Christmas and New Years Madness

I’m sure it has been discussed and ranted and raved for many many years. Yes, I’m talking about the silliness which kicks into even the most normal of person around the end of the year. I’m going to put another spin on this by saying I quite like this madness. Don’t get me wrong here [...]

Thriller killer

It was a little surreal waking up to hear the news of MJ passing away. Especially knowing his farewell tour was only a few weeks away in London. What a way to leave.
Michael Jackson – Human Nature
Looking out
Across the night-time
The city winks a sleepless eye
Hear her voice
Shake my window
Sweet seducing sighs
Get me out
Into the night-time
Four [...]

And the tune went…

Tricky – Pumpkin
Pumpkin
you’re hollow within
More how I’m to slowly
let their harm
Give us some
It’s sad until
Like flowers untamed
Shine out ends
I find what will make him
Love me
Life is our find
Hollow is he
I can’t breathe and I can’t see
MTV moves too fast, I refuse to understand
You go your way and I’ll see mine
Feels like wasted time
And it feels [...]

Wish I had a speech like this at Uni

A quoi bon dire

Seventeen years ago you said
Something that sounded like Good-bye;
And everybody thinks that you are dead,
But I.
So I, as I grow stiff and cold
To this and that say Good-bye too;
And everybody sees that I am old
But you.
And one [...]

Can diagrams explain the meaning of life ?

People keep asking me questions about life.
Summarized the questions are why, how and what?
And I always tell them. These are the top words in teenage poetry albums. But you have to face that teenagers like coffee and lets say the stock market are things which won’t stay hot forever. But speaking of forever, its obvious [...]

Ode to the nice guy/gal

This is a tribute to the nice guys. The nice guys that finish last, that never become more than friends, that endure hours of whining and bitching about what assholes guys are, while disproving the very point. This is dedicated to those guys who always provide a shoulder to lean on but restrain themselves to [...]
