You poured your philosophy like
Another double at the table
In bad company your closed opinions
Were all abandon.
Seventy-nine was the drunken revolt
Anarchy years on the immortal edge
The aggressive narcissistic pulse of youth
- that's you.
I imagine your golden halo baby eyes
Disturbing the innocent
Corrupting the peace;
Responsibility is for the meek,
Even me, caused by you, your seed.
When nature ruptured herself a child you
held perfection in your arms and starched towels.
Later, teaching me the art of mischief and laughing.
Falling at the foot of convention I grew apologetic
And subservient - the good girl.

First there were five,
On the island of old,
Eager in stride,
'Cross the beaches of gold;
'Cross the beaches of gold,
On the island of old,
Into the unknown,
Where chill shadows are thrown.

Then Nmar with his cry,
Of a warrior strong,
Chose the Grasslands to Grace,
With his Warrior song,
'Lo,
He searched in the rushs,
The reeds and the bushes,
For the others,
The horses,
To take for his own,
But as the sun downed,
And the moon came around,
Not hooves but great wingbeats,
Did rupture the night.

Brave Nmar he looked up,
As high as he could,
What terror what fright,
For up there in flight,
Were dragons,
Ay
Donmarim Donmarim,
Where are thy sands?
They lie in the west,
At the edge of these lands.
Donmarim Donmarim,
Who thundered there?
T'was Mir swift as moonshine,
Prince without care.
Donmarim Donmarim,
Where has he gone?
He's gone to the mountains,
Where his soul was undone.
Donmarim Donmarim,
What was his crime?
He outran the wind,
May the lesson be thine.
Donmarim Donmarim,
What has he become?
A shadow in tatters,
Coreless and numb.
Donmarim Donmarim,
I've heard his song,
It's empty and sordid,
So lonely and long,
He sings of the sea,
In a tearful tongue,
He is lost in mountains,
And do
I feel my spirit recoiling slowly,
Cramping away at the very back of me,
Eyes closing when reflected,
In obtrusive mirrors,
Which summarise outer imperfection,
Rouse inner fears.
And there are so many tears,
So many tears,
That flow like wine from scarlet eyes,
To take in again ready for another time,
When my throat is parched from silence,
And I am unable to look my neighbours in the face.
My lips are torn from shredded oaths,
I've half a personality I do not wish to know,
So many tears,
Each sin a sickly glob of salty water,
I am begging for drought before I am drowned
In a flood of inadequacy,

Ha, as if I am active enough to complete this! But could be fun.

Rules : The 1st player of this "game" starts with the topic "6 weird habits/things about yourself" and people who get tagged need to write a journal about their 6 weird habits/things as well as state this rule clearly. In the end, you need to choose the next 6 people to be tagged and list their names. Don't forget to leave a comment that says "you are tagged" in their devpage comments and tell them to read yours....
Ok:
1. Negative remarks - I can respond to everything with a negative, when I'm depressed it gets so much worse too.
2. When I'm writing pen to paper, I sometimes mispell wo
Hey, I love the Moth drawing - would like to use it as a logo for my new coaching business - I think that a moth is a beautiful symbol of misunderstood beauty and transformation and this is the most absolutely beautiful image of a moth. As I am just starting I do not have much money to pay you so maybe we could do a trade? You can reach me at agevenson at hotmail.com
Hey, I've absolutely adored your moth drawing for a while now, and just recently got a deviant account. I just wanted to show you that i loved it so much i got a tat of it. Sorry i didn't ask for your permission.
