    Floating
    adrift in air,
    ridges displayed unique
    anthills white and the busy specks,
    snow falls.
    and somehow a dog
    has taken itself & its tail considerably away
    into the mountains or sea or sky, leaving
    behind: me, wag.
    - John Berryman

    Snow falls
    Just in daydreams
    With ant-like proportions
    We miss out on chocolate skies
    Sometimes.

    Reprieve!
    The test postponed!
    I've time to read the book
    and learn a few good quotations;
    Or not.
    Voices mysterious far and near,
    Sound of the wind and sound of the sea,
    Are calling and whispering in my ear,
    Whifflingpin! Why stayest thou here?

    Thank you, Riesa!

    or not
    to be—that is the line
    from Hamlet most quoted—
    A question of existence? Yes?
    Or no?
    Some of us laugh
    Some of us cry
    Some of us smoke
    Some of us lie
    But it's all just the way
    that we cope with our lives...

    Or no?
    Traveling so
    Can only be danger
    For someone like you in her clothes
    My dear.

    My dear
    dear grandchildren
    lighten my waking hours
    and fill my dreams with happiness
    and joy
    Voices mysterious far and near,
    Sound of the wind and sound of the sea,
    Are calling and whispering in my ear,
    Whifflingpin! Why stayest thou here?

    and joy
    peace, love, hope, faith—
    against such can no law
    bring any fault evil, profane, ugly—
    tranquil
    Some of us laugh
    Some of us cry
    Some of us smoke
    Some of us lie
    But it's all just the way
    that we cope with our lives...

    tranquil -
    watching the sun going up,
    blinded -
    by your handsome bright smile -
    gentle-
    Destiny isn't a matter of chance, it is a matter of choice; it is not a thing to be waited for, it is a thing to be achieved.


    Нужна всего одна минута, что бы заметить особенного человека, всего один час что бы его понять,всего один день что бы полюбить...... И целая жизнь что бы забыть.....

    gentle
    maiden linger
    whisper secrets to me
    tell me of your fondest wishes—
    just smile…

    Some of us laugh

    Some of us smoke
    Some of us lie

    Just smile
    maddeningly
    at your best enemy
    when he hits you in the playground.
    Revenge.
    Voices mysterious far and near,
    Sound of the wind and sound of the sea,
    Are calling and whispering in my ear,
    Whifflingpin! Why stayest thou here?

    Revenge
    That horrid trait
    Which tears all men apart
    Blindly shattering all the good
    In me
    "...thought is the arrow of time, memory never fades."

    Brainstrain, you are a person after my own heart. I love Wicked.

    In me
    Something is there
    More than just exciting
    Like curvatures of my ideas --
    Suspense.

    Suspense
    Will she, or not?
    Pick a daisy, ask it.
    Oh, she loves me, she loves me not!
    Horrors!
    Some of us laugh
    Some of us cry
    Some of us smoke
    Some of us lie
    But it's all just the way

    Horrors
    oppress me not;
    but sweet things and cloying
    ensnare my lively spirit's wings
    like lime.
    Voices mysterious far and near,
    Sound of the wind and sound of the sea,
    Are calling and whispering in my ear,
    Whifflingpin! Why stayest thou here?
