Beware the illuminati my friend they may twinkle, twinkle like a star but the are not the beneficent doers of good you think them to be. They are like the old woman living in a shoe cramped in their quarters without a bone of charity stripped by four and twenty blackbirds not enough left to give to the dog. There is no plum of knowledge that can be pulled out and savoured only Jack Horner screaming in the corner, while there is no fat for the other Jack to eat lean is the colour of their heart and cold, cold as the north wind that blows. The cow found out about their standards they had him jumping over the moon to meet them and still they weren't satisfied. The dish had to run away to protect the spoon because they never give up. And like little boy blue they blow their horn to bring in the sheep and cows, even black sheep, baa, baa have been gathered in. But there is no safe pasture in their fold, no baker of fresh bread of new ideas no candlestick maker not even a candle to light you to bed only a butcher to chop off your head. While you may say fiddle dee, dee to me all you birds of a feather flock to their doors to light the windows, with wee willies winking and crying in the night. Locking up the children in their beds to keep them safe. Mary has to be contrary to protect her mind because the blood of an Englishman is ground down to form the new bread of conformity. where all who don't say their prayers are taken by the left leg and thrown down into lady's chambers and held there. Everything they teach is higgledy piggledy, with Jack and Jill tumbling down for their ideals, Peter, eating pumpkin and losing wives to the cause, where not only the mouse is running blind and scared as the clock strikes one and we ask "How many miles to Babylon?" Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind. Unknown [This message has been edited by Kethry (12-04-2005 12:17 AM).] |

Ed, it doesn't compare with yours but it's a start. Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind. Unknown |

Keth, this is what writing's all about. You have done so brilliantly. it's extremely unique and creative and I am impressed beyond words - by far the best I have ever seen from you. Wish I had thought of it |
