I took my girl to the high school prom;
It was a social hop.
We waited till the kids got out,
And the music it did stop.
Then to a restaurant we went,
The best one on the street.
She said she wasn't hungry
But this is what she ate.
A dozen raw, a plate of slaw,
A chicken and a roast,
Some applesauce and asparagus,
And soft-shell crabs on toast.
A Boston stew, and crackers too;
Why, her appetite was immense!
But when she called for pie,
I thought I'd die,
For I had but fifty cents!
She said she wasn't hungry
And didn't care to eat,
But I've money in my clothes
To bet she can't be beat.
She took it in so cozy,
She had an awful tank.
She said she wasn't thirsty
But this is what she drank.
A whisky skin, a glass of gin,
Which made me shake with fear,
A ginger pop, with rum on top,
A schooner then of beer,
A glass of ale, a gin cocktail.
She should have had more sense.
When she called for more
I fell on the floor
For I had but fifty cents!
Of course I wasn't hungry
And didn't care to eat,
Expecting every moment
To be kicked into the street.
She said she'd fetch her family round,
And then we'd have some fun,
Then I gave the man my fifty cents,
This is what he done:
He tore my clothes,
He smashed my nose,
He hit me on the jaw,
He gave me a prize
Of a pair of black eyes
And with me swept the floor.
He took me where my pants hung loose,
And threw me over the fence.
Now take my advice, don't try it twice
If you've got but fifty cents!
From the 1880's sometime, with slight alterations. )

We have just been clearing out the trash. For a while we have been the quiet target of spam registrations here. There are folks who register with a stream of web links but never participate because their desire is to generate links.
We've just cleared a whole slew of these out, and MAY have inadvertently deleted YOU at the same time. That's ok. You can re-register if unable to use your existing login (take NO ACTION if you can log in still!).
Those registering now have to go through a CAPTCHA process, a process which should minimise automatic registrations (which 99% of these were)

An elderly couple, Margaret and Bert, moved to Texas.
Bert always wanted a pair of authentic cowboy boots, so, seeing some on sale, he bought them and wore them home.
Walking proudly, he sauntered into the kitchen and said to his wife,
'Notice anything different about me?'
Margaret looked him over. 'Nope.'
Frustrated, Bert stormed off into the bathroom, undressed and walked back
into the kitchen completely naked except for the boots.
Again he asked Margaret, a little louder this time, 'Notice anything
different NOW?'
Margaret looked up and exclaimed, 'Bert, what's different? It's hanging down today, it was hanging down yesterday, it'll be hanging down again tomorrow!'
Furious, Bert yelled, 'AND DO YOU KNOW WHY IT'S HANGING DOWN, MARGARET?'
'Nope', she replied.
'IT'S HANGING DOWN, BECAUSE IT'S LOOKING AT MY NEW BOOTS!!!!'
Without changing her expression, Margaret replied, 'Shoulda bought a hat,
Bert. Shoulda bought a hat...'

Swimming knife in treasures fold
Beneath the waters of the old and gone
Set apart the stony grime
What one was a broken candle light
Twisted nature takes her call
to those who wish to see it all
Riding upon the waves of sand
We enjoy the midnight bliss with our hands
Cut short by the tides rising turn
We come to close the gap in yearn
Wondering where and when we'll be
Gasping upon those giant palm trees
So tall and so wide
Enough to reach your eyes for miles
Suddenly taken adrift the cold waters
We wait for our stop, anxious as the summer's daughter
Who is waiting at the shores for a long lost love
To capture and free her from her lonely sins above
Laughter lost, now all is quiet
As he rides along the shores
Eagerly waiting to take her in his arms
To embrace and protect her until his time has come
Such love was meant to be from the start
Some might even call it an art
Yet in these times I call to you friend
Do not let your heart be frozen
Heal with time so take it slow
and then maybe someday, maybe even you'll know...

