Pale Fire: Watching the clock fall

Time means succession, and succession, change
Hence timelessness is bound to disarrange
Schedules of sentiment. We give advice
To Widower. He has been married twice:
He meets his wives; both loved, both loving, both Jealous of one another. Time means growth,
and growth means nothing in Elysian life.

Pale Fire: Good Question.

"And now what shall I do? My knight is pinned.."


Who rides so late in the night and the wind?
It is the writer's grief. It is the wild.
March Wind. It is the father with his child.

The Implications of J

Implications are unrealistic. In reality, an implication proves that the mind is, on occassion, overwhelming to the being (for instance, you can overcome these occassions through will power, God, etc...)


to be cont.

the wind

I watched her sit, 50 moons, and each night, the problem was the same.

Everytime she went away, then up, the sun, it came


- the breeze outside last night

Pale Fire: I Be...On It All Night...

Man....I be On it All Day. Straight Up....

"How not to panic when you're made a ghost:


Sidle and slide, choose a smooth surd, and coast,
Meet solid bodies and glissade right through,
Or let a person circulate through you.
How to locate in blackness, with a gasp,
Terra the Fair, an orbicle of jasp.
How to keep sane in spiral types of space.
Precautions to be taken in the case
of freak reincarnation: what to do
On suddenly discovering that you
Are now a young and vulnerable toad
Plump in the middle of a busy road,
Or a bear cub beneath a burning pine,
Or a book mite in a revived divine."

- Pale Fire

Believing: When I dont, You do.

So I have a problem....lol, I mean...I'm perfect, a damn horse is a damn horse of course of course...but I like a certain thing more than most people, but I love something else more. Now....with that said, in business, which has examples for everything in life (the bible, art, and acid are the only other products to have said effects as well), says...with everything there is a trade off. What if, in moments of weakness, we go into cake and eat it too phase? I realized that, isn't this....exactly what inner strength really is? It is a counter balance, any level of weakness can be balanced if you find the right thing......that thing must respond in accordance to you, as you do to it though. Anyway....this verse sums that up...from one of my favorite Bible chapters:


"The only thing that counts is faith expressing itself through love."

- Galatians 5:6

"I'm Listening"

Here's the first place I will eat on the first day of the rest of my life, The Infamous 'Lowell's' :


Lowell's !!!

....but this right here? THIS RIGHT HERE?!?!?!....brb..kitchen run.)

Self Esteem Paper 10/08

So, as you know I start off every academic paper with some mindblowing quote right? lol Iight, so I had to write a paper about self-esteem but I wanted to put a personal twist on the quote rather than focus on self-esteem itself. So, from nature's favorite poet:



"Finish every day and be done with it. You have done what you could. Some blunders and absurdities no doubt have crept in; forget them as soon as you can. Tomorrow is a new day; begin it well and serenely and with too high a spirit to be cumbered with your old nonsense. This day is all that is good and fair. It is too dear, with its hopes and invitations, to waste a moment on yesterdays."

-Ralph Waldo Emerson (from one of his Memoirs)

Pale Fire.....yeah yeah.

I'm back on my Pale Fire shit lol. It's in my top three books all time, and recently I found it in paperback...so...deal with me. First excerpt...*ahem*

"Bypass chair legs and stray beneath the bed,
There was a sudden sunburst in my head.

And then black night. That blackness was sublime.
I felt distributed through space and time:
One foot upon a mountaintop, one hand
Under the pebbles of a panting strand,
One ear in Italy, One eye in Spain,
In caves, my blood, and in the stars, my brain.
There were dull throbs in my Triassic; green
Optical spots in Upper Pleistocene
An icy shiver down my Age of Stone
And all tomorrows in my funny bone."



Well damn.

Destiny Arresting Me
