At our backs the castle door,
others feel free to ignore
this extension of extended metaphor
On the porch swings where we sit,
quick of tongue and fleet of wit
games and poems to submit
Open books in open hands,
poetry from other lands,
lyrics from our favorite bands
A telling word, a single note,
and meaning in a random quote:
significance of what we wrote
Different cultures and aesthetic,
for this we're not apologetic!
We are just beyond poetic!
Killers, X Files, Broken Bride
never are these words denied,
here they often all collide
from the early light of dawn,
as we used to, still wait on
the random poetry anons
Jack White, movies, TBS,
have you wisdom to profess?
Here, the answer's always "Yes"
Here we play, by words transfixed,
Haiku and pop culture mixed,
nothing broken, nothing fixed
Here is truth and here's creation
joy and horror, pain, elation,
in a story, small salvation
And here is laughter, here we're free
to be whatever we may be
and though others may disagree,
we greet the castle, greet its lord
and do so of our own accord
and shun the frothing, rabid horde
Be it known I'd so much rather
read my friends and all their "blather,"
on the porch here, where we gather.

Go With The Flow
This River Is Wild
Leaves are falling down
On the beautiful ground
I heard a story from the man in red
He said the leaves are falling down
Such a beautiful sound so I think you
Son, I think you better go ahead
But you always hold your head up high
Cause it's a long, long, long way down
This town was meant for passing through
But it ain't nothing new
Now go and show them
That the world stayed round
But it's a long, long, long way down
You better run for the hills before they burn
Listen to the sound of the world
And watch it turn
I just want to show you what I know
And catch you when the current lets you go
Or should I just get along with myself
I never did get along with everybody else
I've been trying hard to do what's right
But you know I could stay here all night
And watch the clouds fall from the sky
This river is wild
This river is wild
The Killers

Alright?
Hot damn!
Smoke wins another one!
WOOOOOHOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!
*Princess goes to find nearest fence to climb, a Tony Stewart trademark
AND THE CROWD GOES WILD!!!!!!
You don't count S&V, so I'm claiming the "Woo-hoo!" this morning!
Kass xx
Smoke,
You're funny. I can see you climbing that fence trying doing your Miss America wave.
Oh, I can do it and do it well, Solly!
Kass, you can claim it all you want but it doesn't make it so. ^_~
Hell yeah!
*Princess is just as cocky and arrogant as Smoke himself.
Quote for the day:
It ain't bragging if you back it up!
Anyone with half a brain can see that posting first on your own blog is clearly cheating, S&V!
Anyhoo, I hope you 2 ladies are having a fine day...
Kass xx
Oh my God! Now, on a more serious note this morning....
I have just discovered that my jackass of a husband has deleted my DVR'd episode of Loaded featuring TAKING BACK SUNDAY!
WTF?
Damn, can't I have anything?
GRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!
Please leave for Mayo:
Mayo,
Hello, how are you? I hope you are doing absolutely fantastic today. Me? I'm good, just feeling like I could have used a couple more hours sleep. Oh well, oh well...
I am hoping that my day goes a little better than yesterday, but considering how I am surrounded by exactly the same things and the same people...then I guess it's all on me to make it what it could be. I am really going to try to not let it get to me, but that's so hard.
Mayo, I am wishing you a great day filled with great people, great hope, great inspiration, and great certainty.
Let's both do our best to make it happen.
Love to YOU Always,
S
p.s. Sure, we can.
What the heck....?
Ninth!?!?!
*does a prima donna hissy fit and drops mouse on ground*
Hi girlies. Ho you all doing?
SS appears to have been reading over at Mayo's. He's changed his page.
Crumbs!
Should be *How you all doing?
OK, 2 questions:
1). If Sdock10 can't get on Mayo, how does she/you know whether she's been reposted?
2). Where has My Chemical Idiots disappeared too? It was free-to-lurk, then you had to sign in (grrr...); now it's completely disappeared!
Kass xx
Hey PP!