Take in the Origins of Time and Space
Relish in mankind's disasters
Such is a pitiable fool, he who plays with time's magic
As such, punishment is unavoidable,
And shall not be tolerated; For he who tampers with the flow of time,
He shall endure a thousand deaths and then some
A punishment indescribable awaits him.
Taken from the wings of a child,
She now awaits the harmonious merge
Of the soul who brought her out of darkness
Tranquility shall she have; a temporary mirage of peace
Then shall she be free of all things -an empty slate-
With which to write on
The patters of her dreams..

Pulse your fingertips through the water
Forget about the finer things in life
Slash the ancient memories to pieces
And move on, as not to forget
The blood-stained corpse you left behind
The corpse that one had life,
Now floats in an empty stream
Dry of the life that once was
Repeat the past mistakes in a different way
So as not to forgive what is unforgivable
Turn the flower in your hand and walk..
Walk on.

Topic: The drink... (not a poem) by ~Josh~

Empty spaces in a broken window, with pieces of glass -sprayed- gently across a wooden floor. Such is as it was the day before, and will be the day after. The drink. A toxic lullaby that takes you away into a world of blurriness and headaches. You say this is supposed to be "better," but I see it was not a form of escape, but a form of abuse. You, Father, abuse yourself with the drink to take -away- the pain, when in fact, you are causing yourself so much more. Now, you think, I should just put it down. I can handle one more. One more, then I'll stop. "Promise!" Heh. Yeah right. You only said that so mom would stop yelling at you for it. But you knew it was a lie, it did have a hold on you. You refused to see how deep you were in to the drink.
So here we are, at the hospital. Third monday of the month. It's become more of a routine nowadays. Nothing else matters, but getting that buzz, that high from the alcohol.
"He'll be okay," Mother says to me. I'd believe her, if she wasn't lying. And I could tell that she was lying. Grown-ups often tell their kids what they want to hear. It's natural.
If only you'd listened to my cries for help. My cries for you to stop. My cries for you to listen to me.. But it's too late now, isn't it. Mom's already hired a burier for you. You died, in that car crash lastnight. That's what they forgot to mention to you. They said it was the other guy's fault, but it wasn't. The blame was all on you.
So here I am, in a cradle, listening to my mother cry, and try to hum me to sleep, so I can peacefully dream of the father I never had. Oh yes, and in case you're wondering, being a baby isn't all that fun..
At least, not when you're caught in the middle...
That's what I'd say if I were a little older, but hey, what do I know. I'm just a baby... Just something to think about...

I just want to put on record my delight and amazement that my old school should have chosen Martin Sherman's "Bent" as the school play this spring.
The play is about homosexuals in the holocaust. What a subject for a boys' school! That must have taken some guts.

~Innocent Beauty~
Author: Joshua Ward
Written on April 09, 2008.
Life 'anew' with pretty roses and butterflies. Scattered memories shred at the innocence to block away the fear. Innocent beauty torn apart from the mother who loved them not. Shedding tears of pain for you, I try to walk the day anew. Though I myself am far away, in my prayers forever you'll stay. Hoping your innocence will never leave you, and that warm arms may forever surround you. Keep each other safe..

I have just been helping Josh (our Josh here, not the author on the site) with some areas of story writing. Of course I have just one opinion, and a budding author needs to distill many opinions into defining a style, and into writing flowing tales.
I know he would appreciate hearing from others and choosing whom else to ask for advice. He wants to turn his raw talent into something more.
What I don't want to do is to make this a public process. I was wondering if those who feel able to offer him some small help would make themselves known to him in some manner?
When you help, please remember, like I tried, that we are none of us right. We simply have ideas. It is up the Josh to choose which ideas he finds useful.

