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

any poor souls
who trespass against us
Whether it be beast or man
Will suffer the bite
or be stung dead on sight
By those who inhabit this land
For theirs is the power
And this is their kingdom
as sure as the sun does burn
So enter this path
but heed these four words...
......you shall never return.

hello!
*waves*
*grabs the 'hey' and stacks it in the barn for PPU to eat later*
1st, 2nd, and 3rd FASC!
Heck, if I were a betting person I could have made some money off you today ^_^
Morning porchies!
Sucks to be up at 5:53am in old time huh?
*rubs the US porchies consolingly on their backs*
Hi FASC and PP!
The porch is so happy to see you guys. It was feeling so lonely yesterday!
A little lower, PP. A little lower....awwwh yes, that's the spot.

That line right there has just made my day.
PPU don't you go hiding from me today. ^_^
HEY PORCHIES! I ♥ you!
Just because I am feeling these words this morning....
Hear the sound
The angels come screaming
Down your voice
I hear you've been bleeding
Make your choice
They say you've been pleading
Someone save us
Heaven help us now
Come crashing down
We'll hear the sound
As you're falling down
I'm at this old hotel
But can't tell if I've been breathing or sleeping
Or screaming or waiting for the man to call
And maybe all of the above
Cause mostly I've been sprawled on these cathedral steps
While spitting out the blood and screaming
"Someone save us!"
Heaven help us now
Come crashing down
We'll hear the sound
As you're falling down
And will you pray for me?
Or make a saint of me?
And will you lay for me?
Or make a saint of?
Cause I'll give you all the nails you need
Cover me in gasoline
Wipe away those tears of blood again
And the punchline to the joke is asking
Someone save us
Heaven help us now
Come crashing down
We'll hear the sound
As you fall
And would you pray for me?
(You don't know a thing about my sins
How the misery begins)
Or make a saint of me?
(You don't know
So I'm burning, I'm burning)
And will you lay for me?
(You don't know a thing about my sins
How the misery begins)
Or make a saint?
(You don't know
Cause I'm burning, I'm burning)
Cause I'll give you all the nails you need
(I'm burning, I'm burning again)
Cover me in gasoline again
MY EFFIN' NECK HURTS!!!!
GRRRRRRR!!!!!
Thanks for the sweet comments last night, ladies. If I could give you all unicorn hugs, I would.
Have a great day!
My eyeballs hurt. :(
Hey Smoke! FASC! PP! PPU! Sdock!
It's Tuesday, is if you needed reminding! I hope it's a good one!
For old time's sake! ! !
!!!!
Damn, I'm really not that excited.
Buwhahaha! Incoherancy at it's best!
I've never had a unicorn hug. X_x
Sounds like fun.
Mwah! There's a princess kiss just for you today, PPU.
Cuz you know, I ♥ you just a smidge. I'll still smack your ass when you need it though.
MUUUSSSSSSTAARRDDDD!
I love that song you posted at Mayo's. It's not corny at all.
I used to sing it all the time.
^_^
Alright, back to work for me! GRRR!
Wishing all the porchies a fantastic day!
Hey guys! I have been trying since eleven and CANNOT GET ON MAYO'
WTFFFFFF
Can one of you post a looong message for me?

