More poems.... GREED

A house of a thousand window and doors,
Typical Greed.
Higher than the clouds above,
Typical Greed.
The destruction of a thousand trees,
Typical Greed.

It's amazing what one can do with money.
The greed of man destroys the earth,
For what they consider a better life!

Considering no-ones life but their own,
Typical Greed.
A place to suit a thousand for one or two,
Typical Greed.
Higher than, clouds, mountains, and beauty,
Typical Greed.

To have no Beauty; Destroys life!

I HATE

Hate is such a strong word, and it is thrown around with such ease these days... This poem was written in high school, for all those people who treated me like shit, this is how they made me feel.
I entered this into a poetry competition and had the honour of it being read aloud on the presentation night. The prizes where randomly drawn, but I happened to receive one and it went towards the purchase of my leavers dinner dress.
Downfall to this happening was that my english teacher thought it would be great to put the poem up on the door of the english room and everyone at the school read it. It stopped them treating me like shit, but by then I didn't care anyway!
So....

I HATE

I hate my life,
I live for dreams.
I hate my looks,
I live for happiness.
I hate the way people hate me,
I live my life not for them.
I hate those who tease,
I live for those who love.
I hate being called names everyday,
I live for what I am made.
I hate to change just for school,
I live for who I am.
I hate changing my life for others,
I live for what I make it.
I hate the way the world is disintergrating,
I live to watch it die.
I hate the way animals are disappearing,
I live to make it stop.
I hate the way the mines are growing,
I live to see them rot.
I hate the way people are starving,
I live to give them food.
I hate the way the space is filling,
I live to see it overflow.
I hate teh way drugs rule the streets,
I live to make this cease.
I hate the way the ozone is vanishing,
I live to find the cure.
I hate the way buildings are growing,
I live to see them reach the sky.
I hate the way the ice caps are shrinking,
I live to see them melt away.
I hate the way technology rules,
I live to see it engulf mankind.
I hate the world how it is today,
I live to make it change.
I hate the way we are ignored,
I live to quell the arrogance.
I hate the greed of the powerful,
I live to see the ranks disappear.

Memories

The memory floods back, as you open that door again,
As much as I love this to occur,
I can't help but think, 'Will this be the same as last time?'
I want to believe everything you say,
But you've lied once before!
I can't help but think that it's all a lie again.
Lies, one of the many things you are good at,
Is this a lie?
Your kiss says, I want you,
Your touch says, I need you,
Your eyes say, I love you.

Your touch is secure, but soft.
Your kiss tender and sweet, yet somehow strong!
With you I feel safe,
As though you could carry me away
From all humanity's greed and destruction.
As long as I am with you nothing else matters.
But...
Do i have you?
Are you mine?
You've lied once before,
Is it possible that this time it's true??

The Miracle

Alone, like me, is the miracle.
I forgot, who I was; I don't know, dive deep.
Silent memories of that night,
Drifting come and go, in a river of thought...
All about the miracle.

Alone, leave, you are always in me.
Distant sun cut shadows,
Of a life we could live,
The chance smashed one of us,
Into the ground!
Now you walk with regret.

In you, the predator, I found myself...
My soul.
In me a broken reality lies.
Breath life into my heart... then go.

Wicked flowers, scream in silence.
In you, I hear them; you are the miracle!
Crown of thorns, a shower of arrows, give in.
The wall had fallen for me to find you,
But comes again, as though we never met!
In love, begins the pain of loss.

Go, like a predator among the stars.
The wise and the prey, one in the same.
Waiting for passion, love...is a game.
Without you war, begins a fire in my head.
I felt the violence.
Life, better than death?

I love your taste; remember it all.
Go, you are afraid, swallow your pride, Go.
Miracle go, make way
Fantasy is lost, new paths begin.
Slow sacrifice, yet another pain.
Weapons, bring rain and a winner.

Running away from life,
This collar brings my death
Today, we both go free,
Someday, our eyes may meet again
Go!


This was inspired by a deep depression and a various compilation of songs from my teen years.

Doing things my Way

I really feel like saying alot but nothing much is coming forth.
So... Konrad's pants are pinned and awaiting sewing, then I will have another 2 pairs to make if all goes well.
There is alot of ironing to be done when making clothes, and I really do not iron, so I need to make an exception. DH needs to look after the kids while I try and get them sew up tonight I guess.
Ali is coming over on Monday, I am thrilled. I need to take her material shopping for a few things.
I might get my first fruit n veg delivery next week.... all organic :). For the first time in forever we have run out of fresh fruit before I am able to do the fortnightly shop. I am very pleased about that.
We purchased a playstation2 with singstar as our combined birthday present yesterday.... I love singstar :). I am having trouble thinking of things to type, Konrad is getting 2 new teeth coming through, Ishtar's top front tooth is so loose but she wont let anyone touch it she wants it to fall out. It is so wonky, it lots really wierd, but I am trying not to say anything to her about it. The last thing I want is for her to be worried about looks at age 6.
There is a whole stack of dishes to be done and a heap of washing but DS is sleeping on me right now bless him. Should be awake any moment wanting breast.

First HomeBirth Tasmania meet is on Saturday morning, I haven't had one person contact me for details on where it will be, as such this first one is simply being held at my house. I may end up being alone in it but if that is the case I will use the time to work out some new lines of approach to take.

Argh that will do I will sit here all day and never have anything of value to say
