  1. You?ve clearly become disinterested

    In what I have got to say

    I lay here grasping for a breath

    Just to watch you turn away

    When did things go so wrong

    At what point did you change

    I use to feel you?d care

    If I stopped breathing

    How could I be so wrong

    You left us all here grieving

    In your selfish quest

    You forgot all about your charges

    In your wake you left a mess

    And only me behind to clean it

    Didn?t matter I was in no shape to do so

    But you wouldn?t understand this

    You never once came to me

    Just to ask if I was ok

    The only time you looked at me

    Was to complain about your life

    Even when I hid away

    Didn?t even know I was not in sight

    Never cared how I felt

    About the split in our home

    you marched along in your war

    ignorant to the damage made

    Never knew how close I came

    To falling off that razor blade

    how you beseech us now

    To return to your side

    You tell us how your proud

    To have made it out of hell

    Was it really that bad

    Everything was done

    To accommodate your needs

    As you marched along changed

    Never heard pleas

    So glad your happy now though

    Wish you all the best

  3. damn

    *cough* old people *cough*

    lol..

    forgot...i seen Rush with my parents...a year or so ago..

    LMAO!!! Atleast no one has said Billy Ray sirus or Garth Brooks......yet anyway

    Have you pick up Francis the Mute yet?

  4. In light of this new albatross

    The mall will be closed today

    The parasites are shaken by this

    To that we extend condolences

    But our culture is falling away

    The vultures fly in chaos

    Looking for a carcass to strip

    The savagery is always on tap

    Left with this milky water turned gray

    The pushing an shoving is quite severe

    as regal masses pick away the kill

    The noises they make are so trite

    This is the game they love to play

    Always a whore for yuppie designs

    Baseless clover in these shallow times

    It?s the frenzy for greed that truly delights

    The vultures receive all which they pray

    Turning a sparrow into cast

    The method call of the gathering feast

    Waiting for a deadpan delay

    Which of us will be a heathen today

  5. We are a perfect concert

    I can?t say what you can?t hear

    We are thoughtless perfection

    As this travesty continues to blow near

    How long until the day breaks

    And these cryptic halogens become clear

    How much longer can we lean for cover

    While being dressed with this vulgar fear

    As I lap into the company of cowardice

    At the place beside me you stand my peer

    With these hollow makeshift lies

    Continue to turtle and let discouraged steer

    Sucked into the vacuum of this repeatable cycle

    Never the hunter but always the deer

    These words spin around your ears

    The meaning forced yet you don?t hear

    Were stuck long in transit you and me

    Never the hunter but always the deer

    We?ll paint on our clown faces

    Move as if we really here

    But the echoing of this will bring us cold

    As the usage of this entity will smear

    The hollow echo rings as bells

    Never the hunter but always the deer

  6. How?s it possible to forget how to cry

    Have I fallen so much

    That my emotions have run dry

    Is it hatred towards you for letting me fall

    Or the feeble fact you won?t let me fly

    All I ever needed was a reason to stand

    Yet that?s been forsaken for the hot desert sand

    But here I walk again with my limbs burning dry

    I?ll continue to push ahead alone

    Until once again I?m griped by this tide

    Someday I?ll find everything I need

    One day I?ll know what it is to feel pride

    But really What does it all mean to me

    If by then I?m already broken inside

    As the fearful moon shines down

    Like a label of the cowards who continue to pry

    I beg and plead for mercy

    And receive thirty pieces of silver

    Yet this is the just and forgiven eye

    I recoil, shake and quiver

    Ask again for what will be Undelivered

    Worthlessness is truly your prize

    And I swear to wear it well

    Hanging there on each fruitless thought

    While the bags above my eyes swell

    Its one feeling left after my body?s holocaust

    When was it I became a submissive shell

    Let the rovers run me down

    And I?d be sure to extend my hand

    This my patrons is the true hell

    Forgot the brimstone and fiery ash

    Your soul burning in your body

    Is a torment you can?t lash

    Torture is knowing your hope is a dream

    Everything you wanted is something you can?t catch

    The hate inside has prospered for a decade

    Tell me what?s the cost to oneself to scratch this rash

    The mirror of despair is not easily matched

  7. Hello :)

    That subject ought to have riled you all up a bit. It's true, you know, I hate most gay stories. I'm sure, coming from me, that's quite a shock.

    Let me explain. I love a good story (novel, novella, short story, essay, whatever). However, many people write these specifically gay pieces and most of them, quite frankly, aren't very good -- more later.

    However, good writers write a fantastic story and one or more of the characters happen to be gay. That's not the same thing. And I'm not arguing semantics. In a good story, it should work pretty well regardless of the genders of the characters.  

    Stories where the whole plot exists SOLELY because the character is gay are generally weak.  

    (I am not referring to 'sex' stories where the point is sex. If you're not sure, remove all the sex scenes. If there's no story left, you've written a sex story. Call Harlequin and understand that what you have isn't literature.)

    Most of the authors here are good authors and write good stories that happen to have gay characters. Sure, some elements won't work -- like getting your ass kicked in school because you're straight.

    And there are exceptions "New Brother" is a fine work and if the character wasn't gay the story just wouldn't exist. No rule is absolute.

