Disappointment comes
from my class, and teacher, too,
when I dare to try.

I don't want to fence
or finish any homework.
I just want to sleep.

Still, I have to smile
at my "favorite co-pilot"
as Mesh has named him. ;)
Love and Light

too much play and not
enough work means I'm overwhelmed,
underpaid and dead.
Got a poem or short story you want me to critique?

There is only one success: to be able to spend your life in your own way, and not to give others absurd maddening claims upon it. (C D Morley)

Ancient bruises seem
to never quite heal right; still
I'd love to see you.
and don't get me wrong, dear, in general I'm doing just fine
it's just when it's summer in the city--and you're so long gone from the city--
I start to miss you, baby, sometimes

don't listen to what they say.

This is a "TMI" haiku.

I must urinate.
Wal-Mart bathrooms are closed
Yes! Got home in time!

:lol: The bathrooms were being cleaned. Somehow we managed to miss every light on the way home, as if the entire system were conspiring against me. Not that I'm the paranoid sort or anything...

The grass is greener,
that fence is in your way.
If only I could climb.

morning time wasting
don't want to write this essay
let's count syllables
you should know i am a time traveler &
there is no season as achingly temporary as now
but i have promised to return

there is no season as achingly temporary as now
but i have promised to return

reading old forums,
debate a double reply
or let old poems lie...

I lingered round them, under that benign sky: watched the moths fluttering among the heath and harebells, listened to the soft wind breathing through the grass, and wondered how any one could ever imagine unquiet slumbers for the sleepers in that quiet earth.
