York to see one of your shows.
You know, just sayin'.
So, like, June would be a good time for a Leathermouth show.
Um, yeah.
Ok, Resurrected wreck. We will make a show just for you!
Good! Let me know how you like it. Which you will. Watch.
Don't like, err, the band that I am going to see. :)
Aww! That was so nice of Leathermouth.
Ummm, Leathermouth.
Georgia.
Seriously, it's not that far.
Just sayin'........
Ok, Smoke&Venom20. We will head on down to Georgia. Can we meet SS Phantom Kitty?
Sure! If I can find it....
O_o
Leathermouth, do you guys do backyard barbecues? I'd totally get you The Big Sandwich.
No, Kapunua. We do backyard scream barbecues
i heard that Leathermouth added a new member to the band that plays the Flesh Flute.
Even better! You can go in the pool and have some sandwich and I will BBQ some veggies, it'll be spectabular!
You just reminded me of something funny.
There is a move in the Kung Fu staff form where you raise the staff close to your face, and it's called--I kid you not--Lady Ho Plays The Flute.
I laugh everytime I do it.
We all can not wait now. We are all excited, we will invite our Flesh Flute player as well.
The Army of Truth
Words? Those sounds the world despises.
Words in poems?
Even more to be disdained!
Ah, how feeble are your powers
to defend
all the truth that man denies!
Thunder crack and lightning flash
at its presence!
Hosts of angels should come swooping
down from heaven to the rescue
far and wide
spread the knowledge of its glory.
Oh, why can it not come winging
from on high?
Truth, that with a starry birth
wears a helmet brightly gleaming
wielding swords
fiercely sharp instead of feathers.
Oh, why then does it not pitch camp
tent on tent
white on every mountainside?
Oh, why then are not its heroes
strongly ranged
to keep mastery over life?
The fort of darkness is well guarded.
Superstition
rests secure on stony columns.
Numerous as Egypt's serpents
round truth's temple
range the black-clad guards of error.
Forward, though, you feeble lines!
Words are armies!
On this earth your victory
was promised by the Lord, Light's father,
when you serve
Truth itself, his child, alone.
Onward, words, you sons of truth!
En avant!
In the end the hearts of men
will be your victorious home.
Then your light
will with courage bear them on.
Forward, with your boldest faces
Words of truth!
For the greatest power on Earth
has been granted you by God:
Because never
Could you die in Truth's pure mouth!
Courage take then, all you small ones!
Truth's great cause
Only triumphs in defeat.
Storm the bitter heights of lies!
Raze them to the ground with Truth!
Oh, and that ^ is not me!
Ok, Resurrected wreck. We will make a show just for you!
OOOO! Ta, Leathermouth :)
Words? Those sounds the world despises.
Words in poems?
Even more to be disdained!
That's awesome though. ^_^ Thank you for posting that.
What the hell is a flesh flute??

Eye drops can't cure this.
Hey again, everyone. :)

Get down here and fumble with my belt buckle you innocent little thing you.
Oh, that kind of flute!

The Philosophy of Pitchforks
by Sue Owen
In the dark pit of hell,
I imagine that the pitchfork
comes in pretty handy
to hurl the evil ones
into their pitch-black places,
hurls, flings, and tosses
them down as a part of
their permanent torment there.
And as I imagine how those
sharp prongs of the pitchfork
sort and pierce, I can
almost hear the agony
of the bodies in pain, their
tongues uncurling in those
sounds of grief that rise
up to my ears like flames.
And I can imagine how
that busy pitchfork there must
feel, just doing the job
that the Devil and destiny
created for it, as it enforces
the laws of punishment,
and must remain pitiless,
because it has the dark heart
or, of course, is heartless.
Isn’t that the point here,
the plan for justice, that the
pitchfork play its part well?
TO DA WALL! ^___^
Yes my dear wife! I love feeling the innocence in your eyes! *poke poke*
that is very nice of you anon.
rw, are you ready to drop it.
hey slash
I really, really like that poem, Anonymous.
Thank you. :)
My house dogs are in the turnips,
and my yard dogs are runnin' all over the streets!
Yes my dear wife! I love feeling the innocence in your eyes! *poke poke*

