D I - The First Chapter.

March 24th 2009 08:16
Ok, after much deliberation i have decided to post the first chapter of my novel. I have sent the full manuscript off to a few publishers with no word back as yet. What better way is there of getting some feedback than having it read by other writers. I hope you like it and i hope to hear some comments from avid readers. Thankyou. Enjoy.



Chapter 1

It was the day to end all days, it would have been the perfect one to finish on. The sun was high in the sky with a light haze of cloud filtering its warm rays. The birds were singing, the grass was green and not a single sound other than from nature itself could be heard… Except for the quiet tittering from a young couple strolling through the meadow on top of a hill... Deimos was a handsome fellow, short brown hair neatly parted to one side, thin-rimmed glasses, but unusually pale skin. He was dressed quite comfortably, in a white linen shirt and black leather shoes, and you could tell his brown trousers were new from the rubbing sound they made as he walked. He looked quite relaxed and seemed very happy. And why wouldn’t he be? In one hand he held a small, wicker picnic basket, and with the other he was holding hands with what was a most beautiful woman, with flowing blonde hair and the deepest, mesmerising blue eyes you have ever seen. The beautiful woman was obviously in love with him as her eyes were transfixed on his and her adoring smile only added to the illumination of the fresh meadow. Deimos was basking in the glow of his wife Dwyns’ pregnancy and she too had an aura of tranquillity too clear not to miss. They had just completed a romantic picnic in the middle of the meadow and were slowly making their way back to the car, carving their way through the sea of dandelions in full bloom and taking in the beauty and serenity of their surroundings.
‘It doesn’t get any better than this,’ she said while sighing contently.
‘I love this place. It’s only a few miles from home, but it seems like we’re on another planet. She continued to gaze into his bespectacled eyes as they walked, trusting his guidance, while caressing the back of his cupped hand with her thumb.
‘I know,’ Deimos lovingly replied. ‘If I were to die today I would die my happiest.’ He glanced forward before quickly re-engaging his stare. His happiness was as pure as his love of life.
Trapped in his lady’s engaging eyes, he clumsily tripped up on an exposed tree root, grinning wryly as he regained his composure. Dwyn tried unconvincingly to hide her amusement.
‘Sure but I would only die my happiest if we went together, but let us not talk about that now ‘cos we’ve got the next 50 years at least till we need to worry about that,’ she exclaimed with a broad smile.
The pregnant woman quickly changed the subject, feeling they were getting a little morbid.
‘It’s nice to get out and enjoy the fresh air. I feel as though my soul is being cleansed every time I come up here.’
‘Indeed, and you know wherever I am, as long as I’m with you, I am happy,’ he gloated.
‘Being up here, or working in the garden, knee deep in mud, it matters not.’ He paused while still lost in her magical gaze. ‘You cleanse my soul.’
They stopped and gazed into each other’s eyes still conversing but without words, before passionately kissing, if not engulfing each other to the point that they were panting like wolves as their lips parted.
’Soon we’ll be taking little junior with us on these outings,’ he said while fondly rubbing her protruding stomach.
Her floral knee-high dress began to gently rustle in the breeze as she placed her hand upon his, both sensing the heartbeat of their unborn who was to complete their family in only a month’s time.
‘Or juniorette’ she added with a smile, before they both continued along their track, hand in hand; in love.

On reaching the end of the meadow, they followed a path cut through the forest that surrounded the meadow, and would lead them to their car, parked at the end of the dirt track. With the trees beginning to sway from the cool, moderate breeze, the couple slowly made their way along laughing and indulging in the perfect atmosphere, where they felt, for that time, that they were the only ones on the planet.