This is chapter 5 in my story. I hope you all like it. Feel free to comment if you like.
~Josh~
Chapter 5
During Lunch time, I usually spend my time in the Computer Lab, which was open for everyone to use if they wished to. During this particular day, I was browsing the internet, as I had nothing better to do. My thoughts kept going to different places all the time. I started thinking about a lot of different things. My one particular thought, as it had been that day, was about the boy Daren. He seemed interesting to me, though I didn’t know why. It was five minutes into lunch time, when I saw Daren come in to the Lab.
He spotted me, and made his way over to me and took a seat.
I merely looked at the monitor to try to not draw attention to him, even though I kept thinking about him for some reason.
‘How are you doing?’ Daren said to me.
‘Fine…’ I simply said, as I had nothing else to say.
‘What’s your name?’ He said, looking at me.
‘Kyle… What’s yours?’ I asked him.
‘Daren.’
‘Oh…’ I said in a somber voice. It was my initial instinct to have my voice remain in a dark tone in case anyone was talking to me. It was just something I did.
Daren looked at me some more. I was curious as to why, when I started to say something.
‘You are… interesting…’ I said to him.
‘Interesting? How so?’
I turned my chair over to him and looked into his eyes. I took his hand in mine, and examined it slowly.
‘Warm…’ I said, with a partial smile on my face.
He looked back and smiled. He moved a little closer to me, turning his head ever so slightly, moving closer still. That’s when our lips connected, if only for a moment. I liked it. It was, different then usual.
After that brief moment, I stopped to ask him something.
‘Would you like to be… friends?
Daren nodded his head. ‘Sure.’
I smiled, this time all the way. I had a… friend. It was a nice feeling.
The bell for the next class had rung, so I grabbed my book bag and walked with Daren to our next class.

Toddlers Can No Longer Marry in Arkansas
By ANDREW DeMILLO
LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (AP) - Arkansas' marriage-age crisis is over. A law that mistakenly allowed anyone - even toddlers - to marry with parental permission was repealed by a measure signed into law Wednesday by Gov. Mike Beebe, ending months of embarrassment for the state and confusion for county clerks.
Lawmakers didn't realize until after the end of last year's regular session that a law they approved, intended to establish 18 as the minimum age for marriage, instead removed the minimum age to marry entirely. An extraneous "not" in the bill allowed anyone who was not pregnant to marry at any age with permission.
The bill read: "In order for a person who is younger than eighteen (18 ) years of age and who is not pregnant to obtain a marriage license, the person must provide the county clerk with evidence of parental consent to the marriage."
Some lawmakers called for a special session last year, saying the error would make it easy for pedophiles to take advantage of the law. Gov. Mike Beebe said he didn't see any imminent crisis and said the chances of children marrying under the law were slim.
Legislators, however, had the chance for a do-over this week when Beebe convened a special session to consider a hike in the state's severance tax on natural gas. They repealed the botched law, and reinstated 17 as the minimum age to marry for boys and 16 for girls.
Rep. Will Bond, the sponsor of the botched 2007 law and its correction, apologized for the error and asked his colleagues to "throw me a rope and bail me out here."
"I always thought if you put your name on a bill, you should be ready to take the blame if you're willing to accept the credit," Bond said Wednesday.
Bond, a Democrat, said there hadn't been any reports of young children attempting to marry under the 2007 law.

