is WWW!!
Um, not the Web:S The OTHER WWW!
WHAT
WOMEN
WEAR
I haven't seen so much glistening cleavage, bare legs, sandal-ed feet, semitransparent sun-dresses in, what . . . like well, since last summer. And waiting this long makes a guy crazy!
technically, not ALL dead, but . . .
I found a website for my Alumni Association. One guy died the year we graduated, apparently. I guess it's safe to say I left and basically never looked back. I am surprised how many show City's near me. But honestly, I don't care. Nor do they. No one does.
The Song Remains the Same.
talking to a group of 300+ while getting your ass chewed on, is, BION, not the worst part. The worst part - so far - is being tired this next morning, therefor cranky, therefor not wanting to hear incessant talking, nor wanting to ride behind someone doing 40 mph all the way to the office. So what, it's freakin' snowin'! It's March, get over it already!!!
Actually, maybe thw worst part is not being able to fine any good tunes on the way to work . . .
after you're dead will they forget you?
The edge between you and I is no chasm . . . but a divide none the less. Neither is comfortable with me, and that's to be expected. Of course, I have the power, at least on paper.
So, let's talk about you. How many ways have you tried to drown out the voice? When do you hear it especially? Have you ever tried to confront it? Is it always the same, or does it morph? Does it get louder with age, or have your ears numbed to its pain?
When you dream, do you see fields of clover? Or empty city streets? Can the sun burn through the veil, or does the blue sky only reflect a portion of the expanse of your eyes? When especially does the tragedy of such beauty weigh so mightily upon your soul?
No questions about trades, since they are wearisome, and futile. How far can you reach? When did you last inflict pain, and how did it taste?
Could you ever just walk away?
On the turning away
From the pale and downtrodden
And the words they say
Which we won't understand
"Don't accept that what's happening
Is just a case of others' suffering
Or you'll find that you're joining in
The turning away"
It's a sin that somehow
Light is changing to shadow
And casting it's shroud
Over all we have known
Unaware how the ranks have grown
Driven on by a heart of stone
We could find that we're all alone
In the dream of the proud
On the wings of the night
As the daytime is stirring
Where the speechless unite
In a silent accord
Using words you will find are strange
And mesmerised as they light the flame
Feel the new wind of change
On the wings of the night
No more turning away
From the weak and the weary
No more turning away
From the coldness inside
Just a world that we all must share
It's not enough just to stand and stare
Is it only a dream that there'll be
No more turning away?
where I am, it just is not comfortable. It must have started out that way. It must have filled some need. . . .made me think I had a need which it was fulfilling. But the brutal truth is, it's not. No one can need this. Not even me. I really would just like to go home.