    Anyway, I wanted to vent after getting hosed, yet again, on Nifty. But I keep going back because sometimes you find a piece like "tapping" which is well worth sifting through the hellish morass of crap that lives at Nifty.

    I haye Nifty also, because most of the time any good stories end up not getting finished or end up getting finished on better site like Dudes, Dewy and a few others

  8. Everything I seek

    I?ve found was already given away

    Been second all my life

    Why would that change today

    If I were to blend with this crimson

    Less then a handful who would pray

    I?ve been walking the wire for a while now

    As I sit in this blackened room

    I wonder when It was I finally fell

    There?s a hole on my soul

    And it grows deeper

    I?m slowly dying here

    As this pain grows steeper

    Hidden behind my eyes

    As I try to compensate for this disease

    Is a pain that lies beneath the heart

    But I do just what?s needed to please

    Even as loneliness tears me apart

    I?d find away home to escape this place

    But there?s no one waiting for me

    This sound is more then I can taste

    Why can?t your cancer be for me

    There?s a hole on my soul

    And it grows deeper

    I?m slowly dying here

    As this pain grows steeper

    It?s killing me

    And they can?t even see

    It?s killed me

    Yet, even in death I'm not free

  9. APC, ICP, Fuel, American HiFi.

    My brothers been to a ton of sevendust concertm he saw them and El Nino last year twice. Lucky bastard has time to go to a ton of concerts, as a matter of fact hes going to see Slipknot tonight in Philly.

  10. Atleast your not going to jail.

    from aintitcoolnews.com

    This is terribly uncool. Kid arrested as a terrorist for writing a fictional zombie story...

    Ahoy, squirts! Quint here. I'm sorry, this isn't movie news or anything even close to being cool. This might stray a bit into some angry political debates below, but I find it hard to believe even the most radical of conservatives can honestly look at a piece of fiction written by a kid, a school assignment no less, and say that warrants him being arrested for terrorist threats. Really, where is the line going to be drawn? His story was about zombies overtaking a school and that was construed as a serious threat made against the school, ignoring the fact that no one in the story is a real person and the school is different. This guy's soon to go on trial for a felony offense and it makes me sick, personally. What's next? Stephen King better watch out because he's murdered thousands of fake people and, like King did in THE STAND, Tom Clancy has set off fake nukes on fake American soil... if that's not a terrorist threat, I don't know what is.

    Am I the only one ****ed off by this? If you agree that this is just and right, please let me know what I'm overlooking in the talkback below. To me this is so amazingly unAmerican... I can't believe something like this is happening in my country. Here's the full story:

    Hey Harry, this isn't cool...it's kind of the antithesis of cool. But it's the kind of thing that a lot of people need to know about. We're crossing the line and now I think our freedom is really at stake.

    CLARK COUNTY

    Student Arrested For Terroristic Threatening Says Incident A Misunderstanding

    A George Rogers Clark High School junior arrested Tuesday for making terrorist threats told LEX 18 News Thursday that the "writings" that got him arrested are being taken out of context.

    Winchester police say William Poole, 18, was taken into custody Tuesday morning. Investigators say they discovered materials at Poole's home that outline possible acts of violence aimed at students, teachers, and police.

    Poole told LEX 18 that the whole incident is a big misunderstanding. He claims that what his grandparents found in his journal and turned into police was a short story he wrote for English class.

    "My story is based on fiction," said Poole, who faces a second-degree felony terrorist threatening charge. "It's a fake story. I made it up. I've been working on one of my short stories, (and) the short story they found was about zombies. Yes, it did say a high school. It was about a high school over ran by zombies."

    Even so, police say the nature of the story makes it a felony. "Anytime you make any threat or possess matter involving a school or function it's a felony in the state of Kentucky," said Winchester Police detective Steven Caudill.

    Poole disputes that he was threatening anyone.

    "It didn't mention nobody who lives in Clark County, didn't mention (George Rogers Clark High School), didn't mention no principal or cops, nothing,"

    said Poole. "Half the people at high school know me. They know I'm not that stupid, that crazy."

    On Thursday, a judge raised Poole's bond from one to five thousand dollars after prosecutors requested it, citing the seriousness of the charge.

    Poole is being held at the Clark County Detention Center.

  12. I agree with everything said above. The story is great and very touching. I'm also sure that its hard to write at times for you James so I just want to say keep going because the work speaks for itself.

  13. Some stories I read for the plot, though I must say that a lot of plots are pretty similar. Gay boy thrown out of home by father who doesn't understand (always the father, mother is always sympathetic)... Seeks shelter with friend/relative... The genre has rules which are recombined in new inventive ways but are as predictable as an old Scottish ballad.

    But this story--I read for the writing! When I came to Part 5 and halfway through it realized that it was from a different point of view, I backed up to the beginning of the Chapter, and re-read, but the re-reading renewed my commitment to following the tale. And now with Part 9--(how do I phrase this without introducing any spoilers?)--having it narrated from that point of view is brilliance!

    Looking forward to further developments.

    --Rigel

    I was going to say the samething. In some stories the change in point of view can really hurt the flow, but in Angel it moves so smooth and really just adds to the plot.....I don't know if what I said makes sense so I'll agree that its very good.
