taking_the_words_away
making the words the same color as the background there is fear
and there
is love

we all
have both

our words
born of love
are beautiful

our words
born of fear
are empty
brutal
or meaningless
breeding anger
contempt
confrontation
and indifference

if words
are reflections
of who we are
then our fear
should only speak
loving words
that it might
be driven out
of our hearts

you can attack
those you fear
but your fear
will remain

you can argue
until you are
blue in the face
but you will not
convince anyone

you will only
make the fear
in them grow
and you will
meet their anger
you will meet
their sarcasm
and their hate

only loving
gentle words
have any power
over the fear
that resides
in our hearts

i will not
argue with you
only walk away
and you will
speak
and speak
and speak
to an empty blathe
your fear
expressed as ego
and anger
and sarcasm
there for you
and you alone
to read

i can live with
my hypocrisy
because
ive grown tired
of watching you tremble
and lash out
at one another
for no reason
other than your
lifetime of
conditioning
to behave this way

find something
better to do
with your words.

tea leaves i think
after all
the madness
the religious
debacles
the political
insanity
and the love
i have felt
and been shown
throughout
that
although
it tears
me
to shreds
this
is
a
sign
from
something
better
than
myself
that
now is the time
for me to finally
leave blather

is lost

unhinged please don't take my words away










sometimes these blue words are all i have to help me feel better (and with no hard copy of anything i have written here in the past three months, it only makes me more sad to have no permanent record of some of them that i would like to remember)

taking the words away for unhinged
for tea leaves
for sab

who speak
from the best
place
which humanity
has to offer

for those
of you who
swallow pride
in the name
of communication
and speak not
with anger
but with heart
and soul

to you
i concede

for you
and those
like you
prove yourselves
deserving of
this place

the others
could learn
alot
from you

accept my apologies
for any
of your words
that were
taken away

thank you
for your time
and your example

thank you

stork daddy i concur. 041129

tea leaves blather means
everything connects
we are all connected
spiderwebs clinging
to eachother
reaching across
the darkest void
white thin arms
letting me go

stork daddy so if i beg you not to take my words away, this will somehow show an appreciation of blather more than my total dismissal of you and all you stand for? and you talk to other people about ego trips?

eh what the hell...here goes...

please, please don't toss my words into the blue. i'm begging you.
blather is the only thing i have sometimes. sometimes at night i sit alone, drunk off of cough syrup or, if i can afford it, muscat wine and blather is the only one to share it with me. blather is the only attempt i've ever made at writing, and i've come to love all of the people here. in fact, i intend to one day leave a spendthrift trust to blather. when you take away the words, not only does baby jesus cry, but so do i.

whitechocolatewalrus the words can still be seen if highlighted. this makes me so sad that a person can have no none zero respect for people other than him/herself. 041129

This seamstress is someone we know, however. And knows us.

minnesota_chris but really, everything that everyone writes is written out of pride. We're all horribly selfish. Including the person "taking_the_words_away"

is that "douchebag" written on my forehead too?
