When all the world's in darkness, then we'll see
Who's prospered in the soothing light of day
We'll know which one of us is truly free.
Your life is built on things that cannot be
Embedded in your soul, to never stray
When all the world's in darkness, then we'll see,
How well greed sets you for eternity;
With money and possessions sucked away
We'll know which one of us is truly free.
My soul has loved, and seen hostility
Is yours enough, just living for today?
When all the world's in darkness, then we'll see.
I'm happy in myself, just being me
You're happy but it's happened the wrong way
I know which one of us is truly free.

The Window Blind Manufacturer
The Window Blind Manufacturer
I'm a window blind manufacturer
I manufacture window blinds
Were you to get to know me
This is what you would find:
I'm a blind manufactured window
I'm blind as blind can be
I cannot see a single thing
Though all can see through me:
For I'm a blind window manufacturer
That everyone must hate;
I can't see why, for I always try
But my windows are never straight!
I manufacture blind windows
Though some say it is cruel
I'm bound to do it all my life
It's the window-makers' rule:
I was manufactured by a blind window
That's why I look quite odd
My head is stuck between my knees
And falls out when I

They walk ahead of me
almost holding hands,
a puffy red heart almost suspended
above them in a conjoined dream cloud,
and I almost stab it with my cigarette,
send it sputtering and whining into the night.
Tomorrow while I'm taking out the trash
I imagine each of them will be dictating
love letters to a friend, each planning their ascent
and subsequent colonization of the other:
she'll teach him to wear deodorant more often,
take off his socks before they go to bed,
while he'll convince her Hemingway is a saint
and Emily Dickinson is Martha Stewart.
While I'm rinsing off a spoon, running the garbage disposal,
they'll be on th

Uncoordinated Longitude
When I picked up the phone she told me that she missed the trains
and the way the rain smelled in the summer.
I scratched a pattern in the table with my thumbnail. I stretched
the phone cord between my fingers and said I was sorry.
She asked what I had to be sorry about and I told her I didn't know.
I twisted the cord into a clover shape while I remembered
her laugh when we picked up the penny off of the tracks, tossing it
back and forth, watching it catch the light and throw it back.
She asks me where I am and I know she does not ask where so much
as why.
The police were out in force, sirens flashing everywhere
I didn't understand, I couldn't see how it was fair
I suppose it was my punishment for being such a fool
And I still regret the day that I peed in the swimming pool.
Very soon the whole world knew, I was on the evening news
Thousands came to talk to me, the journalists formed queues
I was being sent to jail, because I broke the golden rule
That at no cost must you ever pee in someone's swimming pool.
They collected water samples, fingerprints and DNA
And told me I was guilty; there was nothing I could say
I supposed that prison couldn't be a whole lot worse than school
But I
Aargh, where the hell did I get to?! Haven't been writing anything but that's no excuse ;P
I'm coming back to dA now, and hopefully I will get sufficient inspiration to start writing again :thumbsup:
Hugs and apologies and llamas to everyone I haven't spoken to in months

We're going to Wrexham (North Wales) tomorrow with school for the hockey cup finals... we're staying overnight, I'm quite excited! See you when I get back, fingers crossed we win!! :pray:
