School starts today, and I swear that I feel a touch of fall and perhaps change in the air.
On the other hand, maybe my a/c is set on the wrong temperature.

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

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.

Morning Porchies,
It's the 1st freakin' day of August! Can you believe this? Gahhhh!
Have a great one!
PPU,
I will leave you Solly ♥s and some peanuts fill your soul and your belly.
A kiss and a hug for the first of the month, Socky. =)
You have a good one, too!
I just got an email from my friend in Scotland. Her fiance (who is home in British Columbia) doesn't want to apartment hunt for the both of them as he can save more money living with his mother.
And she's marrying this guy. Oi >_<
Hi Solly & PP :)
Have a good day! ^_^
GRRR!!!
Muwahahaha.
Have a great day everyone! ^_^

*does a happy dance*
It's a pretty awesome website, in my opinion.
Tangent:
When I go to an artist's official website, damn it, I want to be able to find what I'm looking for.
I don't want a bunch of pictures that blink at me.
I don't want a bunch of roll-over crap.
I want the artist's info, the lyrics, current tour schedule, and any other miscellaneous shit that has to do with him/her/it or them. Oh, and journals are the bomb, you know? It's always nice to read what's going on with recording, production, touring, all of that good stuff.
/Tangent
Still very excited! Bring it on!
Hey, Porch-dwellers! Good afternoon to you all!
I like it, too. ^_^
YAYNESS! IT IS FRUCKIN' FRIDAY!!!!
FRUCK YEAH!
Now,if it will just get FRUCKIN' FIVE O'CLOCK!!!
Or..FIVE O'FRUCKIN' CLOCK.
That sounds better.
This is the cutest thing like ever
How sweet is this? OMG. ^_^
All togeddah now!
AWWWWWW!
Every time I see something like that, one entirely different species taking the other entirely different species under its wing, so to speak, it makes me all goopy inside.
I know! It's so sweet. :)
Awwwwwwwwwweeeeeee!!!!!!!
PPUz
Where iz youz?
PPUZZZZZZZZZZZ!!!!!
^_^
I iz bored. When are you coming to see me, Solly?
Treehousers and Porchies!
Solly's home!
Hi Smoke,
I just talked to Dude on the phone and I sorta cried a little.
Damnit, I am mad at myself.
Oh and my dog has decided she wants to NOT stay in her pen.
Gah!
Ummmm, I'll smack the shit out of him. I swear to God. >_<
He just wanted to know if I was going to start moving more of my stuff this weekend and I should have said, "um no, no I do not think I am", but of course I was like, "yeah, I am."
Gotta go feed the doggies!
Be back in a bit.
*is here*
I'm sorry you're down, Sdock. I wish it didn't have to be so hard.
Jack White makes it all better, Mustard.
Well, most of it anyways.
*sings*
"I'm lonely but I ain't that lonely yet.."
Hi :)
*squeezes Solly & Mustard*
"Stick around, could I challenge or dare you to stay?"
*is listening to Jennifer Nettles now*
All I want is a moment of peace, peace without boredom
and to forever remain
breathless....
One of my favorite lyrics of all time....
Hi RW,
How iz you?
I iz quite well, thank you, Solly :) I has a long weekend!
How iz you today?
Up and down...I s'pose.
I had fun at work today. Sometimes, I actually enjoy working for the public. They can be so funny.
I had fun at work today. Sometimes, I actually enjoy working for the public. They can be so funny.
Cool, Solly :)
What is it that you do?
I sit here in silence as I watch your thoughts dirge across your face
You say you feel sick, well I'm feeling sick now as I say
I'm not your messiah, still I'm too much of a saint to tell you
I'm tired of tip-toeing around, all around myself
See I've misplaced my God
And replaced it with something else
I don't want to say it.
Cause you know if you don't say it, it's not real
But I can't go in silence, cause I think and I breathe and I feel
I wish you'd realize that I'm never gonna be your beck and call girl
I collect taxes from hard working people.
Somebody's gotta do it!
I reckon you probably get irate people from time to time?
Yeah, and we register vehicles, do titles and sell license plates, that kind of stuff.
It's okay. Can be way stressful sometimes.
Oh, absolutely, RW. It can get kinda sticky sometimes. Especially when we have to sell peoples property for back taxes.
Have you got any plans for the weekend?
And one last Jennifer Nettles and it's my favorite of hers, I sing this song on an almost daily basis.
The soundtrack of my life....
"Gravity"
Caught in the shadows
My head is spinning
Everything's moving around and around
And the people were betting
And the loser that's winning
Is the one who has dibs on my face in the ground
And I know, "Hey, Suck it up girl"
And I know, "It's perspective you lack"
But my list is red starfish and blue lizards' tails
And I mark one thing off and five more come right back
Well I like the concept of tight vacuum packed
Let's shove fifty pounds of shit into a fifty pound bag
So that keeps me chasing my tail all around
And most of the time it's just me being wagged
And I know I'm at the brow of my being
And I know it's hard to look down
And I'm probably as free as I ever will be
