A line A line of time to kiss the whispers A walk through lines bumper to bumper a missed friendship gone speeding through to catch a purpose no stopping now lights on lights noisy vibrations chitter chatter memories forgotten bad stories collide among delays stopped for tea where is my way daylight still peeking polite transport louder vibrations more of the same. An original poem by Chris Diphoorn Dances
 You am IOctober 1st 2008 05:21
You I Am I am nothing like you And who are you to judge? I never invited you to read this So now you are here In my face In my words In my space I wanted things to be different between us And they are- Very I bash the very keys that make this Tears running down my face I have passion I have loved I am crashing You follow too close You drive too slowly Youre not paying attention To the scenery I paint I draw I photograph My world doesnt belong to you We are not a collective I hope youre angry about it Im too tired to fight You push You pant You blow I dont care if you dont get it If you totally miss my point If you dont believe me Or if you want me to believe in you Your god Your possessions Your contradictions I am naked in here I make words to keep sane I do it to myself I reflect my point of view You laugh and say forget this You didnt see a thing You want to run but realise You understand your own reflection I am closer than you think I am looking backing at you I know what youre making of it I have been there too For sometimes You are me And I am you Dances
Next Door NeighbourSeptember 27th 2008 01:02
Next Door Neighbour Colour for his monochrome existence Flowers sprout against nature in his yard Whiskey still bubbles in the back shed Making would be friends drunk Bananas on rye toast for breakfast Its supposed to sound healthy to me Theres nothing to learn or listen here When one knows everything Purveyor of things rusted and forgotten The wife left yelling years ago But shes still in there somewhere Buried in the overgrown weeds A boat rots along side the house Personifying calmer days at sea When he had a happy home To bring fish home to "hi honeeeee" Im happy theres a fence between us Dividing our lives into two If it ever fell down Id leave before... I became him too Dances
Integrity gets divorced (LINK)July 5th 2008 00:37
"Yeah it's been awhile did you miss me?"
I have dealt with a number of people lately who seriously lack integrity. I've had people look me in the eye and give me their word. You can guess what happened next. Names? Yeah I've got a few, and I'd just love to list them publicly. Maybe build a list of all the people who lack integrity. Yeah I thought it'd be huge too ;o

I see dumb people - part one (LINK)May 1st 2008 14:02
Yeah it's been awhile since I posted anything though I've been busy ok.
Yeah its a catch phrase that we all can flick about the place but that's not the point. I am lying awake wondering - more about the situation I find myself in. About dumb people. I am thinking its not awfully smart pointing out the stupidness of others. How dumb people really are. Even people reading this. Even after a cupful of my cruel cynicism and all the 'clever' people who have go this far, realising its a clever linguistic trap and have bailed for the next post. Maybe but maybe not
Are UFO's real? (LINK)February 21st 2008 06:59
I watched a documentary on TV last week (ABC) on the 1969 moon landing that was absolutely riveting and fascinating. I will background this by saying I personally feel that this was the greatest triumph in the history of mankind to date. So I was flabbergasted, shocked, and amazed to recently discover that my own brother firmly believes that the moon landing/s were faked. I guess idiots including my own flesh and blood are entitled to an opinion

Thanks for your wonderful reply. You make many assumptions about someone you know nothing about.
I am not trying to make you look bad. The question I asked came from one of my students, not myself.
Maybe I needed to expand their question or rather define it to tell us what that stanza means to you? It makes absolutely no sense to the person who asked the question. Maybe you have no intention to help other people understand what you write, because you are more intelligent than them? To answer this question is to allow this student to experience your truth.
"And in regard to Truth, if, to be sure, through the attainment of a truth we are led to perceive a harmony where none was apparent before, we experience at once the true poetical effect" - Edgar Allan Poe.
I liked your Brecht quote, for if one replaces the word mistake with the word problem, (interchangeable in your thinking) an intelligent person (according to the quote) would then seek a solution. Maybe we could do that Brandon?
This blog doesn't have to be the sum of our quarrel nor something we both truly regret. I am entitled to write in here and make commentary as you are to respond. I am truly here, and not lurking as you suggest. Lurking does sound fun though.
There is an opportunity for us both to learn something Brandon. There is an opportunity to write respectfully to one another. There is an opportunity for many great things.
All you need to do is make a choice.
Respectfully yours
Dances
