celine (Adam Weishaupt):
My reason can't rein in my heart, I see.
Since I have spoken thus impetuously,
I must go on, my lady, and make plain,
A secret I can no longer contain.
You see before you a most sorry prince,
A signal case of blind conceit. I wince
To think how I, Love's enemy, long disdained
Its bonds, and all whom passion had enchained;
How, pitying poor stormed-tossed fools, I swore
Ever to view such tempests from the shore;
And now, like common men for all my pride,
Am lost to reason in a raging tide.
One moment saw my vain defenses fall;
My haughty spirit is at last in thrall.
For two years now, ashamed and in despair,
I've borne loves piercing arrow everywhere;
I've striven with you, and with myself, and though
I shun you, you are everywhere I go;
All things call up your charms before my eyes
And vie to make my rebel heart your prize.
My heart is trumpeting with you near,
On the other hand, the hell with this love shit.
I'll rather have an ice cold beer.
That's NOT How Racine Wrote It
Excerpt from "Phaedra"

cheshire (Mary Vogt):
please don't ask questions
I itch all over
let me sleep
...
there's really no escaping it
there's going to be a cloudburst here

jik (Jonathan I. Kamens):
I hate Passover!

jtkohl (John T Kohl):
Chorus:
Damn, this traffic jam
How I hate to be late
It hurts my motor to go so slow.
Damn, this traffic jam
Time I get home
My supper be cold
Damn, this traffic jam
Well I left my job about 5 o'clock.
It took 15 minutes to go three blocks
Just in time to stand in line
with the freeway looking like a parking lot.
[CHORUS]
Now I almost had a heart attach
Looking in my rear view mirror
I saw myself in the next car back
Lookin in the rear view mirror
'Bout to have a heart attack
[CHORUS]
Now when I die I don't want no coffin
I thought about it all to often
Just strap me in behind the wheel
And bury me with my automobile.
[CHORUS]
Now I used to think that I was cool
RUnning around on fossil fuel
Until I saw what I was doing
Was driving down the road to ruin
- "Traffic Jam", James Taylor, _JT_