Out' publishes guide to picking up Israeli men
Itamar Eichner
Out Magazine, one of the leading homosexual magazines in the US, has recently published a guide to picking up men in Israel, with an added bonus of recommended pickup lines such as: "Would you like to spin my dreidel?"; "Is that a mezuzah in your pocket, or are you just happy to see me?"; "Do you sleep on your stomach? No? Can I?"; and other gems.
'Out' has anointed Tel Aviv this month's recommended tourist attraction, labeling it the capital of Bauhaus, commerce, culinary culture, and, of course, men. Tel Aviv's coffee houses are described as packed full of people advertising the gay slogan, 'We're here and we're queer'.
You might not expect to hear such slogans, typical of Sydney and San Francisco, in the conservative country of Israel. It wasn't always this way, but since its first broadcast gay kiss Israel has come a long way. Now, a decade later, there are plenty of hangouts for gay men, according to 'Out'. The magazine published a list of them as part of the guide.
And 'Out' is not alone. During the last few weeks the [Israel] Foreign Ministry has been reporting an international trend taken on by foreign magazines who praise the Israeli way of life, complimenting its food, tourist attractions, nightlife, culture, and architecture. Lifestyle magazines in the UK, France, and the US plan on publishing over 30 articles on the subject in the near future.
Israeli consul for Media and Public Affairs in New York, David Saranga, initiated some of these articles. "If the first wave has given our audience a peek at Israel," he said, "the second wave, which will reach its summit during Israel's 60 year independence celebration, will capture their attention in a way they will not be able to ignore."

Hey everyone.
It's me again. I've browsed this board a lot in the last couple years, posting my randomness and such. I hope you all don't mind. I am one whose got a lot to say. And I try to be honest, as much as I can.
How've you all been? Well, first I should tell you all how I've been. I've been alright. Tomorrow, I'm going to Kingston to see my sister and her boyfriend. It's gonna be fun, I'm hoping. Not too much is new with me. I've went to the doctor's for my daily check-up. nothing's wrong with me. I just go there every two months to see how I'm doing and stuff.
There's a new song that I like. It's called 'Get over it' and it's by Avril Lavigne. Here's a link to the vid.
http://youtube.com/watch?v=ke8ZSi80j_0
I was listening to his song in my head in the shower today. It was nice, cause I like it, and it makes me think of my new favourite anime, Sola.
Sola is about your average 15 year old boy, who loves taking pictures of the sky. No sky is the same, and that's his hobby. One night, as he's taking pictures, he hears a kick from behind him, so hes turns around and sees a girl kicking a vending machine because it ate her money. Yorito (the boy) explains to Matsuri (The girl) that he's trying to take a picture of the dawn, while trying to get Matsuri's drink out of the vending machine. he succeeds and turns around to hand it to her, only to find out she's gone.

That's the first part of the first episode for you all. I'll post more links either today or tomorrow. Let me know what you guys think okay?^^ *hugs*

Just browing the net for videos, i came across this song and it caught my interest because of all the comments it received. The words are simple, yet the feelings described are very deep. I read many interpertations, yet i'm having a hard time understanding it. Is love really not enough?
What is your interpertation of the song? I'm just curious to know.
Sometimes Love Just Ain't Enough Lyrics
(girl singing)
Now I don't wanna lose you,
but I don't wanna use you
just to have somebody by my side
And I don't wanna hate you
I don't wanna take you
But I don't wanna be the one to cry
That don't really matter to anyone, anymore
But like a fool I keep losing my place
And I keep seeing you walk through that door
But there's a danger in loving somebody too much
And it's sad when you know it's your heart you can't trust
There's a reason why people don't stay where they are
Baby sometimes love just ain't enough
(guy singing)
Now I could never change you
and I don't wanna blame you
Baby you don't have to take the fault
Yes I may have hurt you
But I did not desert you
Maybe I just wanna have it all
It makes a sound like thunder
It makes me feel like rain
And like a fool who will never see the truth
I keep thinking something's gonna change
But there's a danger in loving somebody too much
And it's sad when you know it's your heart you can't trust
There's a reason why people don't stay where they are
Baby sometimes love just ain't enough
(girl singing)
And there's no way home
when it's late at night and you're all alone
Are there things that you wanted to say
Do you feel me beside you in your bed
there beside you where I used to lay
And there's a Danger in loving somebody too much
And it's sad when you know it's your heart they can't touch.
There's a reason why people don't say who they are
Baby sometimes love just ain't enough.
Baby sometimes love-it just ain't enough...ohh, No. No.