Inexplicably, a huge gust of wind, blown from perhaps the mouth of god himself, enveloped the two, pushing the man forward, causing him to drop the basket and trip face first into the ground while also throwing the woman off her feet, thrusting her forward and forcing her to throw out her lithe hands to try and protect her delicate stomach.
The wind died down as quickly as it occurred leaving the poor woman lying on the ground, clutching her belly and moaning as Deimos screamed in pain, raising his head to reveal a bloodied face.
His glasses had shattered as his face impacted upon another exposed root, forcing shards of glass into and around his eyes, cutting deep into his perfect skin.
‘Aaah. My eyes! My eyes!’ he screamed.
Blood streamed from his wounded eyes as he struggled to pull the glass out, his trembling hands defying him. Frustrated and in pain, he took a brief moment to try and compose himself before checking on his fallen companion.
‘Dwyn, are you ok, Dwyn!’ His voice was shaky as the small puncture wounds in his cheeks were filling his mouth up with blood, making him sound like he was gargling water as he spoke.
‘I’m ok, oh my god Deimos!’ She looked over to see Deimos' bloody face contorted in pain.
‘I can’t see my love, I have glass all in my eyes and it hurts so much but… are you sure you’re alright sweetheart?’
‘I’ve cut one of my hands but other than that I’m fine,’ she explained. ‘But we need to go to the hospital right away, you’re a mess.’ Her stomach took a slight impact and she wanted a check-up herself, but she wasn’t going to worry Deimos about that at this moment in time.
Deimos held out his hand randomly and was quickly met with Dwyns. He then clumsily helped his sweetheart up and holding each other tight, they headed back towards their car, which was parked on the side of the windy road about 200 metres from where they were.
The clouds closed in and the sky darkened while flashes of lightning startled the sky. The trees flailed with the fury of a tornado as flying dirt and leaves scrambled around the pair. It seemed that their day to end all days….was coming to an end.

‘I can’t believe this,’ Deimos cried out. ‘What have we done to deserve this, why are we being punished?’
‘I don’t know my sweet; let’s just get out of here! It’s going to rain shortly and we are still a fair way from the car.’
The pair tried to pick up the pace but the increasing wind was making it more and more difficult. Their clothes fought against them as they tried to hurry with the wind blowing fiercely against them.
‘Aaaaah, I cannot take it much more, the wind is pushing the glass further into my face.’ Blood sprayed from his mouth with every word. His face was covered in blood and his white shirt was heavily stained from his injuries.
‘You’ll be ok honey we’re…’She abruptly released her grip, losing her husband in the process. Dwyn didn’t say another word, alarming Deimos greatly. He stopped and fumbled around trying to find her. His vision was non-existent and the wind made it impossible to listen for her movements.
‘Honey, are you okay,’ Deimos yelled. ‘Honey! What’s going on?Dwyn!!’

Deimos couldn’t see that Dwyn was hunched over, grimacing in pain. Her eyes were closed and her teeth were clenched tight, her body paralysed on the spot. The intensity of the wind eased slightly, giving Deimos the opportunity to listen out for his stricken wife.
After a brief moment, her eyes opened and she let out a wild scream, loud enough to scare the remaining birds from the surrounding trees.
‘Dwyn what’s wrong?’ Deimos yelled in a panic as he strained to see what was wrong, but to no avail. Every effort to open his eyes led to a searing pain shooting right through to the back of his skull.
‘The baby…’ Dwyn managed to say in a quivering yet scratchy voice. ‘Oh no, not now, not here!’ Terrified, Deimos held out his hand randomly in the hope of contact with his beloved.
‘We must go quickly, give me your hand.’ Dwyn lunged for his hand but in mid stride was cut short by an unforgiving, savage pain wracking her inner regions.’
‘Uhhh, Aaaah, Noooooo…’ Dwyn screamed out incoherently as her veins began to invert; as if something inside her was sucking her blood so hard that it was leaving indentations in her porcelain skin, and her eyes, her beautiful blue eyes began to fill up with swirling red blood. All she could manage was gurgling noises, as she stood hunched over her expectant belly. Deimos could barely hear her through the rush of the wind and as the rain suddenly began, he stumbled around frantically trying to find his beloved who was so close to him and wrenched in agony, but still he could not find her. Dwyn was having the life sucked out of her, she was emaciating on the spot, her bones were becoming visible as all her body fat and muscle disappeared; and her blood red eyes were creeping back into her skull. The rain pelted down as Deimos, with arms outstretched, fumbled around for his wife. He was only a couple of feet away from her and didn’t even know it.
‘Dwyn, are you there, are you ok?’ His voice was filled with fear and he stopped and stood completely still as his ears strained for a sign. He started to hear a faint sound of something tearing, not paper, but more like a Hessian bag, and it got louder and louder as it overtook the rain. He slowly moved toward the sound with great hesitation.
‘Dwyn,’ he cried out, with no response.
Dwyns' drained body stood bolted upright and she let out an ear-piercing scream. Deimos jumped back and fell onto the muddy ground in fright, while not being able to see what was becoming of his beautiful wife. Blood began to flow freely down Dwyns’ thinned, colourless thighs before out from under her sagging dress, swinging on its umbilical cord like a zombie Tarzan, came a leathery, deformed creature, covered in blood and mucous, that was to be… her firstborn. Aaaaaaaahaahaaaa

