Hiatus




In the absence of thought;
Of light
And of contemplation,

She studies.

Do not wish for my return,
For I am tenacious;
In my arduous task,

I will succeed.

A whispered echo dwindles;
Of dreams
Left to the imagination,

She pursues.

in the plethora of broken thoughts;
contemplation without resolve,

vanquished by studies

Do not wish for my return,
For I am sinking;
In my arduous task,

there is no success.

A whispered echo dwindles;
Of dreams
Left to the imagination,

where next in this nothingness

Never loose sight of your dreams, cause what else do you have to live for. Work hard, study smart, and you will reach your dreams....

Anonymous is clever enough to fancy him/herself a poet but can't even give him/herself a sweet blogger handle?

Here are a few tips, dude/dudette:

1.)If you're going to choose a name consisting of more than one word, simple alliteration or rhyme will help people remember it. You could use pussy_wussass or peter_the_shiteater, for example.

2.)Short is memorable. So, while the blogger handle twat may be taken, use your creativity to come up with a slight variant. For example, twazzer, twatley, or twaat666. Use your imagination and just have fun with it.

3.)After you have selected an appropriate blogger handle, the next important step is choosing an avatar that represents your name/personality. I’m spooky, you see, so I have that gore metal image as an avatar. I’m sure you’ll be able to find a picture of an infected hemorrhoid, compacted bowel material, or gonorrheal driplets to match your personality.

With a little bit of thinking and a little bit of effort, you won’t have to go around hassling bloggers anonymously. No need to thank me. I live to help others.

Good luck with the studying, Neko.

maybe anonymity fits my personality better than a cheezy avatar and rhyming nick.

fortunately, you also live to die, so go do that.

I can't tell if you're cranky because someone is wearing your colon like a wristwatch or because no one is.

my sanctuary may be public, but it is still my domain.

i do not tolerate wicked words here.

cleanse thyself, or find somewhere else to pollute.

and if you want to spill your sour grapes, give me a name to anchor to the tide of vinegar.

That be words from the core Neko!!Words be what makes what's inside be out and when you can make them words be outside, then you can make others understand what makes you BE on the inside.

And THAT ain't something that everybody can do!!

Anonymity may be a safe haven but it ain't no fun to be an identity hermit - GO ON!! Be creative goddammit!!!

i wish ye were but a Constant Reader, Pete.

That'd make my heart smile.

A note for the keeper of her sanctuary: "Sorry for the anonymity, I keep forgetting my blogger password and I'm gatvol to keep requesting it. However I am not the lame ass bear ****** that I see visited your blog! END"

A scythe is so last century you know!

And my steely needles is not steely at all, they are fire hardened tungsten from the pits of mars.

Skryf jy APT môre? Sterkte, en onthou jy kan nooit te veel detail gee nie en bly by die tyd!

ag dankie, Dood!

di APT ws ni te bad ni. het darem net 45 nodig om deur te wees. hoop ma vir di beste.

hi, mr eric!

i thought you had deserted me, but i could not guess at my transgression.

glad to see you have returned. hope the wedding is/was fun. i think i had more fun at weddings when i was a kid. now, they are just exercises in depression.

echoes of, "when are you getting married??" make my tummy turn.

dear anon.

wth?

hi there, pinks!

eh, death is an ole budy and confidant of mine. its this nameless guy/girl/thing that's getting on my nerves. i like to know who i am addressing, or who is criticizing me.

thanks for the well wishes! il be sure to post the test results!

im just relieved the tests are done with for this year. sigh.

^_^

2 more exams to being a CA!!

w00t w00t!

anon: "dreams, like being able to write proper english?"

i can only assume that this was directed at me.

nice.

and who are you to judge? who indeed.

it is easy to fling mud when one is nameless. lacking the courage to put a name to your insults.

unlike some [who remain nameless], i do more than just string some big words together.

i am unimpressed.

i am not amused.

i believe my english is fine, better than that of most, actually.

i may not write for a living. and, english is not even my 1st language. but, doing it "properly", as you pointed out, anon, is certainly not one of my dreams.

i think i meet and exceed on that score.

instead, i dream of greater things...

things, i am afraid, someone of your capacity, would struggle to understand.


can't even come up with a good blogger handle... hmph

your final post:

it wasn't directed at you. your english is smooth as a baby's ass. look at nsp's post

your second last post (wth):

it's a pun on eric313's post

Do i know you, anon?

hi, alewyn!!

ek sien jou blog bestaan ni meer ni.

"first post"?

het ek al genoem hoe bly ek is dat apt iets van die verlede is? hoop mar ek is deur.

1e vraestel was makliker as 2e een..

Blogger eric1313 said...

no way did I desert you!

You couldn't possibly transgress enough to make me up and disapear, not that you transgress at all.

The wedding went well, and I have another this weekend, only this one is my brother's wedding and I am standing up in it.

Hope you are well. I had to move away from Detroit--there's no work to be had aside from food service bullshit, and it was going to be a pain or avtually impossible to go to college downtown. So I transffered my credits and I'm going to finish my degree at Michigan State University, which is an excellent school, renowned for it's party atmosphere, but I'm older and mostly serious now, so that fact is wasted on me.

Upheaval! but good, because I am moving forward. The only problem is that it's going to cost about nine thousand dollars per semester. ouch! I will owe my soul after graduation.

what's up with you?

Hope you are well and hiatus is doingg is thing for you, whatever that may be. Got a couple of dark poems over there at the place, would love your opinion.

Be cool and don't do anything I wouldn't do, since if I won't do it, it has to totally suck.

some of my comments have vanished... hmmm..

hi, eric!

nothing much happening on my side. just working like a slave, and getting paid similarly.

i will have a gander at your new work asap. they are always inspirational and clever.

i have to drive pretty far daily now, so i dont have as much online time as i used to.

a pity.
