I swear I saw you
just yesterday
You were dressed in black from head to toe
and walked beside me
As I turned to say "Good Morning.."
You disappeared
And I thought..."How rude."
Quite elusive
I vowed to catch you the next time I saw you
Only the next time
I couldn't see you at all
I only felt your touch
as you moved the hair away from my neck
your warm breath sent chills down my spine
a shiver through my body
but a jumpstart to my heart
my blood flowed like hot lava
I closed my eyes
Next time.....
next time, I vowed to hold on to you
But it was not to be
A flash of light
out of the corner of me eye
was all you gave to me
Clever
You snap me back from my daydream
and into the reality of my life
the bright light awakens me
and helps me see a new path
And I vow
Next time........
Until then...Thank YOU.

mustard!!!!!!
have great saturdays everyone!
You too, FASC!
Everyone have a great Saturday! I'm off for a while, so I'll see you all sometime later.
Stay safe, have fun, and listen to la musica!
Later, dudettes.
I wanna see a scary movie today. What the hell is playing at the movies?
Absolutely nothing. >_<
Have a great Saturday!
See you all later!
Nice, Solly!
How are you guys today?
Today is a weird day for me. But I'm going out shopping with my Mom, my cousin and the Boychild so it should turn out to be a nice day. :)
Hope to catch you guys later!
Sdock?
Everything snazzy?
Yeah, I figured...why make a new post...there were only 9 comments on the last one.
I might pull a Mayo and leave it up for the next 4 days.
Hot damn! You'll be a mighty popular person! ;)
So, spring cleaning, eh? I soooo need to be doing that.
Yeah, I might spew it all over the porch or indoors so look out!
I have my hard hat ready!
Let 'er rip!
sdock10 said...
Oh, give me time, Mustard...I want you to spew too. mmmkay?
It doesn't matter if it makes sense or not.
Damnit, this was supposed to be over here...not waaaaaay over there.
Okay, I'm here!
Honestly, where is that meffer? I'm having withdrawals.
hi guys!!
i'd quite like to make the 5000 comments though??!!
which it won't! new mayo!
*yawns, stretches, plops down on the swing*
*runs up behind Solly and flips her out of the swing*
HA! Gotcha!
You are so mean!
Hi ladies, room for one more?
So WTF? How many of you have read the Mayo post at least 42 times already raise your hand?
*raises both hands*
Yes ma'am, there sure is.
Any idea on the new post?
I'm lost, as always.
Me, too, RW.
O_O
Hi solly babes.
I don't understand poetry, never have and never will.
Damn, sorry guys.
I just accidentally went deep at Mayo's. Pretty cool to think about though. :)
I only have an hour, then I'll be back after that.
Is the poem one of Mayo's, or is he quoting someone else's work?
I'd venture a guess that it's one of his.
I dunno, RW.
I would never be able to even guess that much.
Well, it's one of those posts that I'm not sure I get but I think I do but I don't know why I think I do...make sense? Uh no, no it does not.
I think I get the 2nd part but not sure about the rest...the title, the title, the first part, or the ps....woo hoo for me!
I'm not a fan of the cryptics.
Hmmmm...well, I just keep reading it over and over.
I read it, go "Nope, don't get it" and walk away.
Going over it makes my head hurt.
i think i get the ps. i think solly should get it as well but i may be wrong.
cant stay, doing work on computer and on aim.
catch you later
hhahaha, but does it make you feel anything, missT?
I only get the image.
What I said at Mayo's is how I pictured it and how it made me feel.
What he meant by it, I don't really know.
I get the images, but I'm also getting a lot of mixed meanings behind the images and words.
Hard to sort them all out.
See you later fimmy.
It only makes me feel confused solly.
Anyone else's radar going off re: that anon at Mayo's right now?
O_O
0_0
Right back at ya, S&V!
SS, do you think? Or Mayo in disguise?
Not sure.
Me neither. Doesn't sound like the usual anon, though.
I agree, but does it sound like mayo.
A bit too chatty I think. Mayo never says that much in one go.
Mayo logged in in blue never says that much.
But Mayo as an anon? Maybe.
Doesn't sound like the usual, right? O_O
Maybe RW.