Dwyn awoke in a pool of sweat; she was still dazed and could barely focus on the group of people surrounding her. The constant beeping of machinery and the muttering of many voices gradually alerted her to her current situation.
‘Are you ok love?’ The voice was smooth and comforting.
Her eyesight converged on the face of a young lady, with large brown, compassionate eyes, underlined with a facemask and a nurse’s hat. She was gently wiping the sweat off Dwyns’ forehead with a caring smile. Dwyn was scared and confused and offered no response, so the nurse slowly repeated herself.
‘Are you alright love, you passed out.’ The girls smiling face began to comfort Dwyn in her time of need.
‘Forceps!’ She went to sit upright to face the source of the deep voice but found she was unable to move. Her body was numb and she found she had no strength to try to overcome it.
She looked back up at her attendant and attempted to speak.
‘What happened!’? Her voice was raspy and strained as she took great effort to speak.
‘We needed to perform a pudendal block; you were in a great deal of pain from the pressure of the baby. Unfortunately, the anaesthetic was injected into a vein and caused you to faint. It doesn’t happen too often but it’s not serious, you’ll be ok.’ That reassurance wasn’t enough for Dwyn and she started to panic.
‘Where’s Deimos?’ She asked breathlessly.
‘Your husband is in the waiting room. We needed him to leave for the time being. You will see him soon.’
Dwyn suddenly grunted and groaned, she tried to move but found she was still paralysed. Her panic grew, she was really scared, and she needed her husband by her side. She began to groan uncontrollably again, until the sound of the heart monitor was overrun by the cries of a newborn baby. Dwyn smiled with reprieve. Everything sounded normal to her and with a broad yet relieved smile on her face she strained to reach over to the nurse and hold her hand. The nurse noticed the slight gesture and grabbed her patients’ lethargic hand.
‘Congratulations. It looks like you have a healthy baby boy on your hands!’ The cries of the baby were competing with the words of the nurse. She looked over as the doctor cut the umbilical cord and passed the baby over to a male nurse for cleaning and monitoring.
‘Don’t I get to hold my baby now?’ Dwyn asked with a little excitement.
‘When you regain your movement, now we’ll just clean him up for you,’ the nurse replied.
Dwyn became anxious as she waited for the chance to lay eyes on her newborn child.
‘How do you feel, are you ok now?’ The nurse looked over to check the heart monitor as the obstetrician came over to congratulate her; the other attendants left the theatre leaving only the male nurse to tend to the newborn.
‘Well done Dwyn, Deimos will be proud as punch to have a son.'
Dwyn smiled at the doctor. But as she was looking at him she noticed his face becoming serious and he quickly turned to check the monitor.
‘Nurse, how are her stats?’
‘Everything is fine doctor.’ She replied calmly.
‘Then how do you explain this?’ The doctor pointed at a large pulsing vein in Dwyns neck.
Only going by the doctors worried tone, she began to panic again.
‘What, what is it?’

