See here. She moves like something's missing, like in a dream of things primordial, long-tailed scooted dinosaurs that skulk around the bushes. Shame.
To wonder why the next who speaks repeats the thing you said, recieves the gentle laugh. To think to chit-chat. Just be content that no-one speaks and swinging tails of horseshoe crabs avoid your legs.
Out there the whales collide with ships, the kraken dance. My love whose ears are just like shells, I hear the ocean pressed against them, knows. The fairies hate a liar and a thief.
My love whose eyes are alabaster knows.
You've plumped up like a dumpling, firm and ragged. Look at me when you speak. You asked if there were rules to being real.
She moves like in a nightmare of the England overrun by wolves. So let the forest have her, if it comes to that. For shame.
The eight-foot terror-cranes once strode tall the savanna, snatching horses. The name that many races call themselves is "only people".
My love is this: someone who lies about all day in peace, on cushions, whose eyes are alabaster, whose ears hear only sea. My love holds water. My love can stare and stare as something makes the noise of ten excited crowds outside our door.
You are a walker. Ragged shoes and hobnailed feet and toes clawed like a raptor, but arms as far from graceful, noble wings as steel is far from cardboard in the road, and tracked with mud-soaked treads.
Tired and with pupils spread like dull and rusty pans. She stays awake that time that could be any day. Why can you not be like the rest, who chit-chat?
It's just like talking to a syphilitic. No taste in clothes. No sense of urgency. (God gave that to a flea!)
The fairies in the corners glare with all the hate they have for mortal folk. Milk curdles in your place, things move and letters from your words go missing.
Be real and true or things go badly.
Shame.

Mike has a dog; which pretty much means I have a dog. I love the dog. She is sweet and well behaved. She sheds a lot though. There is one thing I absolutely hate and it is animal hair on my clothes and all over everything I own. I vaccuum constantly. I can't wait until it warms up so I can shave her hair off.
I finished the last book in the Twilight series this morning and I am still debating on if I like it or not.
I am trying to find motivation to clean the bedroom.
I found out a few days ago that I did not get the GM position. I honestly thought the job was mine. I have been doing the GM's job for almost three years now, and I am really at a loss knowing that some stranger person is coming in less than two months and taking over my hotel. I am having a very hard time with this. I believe that I deserve the job. I plan on making some phone calls tomorrow and Tuesday to find out just why I didn't get it. They owe me that much right?
