Senseless..Part 1

Holiday where are thou? Colombo 2004

Yet again, alcohol the culprit, hence my glaring absence from "The Yard".
The month of September has been a complete headache with my new Partner In Crime, the Phantom. Problems after problems, and the escalating cost and the amount of time spent has left my pockets in dire straits and further inflicting neglect on the more important things in life, like DRINKING & SMOKING.
Besides that, there has been an increase with basketball activity in Singapore, and I have no idea as to why fools like me end up playing for 3 teams. *Perhaps the lack of nutrition from tropical fruits gives way to such unnecessary indulgence. All I can say is "1 trophy down, 2 to go!!"

Anyway, here I am again... hopefully to string my thoughts together.

Senseless Pt 1

Where the hours became happy,
Hence the yearning thrist became uneasy,
Oh,Where art thou dear friday,
Restless eyes hunted the deer'y,
Elephants trampled the soul through fury.

Be however limp the beating hearts,
Itching nerves simmered in blooded bliss,
Though pale is the death of the dying moons,
Cruelly swift passing eclipses the scorching suns,
Heavens are brightly clad in dark black gowns.

Thus with words we bartered,
Erring & inviting smiles we excepted,
And with time the whinning wine perfected,
Rising the virgin red apple has ripened,
Seeking serpents that licked the flesh you wanted.

Nectar was me and taste was you......