SS is such an outstanding person. I feel lucky just to have crossed his path.
SS, if you are still lurking and reading us, I am still learning from you.
Thanks for everything you do here.
Faith, hope, love
Always,
S
Given that my computer hates Prometheus, can anyone give me a heads-up on the new stuff?
Hi PP!
Kass xx
sorry i deleted i fucked up with my clickable link!!
hello sisters!
hello kass!
hello PP!
kass i think you should've really won that one!!
PP disappointed in your attempt!
i return from the hell of toddler group with only a mere hint of a headache. all went well today, the 2 yr olds shared nicely (ish)!!!
SS has on his page "ELENA the mouse that roars - your heart makes all the difference.
bless him.
Kass my chemical idiots is still there.
http://www.buzznet.com/groups/mychemicalidiots/forum/
i would try to clickable link it but i might fuck up again.
Hi guys.
Sorry I was catching up everywhere.
Idiots has gone private Kass. There was some trouble. It may go public again.
Glad to see you survived the toddler wrangling FASC.
PP disappointed in your attempt
I know FASC.
I know.
I never saw them coming. That big head of mine obviously wasn't watching the rear view mirror enough.
*reaches up to fence climbing Princess and belatedly offers congrats on her success*
Hi there socky.
Been doing much swinging lately or are you still Mayosquerade planning.
*misses MissT and her blog streaking*
I miss MissT, too!
She's the only one that I'll let stroke my hair when I'm sad. :(
Hello errbody on the porch.
Or am I talking to myself?
I have several personalities so it'll work out I guess. O_O
Arrrggghhhhh!! My New Year's Resolution is broken. I have another BN account - Kastispumanti, FYI - but if I stick to MCI I may be able to behave myself.
Yes FASC, S&V is the Ben Johnson to my Carl Lewis at the '88 Olympics.
Still bitter.
Kass xx
ha! that didn't last long kass! great name also!
hello porch dwellers!
Kass, don't be bitter. ^_~
Alright, so where is my friend Mustard?
Where has BC been?
Where the hell is Jules?
Where is the friggin' unicorn?
BC is taking a break, she's not sure if she's coming back. She knows people miss her though.
Thanks, Carrie.
We've been worried about her.
I mean to post this link over here yesterday
http://www.freerice.com/index.php
It's a site where you can play a word game and for every correct answer, the United nations donates rice to nations in need of it. I know a lot of people around here have a big vocabulary (Jules, I'm looking at you) so it will be fun. Plus, you find out a lot of new words!
Hey guys! I am having a hard time getting on today but wanted to say hi! Hope you are all good. What was My Chemical Idiots? Sounds like something I
would want to be a part of except that there is only one. idioyt who is dragging down the rest of the band. Oh well.
What's new at Mayo's casa?
Later taters!
Hi K,
It's a private group on BN where you can write stuff that would have the MCRmy chasing you with flaming torches and pitchforks if you dared to post it on the main forum. You'd probably quite like it, except you'd need a BN account to join.
Kass xx
Hey K!
Not a whole lot going on right now.
Carrie,
That shit is hard but it's fun!
Alright, later peeps!
Thanks Carrie, I will take a look at that later.
But one thing I always wonder about things like thjat is, if they have rice to donate, why not just donate it instead of making a game? The poor people who need it, having to depend on a bunch of folks on the internet. "Let them get it right, please oh please!" LOL, the pressure!
J/k mostly. But honestly, why not just give it away?
Regardless, it sound s like a fun game that I would like. :D
Thanks Carrie,
I got up to 1020 grains before my supervisor asked me to do some proper work! He's got a cold heart...
I guess if they make up a website people will see the ads and that's where they make their money to buy the rice.
Kass xx
Thanks kass for the info. Awww too bad about it being on BN.
Hey princess! Hey sdock and everyone else!
Where is splash today?
