My own muse must be somewhere near the ocean being lazy with yours. *sigh* Tell them to come back?

Hope these are good enough.

OK, Sven... here's one I can't seem to get rid of...

"When in the course of Human Events
We've heard the lies all before..."

Happy hunting

I love the smell of napalm in the morning...

Let me see if I have any for you:

You devour my soul and leave in its place

Ice bound heart in desire's chest

Streetlamp love in thirty dollar lies

Yesterday is ash, tomorrow is smoke; only today does the fire burn.
Nil Desperandum, Fata viem invenient

Your dreaded betrayal floods me

Tears are only possible under the swell of despair

You tear me apart with your careless wants

I know not how you could claim to be a friend


I think you're probably getting too much of my emotion here.  Maybe they'll help though.  Who knows, stranger things have happened.

I don't know if today is a good day, or if yesterday was, or if tomorrow will be, but I'd like to think so.

My muse gave me this but I've been stuck as to where it goes from here...


Unfettered by the bounds of reason
Loudly I proclaim my sanity
White jacketed men smugly smile
I see in their eyes they pity me
