So ya
Thought ya
Might like to go to the show.
To feel the warm thrill of confusion
That space cadet glow.
Tell me is something eluding you, sunshine?
Is this not what you expected to see?
If you wanna find out what's behind these cold eyes
You'll just have to claw your way through this disguise.
Iggy Pop - The Passenger
I am the passenger and I ride and I ride
I ride through the city's backsides
I see the stars come out of the sky
Yeah, the bright and hollow sky
You know it looks so good tonight
I am the passenger
I stay under glass
I look through my window so bright
I see the stars come out tonight
I see the bright and hollow sky
Over the city's ripped backsides
And everything looks good tonight
Singing la la la la la.. lala la la, la la la la.. lala la la
etc
Get into the car
We'll be the passenger
We'll ride through the city tonight
We'll see the city's ripped backsides
We'll see the bright and hollow sky
We'll see the stars that shine so bright
Stars made for us tonight
Oh, the passenger
How, how he rides
Oh, the passenger
He rides and he rides
He looks through his window
What does he see?
He sees the sign and hollow sky
He sees the stars come out tonight
He sees the city's ripped backsides
He sees the winding ocean drive
And everything was made for you and me
All of it was made for you and me
'Cause it just belongs to you and me
So let's take a ride and see what's mine
Singing la la la la.. lala la la [x3]
Oh the passenger
He rides and he rides
He sees things from under glass
He looks through his window side
He sees the things that he knows are his
He sees the bright and hollow sky
He sees the city sleep at night
He sees the stars are out tonight
And all of it is yours and mine
And all of it is yours and mine
So let's ride and ride and ride and ride
Oh, oh, Singing la la la la lalalala
We got an iron pot glowing hot, into which we tossed coins and as they melted we poured them into rune shaped molds.

Three more days of work.. three shifts , then I can just flip that switch in my brain to Pennsic mode. My camping gear has been packed and re packed, my armor and spears are ready, coolers, Muskoka Chair , beer will be handled at the Duty Fr...

Re: A smaller Pennsic?
(in The Vulgar Unicorn)
But if you put it into perspective , I've done 2 weeks at Pennsic with about the same budget that a weekend at any Hotel or B&B. Of course my problem is that I am an "Armor Whore" so I will likely buy something shiny and new even though I hardl...

about me
I spend allot of time hitting people with sticks , and even more time getting hit by people with sticks. I also spend allot of time writing, painting and drawing. I beleive in honour and brotherhood through deeds , not by the flapping of mouths. You want my respect , don't tell me , show me. I got lots of solid brothers and sisters that have been with me through the thick and thin.
I get tired of people who whine about their situation real quick, you don't like your life , then change it. I beleive in a handshake , and that a persons measure can be taken by looking them in the eyes. I think everybody has the right to happiness , no matter how they choose to live their lives . I beleive in a good tall frosty pint , and a solid meal . I beleive in Karma , and that you shall receive what you put into this world, good or bad , you will get paid one way or the other.
Life is just a scene in a bigger show , far beyond what we comprehend. We strive to make sense of it when rough times come along . We try to find comfort in some semblance of faith, an existence after this one , an afterlife. How do you say goodbye to a friend , to a gentle giant that has never hurt a soul, who has for many years put up with our shortcomings with a lick on the face and a wagging tail. Who has tolerated the kids climbing on her , the sharing of her couch with all of the people...

I remember the ocean in Spain
how my pasty northern skin changed color
as I spent days in the water like a fish
to escape the heat of the afternoons
the red dust in the baking sun
Old ladies patting my head for luck
my white hair uncommon with the locals
except on some old saint in a peeling image
on a church wall upon a hill
I didn't understand it then
it was an inconvenience for my 5 year old mind
I was young , the world was kind to me
I still remember people napping a...

When an old soul passes to the other side
a friend is lost to the veil
we mourn their passing
yet find someone that comes along
at just the right time
to fill the empty place in our hearts
and start anew
You are all teeth and paws
wagging tail and soft fur
thank you for coming along
taking the pain away
little Leia
I think we will be good friends
for many years to come

The virgin snow
fell in large flakes
to cover up the remains
of the red lifeblood
of some kid
who talked shit
to an off duty soldier
with a thousand mile stare
I had to step in
he didn't wanna fight me
anymore than I wanted to fight him
so we shook hands
and went our separate ways
the virgin snow
fell in large flakes
and a peaceful silence
blanketed the world
as folks went home
and I was left alone
to lock the doors
to wipe off the bar
and think to myself
what t...

Perfect Day
Just a perfect day,
Drink Sangria in the park,
And then later, when it gets dark,
We go home.
Just a perfect day,
Feed animals in the zoo
Then later, a movie, too,
And then home.
Oh it's such a perfect day,
I'm glad I spent it with you.
Oh such a perfect day,
You just keep me hanging on,
You just keep me hanging on.
Just a perfect day,
Problems all left alone,
Weekenders on our own.
It's such fun.
Just a perfect day,
You made me forget myself.
I thought I was someone else,
Someone good.
Oh it's such a perfect day,
I'm glad I spent it with you.
Oh such a perfect day,
You just keep me hanging on,
You just keep me hanging on.
You're going to reap just what you sow,
You're going to reap just what you sow,
You're going to reap just what you sow,
You're going to reap just what you sow...

Bjarn,
You have a very special ability to touch people's hearts with your words. You are the true warrior poet. You feel deeply and have a special love for life. But you don't take people's bull shit either! :)
I like you very, very much. I hope to see you around for a very long time. :)
