Bon Appetit! Vince
The demon takes so many forms
shapeless,murky,indistinct
That troubled minds react and run
and therefore mold its grisly shape.......
Clothed in fear of solitude
the demon smirks and smotes
and colors all horizons past
as failure,loss, and endlessness....
The mind obsesses........then denies
looking for its trump
"Aha"he says,"the body hurts",
but then the pain is gone!....
[..............at least for now.]
I know I must identify and strip away the robes
of such a heartless,mindless tool
of those who wish to do me harm.......
Projection fails,all bastions gone
the mind climbs on the demon`s steed
to see where it will lead......
Looking down,it sees some words imprinted on the bridle.
"TO BE SHARED BY ALL WHO WISH TO SEE
MY NAME IS
F E A R A N D T R E M B L I N G "
I kind of like this one...
A weakness perceived
tiredness, an ache?
No, the thinking starts
present pain is not enough.
Ah! stealthily, the super-ego
searches the files
"We can do worse!"
Guarantors of pain
life experience parades,
sadness prevails.
then you delve deeply
to despair and hatefulness.
the future is moribund
for you, deserving.

Just a poem, gang! LOL

Running only 2 years behind, I just saw the movie " Bend It Like Beckham ", starring Parminder K Nagra and Keira Knightley. Absolutely Wonderful! There was a tear in my eye for the penalty shot by Jess, when they played " Nessum Dorma "!

Thanks to Gregg for creating this award in honor of Viviansullinwank.
Viv, as everyone knows, has been the driving force behind our 1st Anniversary celebration. The amount of time, effort and creativity she has invested is staggering!
For me, her good nature and nurturing made my small contribution to the celebration carefree and painless. It was Viv who selected me to request an Anniversary poem. When it was finished and I sent it to her, within an hour I received my first E-Mail voice message. It was Viv taking time from her busy work day to thank me for the poem, offering wonderful words of encouragement.
When it was time for posting, Viv asked me if I would mind if she searched for a suitable graphic to accentuate its presentation! This from the person who was probably speaking to dozens of others, shepherding their work.
Viv, you are a wonderful woman and it is my continuing pleasure to know you. All my love and respect.
