Fill my soul.
Be truthful.
And sweet.

The mind becomes locked in its singular stare
To the exclusion of everything else
'Til only awareness and the object are there
And even that melts away into itself

I've got to cross my fingers here
Cross my heart there
And just start hoping that the end
Will start it all again

Sometimes for code.
Others for effect.
Sometimes for safety.

A little boy on a winter porch sat with a piece of candy
And the little boy saw a little girl and the snow began to fall
The little boy walked to the girl and placed the candy in her hand
The parents thought it was just cute; but it was altruism in man

But no one is trying in there

To share your secrets, light or grim
To feel a burden being lifted from your shoulders
Even when your outlook seems too slim

I dunno man.  All of these topics on "society" are hogging up my Off Topic section.  If this continues I might have to take up permanent residency in the parapsychology section.  At least there I will be relatively safe from spontaneous posting.

The paradox of existence
The only constant thing
I sing a song to wake the living
But they never ever hear

topic:  stasis

I wouldn't necessarily say that sakoz is talking nonsense, I think that it is his delivery that is flawed.  Of course my opinion should count for little, as I very, very rarely read his posts anymore.  No offense meant to him, I just can't trust someone who doesn't even attempt to use the quote function that online forums provide.  ;)

Oh, and there's going to be an episode of Food For Thought today.  Liv Tyler is scheduled to make a cameo appearance.  Check it out!

( Yeah your right. There is some substance to what he is proposing. I agree it is more his delievery. It just goes on and on, but doesn't go anywhere. There is no point per say. Alot of it is true and even valide, but there is nothing I can see to make changes except what I pointed out as possible solutions.)

When the world is filled with compromise
And all you ever hear is lies.
You know you can count on me.
I'll be here to set you free.

I was laying in bed last night and listening to the rain. Yes we finally got some rain. These lyrics just popped in my head. Wink wink.

Breaking down the society by kicking
In its skull by breaking down the wall
While the lives of those that watch
Are secondary to your selfish cause

One thing you didn't know is that other than Alaska, Alabama, Arizona, and Idaho, the only state that begins and ends with a vowel is Ohio.

Were you aware that the Iroquois tribe of central New York ate their corn vertically, and called it maize?  Probably because it's "a-maize-ing"!

I am but a lowly sinner.
I stumble in the dark.
Even my best works are worthless.
Unless I have Love in my Heart.