Or as Princess says, Oer.
Lol!
Well it was someone calling people by their whole names, so umm I dunno. Strange, but I like it! I like interesting convo's!
It was making me cranky for some reason. The love convo, I mean, though I'm not sure why. I bailed so that I wouldn't spoil it for everyone else there.
It's nice when a good convo gets going.
Makes people stop arguing for a while.
Now, I am going to eat my supper..yum yum...brb!
Enjoy, Sdock! :D
Bring some for me solly.
RW, I know what you mean. I wasn't in the mood somehow so I stayed out of it too apart from my one Egyptian reference.
I guess it irks me to have the idea presented to me that love's validity is somehow based on the notion that it's more real if it resides outside of the consciousness.
It's just the subject of love full stop. If you aren't in the mood.
Bugger, I've been drawn in.
Speaking personally, there's always been a moment when I find myself falling for someone where I ask myself if I'm willing to face the risks involved in loving this person.
Knowing the possible dangers and proceeding anyway... that's more romantic to me than the thought that I have absolutely no control over it.
Bugger, I've been drawn in.
Oh no, Miss T!
I thought I wasn't going to discuss it either, yet here I am :/
LOL RW.
I agree though, it is romantic to actually have thought about it and choosen to go ahead whatever the risks.
Well, I ♥ you, MissT and you, RW.
O_O
There.
Now feel the meffin' love. ^_^
I ♥ you too princess.
I feel it, I feel the love.
You was #69, too.
Just so you know. Whoop! Whoop!
#69 dude ha ha ha ha ha!
Wassup? I don't want to wash dishes.
Then don't. ^_^
Princess = love :)
Leave them there all week and make dude do it when he gets home.
BWAH!
Hee-hee!
Listen to the princess.
If you don't wanna wash em, smash them all then buy new ones.
Awwh, you guys, I have to wash em.
I like Miss T's suggestion.
Use paper ones then you never need to wash em.
Paper ones don't smash as nicely as the regular kind.
Well, I had run out of paper plates, and besides I had to use pots and pans to cook.
Aw solly, you can lick them clean.
Which reminds me, did I leave my spoon sitting on the desk beside the computer? O_O
LOL princess.
Yes, yes you did.
I thought about it on the way home.
Oops.
Ha!
It's Mayo's fault.
Yeah, totally...
Blame it on Mayo...
It's all that bloody mayos fault, that's what I say.
It really is. Everything is his fault.
Do you think if he causes my divorce, unemployment and possibe bankruptcy....I can file suit against him?
Can I hold him liable?
^_^
I think you could give it a shot, S&V!
Without a doubt princess.
Then he'd have no choice but to build me that castle in the sky and feed me grapes.
Peeled ones, naturally.
With no pips.
I first read that as "no nips".
0_0
Nope RW, you don't want them in your grapes either.
I might do!
*nom nom nom*
I just got through eating more ice cream.
Ummmm, no nips! ^_^
Ice cream = love!
LOL RW.
Yum ice cream. I love cookie dough flavour.
Anyway, I am off to bed as it is 1am here.
You ladies have a lovely night.
Goodnight all.
Night night, Miss T! :)
My fave ice cream is Hagen Daaz vanilla swiss almond - scrum!!
Back!
And pretty sure I missed everyone. :(
Mustard! ^_^
Smoke!
RW!
Sdock, if you're here!
I totally missed half the conversation here while I was at Mayo's.
I dunno who that one was. It didn't feel like Mayo to me, but you know, you never know.
I don't know either, Mustard.
Mustard!!
So, are we gonna paint the walls of DM pitchfork red?
I'm still trying to figure out this post, but I'm getting nothing. Did any of you come to any conclusions?
Mustard,
I've been taking this line by fucking line and it's still not coming together for me.
want me to paint the porch pitchfork red?
that might hurt our eyes though.
Mustard,
What do you call the little thing that you put on a guitar to hold a certain key down. It clips on, do you know?
AIM
I haven't got a frickin' clue, Mustard :/
I sometimes wonder if we're even supposed to get all the posts. Maybe this one was meant for one specific person to understand.
FIRE?
I don't know either. He always speaks in metaphors to me even if he's being literal. It throws me off.
