Isolated Blurt Thread

[neonlyte]

<blurt>I've been extremely angry since I heard the news of Colly passing away. Some of that anger has spilled over into my recent posts and I apologise if I've offended anyone. In part, losing Colly brought back all the anxiety of last year and my own diagnosis with illness that threatened to be more serious than it turned out to be. Then the business of the chain story, the theme I'd chosen to write about, the similarities between Colly and the character (based upon a real person), their sexuality, their untimely deaths at approximately the same age - this actually shocked me to the core. I'd sent my synopsis to Colly just two days before, and I'm struggling to deal with that. I can't tell you how much I wsih I'd never sent the synopsis. So forgive my anger, it's with myself and not with you.<blurt>

All is understood and, if your insist, forgiven. Those of us that know you, know that the ranting was out of character, and most of us could make an educated guess as to the cause.

Fear not dear friend, all is well, as far as I'm concerned, there's most certainly nothing to forgive. Grief affects us all in different ways.

STILL.
AT 9.45 AT NIGHT.

FUCKING RIDICULOUS.

Lake Isle of Innisfree by W.B. Yeats

I will arise and go now, and go to Innisfree,
And a small cabin build there, of clay and wattles made;
Nine bean rows will I have there, a hive for the honeybee,
And live alone in the bee-loud glade.

And I shall have some peace there, for peace comes dropping slow,
Dropping from the veils of the morning to where the cricket sings;
There midnight's all a-glimmer, and noon a purple glow,
And evening full of the linnet's wings.

I will arise and go now, for always night and day
I hear the water lapping with low sounds by the shore;
While I stand on the roadway, or on the pavements gray,
I hear it in the deep heart's core.

 

[Equinoxe]

A scholar being ferried by Nasrudin across a body of water chided Nasrudin for his ungrammatical language, and hearing he did not learn in school said: "What? Half of your life has been wasted!"

Shortly afterwards, Nasrudin asked him: "Did you learn to swim?"

"No, I did not," replied the scholar.

"Well, in that case, it seems all of your life has been wasted. We are sinking."

 

[Nirvanadragones]

I will arise and go now, and go to Innisfree,

Isle Of Innisfree

I've met some folks who say that I'm a dreamer
And I've no doubt there's truth in what they say,
But sure a body's bound to be a dreamer
When all the things he loves are far away
And precious things are dreams unto an exile
They take him o'er the land across the sea
Especially when it happens he's an exile
From that dear lovely Isle of Innisfree.

And when the moonlight peeps across the rooftops
Of this great city, wondrous tho' it be
I scarcely feel its wonder or its laughter
I'm once again back home in Innisfree

And when the moonlight peeps across the rooftops
Of this great city wondrous though it be
I scarcely feel its wonder or its laughter
I'm once again back home in Innisfree.
I wander o'er green hills through dreamy valleys
And find a peace no other land could know
I hear the birds make music fit for angels
And watch the rivers laugh as they flow.

But dreams don't last, though dreams are not forgotten
And soon I'm back to stern reality
But though they pave the footpaths here with gold-dust
I still would choose my Isle of Innsifree.

Grr

So they discuss poetry when it's Yeats, but are oddly silent when I blurt one of mine. Interesting. Thanks so much for clearing that up! I'll never post a poem here again.

 

[neonlyte]

Thank you for your support Min, mat, Imp, EL and others who contacted me by PM. It is the very essence of 'community', the knowing that support is freely given and received. I hope I've turned the corner on this one, and I will finish the story, and try to honour her memory as she would wish.

 

[Equinoxe]

Once a renowned philosopher and moralist was traveling through Nasrudin's village and asked Nasrudin where there was a good place to eat. Nasrudin suggested a place and the scholar, hungry for conversation, invited Nasrudin to join him. Much obliged, Nasrudin accompanied the scholar to a nearby restaurant, where they asked the waiter about the special of the day.

"Fish! Fresh Fish!" replied the waiter.

"Bring us two," they requested.

