06/10: Forsaken Dream
I remember the cigarette girl.Her face hidden behind thick brown smoke.
Her eyes filled with secrets
staring into the distance.
The picture of the cigarette girl.
Her face hidden within the silhouette.
Her eyes marked by anxiety
and tainted with fear.
Don't cry my cigarette girl.
Beware the forbidden tree.
Farewell my cigarette girl.
Remember the forsaken dream.
The dream of the cigarette girl.
My chest covered with cigarette burns.
My eyes blinded by smoke.
My mouth tasted bitter.
Don't cry my cigarette girl.
Beware the forbidden tree.
Farewell my cigarette girl.
Remember the forsaken dream..
08/12: Hermit of Punggol
You are The Hermit
Prudence, Caution, Deliberation.
The Hermit points to all things hidden, such as knowledge and inspiration,hidden enemies. The illumination is from within, and retirement from participation in current events.
The Hermit is a card of introspection, analysis and, well, virginity. You do not desire to socialize; the card indicates, instead, a desire for peace and solitude. You prefer to take the time to think, organize, ruminate, take stock. There may be feelings of frustration and discontent but these feelings eventually lead to enlightenment, illumination, clarity.
The Hermit represents a wise, inspirational person, friend, teacher, therapist. This a person who can shine a light on things that were previously mysterious and confusing.

20/07: Devices and Desires
"The Republic is a vast and complex machine, powered by constitution and specification, with hundreds and thousands of human cogs, gears, cams, spindles, shafts, beams, arms, pawls, hands, keys, axles, cotters, manifolds, bearings, sears, pins, latches, flies, pistons, links, quills, leads, screws, drums and escapements, each performing in turn its specific operation. He was the last operation before the army was engaged, but he was a component of the whole; ordinances and directives drove him, his office and his duties were the keyway he travelled in. It wasn't as though he has any choice in the matter."~excerpt from Devices and Desires by K J Parker.

.
It's been 3 weeks since I left the job... to do nothing. And I am still doing nothing much other than:- walking around town randomly, enjoying an earl grey at a cafe, when most of my peers are slogging at work,
- staying up the whole night playing UO while my peers are having nightmares about timelines,
- spending lots of time with Cat and just sitting on the sofa feeling great about not doing anything

24/04: People are people
People are peopleSo why should it be
You and I should get along so awfully
People are people
So why should it be
You and I should get along so awfully
So we're different colours
And we're different creeds
And different people
have different needs
It's obvious you hate me
Though I've done nothing wrong
I've never even met you
So what could I have done
I can't understand
What makes a man
Hate another man
Help me understand
People are people
So why should it be
You and I should get along so awfully
People are people
So why should it be
You and I should get along so awfully
Help me understand
Help me understand
Now you're punching
And you're kicking
and you're shouting at me
And I'm relying on your common decency
So far it hasn't surfaced
But I'm sure it exists
It just takes a while to travel
from your head to your fist (head to your fists)
I can't understand what makes a man
hate another man
Help me understand
People are people
so why should it be
You and I should get along so awfully
People are people
so why should it be
You and I should get along so awfully
I can't understand
What makes a man
hate another man
Help me understand
I can't understand
What makes a man
Hate another man
Help me understand
I can't understand
What makes a man
Hate another man
I can't understand (people are people)
What makes a man (why should it be)
Hate another man
Help me understand...