The doctor ran around the other side of the operating table. He checked another machine before leaning over her with his stethoscope, indicating that he didn’t trust the reading of the machine. After checking her heartbeat he seemed content, but continued to survey her neck. He followed the vein down her neck and slightly peeled back the sheet covering her to see how far it went.
‘Where’s my baby. …And where’s Deimos?’ Dwyn was becoming quite agitated; she had this feeling inside her that something was awry and that they weren’t telling her.
‘Just need check you out first Dwyn, you’ll see them both shortly.’ But the nurse didn’t allay her fears this time.
‘I WANT TO SEE THEM NOW!’ She screamed uncontrollably with tears beginning to roll down the sides of her flushed cheeks. The nurse that was bathing the baby, looked over in shock, as he had never experienced someone that distressed before.
At the same time the alarmed doctor pulled back the sheet to reveal her upper body to find a network of thick, red veins raised and pumping, covering her upper torso. The attending nurse screamed and looked at Dwyn in horror. One of the veins in her chest suddenly burst, covering the unsuspecting doctor in her thick red blood. He reeled back in shock before running over to the intercom and calling for assistance, his voice shaken and hysterical. Her paralysed body shook wildly as more and more veins burst open, showering the room in her blood in all directions. Dwyn screamed as she could only watch as her body violently spouted her life juice all over the delivery room. The male nurse wrapped the baby in a towel and made a quick exit from the theatre, passing many staff members rushing to help the suffering woman. The doctor and nurse attempted to quell the flow by frantically throwing towels from a nearby trolley over her, but the pressure was too great. Dwyn’s eyes closed as her body emptied of its life force. The other doctors and nurses burst through the door of the blood soaked theatre only to be confronted with a corpse lying on the operating table with what looked like small gunshot wounds covering it. The sound of fresh blood dripping on the floors married with the constant high pitch of the heart monitor… on flat line.

The Heat is On!

February 20th 2009 07:00
Here we are, well into the new year and wondering where we are headed! The Global Financial Crisis has caught many off guard and destroyed many peoples hopes for a blessed 2009. The climate it going out-the-windy-man with floodsup one end of Australia and fire down the other. And what fires! The devastation caused by the Black Saturday fires has been unbelievable and the amount of people who have been affected by them is far-reaching. The most amazing outcome of thes fires has been the incredible outpouring of support, not just from the people of Victoria but from around the globe.
Just seeing the destruction of whole towns and the innocent faces of victims in the media leaves me feeling that it could have been anyone. Thes men, women and children, were going about their daily lives when all of a sudden a firestorm of unrelenting fury swept through them, giving them little chance of survival. And most who did survive, lost everything. There is current debate going on whether it was the right decision to allow these people to stay and fight for their homes and whether councils and government regulations could have contributed to the loss of over 200 lives and nearly 2000 homes. It is all well and good to try and blame people for what might have been but the fact is the horse has bolted and now there is nothing but grief for the people, including whole families, that have been wiped off the face of the earth.

Could it have been avoided? Probably not. Nature can be cruel and with the current drought and record high temperatures coupled with gale force winds, it is simply a cocktail for disaster. Unfortunately, it is not just nature that can take all the blame. It seems that there are a few nutjobs out there that get their kicks from lighting fires. I cannot fathom what brings an individual to do something so reckless and, considering the conditions on the day, so downright dangerous and destructive. I hope those responsible are now so wracked with guilt that their conscience is slowly killing them, real slowly. Or perhaps they just want to end it all, in which case, being the pacifist i am, i can recommend they pour lighter fluid on themselves and light a match. Too kind i know, but, considering the odds of them doing it again, i'd consider any death of an arsonist a triumph. They have caught one guy( who now is a temporary Australian) and if they don't catch anyone else then he will be held accountable for the whole thing, even if in the eyes of the law he was responsible for 10-20 deaths. In the eyes of the people who have survived and those grieving families, this piece of shit will pay dearly for his crime and hopefully this will deter any future idiots from doing the same thing, but i doubt it. Only a few days ago someone tried to set Mt. Dandenong alight, even after no doubt seeing all the carnage since Black Saturday.
My heart and sincerest condolences go out to those affected, it will be a long hard slog to rebuild and it is something i'm sure you will never forget. I also want to express my pride in the CFA and other services that have gone beyond the call and did their very best to save people and property. The fires aren't over yet, but when they are, i hope those people are given the respect and support they truly deserve. Thankyou.

