Alone, adj. In bad company.
In contact, lo! the flint and steel,
By sharp and flame, the thought reveal
That he the metal, she the stone,
Had cherished secretly alone.
Thanks for the inspiration, Manjusha
2005 Update: Having the enemy surrounded with no victory at hand.
specially if you are at home
ReplyDeleteNot one's ideal end game following a night out.
ReplyDeleteKarma, that's where all my enemies live.
ReplyDeleteSar, wait'll you're my age.
and that would be?
ReplyDeleteOh, Sar, I knew shouldn't have gone there. Seven years older than your brother. I think my profile is transparent.
ReplyDeletein the best company: myself
ReplyDeleteGood for you, Andria. "In good company" was the first draft this morning. I feared people would think I was in a good mood and wonder why, since I look nothing like a blowpop. Well...
ReplyDeleteYou really feel alone when you need a loan
ReplyDeleteHuh? I'm confused.
ReplyDeleteI just thought that I come visit your blog and say hi.
Hi!
Ok, I wants to say more. Thanks for visiting my blog and posting a post on my blogs post that you just posted to! I had to go fix that post I posted because I made some gramma mistakes in that post which made me look gay, because I'm not! But they are ok.
I was serious with what I posted on my post that you posted to, but I'm happy that my post made you laugh, because everybody needs a good laugh, but not my grandma, because I'm fraid her face might crack, which is not a good thing, because I love her!
I hope you are having a nice day, and thanks for visiting my blog, again.
Icy, I'd love to help you out but it's been a really tough month and I gave a lot to the SPCA and, look, I have to answer my friend Rockchild but don't be a stranger, ok?
ReplyDeleteHi, Rockchild, my two mommies, Ana and Angela, made come over even though I wanted to burn ants. I guess I had a pretty good time, though.
Alone - Ask for one from a friend and you soon will be.
ReplyDeleteAlone.... I much prefer being not alone.
ReplyDeleteBeing in emotional pain and alone.... now that's the worst!
Alone, adj. A momentary state in which conversation improves, concentration accelerates, hopes soar, and mankind becomes tolerable.

Unhappily married.
ReplyDeletePrying, I guess I'd missed the financial gag. Good one.
ReplyDeleteJamie Dawn, may you never be.
By golly, Gabriel, that's what I wish I'd written. Hats off. Deep bow.
Poetry from brother Sreekesh, the largest shareholder in Waking Ambrose. Thanks, boss.
Gnat, I prefer my solitude organically grown.
I'm the hermit type. I'd love to move into a cave all by myself, if I could bring a girl with me.
ReplyDeleteInde, that doesn't sound like hermit to me. It sounds like a poet wishing for a quieter muse.
ReplyDeleteIf you're 7 years older than Strider, then I'm only 2 years younger than you. Does that leave me old by association?
ReplyDeleteMore like ancient.
ReplyDeleteWell I guess I'll be joining you at Bingo.
ReplyDeleteWelcome, but I should warn you I cheat.
ReplyDeleteYou'd have to because my bingo skills are lightening fast even for my old age.
ReplyDeleteB4...and after!
I remember back before there was "B"
ReplyDeleteWhat, when it was INGO?