Still I choose to live like I'm gagging and bound
Well I wonder what it's like to walk around weightless
To jump for your heart and never come down
To know the potential of true human will
Without all of this gravity just dragging us down
And I know, one day we will wake up
And I know, and start to live as ourselves
And not let the cowards of history claim us
And stop pointing our fingers at everyone else
Especially when we have to sell peoples property for back taxes.
Oh dear :S I imagine many people would object to that!
Just move more of my stuff, I guess. We might go to the movies tomorrow and see The Mummy. I don't know why though, not like I'm a Mummy fan or anything.
Hey, RW!
Hey again, Sdock! :) Glad you're feeling a bit better because of nice, pretty words.
I'm trying to write some stuff. Don't really know how it's going to turn out.
Yeah, we have to stand out on the courthouse steps and auction it off. Not fun times.
Mustard,
Are you writing our song? Huh? Huh?
Unfortunately, no. :(
Damn.
Have you remembered the name of your band yet?
Sorry!
Did you save what you wrote and what the Anon wrote so we have something to write?
Didja didja?
'Cause I didn't. :(
*is failing hard today*
Damn, no.
No, but it shouldn't be too hard to find, right. We just gots to go back to Sunday last post.
Nope, haven't remember that either.
>_<
Man, we're sucking at this whole band thing.
I've got the vomit on stand-by, just so you know.
Pieces of Emma?
Emma's Razorblades?
Paul's Sweater?
Bwuahahah.
I don't believe those are it. Funny as hell though.
Maybe if we reread Eliza's story, our super awesome band name will come to us.
Emma's Fake Friends?
Ya reckon?
Emma's New Hairdo?
I can't effing remember.
This is soooo frustrating!
Mustard, you have put the song "blackout in the red room" on my mind.
What the fuck was that band name?
Grrrrrrr...
We could always be....
The ProActive Project
Emma's Proactors
Or...
Porcine Dream
"Blackout In The Redroom?" Never heard of it, but will look up the lyrics.
The Discussed ProActive-ators.
Wait, before I do, is that song a product of Jack White?
Mustard,
We also have to use the Zen Unicorn thing for a song title...
What was it?
Please let me wash your eyeballs?
No, by a band called...Love/Hate.
Zenicorn -- Gets The Dirty Out.
Bwuahaha.
Okay, cool.
Hey, Zenicorn is not a bad name for a band....*ponders*
I vote for Porcine Dream!
Zenicorn kinda sounds like Zenical.
Kinda like a either a diet pill or a something to put on yucky feet.
Just sayin'.
^_~
I ♥ our Zen Unicorn though!
It's pretty good, right? Yeah, but damnit what it was gonna be was so much better.
GAH!!!!!!!!!
Hi, S&V! ^_^
I gotchoo a wee grey kitten.
Porcine Dream reminds me of Siamese Dream. Was that your aim?
I like all of them you've come up with.
Hey, Smoke!
I ♥ our Zen Unicorn too.
*wonders if PPU is really for real zen like*
I am watching Nancy Grace.
A kitten? YAY!!! I love kittens! ^_^
Hey Mustard!
Solly,
You lied to me. >_<
Iz you still a redhead, S&V?
'bout what? What did I do?
It's kinda getting lighter now, RW. It washes out. :)
Solly,
You said you was coming to my house. :(
You didn't call me and you left the blog. I thought maybe you and da Rake and LHM was doin' sumfin.
I iz getting my hair done tomorrow.
Gone will be the Ronald McDonald red! I am back to the burgundy, and I'm getting it cut 1920s-like.
Ummm, no. LHM is at his Nana's house. And we was just sitting here watching Law & Order. Like always. O_o
One of my co-workers asked about your hair today, Smoke. She was all like, did your sister dye her hair or has it always been that dark?
You shoulda come to my house, Smoke. Well, I guess it's still sorta my house....hmmm..anyways.
Where is Fimble Star?
Yeah, I'm ready for some blonde highlights. I don't know why I even try.
*sigh*
I'm bored.
I'm sleepy.
Why is it that I'm wide awake all other weeknights, but when it comes to Friday I iz always sleepy?
Come here and eat pizza with me.
Me, too. My husband was like, "Do you wanna go out to get something to eat?"
And I'm all like, "Nah, I got Bagel Bites in the freezer."
O_O
WTF? I don't even like Bagel Bites. I just didn't want to leave the house.
RW, I think it's just mentally we are exhausted and we know we don't have to wake up early in the morning so it's okay to just fall out.
Oh, guess that answers my question then.
Bwah! Bagel Bites FTW!
*has not been to the Leathermouth site yet*
O_O
You must go there, Solly!
WTF are you waiting on? Show Frank some love!!!!!!
It's not all fancy schmancy, so it shouldn't load slowly.
mmkay, well, I am gonna go find something to eat.
Happy noshing :)
I am going to go baff. Be back on a bit later...
You know what I want?
Chocolate Fucking Milk!
I am going to drink myself chocolate.
Yeah, I don't think that's really possible though.
ooohhhh pretty!
Majestic!
So cool!
That's so pretty. I wish I had a coloring book full of pretty unicorn pictures to color!
How badass would that be?
There ain't but about dick on television tonight.
Boredom is bad.
G'nite Porchies and PPUzzz
Night night, Solly :)
Just found this, and it made me think of you guys:
A galloping PPU!
Nighty-night.
