~The Dragon Flies' Lair IV~
November 7, 2003 | bentfeather

Posted on 11/07/2003 5:42:23 AM PST by Soaring Feather

My Dragon Fly and Me

If I could be a Dragon Fly
and wing my way through the sky
I would never be shy
just me and my Dragon Fly!

By moonlight we ride the wind
chase the comets tail for fun
by day we would hide from the sun
our fragile wings would come undone

On darkest nights we would use
fireflies as our guide
we would dip and we would glide
through the heavens open wide
and scatter diamonds in the night sky
my Dragon Fly and I...

And we would wing past our lovers
silent in the night...
to kiss their face in our flight
much to their surprise and delight
my Dragon Fly and me in sight...

Such a view do we share
away up here in the air
of breezes soft through our hair
my Dragon Fly and me a pair...

Yeah, I have written stuff like that, especially anger on the job. Could not let go of it there so I wrote about it.

Some stuff is written because my personal ghosts won't eave me alone until I write it down.
Then they go their merry way until they come back with a new request.

In that case, you better hope there is no snow on the ground next time I see you. :)

Seether - Driven Under


Do you think I’m fakin'
when I’m lying next to you?
Do you think that I am blind
nothing left for me to lose?
Must be something on your mind
something lost and left behind
Do you know I’m fakin' now?

Do you know I’m fakin'
when I’m lying next to you?
Do you know that I am blind to everything you ever do?
Must be something on your mind
something lost for me to find
Do you know I’m fakin'?

Then she told me she had a gun
it sounded like she'd used it once before on him
Then she told me she had a gun
it sounded like she’d used it once before, oh man

I guess you know I’m fakin'
when I tell you I love you
I guess you know that I am blind
to everything you say and do
Must be something on my mind
there’s nothing left for me to hide
Do you know I’m fakin'?

Then she told me she had a gun
it sounded like she’d used it once before on him
Then she told me she had a gun
it sounded like she’d used it once before, oh man

We have to succumb to the feelings we can never face
I need you. I breathe you.
I can’t go through this all again.
We have to succumb to the feelings we can never face.
I need you. I breathe you.
I can’t go through this…

Then she told me she had a gun
it sounded like she’d used it once before

Then she told me she had a gun
it sounded like she’d used it once before on him
Then she told me she had a gun
it sounded like she’d used it once before, oh man
Then she told me she had a gun
she says she wants to use it on me now…

A song, from the game Gran Turisimo.

The Cardigans - Paralyzed

From the album "Gran Turismo"




This is where your sanity gives in
and love begins
Never lose your grip
don't trip
don't fall
you'll lose it all
The sweetest way to die
It lies deep inside
you can not hide
it's the meanest fire
Oh it's a strange desire
you can not lie
that's a needless fight
This is where your sanity gives in
and love begins
Never lose your grip
don't trip
don't fall
you'll lose it all
The sweetest way to die
When your blood runs dry
you're paralyzed
it will eat your mind
Did you hold it back
It comes to you in slow attacks
It's the meanest fire
This is where your sanity gives in
and love begins
Never lose your grip
don't trip
don't fall
you'll lose it all
This is where your sanity gives in
and love begins
Never lose your grip
don't trip
don't fall
you'll lose it all
This is where your sanity gives in
and love begins
Never lose your grip
don't trip
don't fall
you'll lose it all
The sweetest way to die

Going to bunk down.
'arete' is being an apologist for leftist commies on another thread, and I'm dragging at the moment.

Good night poets.
Dream A Little ~Love A Lot~

When darkness is found beneath
the horizon
we desire twilight love
mocking the blinding moon
laughing
over a nightmare...

Radu, Phil Collins is waiting for you.