Sdock, you can paint them pitchfork red if you'd like, but I was actually referring to your morning comment about spewing. It made me think of spewing paint, you know, like painting the town red or sumthin'.
Bah, uh, is it a bridge or somethin' like that?
I don't know. I don't use one.
then rising full in the sky
for the time I hide away.
For the time I put on a mask/get in character?
RW, I think maybe so. Sometimes I think that's often the case, and then I feel bad for tearing it apart trying to find meaning.
Mustard,
Oooooooooooooooh, okay, duh....dude, I was totally thinking literal and I never think literally. WTF is up with that?
The p.s. sounds like he's on hold on the telephone.
slips through severed slats
Severed slats = venetian blinds?
Oooo, yeah! Didn't think of that.
Venetian blinds sounds good, or those bamboo blinds they make.
Go, RW....keep it flowing...you're like hot lava!
I'm grasping at straws, I fear, Solly!
Capo! That's it! ^_^
catching sight by chance
announcing a worthy time
A billboard or marquee announcing some sort of entertainment?
WTF is CAPO?
then rising full in the sky
for the time I hide away.
I kinda saw this part as him actually hiding.
Like, "During the meantime, while I'm watching all of this, I'm hiding." Maybe in his thoughts or something.
The little clippy thing that you can use on a guitar to hold a certain key down. Don't ask me, hell, this was Da Rake asking me.
He'd lost his.
while bringing rust to rhyme.
Some reference to older songs/lyrics or words?
Well, in the first stanza, it was catching sight off guard. That was when there was sunlight.
In the second stanza when it's nighttime and the moon is out, it's catching sight by chance.
Why would anything be caught off guard in daylight?
That's what I thought, RW.
(As we depart, we arrive.)
I think this is significant. But damned if I can make heads or tails out of it :/
Maybe he's burning his words?
In the daytime is when you pretend
and you make believe that everything is okay.
O_O
"I wouldn't burn my own house down."
Snap.
In the daytime is when you pretend
and you make believe that everything is okay.
True.
And then nighttime, that's when shit catches up with you.
Mustard,
That was my first thought...the burning of his words....but then I thought maybe he doesnt want to think about something.
From lyric baring branches
pick the last pack of matches
and set alight this balefire
for grieving my darkest desire.
OR!
"From lyric baring branches, pick the last pack of matches..." Maybe the lyrics are the matches. Maybe the words are doing the igniting.
Mustard,
exactly...at night it all catches up with you and the truth comes out...it haunts you.
That could be it. Hmmmmmm.....
Dude, that shit sings me to sleep. I need a muzzle is what I really need.
for grieving my darkest desire
hmmmm.....that's my favorite line
RW?!?! Where are you with your intelligence?
Fimble: I'm still working on it! Just a few more minutes!
Why does it always feel like it's the end with Mayo?
Nah. Surely not.
No, I don't think so....not at all.
No, no! :)
I'm not saying it is at all. I'm just asking why it always feels like it's going to be the end.
Like RW said, this kind of feels like it's to someone else.
I immediately thought of that post when he was talking to the girl. Remember that one? And he was cold and sitting in the middle of the room?
That's what I thought of.
RW?!?! Where are you with your intelligence?
With my what? 0_0
Maybe he's burning his words?
Symbolically? You could be onto something there.
Oh, yeah, I see what you're saying. I think sometimes it's not meant for us to figure out, ya know?
Which is good for me cuz I usually can't figure him out. ^_^
Smoke: Sometimes I think that, too. Sometimes I just let the post sit there and I draw what I can from it.
RW: How do you mean?
And also, what's the smashing of the glass got to do with this?
How does that play in?
RW: How do you mean?
Discarding old songs. Getting them out of his system, moving on.
Okay, yeah. I can see that.
Maybe he's trying to quit sing the same song, as it were. Yeah, I can see that.
The smashing of the glass reads to me like carnival games. You know, win a prize for knocking over the bottles.
Actually, this whole post feels of carnival/fairground to me.
Okay, you guys keep working on this. I'll be back in a bit. ^_^
Bah!
RW, I think that's it. Here, look:
Until evening’s effulgence
slips through severed slats
catching sight by chance
announcing a worthy time
while bringing rust to rhyme.