Here we are, only 3 days to Christmas and many people are relaxing, enjoying their holidays. WHAT? I'm obviously just kidding. Christmas is the most hectic time of year. If you haven't done your present shopping yet then you will soon know the nature of hell, and if you have you still need to buy groceries, or shop for those little things you have forgotten for your Christmas lunch.And in the meantime there are other get togethers going on.
You think you got smashed at the work Christmas party? Well, don't forget the countless other BBQ's happening as the weather warms up and people are using Christmas as a good reason to get together with friends and drink to the yuletide spirit. Alcohol plays a big part at Christmas as it is a celebration of the birth of Christ (if your into that sort of thing) and being an aussie, requires that like any other celebration, copious amounts of booze needs to be necked in the spirit of the traditional values of Xmas. In a matter of fact, i'm drunk now, and i plan to be until New Years. How's that for getting into the spirit!!
I love this time of year, not just for not having to work, not just for the presents i will receive or the joy that it instils in everyones heart. No, i like Christmas because on the day, i can engorge myself with more food than a 3rd world country has ever seen, sit on the couch afterwards with my fly undone, grunting and groaning about what a pig i am.... and still retain my dignity. Ho Ho Ho.


The feeling i get when i roll out the door, rotund, inebriated, my arms full of presents and a gladness in my heart that i don't have to see Auntie Ethel for another 12 months makes it all worth waiting for. Just bring on the New Year Eve celebrations to complete my gluttonous over-indulgences. Of course, like any normal human being over 16, it is an alcohol fuelled night of pure hedonism, crazy beyond boiling point and aimed to say goodbye to the old and in with the new....liver. You gotta love it!!
So comes the New Year. 2009, and 10 kilo's heavier, 20 cans over the limit and 30,000,000 brain cells less. With that combination i intend to make the new year positive with weight loss goals and personal growth promises to myself. But you know what.... these days the years fly by so quickly, i find myself doing the same thing every year. At the beginning of a new year i try to be an optimist, but by the end i just end up pissed!!

In any case and with a smiling face
i wish a Merry Christmas to all!!
And for the New Year, carry on the Xmas cheer
be safe, and have a ball.

It's been 2 months since my last post, did you miss me? Many things can happen within that time frame and for me, many things did! But firstly, many questions arise from my return. The main one is, do you care? Are you interested in my musings and lamentations on life, and what has happened to me personally? Is this an important outlet for a budding writer or should i just be putting all my energy into my next novel? I don't want to seem cynical, but am i wasting my time? As i am not sure of any of the answers of those questions, i will continue to post periodically until i get some sort of idea, one way or the other. Don't get me wrong, i enjoy writing to all degrees, but i am not quite sure if i should put my creativity into more fruitful endeavours. I have found myself a new job, one which requires much more of my time, and that is one reason why i am not sure about this. I fully enjoy the new job, but it is a job, not a career, and it has nothing to do with writing in any way, shape or form. I would like nothing more that to be able to afford to stay at home and fully utilise all the creative thoughts that swirl in my discontented mind. I'm not getting any younger and i want to fully delve into my psyche before it succumbs to Alzheimers or Dementia.

NZ Biker Chicks

Now New Zealand definitely have the right idea! Why can't we have a Boobs on Bikes parade here in Melbourne? If the one in our sister country can bring its people together with one common goal, then that sounds like a pretty positive outcome to me. Even if that common goal is to look at topless women, who am i to judge

Bring back the Fat!!

August 20th 2008 08:16
Now, that gets the juices flowing!

Is it just me or have McDonalds completely changed the recipes for their burgers? I hadn't had Maccas for a while and last night for dinner i had a craving for a Big Mac, imagining the taste of their special sauce tantalizing my tastebuds. I know that they are now cooking all their burgers fresh to order but i had no idea that a fresh burger would taste so different to the usual tepid one

Truly Olympic.

