Elijah was walking slowly, hand in hand with Georgie, strolling leisurely down the street in the direction of her house. Georgie had rocked Graham's world six weeks ago and he truly believed she was his first love. She seemed to love him …
Oscar practically whispered the phrase that knocked Graham off balance for a long time. "I... saw Elijah umm... sort of... smothering Georgie in the changing room cubicle..." Graham had been dating Georgie for six weeks - SIX weeks - and …
Graham clenched his hands as he listened to his "friend" Elijah's rants. The incessant tide of bullshit about girls, Ke$ha and the latest scandal with "that slut Georgie" was an unwelcome soundtrack to his walk home. His patience, tested ev…
Finally I'm back into this treasure trove of ideas and creativity. My iPod broke and that was the end of my Opusses - thank God I'm back - it feels like taking a breath of fresh air.
Sometimes, I get five assignments and realise I have two tests to revise for by next week, or I realise I have missed yet ANOTHER violin lesson, or I haven't played the piano for a week, and I think. There is no goal in life. You just wor…
Poems, songs, verses and eulogies. Orders of service on every pew Tributes and prayers , a committal and exit. As the coffin disappears from sight and people start to leave Your heart does that little jump and, like a great broken barrie…
Time. The most precious thing in the world. Taken away. Day, night, classified only by wether it is dark or light. No break or rest. It is a lot worse than it sounds. The feeling, every morning and every evening. That you are witnessing…
Darkness is overwhelming, overtaking everything else in the space. No light gets though. A blanket of black over everything, Hade's palace barely visible in the lack of light. The endless fields of Asphodel, the bony trees shivering as …
Days of rushing brush along Too fast to be ridden The stormy sky mirroring the feeling Of everything speeding Once or twice Every few days or so Just go with the flow And stop speeding Slow down in life and look back On the happy childhoo…
Deipnophobia is a fear of dinner parties, dinner conversation and fine dining.
My brother is a chorister at my local cathedral - but we aren't religious. The idea of such a lovely and strong cathedral, with the bells ringing and people joining together to represent a cause really makes me wish that God exists.
If there was no death the world would get so crowded we could not support life. All natural recourses would deplete so fast. There would be eternal pain for those who are ill. Bugs, insects and beetles would swarm and you couldn't walk so…
Imagine instead of Facebook as we know it today the things on Facebook happen in real life. You are sitting in a park, reading or whatever, and a stranger comes up to you and says, 'Will you be my friend?' That would be pretty freaky. Or …
Out of the Hitler Time is a fantastically written, very engaging trilogy of books by Judith Kerr, famous for her children's picture books, but not very well recognised for these books. It is a form of Autobiography, but told about another p…
I think someone should write about someone building a time machine and then giving the technology to people in the past and future. Then all the different eras - from Vikings to Space Age - start using it to mess up time. Eventually all of…
A person with a new idea is a crank until the idea succeeds. -Mark Twain
Even if you're on the right track, you'll get run over of you just sit there. -Will Rogers
Once upon a time there was a boy called Jacob. He was reading a book, in which there was a boy called Jacob. That boy was reading a book and in that book was a boy, whose name was Jacob...
Racing past the villages And the great big towns Moving without a sound Through the long and dusty roads The scenes of life Whipping past the windows The black of night Engulfing all in its path The Moon Train Makes its journey
My brother has a chess set and the pieces are so elaborate you can't tell what pieces are which. But sometimes it is more fun that way. So confusion is sometimes good for you.
Sometimes you are the windshield, sometimes you are the bug - Mark Knopfler
What you see depends on what you are looking for. -Unknown
At the end of a good book it is like you won't be happy again. If I don't feel like that I haven't enjoyed it.
