Hello.

I was going to submit something new today, for the first time in almost 2 years. I cannot believe the crap I am expected to go through just to do that. 4 subcatagories, keywords, an excerpt from the poem. There is probable an essay question after that but I didn't go any further. Maybe I will waste my time some other day and then again maybe I won't.

I want to say hi to everyone I shared time with on this site and let you all know that you never left my thoughts. I am going through a bit of a rough time right now but I hope to be back communicating with you all soon.

Karl.

I wish I could live on the road just travelling and not worrying about money, women, and assorted obligations that just seem as gray clouds and evening falling over the perfect sunny day.

I am glad to be back here, hopefully not all of you have forgotten me. I will be around commenting as time permits.


"Here I lay
Still I'm breathless
Just like always
Still a ways from home
Mirror sideways
Who cares whats behind
Just like always
Still your passenger
Chrome buttons, buckles and leather surfaces
Dreams and other lucky witnesses
There to calm me
This time won't you please
Drive faster
Roll the window down
This cool night air is curious
Let the whole world look in
Who cares who sees anything
I'm your passenger
Drop these down then
Put them on me
Nice cool seats
There to cushion you and me
There to calm me
Take me around again
Don't pull over
This time won't you please
Drive faster
Roll the window down
This cool night air is curious
Let the whole world look in
Who cares who sees whats at night
Through these misty windows
Down to catch my breath and then
Go and go and go
Drive me home and back again

Here I lay
Just like always
Don't let me go
Take me to the edge."

Passenger.

"In dreams
I think of you
Don't know what to do
With myself
Time has let me down
As she brings broken dreams
And fallen stars
The endless search
For where you are...

Sail on
Sail on"

Just seems like a stupid emoticon to have. Then again maybe suicide isn't quite as disgusting to others as it is to me.

"I don't mind stealing bread
From the mouths of decadence
But I can't feed on the powerless
When my cups already overfilled"



"If somebody left you
Out on a ledge
If somebody pushed you
Over the edge
If somebody loved you
And left you for dead
You got to hold on to your time
And break through
These times of trouble"

Going to see about becoming a Fireman tomorrow. I have a need to do something more meaningful and worthwhile.

Wish me luck please.

"Take my hand my child of love
Come step inside my tears
Swim the magic ocean
I've been crying all these years
With our love we'll ride away
into eternal skies
A symptom of the universe
A love that never dies"

O.O.

"When the dream came
I held my breath
with my eyes closed
I went insane
Like a smoke gray day
When the wind blows
Now I won't be back 'til
later on
If I do come back at all."
