I cry

So often

reading on this site.

The poetry can be lousy but almost always so true,

It’s hard to write now,

tears obscure my vision

I thank you all dearly

for your gifts

every day here is Christmas,

without the commercial bullshit.

pain is a gift too,

and I love your courage.

thank you

with love,

Jess

see now

that's just not right. And I will tell you why: Because now I will have to wear a fire proof suit, which is made, of course, out of what looks like tin foil, which of course makes one look like a robot. and of course, I think of who else? Bender from Futurama... then I get this HORRIBLE HORRIBLE picture in my head that YOU F*CKING PUT THERE YOU AUSSIE CRETIN! *Breathe!* ok, better now, going to my happy space. Mark W.
