World caves in

World caves in

i sit alone in painful times as I seem to in all times, I sit and look upon the world and wonder why..........why.........why is it the world is driven by narcacissm, hubris and the ever increasing need for instant self gratification, a world of beauty transformed into a gamorrean garden of visceral excess. All depth left for dead, love sits forgotten weeping tears of diamonds as the world is consumed by cheap lust, when did we stop caring when did people just become things to be used and thrown into the mud as they move to the next and the next and the next. Why is it so quiet now, why is it so empty, why is it so cold. When did it become stupid to have morality and standards and self control, when did love become a word to be thrown around as just some empty sentiment, when did sorry lose meaning, when did words become just words.

he sits upon the earth frozen to the touch but warm deep within, he looks upon the people and weeps that they shall never see or feel what real love is, he dreams of things that will never be because the world grows dark around him, his heart so big it was thought unbreakable people had cut it, times had aged it, people had crushed it beneath heavy boots, but he stood back up again and again denying the fall he could see, but then he saw what we had become, what everything was, is and shall be, and his mighty heart broke in two, now he sits invisible to all holding within his hands the pieces of a once great and beautiful heart.

Sounds like all kinds of no fun, sounds like the well old days when they used to take the kids to the executions not overly helpful in contributing to the healthy psychological development of a child

Re: World caves in

we used to order day old chickens and pick them up at night from the bus,, had a section(strake to be technical), but that wasn't farmspeak, of an old rainwater tank, with ground covered in straw, and huge infra red heat lamp over the top, which could be raised or lowered depending on the temperature at the time

Re: World caves in

I guess some of it is just run-of-the-mill on farms where the produce is meat supply ... but yeah ... bit hard on the kids to be directly involved from a young age ...

I loved the fishing .... had to dig up our own worms to start the day .... and load the hooks ourselves ....

Huge vegie gardens are the best ! Still love the smell of vine tomatoes and freshly turned earth.

Re: World caves in

Fishing, yabbying all that kind of stuff and beaches were the best place to get worms, though my fishing tended to always end the same way, flathead except once when crab netting where I caught a bunch of leatherjackets

Re: World caves in

My mum used to keep fishing tackle in the boot of the car, threw a line in wherever she found water that looked interesting enough ....

She boiled up crabs we'd caught in the kettle of a hotel room once ... lol .... memories ...

Re: World caves in

For the most part was never more than ten to fifteen minutes walk from beaches and used to go to Bairnsdale once a year for a holiday and fish in the river, I am not a big fan of seafood, I think because on one of these fishing trips we were eating the of course flathead I had caught and I cracked it because and I quote "plastic in my fish" also known as bones but they was clear seemed like plastic to my 5 year old mind

Re: World caves in

Lol .... yeah it would come across that way at 5yo .... I think I only learned to like eating while fish once I learned where the bones were and how to open them with the lowest risk of "plastic" in the mouth ....

My grandfather made the best fish and chips in a camp oven on an open fire .... used to be catfish .... and it was great. He knew how to prepare them.
