On the Brink

The picture is the creative work of mgeroneslu

On the brink

falling, falling
for i stood too close to the edge
intentionally, willingly
got the push i needed from a haze

falling, falling
heart racing, blood pounding
scared of this move
reaching out, flailing, nothing to hold on to

falling, falling
my life, all i have done, all i failed at
flash before me
what do i leave behind?

struggling, struggling
pushing back at the thrust
fighting, battle of wits for my life
whispers in my ears, 'failure!'

An article caught my eye today @ http://odili.net/news/source/2009/jul/21/310.html .I couldn't help musing. In these sad, harsh trying times, people have the time to rebel over trivial, inane issues! The article is talking about people who are rebelling over a priest in a catholic church allowing women to wear trousers to church!!!!!!!!!!!!! Hello!!!! What century are these guys living in?

There is hunger in the world, there is a recession, people from other part of the world are trying to look for solutions to world issues, people are coming up with various innovations, inventions, and here are these people, fighting over nonsensical issues! Just so silly!

Keep Feeding Ya Eyes

Now I believe this is really a very good way to promote quality of life! What better way, than to spend hours on end in traffic, under hot, sweltering sun! I really love this, if only more the few good roads could be made to be like this, then we could all be at standstill! No go forward or backwards!

Feed Ya Eyes

“The two former Heads of State and a former Vice President benefited to the tune of millions of dollars while a former security helmsman and brother of a head of state were also implicated of having played critical roles in the sharing of the Halliburton bribe money.”

At it again!

Yes they have come again. I was just reading the news this morning and this headline caught my attention - African leaders to ask G8 to honour pledges. Yes in my opinion, they have come again – that brood of irrepressible, imbecilic, long-necked, often-times-pot-bellied idiots have come again! they never seize to amaze me. At the beginning of the current economic crisis, all African leaders had to contribute to a solution was ‘ Whine! Whine! Please do not forget us! Do not forget the aid you promised us! please we are poor! We are stupid! We cannot help ourselves! We cannot empower our citizenry! All we want is Aid! Aid Aid’ Yawn. This is all getting very boring! these brood of vipers need to get off their collective backsides and think of ways to move Africa forward, rather than come to the world stage at every opportunity to beg for Aid! Silly idiots!

Moving on – to more interesting stuff? Not really, just some more stupid stuff going on out there. All I seem to see around lately are just stupid people with even more stupid ideas. Yes, the Young, Mighty, Strong, All-powerful and supremely Inane youth wing of the UDA has issued this warning -

"No sympathy for foreigners, get out of our Queen's country before our bonfire night (July 11) and parade day (July 12). Other than that your building will be blown up. Keep Northern Ireland white. Northern Ireland is only for white British."

Well, here I am scratching my head along with millions of other perplexed individuals around the world, thinking of ways to get out of a Global Economic Crisis, thinking of how to survive a Swine Flu Pandemic – and, these guys are here issuing stark, illiterate warnings! Amazing! Wow! Well, they do deserve an applaud! they should even take a bow and pat themselves on the back for being such wonderful and meaningful contributors to World progress. Ah! Well, what do you know! Anyway……………………it’s all for Queen and Country! Heil, young Hitelerites!
