Ashley's Philosophy Corner

"The saddest tale we have to tell is most often the tale that was never told."

Fighters of Our Inner Self, Seekers of Our Inner Peace 


What do we have
To offer to the world
That the world could never accept? 
These memories, these passions
Hidden away in the crevices of our soul
...Dreamt of, remembered
With a flash of pained expression 
Or a flitter of spectacular and angelic emotion
Like a cloth caressed with melted shavings of white soap
Sweeping and washing over the surface of our skin
So smoothly and soft, a legato feeling...

Can they not see? 
Can we not tell? 
Why is it we feel we must hold back so much?
Such a flood
Such a dam
For truly it is these that speculate who we are today

What is it that prods our dear spirits to turn away?
To continue to hide, to weep so hopelessly, in those dark 
And desperately alone spires of night, 
To look so often, wistuflly,
Up and away
Into the clear blue sky, and pale, rising sunlight
During walks of clear-minded haste
And refreshed sate of mind

Perhaps it is that we have realized the sacredness of it all
Touched them all
So that they have become real to us
For how could they not? 
So close to our hearts, they move and breathe
With our hearts
They live and breathe with us everyday
So that we comprehend
That letting go
Letting it seethe into the minds and hearts of others, would break us
Or would it free us?

Austin's Funnies Corner

    "What's orange and has green spots, eight legs, and one red eye?
    "I give up. What?"
    "I don't know, but there's one crawling up your back."

     Polygon. A deceased parrot.

    What's the best way to tell a kitten from an elephant?
Try picking it up. If it's too heavy, it's surely an elephant.

You've got to admit, this sketch comedy is pretty clever, not to mention funny. :)
Enjoy!

Anna's Great Literature Corner

    "What is wonderful about great literature is that it transforms the man who reads it towards the condition of the man who wrote."

--E. M. Forster