Okay gotta run!
yeah, Kass, you're right about the ads, that's in the FAQ. I enjoy it, I got cracked up when for the word "cockloft" one of the possible answers was womb! The highest level I can get is 43, then I start seeing words I've never heard of!
Yo is anyone here today? Damn son.
OMG! It is so slow around here today!
You people act like you have a life or something. WTF is up with that?
Just playin' ^_^
New mayo post.
PPU!!!!!!!
Where are you??????????
PPU!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm yelling at you!
Everyone, as usual, lunch-break pop in! =]
I hope we all have amazing days. =]
xoxo;

<3
Bye Blog Angel! Have a great day!
PPU, I'm still yelling at you!
I am here! Please do not strain the beautiful Princess voice.
Oh, it's okay. This voice is usually a few decibels above the rest. ^_~
Where you been?
I have been make-believing in Blogbelieve land.
Are you having a good day?
I suppose. Only one hour to go! YAY!
Solly told me to call you out and I see that it worked. She will be so pleased.
How about you? You okay?
I am doing grand, thank you for asking.
Tell Shelby I said hello and I miss her.
Will do.
Hey, since when were the two of you on a first name basis?
>_<
What is your first name?
Pretty!
I knew that was coming.
GRRRRR!!!!
Goodbye Mayo's Porch!
Goodbye Porch Swing!
Goodbye Pretty! Have fun make-believing!
See errrrrrbody later.
XOXO,
Princess
Anyone home?
*meep?*
Nikki,
Wassup?
*storms out the front door*
Sdock!
SisterM Night Shamallama!
How are you both?!
Hey Mustard,
I am writing my comment to Mayo.
It's going to be one long hot mess.
He hasn't seen an sdock comment like this in good long while.
Now, have I found errrrbody!
I has been so lonely! PH came in and left me today. :(
I had to yell for the unicorn. They finally showed up but didn't stay long. :(
Then Mayo made me sad. :(
Well, then that beckons the question.
Are you okay?
This post just stirs up too many emotions. I am having a hard time centering myself on this one.
Aw, sad smileys (uh, oxymoron, yes?) all around.
Hello Smoke :) I've not talked to you at all today. That makes me :(
Sdock:
Dude got back today didn't he?
I know, Mustard. You is supposed to be here wit me. :(
I was sooo sad. I kept checking all day and nuthin'.
Then Mayo unloads on us and I got really sad. I just want to slap him and then squeeze him and then ask him what da problem really is.
tonight, mustard.
That is why I am in a hurry.
Don't rush your thoughts, okay?
Just let them flow no matter the order.
Hi everyone! *waves*
Socky thank you for visiting my house. It was lovely to see you there, and the words you left brightened up the place! :D
Seriously guys, this is one hot mess I am writing.
Hey Lucy!
I saw where Present had stopped by last night. That was so nice of them. I wonder who it is.
X_x
Hey Lucy!
Good to read you today! How are you?
I need to talk to Present.
Present:
If you are around, will you please go take a peek at the last DM blog at the end?
I left you a message.
I just need you to understand :)
I'm a bit tired Socky, and Mayo's post has made me feel sad but otherwise I'm ok. How are you? Hope everything goes the way you want with your fella.
Ok, I know this has nothing to do with what we're talking about but does anyone else get the urge to print out a copy of the unicorn pic and color it with crayons?
Cuz I do everytime I see it. ^_^
Okay, my long hot rambling babbling mess is done. I hope he can make some kind of sense out of what I was talking about.
I think it sounds like vintage sdock myself.
Lucy,
I guess we'll see when he gets here. I might try not to be online when he walks in the door...that might help.
Smoke,
I would if I were allowed to pull this up at work. I would so color the unicorn, but with cool magic markers.
Well I hope everything goes ok. I just hate it when people feel they have to modify their behaviour to placate a partner. If you are online when he arrives and he doesn't like it then that's his problem. I totally realise that this may put him in a bad mood and it gets things off to a bad start, but does he ever make an effort to modify his behaviour in case it upsets you?
