( A university-life vignette) It’s Saturday morning. Lisa, Leong and I were in the common area, lazing about. “This is what happened to us (Lisa and I) last night.” I said, beginning to explain last night's trauma to Leong. “We were at the event and it was dead and empty—there was just another couple there.

Premium Member A Theme Song For The Malcontent
A jukebox ending the silence masks the dialogue in your mind; That beat’s a saving grace, with a chorus left on repeat; Guitars that are louder than hell are fresh air that open those lungs; Finally you exhale, the sound explodes into a storm; Snarling they call it an anthem, put your money where your mouth is! Sometimes it is joined noise. Either way? It...

The carousel horses, their paint chipped and worn, Dream of merry-go-rounds, of days yet unborn. Once, children squealed, clinging to their steeds, Now shadows dance, where happy laughter bleeds. The cotton candy stand,...

Premium Member The Green Scene
Grass is green, they say it's true But green ain't just a simple hue Green's the colour, green's the life Green's the struggle, green's the strife Some folks green with envy's sting While others green up everything We green our planet, plant by plant But some just green their pockets, can't you understand? The grass is green on the other side That's what they...

Premium Member Second Theme
The sun is fading slowly, drinks are on the tray Midsummer days are still, with skies of blue and white The evening strawberries decline in cups of clay Petunias heady smell spreads out tonight It starts with mournful cry of gulls in twilight air The overture of yours, that weeping chord! Then comes a theme of oboe, I am...

1. Building Tension Did you ever stand on stage, behind the big curtain. Standing there peeking out from behind the curtain, watching the audience looking at the stage. Your knees are shaking, your mouth is going dry. Your thoughts are racing, will I remember my lines? The act before you is almost done, your time is coming up way too fast. This is "building tension"...

"a new theme song" always in the darkest of moments there remains life breathing and beating with fallen angels holding on carrying grace silently with unseen tears and alone doing what they do best showing their painted face every emotion tucked away and hidden so far away forgetting the loss of life and oneself yet still glowing outwardly in the center of...
