  • About me:Time

    Sometimes I wonder: what happened to time?
    Is it moving a little fast? Has prose defeated rhyme?
    Are the clocks now adjusted to a speedier planet?
    Or is it just me who's slow and doomed to pantomime?

    Can thieves still be punctual when they scheme to rob a bank?
    Can a soldier still be meticulous when he's summoned to queue and rank?
    Can a student still attend his exam at exactly half past seven?
    Can the dead arrive on time when angels unshut the gates of heaven?

    Does it make any difference if your wrist watch was Swiss?
    You pay a fortune for it and you think its instant bliss.
    Yet you still arrive late, so does the guy you're meeting with,
    You spot his Japanese watch and you curse your fancy myth.

    You run and drool breathlessly; you think you're mastering time.
    You miss the essence of your being and you can't see the deadly crime.
    You're always where you think is right, while you should be somewhere else,
    You express your timely achievements in the tongue of 'nickel and dime'.

    Whenever you break a heart, you've nothing but time to blame.
    Whenever you miss a chance, 'wrong timing' becomes your claim.
    Yet when time appears on your side: you waste, abuse or kill.
    Time exhumes your worst, no remorse, penitence or shame.

    The years go by and time continues playing its wicked game.
    You are clearly getting older, slower and pathetically lame.
    The sad years have passed like clouds in a windless night,
    And the happy moments went by like lightning in a blind man's sight

    Then all the clocks stop ticking, and the heart just fails to beat.
    You can hear them calling your name, but you have your maker to meet.
    an' while time weighs most on those who have it least ,
    you'll discover that time is mere illusion,tricking both man and beast.

Thursday,Sep 6 2007, 08:03:51 AMShe said...she said

She said “you’ve totally neglected me, you don‘t seem to care,
You’ve given me up for another, despite what we used to share,
I thought I ran in your blood, I thought you were addicted to me,
I feel betrayed  and defeated, you ‘re over me: I can see.

I smiled and tapped her back, moved my fingers on her well carved neck,
I gazed at her golden texture, as I recalled men she turned to wreck,
I said “It’s time we forever parted, though you’re the tastiest I knew or shall”,
As the barman grabbed her, whispering: “are you done with Chivas Regal?”!

Chivas Regal: A famous Scotch whiskey.

Wednesday,Sep 5 2007, 01:43:16 AMThe Quest

I wake up every morning in pools of grief and sorrow,
my body feels so heavy, my soul craves for tomorrow,
for tomorrow may bring some joy and cast the sadness away,
yet tomorrow’s just a notion, it’s never a definitive day! ...

It was a dark and misty afternoon,
the eighth of December of last year,
I’ve paid the nine to five dues,
An’ craved to grab a cold beer. ...

Romance in the air
1.27.07
Everyday a little romance fills my head hope in disguise
my mind tip toes foundling clouds touching the sky
bathed in warm shimmering light I lay and raise
the ocean‘s scent on my backyard perfumes my life
countless moons cannot outshine memories of your smile
devilish chills feel so divine rushing down my
spine
Everyday a dash of romance in the air is all I ask

"In My Secret Life"
by Leonard Cohen
I saw you this morning.
You were moving so fast.
Can’t seem to loosen my grip
On the past.
And I miss you so much.
There’s no one in sight.
And we’re still making love
In My Secret Life.

I smile when I’m angry.
I cheat and I lie.
I do what I have to do
To get by.
But I know what is wrong,
And I know what is right.
And I’d die for the truth
In My Secret Life.

Hold on, hold on, my brother.
My sister, hold on tight.
I finally got my orders.
I’ll be marching through the morning,
Marching through the night,
Moving cross the borders
Of My Secret Life.

Looked through the paper.
Makes you want to cry.
Nobody cares if the people
Live or die.
And the dealer wants you thinking
That it’s either black or white.
Thank G-d it’s not that simple
In My Secret Life.

I bite my lip.
I buy what I’m told:
From the latest hit,
To the wisdom of old.
But I’m always alone.
And my heart is like ice.
And it’s crowded and cold
In My Secret Life.

Hi Jessie, I'm doing well. I just noticed your message. I still spend some time on Zorpia. But I've found other sites that take up time as well. My latest disguise is Thomas Manivox. Think I'll keep it that way for awhile.