August 18th 2008 09:13
Ooh, i've got this rash all over my body... i thinks it's called Olympic Fever!! I didn't think i would be that into the Olympics this time around but i have found myself watching it at every chance i get. Fortunately the other free to air channels aren't offering up much competition, so it makes it easier to choose the Beijing Olympics. Mind you i have quite a few dvd's i have yet to watch, but i end up watching Beach Volleyball, Rowing or Swimming. I haven't seen a Soccer match in years but i still found myself watching a couple, late into the night. What is it about the Olympic Games that attracts people to watch sports that they wouldn't give the time of day to otherwise?
Handball, Synchronised Swimming and Diving are a few that come to mind that don't receive much tv time in between Olympics and i don't mind a game or two of ping pong, but i never see it on the box! It must be the feeling of pride that i get when i see one of my fellow Australians up on the podium, receiving their medals. It doesn't have to be Gold either! I am getting a little bit tired of the media hanging crap on athletes who get a Silver or Bronze. It has got to the point where the athletes are berating themselves for not getting a Gold medal. What ever happened to good sportsmanship? Surely coming second or third in a global event is still an incredible achievement. Let's be proud at what they have achieved, even if they don't get anything.
Australia isn't as competitive as many other nations. We don't feel the need to condone drug use and pull our children out of kindergarten to groom them to become the next Olympic champion. I'm sure some countries are working on cloning cells of past champions or even genetically engineering their own super-athlete. Aussies ought to be proud of their natural athletic ability and support those who go against others who are not so 'natural', but at the moment remain undetectable

Mac & Hayes...The End of Days.

August 11th 2008 12:42
The reporting of dead celebrities is always a sad affair. Whether it be from morbid curiosity or being a genuine fan, we think about celebrities as being immortal. The life of the rich and famous seems blessed, something that we would all like to aspire to, but unfortunately, it happens to few, and believe it or not, they are just like you and me. This weekend we lost 2 more who had provided millions with laughter and song, and while i was not fanatatical about either one, i did enjoy their entertainment.
Bernie Mac was not a huge star in Australia, but many people knew of him. His most famous work here was probably starring in the Oceans 11 trilogy, playing Bosley in Charlies Angels: Full Throttle and being the crazy car salesman in Transformers. If you're a night dweller you may have seen The Bernie Mac show, which won him heaps of awards in the States. I remember him making me laugh when i first saw him in House Party 3. Playing Uncle Vester, his style of comedy was unique, with his big round eyes creating as much laughter as his dialogue. His star was on the rise, allowing him to consider leaving his stand up comedy and concentrate on making movies. He was only 50 when he died and he had a lot of laughter still to give, he will be missed!
Isaac Hayes was a pioneer of soul music in the 70's and was an Academy Award and Grammy winner. It is said he was rapping before Flavour Flav was wearing nappies and his deep, sexy voice gave The Theme from Shaft the gravitas it needed to take home an Oscar. While a cultural icon in America (he was inducted into the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame in 2002) his popularity soared in Australia with his voicing of 'Chef' on South Park. Chef was a cool dude, and his swinging laid back lifestyle was the envy of many young men. I can remember asking many if they'd 'seen my balls, they're big and salty n' round'. From the 1970's he took part in many Tv shows and movies, always adding something cool to every character he played, be it The Duke from one of my favourite movies, Escape from New York, to Asneeze in Robin Hood: Men in Tights. He too will be missed, 65 is still too young, although having 12 kids probably didn't help

Road to Ruin

August 7th 2008 22:00
Surprise! Surprise! Since the first week of tolling the number of people using Eastlink has halved! Surely the State Government is aware that people are under a great deal of financial pressure at the moment, with the price of petrol forcing many people to use Public Transport instead. It naturally had a surge in use for it's first toll-free month, but that was surely just a lot of curious people who wanted to see the results from all the roadworks that had inconvenienced them over the past 3 years.
I must admit, having been one of those curious monkeys, the tunnel under the Mullum Mullum creek is truly a great feat of modern engineering. But are people going to fork out their hard earned dollars to go through it every day? I also had the joy of cruising down towards Frankston, perplexed at the many strange pieces of 'art' adorning bridges and also standing lonely on the side of the freeway. What is up with the mini hotel in the middle of nowhere? And those tall green, leaning 'things'! What the hell are they, and how much did they pay the 'artist' to create them? All in all it wasn't a really picturesque drive. And in terms of saving time, sure, it serves it's purpose, but only by creating bottlenecks where, before it was open, didn't exist. Is the idea to create the illusion that you're going somewhere quicker when really, once you're off it, you find yourself backed up in traffic anyway?
Maybe i'm cynical, maybe it will benefit many, but will it be taken up by those who can't afford the extra dollars to travel on it? I'm not sure if it was widely known, judging by the number of people who use it now, but you could purchase Breeze tags and can have up to $60 of your tag value put back onto it after 120 days. Now they have a different deal which may still be of interest to some. I think it's a $20 tag for free

