The Lesson, Part II

and small.

cordolf (Richard DeCristofaro):
The song of the Arolen
'Ere the greyid twilight falls
I have a tremblous tale to spin,
So come here, children, gather all
As I sing of an Arolin.
This Arolin would ne'er have dared
To splitter by the wilitoed square
Since the phrixus and the corobine
Would often slanter close to there.
Except this once, the gruntled 'lin
Wandered blithely toward that field,
Entranced by the spindling weave within
And a cortal desire which did not yield.
So, succumbing to this pervish urge
She found herself entrapped by phrix!
And from the corobine's quillsome dirge
Expired, victim to their crueling tricks!
And so the quizzled Arolen kin
Wondered what became of that one 'lin,
And now they all warn errisked children
With the song of the lost Arolin.

jcbourne (Juliet C Bourne):
Baby I just can't wait / Till I see your face
Chase away this loneliness inside
("Missing You Now", Michael Bolton)
-----
Companionship, partnership, mutual reassurance, someone to laugh with
and grieve with, loyalty that accepts foibles, someone to touch, someone
to hold your hand -- these things are "marriage," and sex is but the
icing on the cake. (Lazarus Long)

mingliu (Minghsun Liu):
"I feel as if I am a spider residing in the corner of a B747, incapable
of comprehending its destination and knowing the forces that built this
machinery."
"I think I am designed by a force I can not content with, living in a
world that really doesn't exist anymore. I believe in the basic law of
natural selection where those achieving the greatest reproductive
success are selected for, but I do not have any child. I also believe
hunting is one of the most crucial step in the evolution of Homo
sapiens... We do not know how much things
are capable of changing, but at least we are sure that we can rise and
revolt. The evolution of life on earth does not tell us what is correct
and what is wrong or that we have to base living on the exercise of free
will."

therese (Therese):
Our written history is a catalogue of crime
The sordid and the powerful, the architects of time
The mother of invention, the oppression of the mild
The constant fear of scarcity, aggression as it's child
