Yeah, I want a love like that.
Like Johnny and June.

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
Leaves are falling down

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.

Hi Porchies!

Morning Porchies! :)
I iz still sweepy.
Hope you all have a wonderful day!
^_^
Oh and I'm still pissed off about my name. >_<
Morning!
That's my new favourite song, princess! =)
Have you seen Flobots other video for Handlebars (2006 version), made by one of their friends who was at film school at the time?
Just a warning - there are some graphic images of war, death and disaster from 2m55s on.
Have a great day everyone =)
Oh no, PP! I haven't seen that one. I'll definitely watch it when I get home today.
Have a great day! :)

Mornin' porchies and unicorn. Have a nice day.
☺
*strolls in*
Ehhhhh, I don't think today is going to be such a good day. I kind of feel it in mah bones. Probably one of those that will have me lost in thought.
Have a great Thursday (today is actually Thursday, right? I almost told SS to "have a great Wednesday tomorrow" last night >.<), everybody! See you all later!
Well, I am bored. >_<
I'm hungry.
I guess I should make a sammich.
Maybe pack some more shit up.
Maybe take a nap.
Ummm, make me a sammich while you're at it. Then take a nap for me cuz I would be doing that right now if I could.
Hiya guys!
I'm still mad from last night.
Hope you are all having a terrific day! ^_^
Just stopping by to say "hi."
Super bizzy today.
I was getting kinda tired
Of her endless chatter
Nothing I could say
Ever seemed to matter
So I took a little drive
Just to clear my head
I saw a flashing neon, up ahead
It looked like a place
To find some satisfaction
With a little less talk
And a lot more action
I paid the man at the door
And pushed my way to the bar
Shouted for a drink
Over a screaming guitar
A drunk on a stool
Tried to mess with my head
But I didn't even listen
To a word he said
I knew somewhere
Amid all this distraction
Was a little less talk
And a lot more action
A little less talk
If you please
A lot more loving
Is what I need
Let's get on down
To the main attraction
With a little less talk
And a lot more action
Well she was fighting them off
At a corner table
She had a longneck bottle
She was peeling the label
The look on her face
It was perfectly clear
She said - somebody please
Get me - out of here
The look she shot me
Through the glass refraction
Said a little less talk
And a lot more action
A little less talk
If you please
A lot more loving
Is what I need
Let's get on down
To the main attraction
With a little less talk
And a lot more action
☺
Awwww, that takes me back to my high school days. :)
As long as it didn't take you back to your boyfriend's backseat.
Or, did it?
;-)
Good to know. Backseats are way too cramped. Cause cramps too. Especially leg ones.
Girl, you know it's...Girl, you know it's...Girl, you know it's...
TRUE
My love is for you."
'Cept, it weren't true. Nope. Milli was fakin' it. Vanilli too.
;-)
You're the one I'm dreaming of
Your heart fits me
like a glove
And, i'm gonna be
True blue
baby, I....
I love you
I've heard all the lines
I've cried oh so many times
Those tear drops they won't fall again
I'm so excited 'cause you're my best friend
So if you should ever doubt
Wonder what love is all about
Just think back and remember dear
Those words whispered in your ear, I said
o_0
Smoke,
Don't you remember the song "True Blue"? I was just finishing the lyric.
I'm packing up all my glass stuff now. I decided to wrap it all up in the old clothes that I don't want anymore.
BRILLIANT, right? Yes, I know.
No more sadness, I kiss it goodbye
The sun is bursting right out the sky
I searched the whole world for someone like you
Don't you know, don't you know that
It's true....
Oh, I remember the song. I was just wondering why you guys were quoting it.
Bwah!
I dunno. It's always good to sing 80's songs, I guess.
Your name is fucked up and funny.
I'm sorry, but it's hilarious.
don't you know that is
True love, oh baby, true love oh baby
So if you should, should ever doubt
Wonder what love is all about
Just think back and remember dear
Those words whispered in your ear
I said
hello!!!
anyone around?
look, they're even here
Just sayin' hi... I miss you guys!!! :-(
NIKKI!
I miss you too!
