*to the tune of freight train*...

"DUM dum, dum dum, dum, dum dum!"




A roxxier and more original quote from:

HAHAHAHAHA

Nik says "try and top THAT Soh! ;-D"

Sis

You silver-tongued devil,
Keeping me awake and lingering on the brink of exhaustion.
Living on stolen unsaid words from the narcissism of mortals
That deserve all of their flawed perfection.
You plan your sin when they wrap translucent dreams round themselves
And believe that they are safe.
- and you wonder whether I am watching as you fall deeper.

I know the darkest intricacies of your heart so well,
I could carve it,
Fingers tracing indentations, whorls and knobs,
Like those in dying trees.
I have been draped with black manacles, cuffs and chains.
Iron so cold, they bite into my skin,
As if they seek revenge.
They glitter and gleam like bruised jewellery
Only mortal women can bear to don without hearing their pain.
- and you wonder if I can feel yours as you sink lower.

High Flight

Oh, I have slipped the surly bonds of earth,

And danced the skies on laughter-silvered wings;

Sunwards I’ve climbed and joined the tumbling mirth

Of sun-split clouds - and done a thousand things

You have not dreamed of - wheeled and soared and swung

High in the sunlit silence.

Hovering there,

I’ve chased the shouting wind along and flung

My eager craft through footless halls of air,

Up, up the long delirious burning blue

I’ve topped the wind-swept heights with easy grace,

Where never lark, or even eagle, flew;

And, while with silent, lifting mind I’ve trod

The high untrespassed sanctity of space,

Put out my hand,

and touched the face of God.


John Gillespie Magee Jr. (1922-1941)
Pilot Officer
Royal Canadian Air Force

My favourite poem of all time.
