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

Byeeee Porch!
See you guys later! Have a great day!
XOXO
Morning girls and guys!
Socky, I hope he's vamoosed like a goose today.
That wasn't fair of him to do that to you. Especially when you've been trying to get your head together after the separation he insisted on.
Is he forgetful or something?!
Fimmy!
That was too funny yesterday!
I love it when you're doing your free-floing Fimmyness. =)
Kapunua,
POST IT! It's brilliant!
I showed your covering letter to 5'4" and she said yep, she'd definitely read it, and she knows others that would too. =)
Have a great day everyone.
HAI GUUUUUISE!
Solly, I'm really sorry that your day is going to suck. I hope it surprises you somewhere along the lines with non-suckage. :)
PP, thanks! Whoot! I have to re-write that query letter into a cover letter and I still don't have any clear answers on exactly what a cover letter is, but the manuscript is all printed and I'm nervous. :D
Gotta go fold clothes, yay me!
Reminds me of that old camp song:
Peanut
Peanutbutter
And jelly, jelly, jelly, jelly
woohoo! Marshmallows around the campfire anyone?
I saw Def Leppard in 1983 with a bunch of my friends. We fought our way up to the front row.
It was summertime and hotter than hell. We were so hot and sweaty and just about ready to pass out. My normally reserved friend was so excited to be there, that when she saw the roadie hosing down the crowd, she yelled louder than I've ever heard her yell,
"Hey you! Come over here and squirt me with that big, fat hose!"
To this day, I still laugh about it and she now denies she ever yelled anything so crude. :)
Well, back to the grind for me.
I iz home! YAY!!!! ^_^
I iz lonely. :(
Would you like a phoen call, smok?
or a phone call :)
WHADDUP?!
MISS T! I ♥ you, just sayin'. :)
Porchies,
What the fuck's up?
I gotta go feed the hounds and I'll be back.
I ♥ you too Mustard!!!!!!

Fimmy! I'm sorry I missed you. I had to go to the school to get schedules and stuff.
Hi Mustard!
Hi MissT!
Hi Solly!
Hiya Fimmy,
Hiya Mustard,
Hiya smoke,
Hiya Solly,

*looks sad* looks like I missed a lot of fun yesterday.
Thank you smoke for saying that I was missed.
I did enjoy CSI night with mum though.
You iz always missed when you ain't here. I'm glad you had fun though. ^_^
WTF is up with Mayo's today?
God knows smoke.
It is just all anons.
I haven't said hello there yet cos I dunno what to say.
You iz always missed when you ain't here.
Aw, fank u sweetie.

