Home of the Porchies, the Sluts, those afflicted with Smaw Poese, the lonely bitter Hags, the Homie Ho's, the ubiquitous and somewhat cantankerous Unicorn, and anyone else who feels like an outcast from time to time.

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.

Have a great day, Guys!
Mwah! Mwah!
Solly's Random Poem of the Day:
A Pinch of Salt
WHEN a dream is born in you
With a sudden clamorous pain,
When you know the dream is true
And lovely, with no flaw nor strain,
O then, be careful, or with sudden clutch
You'll hurt the delicate thing you prize so much.
Dreams are like a bird that mocks,
Flirting the feathers of his tail.
When you sieze at the salt box,
Over the hedge you'll see him sail.
Old birds are neither caught with salt nor chaff:
They watch you from the apple bough and laugh.
Poet, never chase the dream.
Laugh yourself and turn away.
Mask your hunger; let it seem
Small matter if he come or stay;
But when he nestles in your hand at last,
Close up your fingers tight and hold him fast.
Robert Graves
morning guys!
good luck today K!
9:49,
Don't try to bait me.
was that mayo? i love it!
right no time, had a night from hell with my poorly boy and i am knackered!
have terrific tuesdays the pork!
Morning, all :)
Good luck, K!!!
Hi RW! Have a great day!
FASC, Is your lil' 'un still sick? Awwh, bless him! I hope he gets better soon!
Morning peepity-peeps!
No buckets required this morning I hope, Kapunua!?
All the best for today! =)
FASC, oh the poor little love! I hope you can both catch up on a bit of rest today. =(
Socky, RW, smashing Tuesdays to the two of you as well!
See ya. =)
Morning everyone!
Good luck, Jules! ^_^
FASC, I hope your little boy gets better soon.
Have a great day all!
Whooo-hoooo! Getting closer to Halloween! YAY!
I second the college admissions ass kicking. Leave bruises even.
Oh my gosh, thank you SO much, all of you! ^_^ I can feel your pink bubble. (There's something you don't hear everyday.)
And to the Tesla anon from 6:01, what a meaningful quote from that movie to choose. Awesome! And yes, I thought the movie was great. ^_^
later, guys. Thanks again!
Smoke you obviously have too much stubborn pride to make a REAL apology to Amy and to the others your games and quotes and poems have hurt. You can't swallow your pride and admit that you were wrong and promise not to bring that back to Mayo's.
That place will never heal and it is because of that attitude.
Question,
If the porchies need to apologise to you guys, does that mean the other regs, and the anons need to apologise to us?
if we did something bad in one persons opinion, well what if those people did something bad in our opinion?
Does that make it wrong or right?
This is what i dont get, some people may not like poetry and games, but i dont like some of the things other peopele say, does that give me the right to go and bitch at those people and put them down to make them feel bad?
no, i will not do that because i think of everyones feelings, so please if you are getting one group to apologise then go to the others and even look in the mirror and get them to apologise because i know for a fact that some of the girls around here need a long awaited apology.
and you talk about stubborn pride? well what are you doing now?
Kapunua - may the force be with you!
Anon - I would absolutely apologize for anything I may have done or said that hurt anyone's feelings. That was never my intention at Mayo's. However, what about your apology? The pick, pick, picking that you do towards certain people. That's not right. Mayo seems to approve of the blather and whatnot. So let it be.
Were you around from the beginning when it was mostly fun and games? That's what got ME interested. Fascinating women with a sense of humor.
Are all topics something I want to participate in? Not always, so I don't.
Do I get all the poems and games? Not always. Doesn't mean I don't want to learn something.
So, I apologize for being insensitive to anyone and everyone for anything I may have done or not done in the past, present, or future.
Hiya Jenn! How are you?
Hiya Smoke.
How are you?
Good.
Just waiting on my meeting at 2:00.
Boooo.
Boo for meetings.
I'm watching the rain turn into slop from the sky.
My ride home tonight should be interesting at the very least.
Oooh, be careful! It's sunny and very cold down here. Brrrr.
it's raining and sleeting with some cold and wind thrown in for good measure.
I just want to get home and crack open a book next to a fire in the fireplace.
Only 3 more hours and that wish will be my command.
Oh, that's sounds nice. And a big ol'cup of coffee. Yum. :)
That's not possible at my house though. LHM is trying to put me in a headlock or screaming, "ATOMIC FLYING ELBOW!" and my husband is going, "Watch this! Look at this!" and constantly flipping the tv.
Bwahaha.
Well, that's a bummer.
You should come to my house. We'll drink coffee, roast marshmallows, and chill out.
Can I? Can I?
That would be awesome! ^_^
Welp, gotta clock back in. See you later! Have a great afternoon!
You too.
Have a great afternoon.
WHOOP SQUARED! :D :D
I have a lot of gratitude to write to people so I'll be on in a little while. ^_^

Hey Folks!
Jules, Great news!
Dear Kapunua.
One would like to wish you congratulations. One has seen many issues, many hurdles in your path but now one feels that you are sailing on a river which in due course may hold ruffles and challanges but over all, will be 'just right' and rewarding.
One is extremely happy for you, one wishes you all the best.
I'm gonna clear out my head
I'm gonna get myself straight
I know it's never too late
To make a brand new start
I'm gonna kick down the door
I'm gonna get myself in
I'm gonna fix up the yard
And not fall back again
I'm gonna clear up my earth
And build a heaven off the ground
Not something distant on a cloud
But something real to me
But something real to me
All that I can I can be
All that I am I can't see
All that is mine is in my hands
So to myself I call
There's somewhere else I should be
There's someone else I can't see
There's something more I can find
There's only love to me
I'm gonna clean up my earth
And build a heaven off the ground
Not something dsitant on a cloud
But something real to me
But something real to me
I'm gonna clean up my head
I'm gonna get myself straight
I feel it's never too late
To make a brand new start
To make a brand new start
To make a brand new start
Oh, it's Present! How sweet! Mahalo Present! Your name in Hawaiian is "Makana." ^_^ Thank you for the lovely lyrics. :D
Hiya Solly!
I am off to take a shower, so I'll be back in a bit. :)
You are most welcome.
One hopes all ladies on the 'pork' are well, one noticed mustardisbetter is MIA.
One would like to leave this for her, One misses her holistically.
Throw it all away
Lets lose ourselves
Cause theres no one left for us to blame
Its a shame we're all dying
And do you think you deserve your freedom
How could you send us all far away from home
When you know damn well that this is all
I would still lay down my life for you
And do you think you deserve your freedom
No I dont think you do
Theres no justice in the world
Theres no justice in the world
And there never was
Dammit I missed FASC! She's out the door like a whippet!
Hello Present, lovely to see you on the Pork! :D
Jules I am so glad to hear that you are cooking your tea. Now I need to hear you say you are having chip butties for tea! Heeeeeeee!
Soldier's Poem, Splash would love that!
Bean, I'm still not too sure about eating a buttie. O_O

FASC,
Those darn temperatures always seem to peak at night, the poor little fellow. Hope it doesn't go as high tomight.
And Mustard. No one has seen her?
Gee, like FASC, I was kind of hoping that she might have been turning up for AIM with you girls.
*sends 'miss you' vibes out to MIB*
*waves hi to Lucy, Princess, Present, Anon and Jennicula*
Catch you later. =)

Lovely to see you!