It happened in a small town in Kansas, at one of the few intersections, there was a boy sitting in the middle of the street in a LARGE pile of manure making a ball out of it. The closest shop was a meat market. The butcher came out, afraid the stench would drive customers away. He said to the boy, " What are you doing?." The boy replied "I am making a butcher." The butcher threw up his hands and went in to his shop to call the police. When the policeman arrive he accosted the youth. "Son, I am a policeman, tell me what you are up to." The boy replied, "I am making a policeman." The cop was about as mad as a cop can get, and he was moving over to arrest the boy when an attorney came walking down the street. The attorney yelled out to the policeman, "Halt, I represent this boy." The cop stopped, and the attorney walked up to the boy, who was still trying to make a ball out of the manure. "Boy, I am an attorney, and I think I know what you are going to say. You are going to say that you are making an attorney." The boy looked up at the attorney, kept rolling the manure in his hands, and said, "No, not enough shit."

The second gay lawyer storms over to the culprit and says, "You hit my friend, and we're lawyers, and we'll sue the pants off you."
"Oh yeah?" the guilty guy replies. "Well, you can just kiss my ass! And your friend over there can just suck my dick!"
The gay lawyer returns to his friend.
"What happened?" asked the friend.
"He wants to settle out of court."

Four men went golfing together one day; three headed to the first tee and one went into the club house to take care of the bill. The three men started talking, bragging about their sons. The first man told the others, "My son is a home builder and he''s so successful that he gave a friend a new home - for free."
The second man said, "My son was a car salesman and now he owns a multi-line dealership. He''s so successful that he gave a friend two Cadillacs."
The third man, not wanting to be outdone bragged, "My son is a stock broker and he''s doing so well that he gave his friend an entire stock portfolio."
The fourth man joined them on the tee after a few minutes of taking care of business. The first man mentioned, "We were just talking about our sons. How is yours doing?" The fourth man replied, "Well, my son is gay. I''m not totally thrilled about it, but he must be good. His last three boyfriends gave him a house, two cars, and a stock portfolio."

So there were these two dudes who were playing a quiet round one weekday, and they came up to the seventh tee, wich was the start of a long par five, across a water hazard and dogleg left onto a tiny green. They noticed a pair of ladies in the water hazard in the little valley, trying with all their might to get their balls out of the mud.
One fellow turned to the other and said, "Hank, walk down there and ask the ladies if they would mind allowing us to drive through, and then they can have the hole for the rest of the afternoon if they need it."
So Hank started down the hill, and as he got closer to the two ladies, his steps got slower, and suddenly he turned and walked briskly back up the hill.
"George!" he gasped. "I can't go down there! One of those ladies is my wife, and the other is my mistress!"
"No sweat Hank," said his friend. "We're men of the world, and I understand these things. I'll go talk to them."
So George started down the hill, and as he reached the place where Hank had turned, he too looked long and hard at the two women, and then came back up to the tee.
"Well my friend!" George said. "It's a small world isn't it!"

Breath
From a Fallen,
Blood
Tingles and twists my sense of reality.
The 'right'
The 'wrong'
Are these straps appealing to you?
Wrapped in leather, encased.
I am your 'princess.'
A simple kiss.
Drowsing me, tasting me
Satisfy.
Feed on me.
Only to please Master.
Does it scare you?
I am broken.
Shaded.
Unwrapped.
Twist me round again.
So I may feel.
Let me feel, as not to pray.
A simple answer is so hard to find.
Looking away, I am lost now.
Pain is,
Inducing. Twisting me.
Covered in blood, I am yours..

After I wrote my last poem, 'Blackened, Broken..' I started to feel sad. I'm not sure why, but I did. And then I was reading up on sex crimes on Wikipedia. I'm not sure why. I'm strange that way I guess.
I apologize if my poems are too.. Wierd.
I'm just not sure what I'm feeling right now.
I hope that we're all still friends.