A few minutes later, the waiter brought out a large platter with two cooked fish on it, one of which was quite a bit smaller than the other. Without hesitating, Nasrudin took the larger of the fish and put in on his plate. The scholar, giving Nasrudin a look of intense disbelief, proceed to tell him that what he did was not only flagrantly selfish, but that it violated the principles of almost every known moral, religious, and ethical system. Nasrudin listened to the philosopher's extempore lecture patiently, and when he had finally exhausted his resources, Nasrudin said, "Well, Sir, what would you have done?"

"I, being a conscientious human, would have taken the smaller fish for myself."

"And here you are," Nasrudin said, placing the smaller fish on the gentleman's plate.

Den er et grevling. Mann? Kvinne? Jeg vet ikke. Jeg forstår ikke hva jeg sier. Jeg forstår ikke norsk.

My Norwegian is beyond terrible. I should also mention that I have had trouble sleeping recently: always too little or way too much.

GRRR....

Ex-girlfriends who are still friends SHOULD NOT call my cell at 1am...and when I don't answer CAUSE I'M ASLEEP precede to leave me a message stating that 1) Maybe your parents are right and we should/will end up together again...2) That I should have seen you in your little black coctail dress...

First....I know you're a doctor and do 36 hours straight on call...and therefore your internal clock is all screwed up, but I'm an 8:30-5'er and since I have to get up at 6am I'm blissfully ensconsed in the arms of morpheous at 1am......

Secondly....I keep my cell on and by the bed so if there's an emergency my 82 year old mom can call me...NOT so a 27 year old can call and leave me strange messages on it...

Thirdly...I KNOW THAT THIS WAS NOT A BOOTY CALL, because we live an hour apart and neither of us would have driven at 1am no matter how good the sex might have been...You complain about coming to my side of town for a drink during normal hours...

Fourthly...I KNOW THAT THIS WAS NOT A BOOTY CALL, because the last time we saw each other (Saturday) you mentioned to me TWICE that sex was not an option (I hadn't even considered sex with you on saturday because my intent was purely to attend the festival of the arts to hear several concerts then drive an hour back home...alone. You invited yourself along to the festival taking seperate cars and left before the final act...)

Fifth...I KNOW THAT THIS WAS NOT A BOOTY CALL because you have remarked that my staying power prevents any form of mutually pleasurable quickies from happenning and you wouldn't have wanted to still be making "the beast with 2 backs" as the sun came up, nor would I have AND THEN GONE TO WORK ON NO SLEEP....I BET YOU'RE PATIENTS WOULD HAVE LOVED THAT TOO!!!

Sixthly...I KNOW THAT THIS WAS NOT A BOOTY CALL because the last time anything like that happenned (2 years ago) you felt so confused/guilty that you blamed me for taking advantage of you in an emotionally vulnerable and inebriated state (even though it was YOU who undid my zipper and pulled my out) AND every time we do get together for a drink or something, you mention it...

Finally...I KNOW THAT THIS WAS NOT A BOOTY CALL because frankly, as wonderfully nice and sweet you are (including coming over to examine my dad when he fell and refused to go to the hospital-then convinced him to go, and sitting at the hospital for 5 hours with us after leaving your own hospital after a 36 hour shift.) AND the fact that you tend to be quite a tigress in bed, or in the dinning room or the living room- SOMETIMES YOU ANNOY THE HELL OUT OF ME WITH YOUR CONSTANT NEED FOR VALIDATION Of your desireability then immediately shooting down said validation with statements like "No I'm not, I'm too fat..." And the fact that you usually only want to do something with me between boyfriends and then I have to give you the same ministerly relationship advice over and over again, which you promptly ignore and repeat the same mistake of dating losers who are intimidated by the fact that you are a doctor and have brains as well as big boobs and can actually think....

So why did you call me at 1 am anyway?

I went through that angry phase, too. Please don't direct it at yourself, sweetie - even though it is a quite natural reaction. Grief plays havoc with our minds, be gentle with yourself.