WTFFFFFF

I can tell this message is gonna take me hours to writwe and post. O_o I am hiding in the basement.
Hey everyone! Well here I am at work and you'd think I'd be all complainy, hehee, but today is a good day. No, I don't. Know why. I hope you are all having jusst as good a day.
Firast of all THANK YOU to everyone who stuck up for Fim. I don't see how anyone could say things like that about her. Obviously she pissed someone off. Gee I wonder who. :
;D Also thank you to all who had a kind thing to say about me too. But believe me, word likw "UGLY" have long__LONG--since lost ther potency with me. I have never relied on my face or looks to get me anything. Are there days when I wuld gladly go aound with a paper bag over my face, HELL yes, most days, LOL, but truly, I do NOT base my self worth on my features. I have enought to say and to do. So honestly it does not bug me. It is a blessing in some ways. When people find vvalue in you, you know it is becasue of who you are. You never have to question it. ( Now I am hiding in one of the hospital wards.). :D
Moving on.
Mayo there is something I wanna twll you especially. Well a few somethings. First of all, last night *I* had a dream about carp and koi! But it wa kind od
F a nightmare. It was scary while I was dreaming it but is hilarious in te retelling. I will tell it later; it;s very funny. So I will write it later.
T
The other thin g I. Wanna tell you todat Mayo, well it's a little hard to describe. No' it's no big deal or anyting, quite insignificant really.. It's just that today is a randomly good day. No, nothing spectacular is going on. It's cold, normal, and all the usual little annoyances are. In place but. It' s just one of those days where I have a really good vibe. I have long since quit thinking that this portends something extraordinarily good, likewinning the stupid lottery or getting spirirted away by benevolent fairies who will hook me up with some nice, witty, weird and good looking strabger or anything. But it doesn't have to. You know what I am sayimg? Just random happiness like "wow, today just feels pretty neat! What a good vibe I am getting." Like that. A witchy kind of thing maybe with spring around the corner? Or it doesn't matter why.
Also my retarded friends are making me laugh, which they always do but, today, it's just funnier.
Well, you know, even though some of your posts are funny, they are hardly ever light hearted. You have a very dark sensibility. I like it very much it's just that I hope that you have days like ths too. Many of them.
You said once you were depressive. Mayo, I have nnever been a clinical depressive so I don't pretend to know what it is like. Everyone deals with angst and th blues and times when they go, "what for?". But depression is a whole 'nother ballgame. I won't prwtwend to know what you feel like or say something lame like, "I hope you feel better" cause maybe ita4 not that easy. But I just hope that you have days like this on, random joy.
(Basement again)
So there is this gal obviously who is saying you are recently divorced and
That is highly personal so I won't ask. All I will say is that intellectual crush notwithstanding I sincerely hope that is not true. Because that is never an easy ordeal. And we don't wish negative things on people we like. But eiher way, either way I hope it is good with you.
Oh man you are gonna laugh when I tell you my stupid dream.
I am sorry ths is so long and so rambly. When you write over two hours TWO HOURS and you can't see the screen it is all stram of consciousness.
Welll anyway, this is what I hpe for everyone nice. Have a randomly happy day full of good vibes, a
Even if all they are is just there.
hi K!
i am only here for a few more mins but princess is around so if i'm gone she will post it no doubt.
done it K.
Thank you so much' that rocks! :)
K,
I know you don't care about hearing this shit and you don't need anyone to say it and all that but can I tell you something? Well, you don't have a choice because I'm gonna say it anyway.
I think you are gorgeous.
Inside and out.
Gah!!!!!!
Someone come talk to me! I have twenty five minutes for left for lunch and I'll be damned if I'm gonna work.
PPU?
Don't make me come drag your little sneaky ass out of the shadows again.
See how you are, PPB? I was paying someone a nice compliment and here you were threatening violence.
OMG! There you are. O_O
That was weird.
She is very pretty. I think so, too. Very strong-looking, ya know? Confident.
Definitely. Confidence can be sexy.
Guys that's very kind of both of you. Thank you. :)
Guys that's very kind of both of you. Thank you. :)
Guys that's very kind of both of you. Thank you. :)
PPU,
You know how I love violence and torture. ^_^
OMG! PPU,
My neck hurts so bad. Did you put some kind of magic unicorn spell on me?
Do you have a voo-doo doll that looks like me that you stomp on and poke with your horn?
Okay, that sounded a little dirty. O_O
It hurts soooo freakin' bad. Wahahahah!
