The moon was bright, the sun fresh dead,
When Judith o'er my doorstep tread;
When sulked the sky and slept the birds,
Earth's ceiling lit with stars in herds.
She gave a kiss- "It felt as two"
I told her in a charming woo.
She gentle smiled and granted me
The pleasure of her mirth to see.
We took of wine, with modest sips,
Then, soft, drank from each other's lips.
A cautious touch, a chaste embrace;
The curving of her spine to trace.
Fair Judith shared with me her dreams-
"I'll make them true, though hard it seems."
Then laughed she, loud, at my expense,
Still, gentle lovers were we hence;
For when the birds sang once again,
Obsessed, like little animals inside my head by Filiuk, literature
Literature
Obsessed, like little animals inside my head
Obsessed, like little animals inside my head
Keep scratching summer's lair off the rubbled walls,
Covering them with mud paint, soaked in mourning gowns.
Today the zoo is closed; the gentle beasts roam free.
My coveted lamb is dead; slain, in a strange wolf's paws.
The agnus Dei, privy to the good of God,
Unknown to dangling fruits of centred garden trees;
Not long still spared of Eden's bloody treasury.
If ever it returned to me, the bitter hope's mahogany
And ivory dreams of lakes with bottoms brown and still.
But no use dwelling on past visions in this wake;
Death swift takes her due, inclemens in extremis.
Sick, like lepers ju
When dull, the morning fingers seep into my skull by Filiuk, literature
Literature
When dull, the morning fingers seep into my skull
When dull, the morning fingers seep into my skull-
When bright, the tentacles of light spur tickles unto me,
I know the new of day is come
And drafted throws me in the onset tide
Of poignant coffee cups and stark-dry bread;
The rearing drops of sweat on heavy gears
And flattened wheels, pushed through the cunning holes
Of asphalt Flemish roads.
When weak the sun bears down, wearied,
Unto dewdrops; hinges of diffusing light,
I know the night is done
And eye's rest must cede to the rallied bright.
No quarter given to the outworn mind,
Whilst limbs, stretched over lengthy hours' labour,
Drag along the yearning fibre;
Fabric torn a
Happiness is not a gift,
But the well earned treasure of life's brigands;
Not to be waited for, but claimed unrelenting.
One seizes it, or never sees
The brightest white of true ivory,
But just the maligned veil of withered teeth.
In barren hearts of fools I call my friends by Filiuk, literature
Literature
In barren hearts of fools I call my friends
In barren hearts of fools I call my friends,
An unrich flower grows; a farmer's rose,
That blooms whichever way air traffic sends
This steerless seed, adrift without repose.
Their lands be arid, acres reft of life;
A dried up desert, nemesis to growth;
Still grows that poppy, overcome all strife
With enemies all other life does loathe.
And though the daffodils might mock its leaves,
The noble rose resent its nimble throne,
No haughty flower has its red outshone;
Cause while these bourgeois plants, uptight, tide well
Inside their wealthy master's garden cell,
All these will wither, wealthy care deprived.
Tis blood alone that moves blunt men along by Filiuk, literature
Literature
Tis blood alone that moves blunt men along
But bitter blood has bloody strife undone.
Though wise men may peruse their speech and pursue peace,
Tis blood alone that moves blunt men along.
The time to take the stage and act has come.
In favour of this war, speak out and force a move
Upon this coward's hand; this state of slaves.
The strong alone shall rise to stand next day
And pay respects to deaths, though well deserved,
Of servants who've their superiors served.
None but the old can claim the idle right;
They, who've already surrendered their part in life.
All others - all - must partake in this strife.
As old men squander time in parlours stuffed with dust
And books writ by a withered hand,
New blood creeps through abandoned corridors
That charges our present world as is unjust.
Their youth rejuvenates the paper hearts of those
Reigned by the scribbles of a different time.
As old men learn again to act and walk,
Their mouths are rid of habits old and talk verbose.
Their hearths rekindled, flames arise to former warmth
Again to drive out coldness from this land
And work the rusty wheels of industry.
With fingers locked and arms clutched tight, they face the tide
And though their keen of sight may well corrode,
No salt shall scra
I pray the ravens remain silent now by Filiuk, literature
Literature
I pray the ravens remain silent now
I pray the ravens remain silent now
And bow their feathered necks to face the clouds;
The winds shall cease to stir the poplar trees,
To rest unmoving in tranquility.
When then this orchestra has played its song,
We will bring down, with pride, his tired limbs
And lift his shoulders from their lifelong strain
As soon, he too, will from this world be gone.
Let then the quartet strike their strings again;
The choral cries fill empty skies
And claim the air that swerves still violently.
Let life on earth its jubilance retain
For each to find or search the while he tries,
Though death does move the wheels of history.
Your death shall build no fortress here by Filiuk, literature
Literature
Your death shall build no fortress here
Your death shall build no fortress here,
Where I have underdug the fields
And scattered fearless batter rams.
Your death shall build no fortress here.
We'll flee its path and seek refuge
In forest moss, lush greenery
And climb the high trees, if we must.
Your death shall build no fortress here.
To shun mankind, we'll become birds
To sing each other soothing tunes;
To make forget the howling herd.
Your death shall build no fortress here.
And when we'll die, then let them search;
Collect our souls, they'll find them not.
Far from those wolves, again, we'll perch.
Your death shall build no fortress here.
This death shall swift be overcome by Filiuk, literature
Literature
This death shall swift be overcome
This death shall swift be overcome
By no Greek heroes vying;
But bitter pride has harm undone.
If need it be, then walk lonesome
To avoid tedious prying;
This death shall swift be overcome.
Don't listen, the time isn't come.
Neglect their vicious lying;
But bitter pride has harm undone.
The passer-by pities seldom,
One shouldn't waste time trying;
This death shall swift be overcome.
And soon this battle will be won,
No need to bother dying;
But bitter pride has harm undone.
My arms will be the sole welcome,
The haven to confide in.
This death shall swift be overcome;
But bitter pride has harm undone.

Literature
Love Me, Not A Label
Love me for all my labels except one,
Appreciated and hold tightly the deflecting lung,
Look at me from a different side,
Cross my boundaries with nothing to hide,
Speak to me with a meaning behind each word,
Ignoring the link, members of the same herd,
Smell the sent, please don't forget,
The blurred meaning of the word; protect,
Ignore me, the approaching season,
Just don't always use the same reason,
Hold me, forget the gap between my birth and your tomb,
You can push me away, just not when another enters my room,
Support me, provide more information then text,
Help me draw a line between abuse and sex,
Forget me, leave centr

Hi, sorry about that, I've heard so from other people too. I'm not really using that address for correspondence anymore anyways, so you may as well block it. All future e-mails will be sent from devos.jelle@hotmail.com
By the way, sorry for not replying for so long. I've been procrastinating for a while to answer your latest mail because of the hope to write a decent answer, but it seems that won't be anytime soon. I'm sorry, but it's just that with the end of the year drawing closer, there's a lot coming together with organising the school dance, entrance exams, finals, year projects and fund raising for the scouts, so I guess it'll be a while before I can resume our correspondence, or at least in the lengthy manner we used to. I might be able to do shorter chats that require less lengthy attention though, if you'd rather?
Anyways, hope you're well and again I offer you my apologies
No problem at all, I was just a little bit worried that something was wrong. I understand that you are very busy and so am I so whenever you’re ready to start again where we left off (this time with shorter summary of our days)) I'll be waiting. Question are you going to your prom?? Peace, P.S-plz don’t scream me like that again I almost had a heart attack and wish you luck on whatever is occupying you.
