    For I have known them all already, known them all:
    Have known the evenings, mornings, afternoons,
    I have measured out my life with coffee spoons;
    I know the voices dying with a dying fall
    Beneath the music from a farther room.

    So how should I presume?

    Don't worry, and thank you

    One of my faves by you: "You see girls as energy drinks; exciting, addictive, and mass produced for your own pleasure." There are others of course, including the ones implicit in your poems.

    Hehe. Thankyou. I love that. Wonderful in an arguement.
    I wrote another poem, it is in my blog.

    Silence is the sound of dread.
    The Moments of Dominion
    That happen on the Soul
    And leave it with a Discontent
    Too exquisite — to tell —
    -Emily Dickinson

    I know, like whenever my parents call me into the room and everyone is silent, I know I've done something wrong.
    Only when that happens I have learnt never to start blurting out my secrets until they say what it is, in case I add something extra.

    That is sound of dread number one, number two is the Jaws theme song.
    Number three is the first 2 1/2 beats of the song Thriller repeating themselves over and over again on a scratched record.

    There's a whimsical "f" in "Life". To some it stands for "frozen". To some it means "fast forward".

    First people to be known... your enemies. First enemy to be known... step in front of a mirror.

    Those who complain about their family have not yet met the families of others. Those who proudly speak about their family have not yet met the families of others.

    Oh, alright, since the swarming masses demanded it, here are three pithy sayings I've come up with:
    • According to spelling conventions, the word law could be spelled L-A-U-G-H.
    • I have a lot in common with my parents: what I didn't get genetically was passed down through will.
    • Dear Mr. Sandburg, the fog does not have feet.

    That last one is really, truly a poem-letter to Carl Sandburg. Oddly enough, he never wrote back.

    Henry David Thoreau once said that "It's not my duty to make the world I live in a better place or a worse one. It is my goal to live in it."

    Along those rough lines.

    Most logical words ever said.

    "A fly could fear to dive into a milky sea, to never be able to take off again, and yet it takes the dive, swims, sinks, drowns, dies, and then another fly will do the same some day. We will never spot a fly in fear of an alien sea".

    Something I've though of recently:
    "Women look to better the situation; men look for a better situation."
    And that comes from 13yrs of life experience.
    For I have known them all already, known them all:
    Have known the evenings, mornings, afternoons,
    I have measured out my life with coffee spoons;
    I know the voices dying with a dying fall
    Beneath the music from a farther room.