It's not as if you would be online all night, it's just the way you feel you can't even be online when he arrives. Oooh I sound all ranty and I don't mean to be Socky, I am just venting cos I've been there and done that and would never ever do it again. It's your relationship and your life and you should do what is right for you Socky. *hugs*
Lucy,
I just don't even know anymore.
Well, maybe I do, but I am too tired to do it tonight.
Instead, I will have supper cooking and a smile waiting.
I understand what you mean when you say you are too tired. It's just emotionally draining and it is easier to do what is expected of you than cause an argument. If your heart isn't in the relationship you won't even be able to muster enough passion to argue properly!
I was okay until I saw Mayo's post.
Now I'm all sad and maudlin for everybody. :(
And to top it all off, I get to go grocery shopping right away. I WANNA BE BLOGGING!!!
Sdock, I miss you. *grabs Sdock's leg & won't let go*
I'll sneak back in after food-store, though. Mustardz, Princess, Sdocky, everybody - see you later, yes?
Lucy,
So true.
*sighs*
So, I'm leaving for now. I might get a chance to come back later and I might not.
Love you ALL!
Sorry, Nikki
Real life calls again.
Fuck it!
I still love ya though!
See ya later maybe, Sdock.
You're a good person :)
SisterM N S:
I'll be waiting right here.
Everybody:
Keep your chins up.
See you laterzz, Nik@Nite!
Is anyone around? The porch is empty.
If nobody is around I will have to go to bed *pouts*
damn stupid time zones.. /muttering under breath
*cries*
Where are my fellow porchers? Splash? S&V20? Sea Strumpet?
Mustardisbetter
You're an amazing addition to this blog, and I'll never forget the feeling I had in my stomach when you posted "Soldier's Poem" for me. I reluctantly admit that a lump formed in my throat because you saw how much I loved the song.
One is happy you enjoyed your present. One is delighted to see the present’s taken with so much heart.
(And I especially think it's cool you refer to yourself as "One" ;)
One is intrigued why Mustardisbetter is often referred to as Splash?
Always respect somebody with the respect that you wish to be shown towards yourself. One knows there is respect in blog believe unfortunately it seems to be lost on rare occasions.
Hey Present?
Are you still here?
One has work to attend shortly. One must wrap up and be off, but one has a few minutes.
Yes, Present.
It sometimes is.
But, things happen, people visit, we share stories, worldly things happen, and somehow, it brings us all back into the same frame of mind.
We all travel back the road we came, and respect is shown again.
Hey Present?
If there was one thing you could change about some things you see around here, or even things you see that I, personally, should change, would you tell me that? Maybe we can all work on it together?
Hey Present!
I was just on my way out.
Ok.
Well, bye Present. :(
Looks like I just missed you.
Goodnight BlogBelieve!
Sweet dreams!
XOXO,
Princess
One knows you, Mustardisbetter,do not need to change!
The only issue one has that one would change would be the name calling. Especially between the lovely blog believe residents. That is just in one's opinion.
One must go to worldly duties, finished one's morning coffee, now off to ones work.
Take care Mustardisbetter and everybody else
One is sorry to ignore you smoke&venom20. It was not intentional.
Goodnight and stay safe princess.
Take care
Yeah, Present, I understand.
Maybe we can all learn from your comment, yeah?
You go enjoy your coffee. We'll see you around :)
Thank you.
-----------
Goodnight, Smoke! See you tomorrow :)
Uhhh, did I miss Present? =]
Dude, I just want to let you know that I really enjoyed the gift you left me at my blog. I really really love that song, and the fact that you remembered actually made me tear up. I don't really know you, but I remember seeing you around. Thanks, with all my heart. =]
<3
Present, I know you have left, Hopefully this will reach you regardless.
I need to be honest. I've been around many times when you were posting songs and I have never received one. And that is totally cool. Seriously, this is not to make you feel bad or anything. What you do here is really sweet.
Was there something I said or did? I felt like I should ask just in case.
