Get Gone

So many things...

A poem today...

You say you love



I.


You say you love; but with a voice
Chaster than a nun's, who singeth
The soft Vespers to herself
While the chime-bell ringeth -
O love me truly!


II.


You say you love; but with a smile
Cold as sunrise in September,
As you were Saint Cupid's nun,
And kept his weeks of Ember.
O love me truly!


III.


You say you love - but then your lips
Coral tinted teach no blisses.
More than coral in the sea -
They never pout for kisses -
O love me truly!


IV.


You say you love; but then your hand
No soft squeeze for squeeze returneth,
It is like a statue's dead -
While mine to passion burneth -
O love me truly!


V.


O breathe a word or two of fire!
Smile, as if those words should burn be,
Squeeze as lovers should - O kiss
And in thy heart inurn me!
O love me truly!

- - - John Keats

Notes in his Pockets...

All i have for you today is a poem. Maybe take a glimpse inside while you're here. Lets talk about it.........

Inspiration:

All I know is this: the ravens kiss my mouth,
the veins are tangled here,
the sea is made of blood.

All I know is this: the hands reaching out,
my eyes are closed,
my ears are closed,
the sky rejects my scream.

All I know is this: my nostrils drip with dreams
the hounds lap us up,
the fools laugh out,
the clock ticks out the dead.

All I know is this: my feet are sorrow here,
my words are less than lilies,
my words are clotted now:
the ravens kiss my mouth.

-Charles Bukowski

Last Caress... you know it.

So, due to my apathy and bum computer, the projects haven't been posted for a few days... Tomorrow or the next day there should be a change in that. Also, does anyone have any good insomnia cures, or while you're at it, get my head out of the clouds... Scratch that, i like it here................

Let's Go To Bed

Hello. it's a new year. Fucking huzzah. I've barely even knitted this year so far... They say that the way you spend your new year is supposed to foreshadow the year ahead... If that's true then i can only assume that this year will be a good one. I spent it with my the people that i care about more than anything. This year will be a good one, full of new and amazing inventions... And adventure. I love you guys. You are all so dear to me, and I'm so happy to have you. One day we will all be happy, i promise?... Fucking fuck this. am I dying?
