Well it's the second day of work experience. I am convinced that my brain has turned into a pile of gloop, from the photocopier smell and complete boredom. If this keeps up, I will start looking forward to the next season of Australian Idol or something.


My internet life is really beginning to suffer, as well as RL. I need social contact. I CRAVE social contact. Just to meet up with ONE of my friends would be nice, but it seems that we're all busy -sighs to self-


In other areas, I want all old folks to get away from the stripclubs, and back to donating their money to the gaming industry.


Oh, and the train made me really late. Thanks for making me look unprofessional, bastard.

 

And now it's poem time ^_^

 

 

It all seemed so blurry
something unreachable
as I watched my gifts fade
ripped apart
by a growing monster.


A shadow of my former self
that's all I've become
trying to conform
an actor failing miserbly.


Was this all I wanted
as the lights blind meslowly
sucking the life out
drying the wells of creativity.


I've ignored myself far too long
as the voice inside
falls silent
for yet another day.
My former companion, wandering the mists
lost without you.


I could pray to the empty sky
for your return.
But nothing around shall hear my cry
Nothing moves, nothing cares
about the ramblings of a lost mortal.


Would it even matter
beyond these realms
if I were to stop my search
and let them take over
replace my tales
with second-rate rubbish.


Maybe sometime in the night
I shall hear you
Prehaps you shall end this curse
and return my soul.

Here are two of my latest poems.  Remind me to update more often....

 

Death riders, death riders
soul stolen many years ago
Rush though the fairy meadow
rush through the fairy meadow
no time to stop.
Hold on tight, time's at an end


Rush rush
as the steel city takes your soul
Rush
as the steel city takes your soul
and you become a death rider.


Let your hollowness
be shown
Let it breathe
as it yearns, yearns
to be free once more.


Rush through the fairy meadow
and let the steel fade.
let it fade away
let it fade.

=======================

Rat in a cage, rat in a cage
nibble your treat, follow the maze
hold your nose high
as we sit and stare.


Rat in a cage, rat in a cage
get lost in this lie
it's not much, y'know
to follow your craving.


Follow your nose
smell your reward
pull the lever
grab and run
hide and seek
what you shall find
all for simplistic amusement.


Rat in a cage, rat in a cage
cry and howl inside
for your reward
is my bidding

Do you dare struggle
against rising fever
against everything you heard
watching sickness ravage
against this dismal backdrop.


do I dare to breathe?
as I still lie here
wondering if these visions do ring true
of a cold touch
blowing down my skin.


they lie in wake
let it all take hold
because rest
is a thing of the past
let it ring true
and the sprits die


But will that stop the screaming
on bitter nights
as this fever ravages some more

just thought you'd like to know
those monsters were real

Fear Itself : A Novel

I went to the doctor's after class. I am offically sicky and staying off TAFE tomorrow.

This means I am missing out an assement. I don't care, I have the doctor's note to prove why I shouldn't go.


All I have to do later is email my teacher with an assement that's due Thurs, get some other day organised, and then I'm fine.

Parables for Wooden Ears

Work work work
Well, once again it was a day of contrasts. It started off horribly, with a non-existant train. I ended up being slightly late for work. Tracking down the business manager, I FINALLY got a sign-in code, and got my duties. I had to tidy the bedsheets up.

While this sounds like a very simple task, there are morons out there who need to open the pillowcases before deciding that they do not wish to purchase them. I really feel like tracking down these morons, and letting them spend a weekend with Mortis. It's also obvious that people steal items by opening the packages, and hiding them in something.


The idiot from last week, I hardly spoke to them this week (yay). The other people are allright, and a couple of the girls were smiling at me ^_^


The manager thought I did a good job on areas that I didn't do, so that was a huge bonus.


I came home cranky, as it took 50mins for me to get back, after waiting a while for the bus.

I can't wait to see my first pay!!!!!

Super bonus!!! A poem!

'Laugh'

Laugh with me
as the world tumbles down.
Laugh it up, all as one
because you mourn alone.


Are you the last one
clad in black
keeping a straight face
as the applause sign flashes?


Are you not even going to show a smile
and ignore everything else
outside this wonderful show?


Let yourself have a brief moment of pleasure
before remorse and wisdom kicks in.
Just remember, my friend
Laugh, and the world laughs
mourn, and you mourn alone.
