[Forget Me Not]

that when you look at the sky at night you are techinically time travelling, to make myself clearer the speed of light is 299,792,458 metres per second (1,079,252,849 km/h) and the distance of the Earth from the Sun is 93 million miles, this means it takes 8.3 minutes for light from the Sun to reach Earth. Now if you took the same principle and extrapolated from it that could mean that the stars you see in the sky are actually the image of them from hundreds or thousands of years ago. Don’t know about you but I find that pretty neat

[Forget Me Not]

The Spider crawls
insidiously up my spine
and with fang and claw
burrows into the darkness of my mind

Amongst the psyche’s clockwork
it spins its web of silken lies,
catching ghost like thoughts
and gourges on their insides

its fiery venom
rages through my fibre
severing the flesh from Mind,
its pincers latch on tighter

my eyes are cold and lifeless
I stare, empty inside and sightless
my mouth silently forms my dirge
but from my lips passes not a word

I take the counsel of a dear friend
dowsing my soul, I find an answer
and, revelation found, cast out Cancer,
my silent tormenter meets its end

[Forget Me Not]

the seconds stretch into eternity,
looking at a blank screen.
Indescision and doubt
cascade through my mind

The perfect words so hard to find
tentatively my fingers reach out
blindly searching for my muse
with each falling keystroke

“Oh what a joke…”
whispers some part of my mind
“thinking that perfection comes
with the passing of mortal time”

difficult to find the rhyme
to cease my own unrest
becoming harder to auger
the next stanza…
… though I try my best

didn’t Elton John once demand that the internet should be shut down or something similar?

Go Bon Bon!

That is the stupidest thing that I have ever heard. I’m surprised the judge actually accepted such absurd grounds for legal action

got home and my brother-in-law that was house sitting says he attacked a guy in the street, the guy apparently called cops but decided not to do anything else about him, so i’m really not holding out any hope of him being re-homed :?

that’s one violent brother-in-law you’ve got there :wink: :lol:

Clockwork and spiders
that is all that is left as
the world screams its dirge

called to mind by a special
poem or lyric