All Tied Up

August 6th 2008 21:39
Ok, so a woman is in court at the moment charged with manslaughter, after her husband died during a bondage session. It must be a tricky predicament for the jury when you have to decide the fate of someone who had no intention of harming their partner, but by all intensive purposes, caused his death by her own actions. Sure, he allegedly wanted her to do it and apparently they had done it a thousand times. So where do you draw the line? Did she really fail in her 'duty of care' when the deceased boasted to her that he could get out of any way she tied him up. What she thought she was up to was something that turned him on, so could she be jailed for doing something to him out of love for him?
It is obviously very hard to police actions that go on behind closed doors, and it's a good thing too! And if you are aware, there is some pretty extreme stuff going on in many homes around the world. Many play it safe, but with anything out of the ordinary there are usually risks involved. I have certainly seen some stuff online that you just couldn't imagine people would enjoy, but they do! Some women apparently like being tied up, naked, in an awkward position, hoisted up and used as a ceiling fan! Some guys enjoy having their genitals squashed by a vixen in high heels. But just to clarify things, i am not one of them.
We have all done some crazy stuff in our times, but bondage is not something that floats my boat. I can't understand why people are so willing to give themselves to another human being and allow themselves to become so vulnerable to that persons wants.Trust is obviously a very big issue when it comes to such an act, but when limitations are crossed, who is responsible

Bryn, as long as you are in control of the anaesthetic, you can make it last as long as you like. Soon as they start moaning, give them some more... or wait till the screaming gets too much for you.... then give them some more. Of course eventually infection will end it if not treated...but that would take time. For a little extra effect, have some insects or rodents, eat at the wounds, all while the victim watches. Sweet Dreams.

Hey Chris, Heres a little poem i threw together in a few minutes:

Is it the fate of all mankind
To leave this world behind
Find a land beyond the stars
Unlike Jupiter, Uranus or Mars
Could there be another Earth
A land full of value, love and mirth
Or do we need to look so far
Can we just change the way we are?


I hope i moved you

Ok, i'm a balanced individual but here goes:

Injected with aenesthetic, naked body coated in acid in front of mirror, watching your flesh burn, but can't feel it, until aenesthetic slowly wears off!!

Has no one ever seen The Minority Report? The twists and turns in this futuristic thriller are amazing and it is one of my most favourite films. Check it out, you will be pleasantly surprised!!!

Like i said, there is a lot of grey areas, especially when peoples kinks go outside the norm.It would probably be on a case by case basis. The wife would be devastated, she wanted to give him what he wanted, and she ended up killing him, how awful!

Thanks for your comment.

Thanks JP
I am honored you found it worthy to pass on this post to friends. If i can just put a second thought into someones head before they do something potentially dangerous, then i have been successful.
Regards to you and your kinky friends. LOL

Thanks guys,
I always appreciate positive feedback. It's just a shame that what i had written didn't eventuate in my life. Well, not yet anyway!

Take care.

Hey Johnny,
I hadn't heard why Katie wasn't in this one, and it wouldn't surprise me that Tom had something to do with it. Maybe it's because the producers of Dark Knight wouldn't give the scientologists a percentage of its profits.

Hey Stephen,
I share your admiration for Richard. He seems to enjoy his money like a little kid, but he also has a real interest in making a difference to mankind. Not many richies are like him. In fact i see him as a one of a kind!
