			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>my eyes search<br />
for honesty<br />
as i undress your<br />
lanky girlish quiver<br />
sprawled upon a perfect canvas<br />
revealing the contour of thin porcelain lies<br />
that you allow to crumble<br />
into shell, into tears, into ether.<br />
you rest unearthed<br />
no longer afraid of yourself -<br />
who you might become in my eyes,<br />
and deeply through locked pearls<br />
we search the diamond<br />
not to change<br />
never to destroy<br />
but to paint<br />
you<br />
as you are.</p>

That day is nearer!<br />
When the sky would be filled with<br />
One star…</p>
<p>That day is nearer!<br />
When the door for seeking forgiveness would<br />
Be closed…</p>
<p>That day is nearer!<br />
When the verses of Quran for guidance would<br />

When the sun would be ordered to come closer<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>God made the World in just six days,</p>
<p>And took one off to rest.</p>
<p>He blessed it with some solar rays,</p>
<p>To warm the first bird&#8217;s nest.</p>
<p>God chose to give the world He made</p>
<p>To man, made from the grounds;</p>
<p>With just one rule: Don&#8217;t eat that fruit</p>
<p>From one tree out of bounds.</p>
<p>The man and woman broke the rules,</p>
<p>And poisoned paradise;</p>
<p>And had to work the land with tools,</p>
<p>Which made life not as nice.</p>
<p>Through centuries, the populations</p>
<p>Would break God&#8217;s every law,</p>
<p>And then complain of tribulations;</p>
<p>Blaming God, what&#8217;s more.</p>
<p>God could have left us to our fates,</p>
<p>Cut off from His good will.</p>
<p>Instead, adopting human traits,</p>
<p>He took a bitter pill.</p>
<p>Born in the world as Jesus Christ,</p>
<p>He lived without a flaw;</p>
<p>Then died, with pain, to pay the price</p>
<p>For all past sins and more.</p>
<p>This leaves us with a choice to make;</p>
<p>But we need to respond.</p>
<p>Do we accept God&#8217;s gift, and take</p>
<p>His ticket to beyond?</p>
<p>God&#8217;s help on earth, and heaven too</p>
<p>Are all part of the prize</p>
<p>We&#8217;ll win, if we let God come through,</p>
<p>To open all our eyes.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Why do we ponder for things unknown? why do we worry of people that are gone,witches and warlocks and psychic&#8217;s  galore think they have answer&#8217;s but still are unsure.<br />
if your heart seek&#8217;s answer&#8217;s and your mind&#8217;s eye is mess, think in your own spirit for things you request.<br />
seek not of other&#8217;s for answer&#8217;s too thine on path for only you can evolve from the life of your  past,<br />
each time to become stuck with worry and fate, remember that you alone can open the next gate.<br />
life is full of constant trials and things unknown in time you shall move past what you are unsure give life a moment to settle it&#8217;s dust and look inside  your own spirit to find what you trust.<br />
do not pay other&#8217;s or seek there advice for your path is seperate of  others you pass even though we walk the same ground and earth as  we go never lose faith that your road is no more,you shall perservere in this world i know with love. worry&#8217;s and kindness and  trouble&#8217;s galore. peace be in your heart always with care peace be mine to all the world to share.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Red blood trickles down my eyes<br />
In the very thought of doomsday,<br />
We will all die, erasing all the lies.</p>
<p>Here we are in this earth, counting our last sins,<br />
Counting the last miseries, last hopes, last moments<br />
Last lives to live with, for whom the soul laments (afterwards).</p>
<p>And when you go, let your breath rest<br />
Let it take a sigh of relief, the last sigh of relief<br />
For the breath was your best friend, it has to live.</p>
<p>Your breath will freeze, turning into hailstones,<br />
Your pains will have its fatal clones,<br />
Your body will burn in them and you all will turn into stones.</p>
<p>My words are not just mere words,<br />
They are like swords, sharp, bloody swords,<br />
Now cry and get ready to suffer in herds.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The excitement mounts as the megadrive loads,<br />
&#8220;That&#8217;s him! I can see him! Right there!&#8221;<br />
Now all the people are screaming and shouting<br />
At the guy with long blue hair.</p>
<p>So, who is this babe?<br />
This iconic beauty?<br />
He&#8217;s a video-game prince,<br />
Sonic Hedgehog by name.</p>
<p>He leads a heavenly life,<br />
Desired and lusted by millions,<br />
You would have guessed it,<br />
Since he is perfection.</p>
<p>Is it Sonic&#8217;s fault he makes humans look like pigs?<br />
Or his fault he&#8217;s sexy and hot?<br />
So love and respect him for who he is,<br />
Don&#8217;t bash him for the things he&#8217;s got!</p>
