    Friday Poem corner - as we've not had it for a while...

    Dance Of Terror

    by JustbleuWindow panes come crashing down
    Amidst the tears and pain
    Vanishing hopes are gone and flew away
    Up above through twilight
    Shadows cast across the floor
    Reflections of the past
    Trembling thoughts of one
    Dwelling deep within the soul
    A mystical sense of reality
    Captured by the craze
    All in bewilderment
    Of the shock in the wave
    Creatures of the dimness
    Chattering amongst the green
    Everything slows in stillness
    What is this we see?

    Well you looked so stylish I thought you batted for the other camp - thats like the ultimate compliment!

    I couldn't imagine you ever having a hair out of place!

    Very nice. It has a comedy ending if you read your signature as the last line of the poem.

    Rule #76: No excuses. Play like a champion.

      Is it tulipe Hart Lane on a matchday?
      His heart is in the right place - shame we can't say the same about his brain...

        The sense of danger must not disappear:

        The way is certainly both short and steep,
        However gradual it looks from here;
        Look if you like, but you will have to leap.


        Tough-minded Rumsfields get mushy in their sleep
        And break Internatioanl Laws any fool can keep;
        It is not the convention but the fear
        That has a tendency to disappear.



        The worried efforts of the busy heap,
        The dirt, the imprecision, and the beer
        Produce a few smart wisecracks and hangings every year;
        Laugh if you can, but you will have to leap.


        The clothes that are considered right to wear
        Will not be either sensible or cheap,
        So long as we consent to live like sheep
        And never mention those who disappear.


        Much can be said for social savior-faire,
        But to rejoice when no one else is there
        Is even harder than it is to weep;
        No one is watching, but you have to leap.



        A solitude ten thousand fathoms deep
        Sustains the bed on which we lie, my dear:
        Although I love you, you will have to leap;
        Our dream of safety has to disappear.


        -- W. H. Auden

                I know mate, I was there. Wasn't it nice of the police to bugger off and leave the scum to it, having given them an hour in the pub to tool up?