For the Wannabe Poets and Writers of BlogBelieve
so you want to be a writer?
by Charles Bukowski
if it doesn't come bursting out of you
in spite of everything,
don't do it.
unless it comes unasked out of your
heart and your mind and your mouth
and your gut,
don't do it.
if you have to sit for hours
staring at your computer screen
or hunched over your
typewriter
searching for words,
don't do it.
if you're doing it for money or
fame,
don't do it.
if you're doing it because you want
women in your bed,
don't do it.
if you have to sit there and
rewrite it again and again,
don't do it.
if it's hard work just thinking about doing it,
don't do it.
if you're trying to write like somebody
else,
forget about it.
if you have to wait for it to roar out of
you,
then wait patiently.
if it never does roar out of you,
do something else.
if you first have to read it to your wife
or your girlfriend or your boyfriend
or your parents or to anybody at all,
you're not ready.
don't be like so many writers,
don't be like so many thousands of
people who call themselves writers,
don't be dull and boring and
pretentious, don't be consumed with self-
love.
the libraries of the world have
yawned themselves to
sleep
over your kind.
don't add to that.
don't do it.
unless it comes out of
your soul like a rocket,
unless being still would
drive you to madness or
suicide or murder,
don't do it.
unless the sun inside you is
burning your gut,
don't do it.
when it is truly time,
and if you have been chosen,
it will do it by
itself and it will keep on doing it
until you die or it dies in you.
there is no other way.
and there never was.
Yes, it is I, Lottie, The Curse Of Millhaven!
I've struck horror in the heart of this town,
Like my eyes ain't green and my hair ain't yeller....
It's more like the other way around!
I gotta pretty little mouth underneath all the foaming!
when it is truly time,
and if you have been chosen,
it will do it by
itself and it will keep on doing it
until you die or it dies in you.
there is no other way.

I'm keeping this.
You ain't look like you scored in quite a time. Why not come to my pad? It won't cost you a dime, Mr. Stagger Lee! But there's something I have to say before you begin: You'll have to be gone before my man Billy Dilly comes in, Mr. Stagger Lee.
did anybody watch 'the smurfs' back int he day?
I was Smurfette for Halloween.
On the third day he took me to the river
He showed me the roses and we kissed.
And the last thing I heard was a muttered word as he knelt (stood smiling) above me with a rock in his fist.

really smoke? hahahahaha i would have loved to see that. do you have a picture, and i still wanna see 'da rake'
i used to watch them before i went to school when i were younger
I'm a good girl, sir; I couldn't possibly permit you in.
Fimble
Who was the sexier smurf?
Handy Smurf or Jokey Smurf??
Yes, yes, yes, I'll walk with you a while.
Anyone remember Snorks???
It was funny. I had blue tights and a blue bodysuit with a skirt and I had white roller skates and a white stocking cap.
^_^
Da Rake will not shut up tonight. Jeez!
I want to meet SS Phantom Kitty!
And go to a Leathermouth show!
....
Splash, Solly, Princess, Star, will you PLEASE check your emails? Seriously, road trip you guys?
Anyone else northeast coast living or bound?
My heart is totally broken. Damn you MIDWEST!!!!
I'm seriously sad about this.
...
Solly, when you yell "cocksucker" no matter what, it always brings a smile to my face. :)
...
SS, random story for you. Last night my husband was making some salad concoction...and well he said he liked it 'sweet and spicy.' I seriously had to keep myself from grinning too big. Silly? Of course it is, but it's true.
You are very sweet SS. It is way cool how you always know just what to do. Smiles for one = smiles for all. It's quite remarkable really. Not many have that effect. 'ya know?
Do you know how much I would love to have a couple of my words actually make an impact? Some can, some cannot. It's cool though. The many differences in all of us here is what I love the most.
...
Someone today mentioned something about 'scrolling over' the insults. This really hit me. I feel like I should explain myself the times I have simply ignored it. Can I tell you that it takes all of my will not to say something when shit is being thrown? I've said it all before and it never seems to change anything. And sometimes it only seems to get worse. So I kind of let those that do resignate change on this blog to do their thing. Many of us, if not most of us have been slaying the vultures and the misfortunate insults for months. It is truly upsetting to read the things that are being said.
I just want it to end is all. And if someone can help do that, then I am extremely grateful.