<p>Is it Sonic&#8217;s fault his pixel consistency keeps him forever alive?<br />
Or his fault in a couple of years all your organs will die?<br />
His beauty will never fade when you&#8217;ll be old and ugly,<br />
3D models never degrade, such is the big mistery.</p>
<p>If you see him at Station Square,<br />
hold him a crown, buy him jewels,<br />
Let&#8217;s not be afraid of the words,<br />
He is a king, it&#8217;ll suit him well.</p>
<p>Saving the world, running so fast,<br />
Defeating Eggman too,<br />
starring in games, causing orgasm,<br />
Is there something Sonic can&#8217;t do?</p>
<p>He is this gem that blessed earth,<br />
Beautiful, perfect, divine,<br />
Somewhat flawless even from birth,<br />
As prototype from Sega line.</p>
<p>Sonic&#8217;s legend started in the past,<br />
god&#8217;s beauty poured into a dreamcast,<br />
could his charm be so wild and pure,<br />
as the day you saw him in Sonic adventure?</p>
<p>His emerald eyes shine so bright,<br />
He dazzles you, don&#8217;t deny it,<br />
And his smile lights up the night,<br />
try to survive the fainting fit.</p>
<p>Always looking wonderful,<br />
He&#8217;s the prettiest thing you&#8217;ll ever see,<br />
Just look into his eyes, there&#8217;s nothing more beautiful.<br />
and he&#8217;s the greatest character there will ever be.</p>
<p>Plus, there&#8217;s so much more to him than being an idol,<br />
He&#8217;s grand, strong and smart,<br />
Just admire all of him as a whole,<br />
His allure is a true work of art.</p>
<p>I proposed him,<br />
even two times,<br />
then he said yes,<br />
now he is mine.</p>
<p>This is something you can&#8217;t withstand,<br />
evidently, I understand,<br />
You are gnawed by jealousy,<br />
Just because he is my husband.</p>
<p>Oh Sonic, I love you with all of my heart!<br />
I adore and worship you!<br />
I&#8217;m proud to be your humble, devoted wife,<br />
And I&#8217;ll always be loyal and true.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Sail On<br />
“Fair winds and calm seas”<br />
 A sailor’s lament<br />
A bon voyage to shipmates<br />
Who went<br />
To a place of peace<br />
And heavenly content.<br />
All earthly chores<br />
Fulfilled and complete<br />
Now able to rest<br />
In peaceful sleep.<br />
Thomas Fenning<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p align="center">Autumn has arrived.</p>
<p align="center"> Trees decked out in Joseph’s coat</p>
<p align="center">Reds, yellows, orange, rust, green</p>
<p align="center">And every hue in between.</p>
<p align="center"> Leaves dancing and fluttering in the wind</p>
<p align="center"> Drop to earth</p>
<p align="center">In a dizzy spin.</p>
<p align="center">This wonderful display</p>
<p align="center">Is short lived.</p>
<p align="center">Winters winds will soon move in,</p>
<p align="center"> Earth takes on a</p>
<p align="center">Different glow</p>
<p align="center">With the arrival of first white snow.</p>
<p align="center">Bundle up and brave the cold</p>
<p align="center">Use both hands</p>
<p align="center">Your hat to hold.</p>
<p align="center">Quickly scurry to where</p>
<p align="center">You’re going</p>
<p align="center">Because the winds are</p>
<p align="center">Coldly blowing.</p>
<p align="center">Hurry home where the fire glows.</p>
<p align="center">It will toast your frozen toes.</p>
<p align="center">Have yourself a nice</p>
<p align="center">Hot toddy</p>
<p align="center">It will quickly</p>
<p align="center">Warm your body.</p>
<p align="center">Slip off your shoes</p>
<p align="center">Turn the TV on</p>
<p align="center"> Watch the news.</p>
<p align="center">Sleepily walk up the stairs</p>
<p align="center">For your nightly snooze.</p>
<p align="center">Say your prayers</p>
<p align="center"> jump into bed.</p>
<p align="center">Let the winds howl</p>
<p align="center">And scream</p>
<p align="center">While you enjoy</p>
<p align="center"> Some pleasant dream.</p>
<p align="center"> </p>

<p align="center">Fantasize</p>
<p align="center">Let your thoughts go wild</p>
<p align="center">Bring back your memories,</p>
<p align="center">Your thoughts as a child.</p>
<p align="center">Ride the range on a bucking bronc’</p>
<p align="center">Drive a race car at Daytona Park.</p>
<p align="center">Climb snow covered mount Kilimanjaro.</p>
<p align="center">Fly high aloft in a gas filled balloon</p>
<p align="center">Going higher and higher almost touching the moon.</p>
<p align="center">Sail the seas in a four mast schooner</p>
<p align="center">Circling the earth, catching large tuna.</p>
<p align="center">Ride a motorcycle, jump over high dunes</p>
<p align="center">Hearing the motor moaning zoom zoom.</p>
<p align="center">These are the pleasures of youth</p>
<p align="center">Before growing older</p>
<p align="center">And</p>
<p align="center">Discovering the truth.</p>