I know. I'm kinda like this--> O_o
Awwweeee, MissT. ♥
Hey, Smoke! Hey, Sdock! Hello, MissT!
I haven't caught up at Mayo's. What did I miss? Bad stuff?
MissT,
I missed you way more than Smoke did.
Hi All!
Just a bunch of anons discussing Mayo. O_O
That's about it, I think.
It is storming at my house. There was a boom so loud that I just yelled "SHITTTTTT!!!!"
Oooo, interesting.
Be back in a bit!
OOhh, it aint started raining here yet. It's just rumblin' and stuffs.
Aw fanx solly sweetie.
I miss sitting on the swing with you and looking at the stars.
I know, MissT. I miss it too.
What have you been up to?
I that lightening just hit something but I don't know what.
It was like a gunshot.
I iz skeered!
Smoke,
If I were you, I'd be skeered too.
Just sayin...
Pffft.
You hush. >_<
I've just been working today solly.
What have the sisters been up to today?
*waves to everyone on the outside looking in*
Hi!
They made us work today, MissT. I had to work all fucking day and Smoke got off early and all because she worked like 18 hours on Monday. Hardly seems fair to me.
PPU,
I am missing you.
Just wanted you to know that.
Solly! Guess what?!?!?
LHM's new principal is a guy that you went to high school with.
He was like, "I know you."
I'm all like, "Nuh-uh."
Bwah!
And my brother-in-law is in the running to be on school council. Buwahahaha. I did vote for him though. :)
SMOOOOOOOOOOKE!!
OMG! I know what video that you have to put up tomorrow!
Are you ready for this?
Are you?
I don't think you are.
Dum, dum dum dum....
"Jelly Roll"
Are his initials LM, Smoke?
Dude, I fail so hard at careers and life and love and...well, just about everything.
Niiiice! Yeah! Lemme go see if I can find it. X_X
That would be the one. He looks exactly the same, too. Not quite as much hair but exactly the same.
Scary. O_O
Did he think that you were me?
It's not fair that you had to work solly, I agree.
Hey, small world with the teacher. Spooky.
Oh, we live in a very small town, MissT. Everybody remembers everybody round here. And people always think I'm Smoke or she's me.
I think he did for a second but I told him my name. By that time, my husband busted in and was like, "Oh yeah, you know my brother, blah, blah, blah."
Jackass.
>_<
They still didn't have LHM's teacher right. Good goobly goob.
Oh and I found Jelly Roll!!!
And LHM just met his new principal with a mohawk. Bwah.
My child kills me. ^_^
Jelly Roll, Sweeeeeeeeeeet!
I don't know where Dude is. Maybe he won't stay here tonight. That would be kind of a nice surprise to the day.
That would be WAY sweet.
Why would anyone want to be in school administration? What the fuck is fulfilling about that besides the big fat pay check?
*wonders*
I hope you get the place to your self solly.
So sisters, do people mistake you a lot.
People think me and my sis are twins.
Just today we got that "am I seeing double" comment again.
It never gets old eh?
MissT,
We used to get that a lot when we were younger. Not so much now, but when I do get mistaken for her, I am so flattered.
Grrrr! I HATE BAD WEATHER!!!!!!
I had a big ol'long comment typed and I lost it. >_<
You should have seen my little niece. She's starting pre-k. I asked her where her room was and she looked at me all like wtf and shrugged her shoulders. She is gonna be a star student for sure. ^_~
She has her uncle's personality. Ha.
I ♥ her. She's bad to da bone.
You are both pretty as a picture.
She sounds so cool smoke.
She's the funniest little 4 year old ever.
She ain't scared of shit either.
So, when K gets her book published, do we get a discount?
Bwahahah! I dunno!
Never mind a discount. It needs to be dedicated to the porchies.
Hee hee, OK maybe that is a little cheeky.
Im talking to Fimmy on the phone.
Say Hi from me solly.
Hi Fimmy!!!!
I'll be back in a bit. I iz going to eat me a sammich. :)
I hereby declare this three-hundred and ninety nine page novel, printed at 5:04 on 20 pound paper, be read and remembered in honor of those who inhabit The Porch.
Also, this novel is for my one true love, my 4 Ever And Ever, the only person I would ever think about buying blingy elephant purses that cost five billion and two dollars, and the person that completes me, Resurrected Wreck.
4 Ever And Ever
4
Ever
And

KapuWreck

Brilliant! In Jules and RW's handwriting. They do it together, or at least I would think Jules would want to do it with RW. They share everything, might as well share a sharpie.

Better yet, tell her that I said to shut up.

This is sounding like the average weekend for a manchester lass.
Working the corner, getting picked up by vice. Etc etc.

I think she's going to go "make a face" at the guy stocking the cases in the dairy aisle.
I mean, that's what I got out of it, not really sure what exactly Fim meant.
Hi, Mustard :)
Is she gonna make her Ooooooo face?
My feets hurt >_<
Aw, I'm sorry, RW! You should soak your feetses in a bubble baff, no? Might make them feel better.
RW, you need a neked man to kneel at your feet so that you can put your feet up on his back.
A need a foot rub!
Wow.
I'm not sure which I'd go with, RW.
Naked man?
Bubble bath?
Hmmmmm.....
I just wants a foot rub!
Not by a naked man.
I don't want to have to look at something like that when I'm trying to relax.
By the way, S&V, I am assembling Frankie's card tonight. I should have it ready to send off to you tomorrow :)
Yayness! I can't wait to give it to him! I mean, I hope I get the chance to give it to him.
I want to squeeze Frankles!!!!

