Street Moths

by X.J. Kennedy

Mature enough to smoke but not to drink,

Grown boys at night before the games arcade

Wearing tattoos that wash off in the sink

Accelerate vain efforts to get laid.

Parading in formation past them, short

Skirts and tight jeans pretending not to see

This pack of starving wolves who pay them court

Turn noses up at cries of agony –

Baby, let's do it! Each suggestion falls

Dead to the gutter to be swept aside

Like some presumptuous bug that hits brick walls,

Rating a mere Get lost and death-ray eyes.

Still, they keep launching blundering campaigns,

Trying their wings once more in hopeless flight:

Blind moths against the wires of window screens.

Anything. Anything for a fix of light.

you have failed.



you do not get a second life.



you do not get a second try.



now what?

forget the chocolate....

my subjects were most gracious and devoted nonetheless, despite the fact that I am a difficult queen to control.


and woe is you if you can understand any of this.

... Brilliant man, I'll bet he never went on a sugar-free diet though. *sigh* i think i'm gonna need to find some sugar-free chocolate, or make somethin' with stevia and maple syrup... mmm, yummy!

Carpe diem! Rejoice while you are alive; enjoy the day; live life to the fullest; make the most of what you have. It is later than you think.
- Horace

"Eowyn, why do you tarry here, and do not go to the rejoicing in Cormallen beyond Cair Andros, where your brother awaits you?"

And she said: "Do you not know?"

But he answered: " Two reasons there may be, but which is true, I do not know."

And she said: "I do not wish to play at riddles. Speak plainer!"

"Then if you will have it so, lady," he said: "you do not go, because only your brother called for you, and to look on the Lord Aragorn, Elendil's heir, in his triumph woudl now bring you no joy. Or because I do not go, and you desire still to be near me. And maybe for both these reasons, and you yourself cannot choose between them. Eowyn, do you not love me, or will you not?"

"I wished to be loved by another," she answered. "But I desire no man's pity."

"That I know," he said. "You desired to have the love of the Lord Aragorn. Because he was high and puissant, and you wished to have renown and glory and to be lifted far above the mean things that crawl on the earth. And as a great captain may to a young soldier he seemed to you admirable. For so he is, a lord among men, the greates that now is. But when he gave you only understanding and pity, then you desired to have nothing, unless a brave death in battle. Look at me, Eowyn!"

And Eowyn looked at Faramir long and steadily; and Faramir said: "Do not scorn pity that is the gift of a gentle heart, Eowyn! But I do not offer you my pity. For you are a lady high and valiant and have yourself won renown that shall not be forgotten; and you are a lady beautfiul, I deem, beyond even the words of the Elven-tongue to tell. And I love you. Once I pitied your sorrow. but now, were you sorrowless, without fear or any lack, were you the blissful Queen of Gondor, still I would love you. Eowyn, do you not love me?"

Then the heart of Eowyn changed, or else at last she understood it. And suddenly her winter passed, and the sun shone on her.

"I stand in Minas Anor, the Tower of the Sun," she said; "and behold the Shadow has departed! I will be a shieldmaiden no longer, nor vie with the great Riders, nor take joy only in the songs of slying. I will be a healer, and love all things that grow and are not barren." And again she looked at Faramir. "No longer do I desire to be queen," she said.

Then Faramir laughed merrily. "That is well," he said; "for I am not a king. Yet I will wed with the White Lady of Rohan, if it be her will. And if she will, then let us cross the River and in happier days let us dwell in fair Ithilien and there make a garden. All things will grow with joy there, if the White Lady comes."

"Then must I leave my own people, man of Gondor?" she said. "And would you have your proud fold say of you: ' There goes a lord who tamed a wild shieldmaiden of the North! Was there no woman of the race of Numenor to choose?'"

"I would," said Faramir. And he took her in his arms and kissed her under the sunlit sky, and he cared not that they stood high upon the wall in the sight of many. And many indeed saw them and the light that shone about them as they came down fromm the walls and went hand in hand to the Houses of Healing.

And to the Warden of the Houses Faramir said: "Here is the Lady Eowyn of Rohan, and now she is healed."

to answer some of your questions my dear, darling honeycakes...

lol

Mary Magdelane was Jesus' wife. Yes my sugarpies, i am not joshing, joking, snogging, being rediculous or fibbing. You see, it is all very simple, Mary was Jesus' favorite disciple (duh! she was his wife!) and certain other disciples were jealous of her. especially since it was a man't world and a man's religion and God was created in man's image. So Jesus had a wife, they had a kid (kids?) and Jesus wanted Mary to continue his work after he died. Unfortunately this did not go over well with the other disciples so they told the world that Mary Magdelane was a sinner, a whore, the worst of the worst and that Jesus had taken her in and taught her the right way to live.

And how would it look if Jesus, the son of God had sex??? how ungodly is THAT? what would the world think if the supposed son of God had had sex and had kids??? no, it could not happen, the evidence had to be erased. unfortunately the bloodline of Jesus still survives today.

the Holy Grail = Mary Magdelane = the chalice which holdeth the blood of Jesus

Any questions?

and if you would care to condemn me to Hell... save your breath because there is no Hell.

with the utmost love,
