Like the poem, well written. I write poems and short stories too. Have even published in different mags and recited on radio shows .This was when I was short of money.
Keep it up.
she danced in stolen dresses to a chopin polonaise in moonlight bright pentameters suggesting shakespeare's plays.
her bare feet on cold concrete told her story to the crowd hustling brusquely past her as grand music played aloud.
she dreamed the dreams of millionsto be known and rich and fairyet slowly it was fadingand nowno longer cared.. the wind swept in at midnight her borrowed time ran slow the lady in the stolen dress stopped moving to and fro.

Something weird and scary happened to us last nihgt. We had a few friends over for the weekend. We love to go hiking and long walks wherever and whenever we can. So as Usual around 11pm we decided to go for a walk in a country park 7 minutes from us (although main gates are closed at 7pm, other open paths are there for access.). As we were nearing one of the accesses, we notice a car passing us slowly,(this is all realization after the incident).We go through and it is a cloudy and windy night so more dark than moonlighted.Most of the area is woods, huge trees, with specific pathways leading you towards the centre of the park and round it.But in the night it looks kinda spooky. Anyways, we are just enjoying our walk,gone past midnight, we hear some rustling every now and again.Thought nothing of it. Kept on for some more and decided to sit somehwere and chill.
We choose a spot which is kinda like a hole underneath the trees and shrubs and bushes as a huge branch had fallen and drying, which made a pefect spot to sit on and chat.(I have been here and done this many times so I knew).
After just 15 minutes or so we heard some whispers and rustling.Suddenly we all went quiet(5 of us,3 females,2 males). It was just odd. Then we saw two largely build,stocky men walkign along (we were well hidden coz of the hole which we did not realize before) as if looking for someon or something. We thought possibly walkers like us but they were acting weirdly. Lokking back and forth as if searchign at the same time watching for god knows what.Suddenly one of my friends says look at their hands.I nearly fainted, they both had some kind of large knife.Immediately we all stopped breathing,like this is life or death,they are looking for us.
We all just lay low and quiet did not move or breath, not knowing what to do. They made atleast three full rounds of the park or semi park looking fo rus . Once when they were passing us one of them said "f### it, missed them,lets go back".
All os us just stayed there for fear till daybreak, freezing cold and tired but dare not move in case they were still around.
Narrow escape, We dont know why they were looking for us but looking at the knife not something nice.
Sworn off parks and woods and hiking I suppose for a long time.
Teeth Chattering while writing.i shared one of these before in which my approach left something to be desired, and i got some flack for that, and rightly so.
so if this story doesn't go over well i won't share another... but given how it ended, i just had to share.... a few days ago i took a trip to a nearby city by bus.
in the about 20-30 minute window between my connecting buses i walked over to a mcdonald's and got a cup of coffee, and when i came back to the little bus station i saw a literature cart sitting unmanned near the doors.
I simply ask thought provoking questions in a non confrontational way (like why does it say this , why do you believe this, or this doesnt make sense can you explain....choose your subject carefully ) and as if I want to understand , Wait for their answers , if not you have planted a seed. This cant be instant ,the years of deeprootedness takes time and patience, above all Love to uproot.
when waking up it often isn't an instant switch, there's a period of time when your conflicted feelings are heightened and most uncomfortable.
can anyone remember specific instances in the time before you fully woke up that made you uncomfortable or guilty, despite you still being a 'believer'?.
i can think of two right now, both about a year or two before i woke up:.
Hi All
For me it was an instant click and the pieces fell apart. I remember it was with regard to a convention, then 3 more letters read about it at the same meeting. That was it for me (wont go into details).Immediately took myself off the Jdub grid so to speak. I wouldnt encourage anybody else since about the religion period.
Peace.
what did you make of the conventions i used to dread them.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j6bhlhtbaos.

the wainui-o-mata hall is closing and from 01 february they will be relocated to the 200 seater hall in newlands.
johnsonville is merging with the wellington west congregation and will be known at wellington central also to be located in the newlands hall.
wellington east will remain in the hall in kilbirnie at this stage but rumour has it that this hall will also be sold and they will make up the third congregation sharing the newlands hall.
Yes there is "so much growth" in lawsuits and they need the funds for it.
and has finally succeeded in burning one to the ground.
.
Lets see who will cough up the money to rebuild one, insurance company or the Borg....not.It will once agin be naive local attendees. Better still the Borg will rake in the insurance money and ask the cong to use another hall nearby. Kaching .
Peace All
another mind-numbing edition with instructions on how adult jw's should be conducting themselves as "christians.
i did like this paragraph though - after some reading between the lines:.
page 11, par.
Here goes Nothing
Gods so called Organization has made many so called adjustments in recent years, including the use of so called new tools and methods in our so called ministry,the format of our midweek meeting, and the way we so called build, so called renovate and so called maintain our KHS.
Hope you get the joke.