From lyric baring branches
pick the last pack of matches
and set alight this balefire
for grieving my darkest desire.
It's nighttime, the moon's out and slipping through the venetian blinds (severed slats), and he realizes that that night, is the "worthy time." Tonight's the night to do this.
"While bringing rust to rhyme..." Think love letters/songs. Maybe he's written love songs or poetry to someone, someone he loves? Maybe he's crying? Having to let go of some memories, so I'm sure it's painful.
So, he uses the love notes/letters/poetry/songs to burn the thing down.
How's that?
Okay, Smoke! See you in a bit!
Maybe this is actually just a continuation of that other post.
Remember the one where he smashed all of the dishes?
I don't remember that one, Mustard. I am going to have to read back.
Here it is:
I spread out the cloth for the dishes to lay.
The chipped rims and faded patterns
of plates that held the sustenance
of our years, pulled from the hutch.
Once careful, I now slam them down hard.
And it feels good that way.
The sharp clink of ceramic
greater comfort than the quiet smooth edges.
I wrap the sharp and cold pieces for trash
swallowing more pride than food.
Mustard @ 9:06pm:
Could be!
To be honest, this post has me baffled.
Ah, okay. I remember that one now.
That one felt of a break with the past. Maybe this one is too?
Maybe so, it's kind of feeling like that.
So, maybe he's letting go of some things. Breaking new ground or something?
I don't really know.
Mustard,
That's the way I read the 2nd part too..exactly.
(As we depart, we arrive.)
As we leave behind what we've done in the past, we come to our future.
Or something like that.
Something to do with letting go of the past and living in the now.
Totally, RW...or as we leave one place we arrive at another...like a tour.
...just sayin
Okay, hot damn.
So, we're onto something.
He's leaving something behind, maybe a relationship, maybe not. Maybe it's just a feeling. Maybe he's changing himself or something.
Stepping out into the great unknown.
RW, As we leave behind what we've done in the past, we come to our future,
that ties perfectly into what we were saying.
Ok, so what is the subliminal message?
And to tie in the camera thing, we normally associate cameras with taking pictures.
Producing memories. So, there's that.
Uh, I dunno, Sdock.
Well, me neither...I guess that's why it's subliminal...right?
Or maybe I do get it and I just don't know that I get it..hmmm...
Producing memories. So, there's that.
And also destroying them as it seems he's doing that here.
Totally, RW...or as we leave one place we arrive at another...like a tour.
...just sayin
Yep. I hear you.
This post is very much tour/venue grounds-like to me.
It feels like PR.
A subliminal message is a signal or message embedded in another medium, designed to pass below the normal limits of perception. These messages are unrecognizable by the conscious mind, but in certain situations can affect the subconscious or deeper mind and later actions or attitudes.
I wonder if tomorrow when we wake up we will all be craving mayo on our food or something. The dude is pretty crafty. I wouldn't put it past him :)
"Thoughtfully holding the line"
I'd thought that was in reference to being on hold on a phone. But it could also meaning holding someone's place in a line-up.
I wonder if tomorrow when we wake up we will all be craving mayo on our food or something.
That would be a first for me, anon. I don't even like mayo!
I don't get a carnival or fairgrounds feel.
I feel a house. Like, a really big, spacious, beautiful, empty house.
Hmm.
I'll have to reread, Mustard.
But not tonight, 'cause it's making me dizzy!
Maybe we should sleep on it.
I think we've done pretty well though! It's hard to make sense out of that dude, because like the Anon has said and like we all have said, he's good and crafty.
You know, I've gotten so used to cryptic posts being left for us that whenever SS posts a riddle or something I find myself reading way more into it than is actually there.
SS is pretty straighforward, thankfully!
Time for me to head to bed.
Have a good night, all :)
Nite, RW.
I think I'm heading off too...
Nite, Mustard.
Nite, Porchies!
PPU, I haven't left you ♥ in a few days...so here's some
♥s.
Could it be about night time poetry?
Anyone around, want to go on AIM?
i have AIM toothpaste.
LOL, Anon!
Cinnamon? I've used it before. It's cheap, but it totally does the job.
