My Influence |
I have this thing. Maybe it's not so much a thing, as an issue. I don't really know what it is. It's something about me. I'm going to write about it for a short while. Partly, it's so that I can try to come to terms with it. Partly, it's to explain it to those close to me. I imagine that some people will recognise what I'm talking about soon. Maybe you know about it, maybe you suspect it, maybe you won't realise until I mention it now. |

Ashenvale Hunt |
Maledon heard voices on the road ahead, and stopped dead in his tracks. The Tauren snorted and tilted his massive head, so as to hear the sounds better among the ambient creaking of the Ashenvale forest. High voices. Elven voices. He turned slowly on the spot a couple of times, considering his surroundings. With a satisfied grunt, he hoisted his bow further up onto his shoulder, and trotted up to a small mound. A low cliff wall rose behind it, offering protection to his back. His hooves dug into the soft slope of the mound; the forest floor was thick with leaves. He positioned himself amongst the foliage atop the mound, and drew his bow from his shoulder. He crouched down in an effort to make himself smaller, shifting the sword and short axe on his belt as he did so. And he waited |

Pop Trash |
So, standing in line at the local Costcutter today, buying my dailys, I got very angry. I recognised a tinkering sound coming from the store radio.... It sounded like Eric Claptons gorgeous song, 'Wonderful Tonight', being disembowled by either Generic Boyband #2 or Generic Boyband #3. This time, the innocent, cheap crap has gone a little too far.... |

Voices In A Crowded Room |
There are many people within me. Maybe it is better to say that there are many personalities within me. In these pages, you can quite easily see The Poet, and The Romantic ... |

Binary Reality |
Love, perhaps, is the coldest force in the universe. It is cruel, unforgiving, and relentless in its primitive desire for the perfect mate. This is just one of many hard truths I am confronted with everyday. However, it is not something I believe in: I want so desperatley to be proved wrong about it, and for the world to be different. But in this world, love is just another cold hearted, opportunistic face of existence. |

The Colour Of Music |
| Have you ever wondered what colour music is? I myself don't simply wonder, I know. Now call me crazy if you will, but I see colour when I listen to music. Not literally see, like flies in my eyes or anything like that. Rather, in my minds eye I see a mass of colour and movement. Ever heard the Red Hot Chili Pepper album 'By The Way'? Well, to me it is red. When I think of the album, I think of red. When I listen to the album, I am left with an impression of redness.... |

Eplilogue |
| I'm sorry. I'm so, so
sorry for everything. I only wish I could turn
back time so that you could have never loved me. I never wanted to hurt
you. I never thought it could go so wrong. I'm sorry for every let
down, every disappointment I forced upon you.... |

My view on the
world |
| There is little doubt in
my mind that everything I understand about my life is wrong. I am quite
certain that I am not who I think I am, and that the universe
does not operate in the manner in which I believe it to operate
in. Clearly, life is not a well photogaphed and scripted movie. Even
more clearly, I am not the hero of the piece.... |

Finding Peace |
| To prose then. Perhaps to
prose I can trust, at a time when verse eludes me like a reflection on
a river..... |