I am sorry, honey. Maybe you carry all your mean anger in your neck. I will rub it for you, hot stuff.
Bwah!
Ya think? Hmmmm.
I probably flipped my hair around and snapped it too hard. ^_^
Seems like it may be getting a little steamy in here.
I'll return later. ;)
hi porchies!
how goes it??
EEEEEEEEEKKKKKK!
I gots five more minutes!
Princess and PPU, you two are so sweet. I just 'awww'ed'(is that spelled right?) when I read your compliments to Kapunua.
hi anima!
its quiet isn't it?!
you good?
hi mustard!
i love that song too.
very to the point!!
you good?
I'm totally good :)
I'm watching shit on Youtube.
"Venom" at Reading.
How are you doing?
Wassup, porchies?
*TACKLES*
MUWHAHAHAH!
Nothin'. Watching stuff of YouTube.
i'm good mustard.
sadly i am also outa here!
shit i know!
love to you all!
catch you tomorrow.
Off to feed my doggies. I'll be back in a few mins.
Im back.
Here!
Sdock, I'll be back in 15 minutes.
Okay, back.
And yes.
When I get to that time, whenever it decides to hit, I'm never prepared. So, any little thing sets me off.
Hey porchies!
Thank you for everything today. ^_^
Mustard,
I'm lonely. I get tired of myself sometimes, ya know? I don't always keep myself very good company.
Hey Jules!!
Hello, Jules! Can't wait to hear about the dream!
I'm lonely. I get tired of myself sometimes, ya know? I don't always keep myself very good company.
You're so much braver than I am. I can't ever say those words. I can't ever just fucking say it, even though I know I am. I can't help it. There's nothing I can do about it. It just is what it is. I have only one thing that makes it not feel so bad.
I know where you're at. I'm not just saying that either. I know. We're in two entirely different situations, yet the feelings are still there.
I wish I had the answers to make it stop hurting, because I know it is. But, I can't even find them for myself.
Yeah, well the fucked up thing is this....here's what I recognize and acknowledge...I'm not good company to myself because I don't love myself so therefore even if I were to have someone here with me..."loving" me. There would still be lonliness and emptiness.
Right?
In all likelihood, yes.
I wish I could say it wouldn't be that way. It may help to have someone who respects you and your values and what you think is important, but I guess at the end of the day, all of it comes from inside us.
It's just finding it.
Wonder if Mayo will be our cellmate in our self imposed prison?
Wouldn't that be pretty nifty?
That's so weird. I just went back and read our comments to him this morning.
I've thought about it pretty much all day. And I think we have it nailed down.
Yeah...we can see the answers, but we can't get to them.
Wonder if Mayo knows what they do to guys like us in prison?
Sorry, I could not resist.
Haha!
WIN!
It was pretty lame, but oh well, oh well, oh well....I snickered.
We could always play shadow dodge ball, I suppose.
OMG. My mother-in-law just put a icy-hot patch on my neck and it's burning. And I smell like a peppermint.
O_O
I'm about to go take a bath. I'll be back in about a half hour or so.
Smoke, don't lick it.
Ewwww. My neck or the patch?
Bwahahahah. That would be nasty.
Now I gotta go get damn cigarettes. WTF? I don't smoke. DAMN IT!
I'll be back in just a minute. >_<
Oh and by the way, Kapunua:
You have nothing to thank us for. PPU and I calls'em like we sees'em. Don't we, PPU?
You are and I just hope you know it.
I am back.
Smoke, ummm I will pay good money to watch you lick your neck.
I scrolled down really quickly and at first just caught the comment, "Smoke, don't lick it." I took a moment to wonder what you could be talking about before reading the rest. ^_^
Solly and Splash, I really do wish I had some answers for you, for Mayo, for everyone. I guess I get lonely sometimes, but rarely. I'm used to being on my own and I quite like it. I like the space. I amuse the hell out of myself. I don't know, maybe that's pretty sad too, huh? ;) But I like it inside my head. Mad and wonderful things go on in there. I wish I could explain it, I wish I could give everyone a key, you know?
"And thank god, you weren't there to watch me hit bottom."
I never tire of this song.
Ever.
Jules, do you know how awesome you are? Like, totally awesome. The guys said it best today. I hope you believe them.
I just love unnecessary commas.
PPU said it so it must be true because PPU only speaks the truth.
PPU was the basis of all court room decisions.
"Do you swear to tell the PPU, the whole PPU, and nothing but the PPU so help you, uh, PPU?"
Are we aiming tonight?
"Do you swear to tell the PPU, the whole PPU, and nothing but the PPU so help you, uh, PPU?"
^_^
That's funny. PPU is gonna laugh, too.
I guess so, Sdock! I'll be on in a few.
You think, Smoke? Nothing like unicorn laughter!
I wish I could hear them laugh. Funny, I always imagine PPU talking in this real serious voice. Never gets excited, always the same tone.
Very calm.
It would be nice to hear them laugh.
You guys rock my face off. ^_^
Wanna AIM?
Oh and I know you think I forgot, but I did not.....
Solly ♥ PPU!
