Words are our pleasure,
Words are our gain.
And yet are dishonest,
Oft bringing pain.
Words are too vague,
Unclear definitions.
Often they're given,
Their own renditions.
And what happens when,
One word can mean any.
Put two together,
And meaning's are many.
And this becomes worse,
When the...
I'm just learning the conventions of this forum, so please forgive me if I've put this in the wrong place, or made some other error. I would love to hear if the following resonates with anyone in the Forum. One of the very frustrating things I have found in life is the use of language. I do not...
My fellow students from what I can gather, seem to approach the study of genocide as if it is a bad thing. I had a thought: what if I did the required work and wrote the essays from a pro-genocide perspective? It sounds appalling but I wonder if the lecturer has hard to mark any essays from...
I live with fear evrryday. Fear that people will use and abuse me. They will cheat me. That they are hiding their true nature behind smiley faces. I am so scared of people. No one is beside me and i am so scared. I don't want to live if i will only experience pain in my life.
My parents never...
It's election time in the UK and all the fun of the (un)fair!
Except this is the flattest election in the flattest of times, there's an air of surreality covering the country. Some unfortunates have been driven so mad they've supported even the most caricatured of frogs and other cold blooded...
I think I am stuck on mental auto-pilot as far as trying to live. The auto-pilot is survival or maybe, more specifically, existing. No matter if I am in a bad situation or not, I treat it as a bad situation by default. And just go through my habitual motions. Ignoring reality and life.
I am now...
Who would be so desperate,
To read this boring rhyme?
You must have missed the other blogs,
Every single time!
Then you would have known to not,
Waste your time with this.
Instead of reading dreary prose,
This blog you could dismiss.
But just how many times do I,
Have to warn you readers?
That...
All o ye across this nation,
Raise a brolly to precipitation.
For o'er Blighty's fields o' green,
From Bristol up t'Aberdeen.
It always rains right through the year,
Everyone in waterproof gear.
Nay wonder all are miserable,
When weather is reciprocal.
Fake it, don't make it.
Your thirst - you can slake it,
If born of the lauded,
You just have to take it!
A country once proud.
Brought low by that crowd.
Strip mined of love,
Insulted out loud.
My Gramps and your granny,
Became our good nanny.
Gave all that they had,
And we sold it for fanny...
Ran out of weed yesterday and had no intention to buy more. This morning is day 1 proper without weed, as I had my last smoke yesterday morning.
Recently I've been making sure I drink enough water each day, and shying away from the usual comfort eating with unhealthy foods and snacks.
Still...
This is my third entry on autism and ageing because obviously the subject is dear to my heart. As a disability advocate, I also have a particular interest in people with disability who are older than the usual retirement age. They have considerable challenges regardless of disability. People...
I'd never call it poetry, it's only just a rhyme.
That way I can flunk it, pretty near most of the time.
Poetry is art, fine and full of feeling.
Mine's more like a fart, the smell will leave you reeling.
I wonder if I relish, making awful verse.
I suspect the rest of you will only see a curse...
Those lousy decisions, years gone past,
And naught to retain, of a splendid repast.
Mistakes were my own, the results I did mask,
I just wanted love, was that too much to ask?
But yes indeed, an arrogant hope,
But surely not such an uncommon trope?
Am I really so different from all the others...
The fantasy of a happy life,
When all around is schlock,
Is all that keeps our sanity,
And stops us falling into shock.
Why on Earth does sadness,
Outweight the polar choice?
When happiness ephemeral,
Speaks a weak and fading voice?
Abstraction be the way,
Toward enlightenment.
Reality's the...
Number 10 Through The Looking Glass!
The time has come, the PM said,
To talk of one or two things.
Of vile folk (his voice did croak),
And how corrupt are Kings?
And why we'd vote for an evil goat,
While tied like puppets on strings?
The voters cried "We'll walk with you"
"You speak to us so...
The so-called hard right in Europe such as Marine Le Pen, Nigel Farage, and their counterparts in Germany and Slovakia seem to be squishy soft in at least one important aspect. That is, their attitude towards Putin's war against Ukraine. Essentially, Ukraine is taking one for the team because...
With rotors which intrepidly revolve
Crashing through deserts like a meteor
Broken heart in a choking interior
Blind watches measured the creator
Boxes of lamb and unseen light
Where should the idea itself fly
To tame and to grow and try
To help rejuvenate these poisoned minds
Asking as if...
Why do I like to use swear words,
Surely that's just really dumb.
They say that swearing's for the birds,
But I don't know, it just seems fun.
But I think a word's a symbol,
Meaning many things to some.
Yet for me it's only nimble,
Word play for the line to come.
I have to wonder what you...
Sorry, but don't say I didn't warn you, but I say it how I see it, wrong or not.
Panic Buying
This is depressing prose,
As only the lord knows,
And so I recommend that you don't read it.
For your inevitable,
Conclusion is it's bull,
The only other option is it's -----!
Well my thoughts are...
