Lieven Grillaert I was angry with my friend; I told my wrath, my wrath did end. I was angry with my foe: I told it not, my wrath did grow.And I waterd it in fears, Night & morning with my tears: And I sunned it with smiles, And with soft deceitful wiles. And it grew […]

Present from Lieven 8.
Lieven Grillaert As I am feeble, pale, and weary, And my wings are nearly furled; I have caused a scene so dreary, I am glad to quit the world! With bitterness I’m thinking On the evil I have done, And to my caverns sinking From the coming of the sun. * The heart of one […]
2011?
Yes, I copied this from a friend, called Khano on Booksie: You know you’re living in 2011 when: 1.) You accidentally enter your password on a microwave. 2.) You haven’t played solitaire with real cards for years. 3.) The reason for not staying in touch with your friends is they don’t have a screen name […]
About the Table and the Chair.
Said the table to the chair, “You can scarcely be aware How I suffer from the heat And from blisters on my feet! If we took a little walk We might have a little talk. Pray, let us take the air!” Said the table to the chair. Said the chair unto the table, “Now you […]

Re-post Yves François.
Yves François: “There comes a time in your life, when you walk away from all the drama and people who create it. You surround yourself with people who make you laugh. Forget the bad, and focus on the good. Love the people who treat you right, pray for the ones who don’t. Life is too […]

Lieven Grillaert And Now For Something Completely Different (Monty Python’s ) lol *** Sleepless, I lay last night and watched the slow Procession of the men who wear my clothes: First, the grey man with bloodshot eyes and sly Gestures miming what he loves and loathes. Next came the cheery knocker-back of pints, The beery […]

Present from Lieven 3.
Lieven Grillaert Picture puzzle piece Lyin’ on the sidewalk, One picture puzzle piece Soakin’ in the rain. It might be a button of blue …On the coat of the woman Who lived in a shoe. It might be a magical bean, Or a fold in the red Velvet robe of a queen. It might be the […]
Present from Lieven 2.
Lieven Grillaert Bright star, would I were steadfast as thou art Not in lone splendour hung aloft the night, And watching, with eternal lids apart, Like nature’s patient sleepless eremite, The moving waters at their priestlike task …Of pure ablution round earth’s human shores, Or gazing on the new soft-fallen mask Of snow upon the […]

A dream within a dream by Lieven Grillaert on Saturday, 13 August 2011 at 23:46 “For my own part, I have never had a thought which I could not set down in words with even more distinctness than that with which I conceived it. There is, however, a class of fancies of exquisite delicacy which are […]

All along the watchtower – Bob Dylan.
From Rishabh Agarwal’s Gallery on Picasa There must be some way out of here, said the joker to the thief, Theres too much confusion, I cant get no relief. Businessmen, they drink my wine, plowmen dig my earth, None of them along the line know what any of it is worth. No reason to get […]
Unfortunate, but true!
I think it´s going to be one of them days! I had difficulty getting up this morning, because all my muscles were hurting(ok, ok, the atrophied bits that are all that remain of what used to be Sly Stallone material). I don´t know, maybe it´s the heat that causes it. Seeing as, in this weather, […]
Tiger´s Lament!
Almighty Hunter that roams the blue steppes, save me from the ministrations of these feeble creatures, that somehow managed to enslave me! My immortal feline spirit is being crushed by an ocean of boredom. Just put one of these fiends within my grasp, to use as a mat and to sharpen my claws with. How […]

Valencia and Paqui.
Steve got some money out of the wall, enough to get the four of us to the next stage, being Valencia. Dominic begged off, saying he´d been there, done that, got a whole wardrobe of T-shirts. So the three of us, Steve, Paul and myself left on our own. Dommy and ourselves were pretty emotional […]
Lovely Barcelona!
It was evening when we arrived in Barcelona, which is a wonderful city. Gaudí helped design parts of it and it is a must, if you´re artisticaly inclined. Just the Sagrada Familia, one of the cathedrals is worth a visit. And the Parque Gaudí, a park designed by the great man himself is unusual. Don´t […]
A Way Out?
I´ll have to hurry. I´m in the library and I only have the one hour to start this. Bear with me, would you. This isn´t easy. It´s not something I´m proud of. but there you go. Permit me to introduce myself: I´m Ralphie and I´m a street bum. NO bullshit. Two things to keep in […]
