or my bad meeeediator of the page, of this age , of my rage,, that there never was any of give me a glaze and a smile and a macchiotto thank you my friend , for feeding me right to me end

moderate my page, sell my soul for a shiny plastic rage, i csn look at anytime i want. or put it in a box and sell it back. to the big co. with the big mans hat, and his oh so yellow cape no escape for these prttey days

or just play some ,,,, nina simone" feelin good" and shut up

this warms my belly while yo u warm my soul in a way for off and distant light this night is like a million dream fragments shrieking past, gonna last, far off in time will tell all is well, watch the ocean swell, for love beauty and life as well full of wishes tossed by hopefuls emptying their pockets full of sand but each grain a memory baby let it be here with me here where we belong to an honest emptiness like the zen Buddhist to all the meaningful moments where feeling overwhelmed us and we drank it in this world where we are the center of the maze, for so i thought i felt i had won this because we deserve this changing of bells for all joy for a new chance with a stamp, we have won

Hi Harvey and everyone who stop by,

hope your ok ? I'm good but was feeling under pressure recently and overwhelmed but getting back on track,now guess life can be tough, but same for each and everyone of us ....

your previous stuff was good harvey but bit confusing but more i read it, the more the colours shine out..
glad you liked my previous stuff, though I don't think I write in tongues my understanding of it is, if you get it great but if not it's ok it's the same with everything...
like music or abstract art,sometimes it takes a few plays.. or maybe you just need to accept it and let the ideas flow, anyway that's my take on it if you know what i mean .........

sorry for my long absence, didn't mean to just that life gets in the way,my Uni course is taking over my time and energy, with so much to do, and not even time,
but I have to remember to do the stuff I like as well, so here's a new song that I wrote yesterday... (the coda takes one of Ray's quote's
"do what you love, and love the things you do.."
I love that mantra.....love it a lot...


here's song words.....


The light from within


last night I was ok
today I feel old.
won't somebody help me,
show me the road.

no I don't want to make you sad,
I'll be ok in awhile
it's just every now and then
I tend to over load.
like you do.. ooh like I do..

today it's shining
tomorrow maybe cold.
but I've got you beside me
so I'm feelin' bold.

An in the end is it worth it,
to punish the soul
cause we're all friends here
we can carry this load
like you do..ooh like I do . x 2

Be a friend tonight, tend to your soul tonight
be a friend to your soul....

CODA* Do what you love,
love the things you do
Do what you love,
love the things you do

and when the morning comes you will know
and when the morning calls you will know...

the light from within is beautiful
the light within can be so beautiful..

CODA* do what you love, do the things you love.


cheers, I'll check in again soon
Dave
ps, be good to see your new stuff and as always
also be nice to see some new stuff from other members, let it flow,,,,

inheritance


sometimes time seems like a vagabond
stumping for undue credit
from a plywood platform.
"see all the benefits of change,
and how the seasons polish reason
until it shines with self assurance."

but time has no memory beyond the beginning,
so the foundation is taken for granted;
and granted less than its due.

since the love of beauty and justice
is part of a recipe mixed purposefully
to the tune of hope and decision,
let what has been continue to stand
and acknowledge the blessing of deep roots.

i get empty.... i get scattered .....time is of the essence ... love is all that matters.

i watch crazy things on this portable community , i watch things like the "love police" , and i smile. i hear rationality in the most unlikely places , served with a side of insanity. tell me about reptiles in the moon , as long as you speak with passion . thank god , when did truth become old fashioned . i got headlines i got captions , i got a magic hat that i wear when i wanna see through the static . is it wrong to bang, bang, bang on the gong just to hear the sound and feel it pass through me, feel the ripples that connect me to you. trumpet the truth that you feel , there is no equivalent . or else it's your life through a continuously thicker tint of bullshit . take a hint . turn fish and swim .

catharsis

hey critter..welcome..that was deep i liked it alot.

a depth charge , to the very center of our hearts. if your not crying , i'll cry for you . god . i cant even look anymore . and it feels to be the beginning of the pain . shockwaves . mighty fucking shockwaves . after being jaded to complete complacency . shocked to a stunned reality . where the fuck is HE . where in hell were we . somebody kick these sickopaths off the wheels , slam the fucking breaks till it stops .
is there some silver or a stake ? these heartless fakes . i know , i know i swallowed it whole , that black hole ,fed through a vacuum tube , like every other one , but i've lost my appetite , regurgitation is a must

man . i'd like to apologize to this board for some of the stupid crap i've written on here . that was one of the worst of them . i'm gonna take a little break from mindlessly writing whtever seems to flow forth . after re reading this whole thing over a few times . i see how incredibly self indulgent and rude most of it has been . that wasnt my intention . consider me fully embarrassed and ashamed .

Never be ashamed of creativity!

Apology accepted!

hi harvey, and crew,
how are you keeping ? I'm not so good, not had good health of lately and past 6 weeks as been diagnosed with rare skin disease,the doc's thought it was ezcema but is now more serious and know as "pityriasis ruibra pilaris" and slthough it's not life threathning it's making my life hard and very painful to say the least, it was triggered by a hospital scan drug(s) & consequental tests and injections,but impossible to prove it !! But made worst by my own body's reaction to it and heavy stress factors , but it's basically a red, dry, scaly skin condition that eventually covers the whole of your body head to toes and it's going that wayt for me now, I'mn trying to keep optomistic and get on with things, but been house bound for weeks and not been able to go to work, Uni or even outside to local shop takes it's toll on me.
But it's good to see there's not been a big reaction or challenmge to what you wrote harvey, and yes i guess we can all appreciate that, as we can all can say and do things we don't mean , i know i have,,,but good to see there's not a back lash and nothing silly's been added, ,,,,so anyway just though i'd contact you and say good luck with things, I'm going intro hospital tommorow for a week or so of intensive and progressive medical treeatment in a dermatoligist/specialist ward so just hoping i can get this conduition under control and get my life back on track,.
almost forgot to say i liked the poem by new contrubuter critter, really good stuff, i'll put some new stuff of mine when i'm feeling in better health, but good luck to you all, cheers Dave
ps look after yourselves....

dave/l'pool,
Please take care. If you think about it, ask your phsyician about supplements you could take, for example a B-Complex (for stress) and a multi-oil or fish oil capsule (for inflamation). These may be helpful, but please get with your doctor about them first.
And of course take some Bradbury with you to the hospital. Take care.
