The Oath of the Order of the Dragon

On Earth alone, there be our treasure's store.
Our pleasure in their pain.
Of song and silence, let there be no more.
May only noise remain.

Ohne Dich

i'm going into the pines;
That's the last place i saw you.
But the Autumn casts a cloth over the land,
and over the roads behind the wildlands.

And the wood is so dark and empty;
Wow is me, oh woe.
And every bird has ceased to sing.

Without you, i cannot live, without you
With you, i'm just as alone as without you.
Without you, i count every minute, without you
With you, every second stands still,
they're not worth minding.

On the branches and boughs,
everything is so quiet and lifeless,
and my breathing becomes labored...
Wow is me, oh woe.
And every bird has ceased to sing.

Without you, i cannot live, without you
With you, i'm just as alone as without you.
Without you, i count every minute, without you
With you, every second stands still,
But they're not worth having, without you

Rammstein: "Ohne Dich" ("Without You")

"Egyptian bells are ringing when it's her birthday, my sweet nothing I'm talking about you there's a hurricane blowing your way."

Today is a day for celebrating the miraculous fact that I've managed to not die for another year.

We celebrate this herculean feat by setting a cake blazing with fire.

The more years I accumulate, the more chance I have that the fire will burn off my eyebrows.

I am not quite sure what this is supposed to symbolize.

We also celebrate with presents.

They help.

Victus Mei Animus Cum Conscientia:
Quod Me Nutrit Me Destruit.

Finally figured out how to post to this.

I wish that I could somehow figure out how to convert the time I waste into useful and productive time-units.

There has GOT to be a formula somewhere for that.

Notes from the Antagonist

When it was all over, I closed my eyes. The tears kept coming, regret flowing over. I sobbed through clenched teeth and tried to take it back.

I couldn't.

Every ounce of my will focused. Every muscle straining. I racked my very existence trying to undo what I had done.

I couldn't.

What's done cannot be undone. Once said, the words can't be unsaid. I prayed, suddenly, for the first time. I prayed that this would be the end.

It wasn't.

perhaps

Oh how interesting! A little inspiration to get something that was.
From something that was to something that is.
And from something that started as nothing.
From nothing that became something and ended as quick as it began.
Perhaps, perhaps.
A little motivation, a little inspiration a little point of view.