*hugz*
Hi :)
Hi RW,
Whatchoo doin? I just got done washin da dishes.
Hi, Solly ^_^
I iz eatin' a caramel rice cake & sippin' a frosty glass of lemonade.
Yum, I just got done eatin' a stuffed baked potato. It was less than fabulous, it was s'alright.
Smoke and I are going shoppin' tomorrow! Whatchoo want us to buy you?
Shopping??
Ooooo! Um... I would love a box of creamy chocolates, please and thank you :)
Oh, okay, chocolates, consider it done.
We are going shopping for school clothes for LHM, but somehow I think we will manage to drop by Hot Topic and check out the latest fashions. Bwah!
Somebody please get Gwen Stefani out of my head. >_<
I shall get a crowbar and remove her, S&V!
Thankees, Solly ^_^
I can't. Thanks, now you've put her in my head.
I'm listening to Gavin DeGraw right now. It's nice.
This is only the second time this CD has been in my player.
0_0
I have to laugh at my obsession with music.
WTF? Where is everyone on this Thurzday nite?
Iz there a party that we didn't get invited to?
Um yeah, probably.
I ♥ me some Gavin.
I'm in love with a girl...blah, blah, blah, blah.
Did you know that Kristen Cavellari is in that video? Or however you spell her name? The Laguna Beach girl? Yep.
I am full of useless info like that.
RW! Want me to get you sumfin' sparkly tomorrow for me?
It will be my gift from you except I'll pick it out? ^_^
I have never watched the video, Smoke.
RW says she wants choclates!
or chocolates for people who know how to spell.
I may just have to put a Gavin video up tomorrow.
Hmmmm......
Gavin or Jack?
Jack or Gavin?
Or maybe some Three 6 Mafia? Lolli Lolli?
Bwahahaha!
I'm listening to The Fratellis right now.
RW! Want me to get you sumfin' sparkly tomorrow for me?
It will be my gift from you except I'll pick it out?
Yes, please, S&V! That's very thoughtful of me! ;P
Hmmm...you know I am gonna say Jack White, right? Yes, please.
Or....we could go really ol' skool and kick with some NWA or Eazy E!
I dunno The Fratelli's.
or kick it with...for people who know how to talk.
WTF is wrong with me tonight?
We want Eazy!
The Fratellis are a Scottish band, Solly. I luvs them! Also luvs The Cribs, Kaiser Chiefs, and Franz Ferdinand.
Luvs me some alternative Brit pop!
I think we gotta do Boyz n da Hood!
Woke up quick
at about noon
The Fratellis
RW,
Sounds like I might need edumahcaytin on dem.
RW,
That linky didn't work for me.
:(
Today was a Gavin day, just sayin'.
Today was shitty, too.
Pretty sure that was the reason for it being a Gavin day.
RW,
That linky didn't work for me.
Aw :(
It was a linkie to one of their songs.
Hi, Mustard :)
I'm sorry you had a shitty day :(
Cold War Kids would be right in that mix, too, RW. You should give them a look.
NOW THIS IS STUCK IN MY HEAD!
Try this link, Solly. It's to YouTube.
Cold War Kids?
Where they from, Mustard?
*whines*
I cant watch youtube videos.
*sigh*
Life sucks.
I'm going to take a bath.
If I don't come back, you will know....
Know what? O_O
They're American, from California.
I mean their sound is right up there with Franz Ferdinand and maybe a little more edgier, less eh spastic? than The Fratellis.
And I might also add that they are an amazing live band. The stuff I've seen is pretty cool. I would recommend them.
I shall check them out, Mustard, thanks :)
Solly, if you're not back here in 20 minutes I shall send Barbie with a snorkel to look for you!
Where iz you, Solly??
I iz here, Snorklin' Barbie! I iz lurkin.
I sees you, Solly! ^_^
How was your baff?
Does that work? Let's see.
My baff was s'okay, RW. I just can't get too excited about anything today. My life is lame.
I'm sorry, Solly :(
It'll get better, it's just tough to see that right now.
You guys have fun shopping tomorrow!
I hope so, RW.
Oh my goodness, now insensitive was that comment? >.<
Sdock,
I truly believe things will work out, but it will take time. You just have to take it day by day, and eventually, things will begin to get clearer.
Thanks, Mustard.
G'nite, RW.
G'nite, Porchies.
I think I'm going to bed too.
Thanks for the other comment too, Mustard.
It's just suckin' right now. Maybe it won't suck so bad tomorrow. Who knows?
G'nite.
I iz heading to bed too.
Night, Solly :)
Night, Mustard :)
Goodnight, guys.
Have a great day tomorrow.
You too, Mustard :)