I shall put it in its own envelope, & put the works in another envelope. I shall leave the card envelope unsealed so that you and Solly and Fimmy can have alook ai it if you would like to.
YAY! ^_^
^_^
I am soooooooooo jealous.
Fimbles is a sweetie. She offered to get me frankles autograph if she gets the chance.
That's so cool, Miss T!
For PPU:
You're a one-eyed
One-horned
Flying purple people eater!
Made me think of our resident Unicorn. :)
0_0
RW,
I think that song was written about PPU.
I bet PPU was the very reason that song was written, what do you say?
;)
If PPU eats peoples, I am strangely okay with it!
Hahaha!
Good answer! Maybe you should nicely ask Solly if you could rent PPU for a week, carry it around, and tell un-fluffy people that if they are mean to you, they deal with the unicorn.
I like it!
I bet PPU was the very reason that song was written, what do you say?
Again, TROOFAX!
Dunno, it might be difficult prising PPU from Solly's grasp.
Awwweeee, we ♥ our unicorn.
Are we spreading PPU love around here tonight?
We so are. ^_^
Are we spreading our PPU love like purple jelly on a piece of hot buttered toast?
O_O
Well, ummm, I dunno.

Hi, Sollybear.
PPU! There you are!
It's over now, thank goodness. That was crazy!
How are you?
MOBILE, Ala. - Police believe a body found in a small-time evangelist's home freezer is his wife and a mother of eight, and arrested him on a murder charge as he preached at a south Alabama church. Anthony Hopkins, 37, was being held in the Mobile County jail Wednesday awaiting a bond hearing and appointment of an attorney.
ADVERTISEMENT
Police said no one reported 36-year-old Arletha Hopkins missing, even though she hadn't been heard from in three years. The body was discovered covered in a freezer in a utility room during a police search of the home in Mobile after a relative of the preacher contacted police.
Mobile Police Chief Phillip Garrett said Hopkins was arrested Monday night at at a revival in Jackson, a town in rural Clarke County where he has roots. The pastor of Inspirational Tabernacle Church of God in Christ, Beverly Jackson, told reporters that Hopkins told her he was a single parent because his wife had died in childbirth.
Police awaited results of forensic tests to determine the cause of death, but Garrett said authorities believe it is Hopkins' wife. The freezer was moved to a forensics lab.
Garrett said Anthony Hopkins, the father of six of the eight children, has been charged with rape and sodomy in a separate case involving the female relative and could face more charges related to another relative.
Mobile County District Attorney John Tyson Jr. said the children who lived with Hopkins — who ranged in age from 3 to 19 — have been taken into protective custody by the Department of Human Resources.
Garrett said the Hopkins children were home-schooled. He said Hopkins "kept to himself," and apparently moved from place to place. Neighbors called him "Rev." because he attended church so often, loading the children into a van.
Police said he preached at various churches and did not appear to be affiliated with a particular denomination.
At the church in Jackson, Hopkins was delivering a message about forgiveness that drew encouraging "amens" from the congregation.
Clarke County Sheriff's Chief Investigator Sgt. Ron Baggett said he listened through the church door before assisting in the arrest about 10 p.m. Monday. About 25 people were in the congregation at the time.
PPU!
We wuz missing you like whooooooooah!
What ya been up to?
WTF? Anthony Hopkins? Talk about weird. @_@
*iz here*
Whatchoo guys doin'?
Sorry for the creepy story, but I just saw it on yahoo and I just want to say this to all my friends....Please don't let my ass just disappear. Please look for me. Please don't let 3 years go by and nobody notice.
GOOD GOD!
Talking about crazy southern preachers. Gives me the heebie-jeebies.
I am doing well, ladies. I was just dropping a quick note. You guys can go ahead and AIM.
Take it easy.
PPU! Don't leave so soon!
PPU!
*pouts, pokes out lips, drops head*
You take it easy too and take care.
Gah! I'm gonna have to tie you back to the porch post, ain't I?
Uh-huh.
Have a great night, PPU. Sweet dreams of S&M smoochies!!!!!!!!!!!!
See ya, PPU! Have a great evening!
I can't bring myself to watch Dog anymore.
Jackass.
Well, it was either that or some BBC show about living with small breasts.
Beth won.
People keep disdapeering on me!
:(
Beth's boobies need a show of their own.

You, you said who?