Fire presses through the night,
The Cold sweat from your brow tingles me.
Life anew, starting over, to be new, polished to shine.
Gardens of light fill the night sky,
Shimmering with beauty.
With eyes open, I take a step and wonder how it came to this.
Regardless, don't die.
Save all the good times.
Happy.
That's all I want.
Save a smile for when you're down.
Don't forget.
Keep the memories inside.
To give you a smile, when you need one.
Love,
~Josh~

... I hope.
I have put this in a new thread because it's really a response to posts in several threads.
I have had contact with Marc by e-mail. I really don't know whether this has moved things forward, nor do I know what Marc will decide to do in the longer term.
I have again made it clear that, so far as I am concerned, I would welcome Marc's return to the forum, but that if the agression and rudeness reappears I will react as I reacted on this occasion. This place is much too valuable in the lives of too many people for it to be put at risk. Everyone must feel equally free to come here to seek or offer advice, to discuss the issues of the day, or simply to share a joke, in the knowledge that they will find friendship, courtesy and as much support and love as we are collectively able to give.
If Marc is willing bring down the curtain at this point, I'd be more than happy to concur.
In the circumstances, may I respond to all who have posted on my previous thread, or on Josh's thread or Jordan's thread, by suggesting that that the matter be closed until and unless there is a specific reason to revive it.
Thank you all for staying with the forum through this embarrassing period, but sometimes it is necessary to fight for what you believe to be right.
For a' that an' a' that,
It's comin' yet for a' that,
That man tae man, the worrld o'er
Shall brithers be, for a' that.

Dear All,
I have bee taking a look over all that has happened and am now not happy with how it is going.
To Marc : What you have said is valid and stands with me. You have a point that can not be denied. I have read what you have to say and thank you for all of your input. For moment I had taken what you had to say on a very personal level, but came to a very fast realisation that everyone has a RIGHT to there own. And I have decided to let sleeping dogs lie.
I love what you have to say, please do not get me wrong, it opens the door to a different view on things which is always a good thing.
So thank you for that.
To all others : Marc has a view point that may be hard for a lot of us to understand, but we all have a moments where we find our selves misunderstood.
I would like to thank you all for what you have had to say on and off the board. It has been an interesting few days, and it is always quite exciting to see what you all have to say. But now I ask that we let this be, and lets all agree to disagree.
Kind Regards
Michael

I am delighted to find this site: http://www.al-fatiha.org/ Although it's based in USA I hope that it will spread its wings throughout the Muslim world.

Topic: A Christmas Message from a Jew
|
|
|
|

I am a Jew and my knowledge about the message of Christmas is rather sketchy. In another thread a poster kindly mentioned one message that I do recognize: "Peace on Earth and goodwill to all men".
Forgive my Jewish cynicism, but "Peace on Earth"? - Not in our lifetimes!
Now "Goodwill to all men" (and women and children) is something that we do have control over. I come to this message board to spend a while with kindred souls. All too often I find a definite absence of "goodwill"; the goodwill is alloyed and cloyed by sheer annoying obstinacy. We just need a little self-control when at the keyboard to rectify that - and it can be done!
Maybe that message should be reversed: True goodwill to all men might eventually bring about Peace on Earth.
Sincerest best wishes to everyone here. May you have a truly joyous holiday.

I started to post something I recieved from curtis, but changed my mind. If he wants to say something he will. However what he had to say was very disheartening and had to do with others on this board. I think Ill stay out of it tho.

But sometimes.... just sometimes.... an inspiration comes to me when writing and the words, the emotions, the heart... i'm trying to put onto paper just flows perfectly......
It is times like this that I truely enjoy my writing and it makes me feel good inside....
I just wish I could finish this story.... it just keeps going snd going snd going....
Humph...
Life is great for me... Most of the time... But then I meet people online... Very few are real friends... Many say they are but know nothing of what it means... Some say they are, but are so shallow...
