    I'm so sorry you're in a tight spot, Darcy. I'm stuck too. It can be an awful feeling. I really hope things turn around for you.

    I am thinking this: Who invented the concept of Lepricorns.
    It would help to get me writing something about them.
    it may never try
    but when it does it sigh
    it is just that
    good
    it fly

    Many things exist as mere pointless concepts, as illusory ideals, and wisdom is likely to be the worst.

    I wonder if you meant leprechaun. If so, the inventors were the ancient Irish.

    A lot can change in 2 years.
    the luminous grass of the prairie hides
    feet lovely and still as sleeping doves,
    porcelain bones strong enough to carry a life,
    but weighty and unmovable
    As black Dakota hills.

    Yay, a night shift! True, most of the customers are drunk, and there are always plenty of jerks and perverts among them, but at least there's usually plenty of time to read in between the customers (unlike during the daytime, when I might have over 500 custemers during one shift).

    Why can't some right words come out of my mouth when required? Why do I keep embarrassing myself?

    So, the moment to realise I was really, really, really lucky just now has come. Sadly it coincides with the moment of realising what a guileless idiot I am.
    There was a knock on the next door just now and what I did was: I assumed it was going to be a handyman (currently working in the house), opened the door to my parents' apartment, took a look and when I didn't see anything, I opened the steel lattice door and stepped outside.
    I was met by an elderly woman looking lost and responding to my queries of “Can I help you? Are you looking for someone?" with something in, well, possibly Bulgarian or something. And whilst I was trying to decide what to do, I suddenly heard a man calling to her and - well, when she turned away from me, that was the moment our cleaning lady decided that it would be a good idea if I stepped back in and locked the door, so she could explain to me that the people outside were most probably attempting a burglary.
    My parents whom I called agree with this assertion.
    So ... oops!

    Thinking of these lines -

    'I want the poem to begin
    From the tip of your eyelashes
    And flow through the night.'

    And about the person who wrote it. Calls himself a misanthrope. Can a misanthrope write these beautiful lines?

    Maximilianus as always I am grateful to you.
    I did mean leprechaun indeed thank you for correcting me.
    Irish ah that makes sense now. The first time it was mentioned to me about a leprechaun was in Ireland. I never put two and two together.
    it may never try
    but when it does it sigh
    it is just that
    good
    it fly

    Or may be about an alien.
