      I think there's something wrong with your health, Van Spiderbait. It seems you're always sleepy! Why, nearly every day you seem to get sleepy.

      Perhaps you're not eating right?

        "The Huge and Nasty Spider"

        The huge and nasty spider
        Crawled up on Rachael's head!
        It crawled all around
        Then made a nice soft bed.
        It wiggled down her shoulder
        And jumped down to the floor
        Then the huge and nasty spider
        Crawled on Lilith's head for more!

          I concur. A diet consisting of nothing but her dark master's unholy seed certainly couldn't contain all the necessary vitamins and minerals a healthy body requires.

              "Annabel Lee"
              by: Edgar Allen Poe

              It was many and many a year ago,
              In a kingdom by the sea,
              That a maiden there lived whom you may know
              By the name of Annabel Lee;--
              And this maiden she lived with no other thought
              Than to love and be loved by me.
              She was a child and I was a child,
              In this kingdom by the sea,
              But we loved with a love that was more than love--
              I and my Annabel Lee--
              With a love that the winged seraphs of heaven
              Coveted her and me.
              And this was the reason that, long ago,
              In this kingdom by the sea,
              A wind blew out of a cloud by night
              Chilling my Annabel Lee;
              So that her high-born kinsman came
              And bore her away from me,
              To shut her up in a sepulchre
              In this kingdom by the sea.
              The angels, not half so happy in Heaven,
              Went envying her and me:--
              Yes! that was the reason (as all men know,
              In this kingdom by the sea)
              That the wind came out of a cloud, chilling
              And killing my Annabel Lee.
              But our love it was stronger by far than the love
              Of those who were older than we--
              Of many far wiser than we--
              And neither the angels in Heaven above,
              Nor the demons down under the sea,
              Can ever dissever my soul from the soul
              Of the beautiful Annabel Lee:--
              For the moon never beams without bringing me dreams
              Of the beautiful Annabel Lee;
              And the stars never rise but I see the bright eyes
              Of the beautiful Annabel Lee;
              And so, all the night-tide, I lie down by the side
              Of my darling, my darling, my life and my bride,
              In her sepulchre there by the sea--
              In her tomb by the side of the sea.

              Religious themes aside, it's a very beautiful poem...
              Hahahahaha, do you know who inspired that poem?

              Did you know that when you have Jesus in your life, it's possible to get through a whole morning without getting high? It's true!
              O Lord our God, help us to tear their soldiers to bloody shreds with our shells; help us to cover their smiling fields with the pale forms of their patriot dead; help us to drown the thunder of the guns with the shrieks of their wounded, writhing in pain; help us to lay waste their humble homes with a hurricane of fire; help us to wring the hearts of their unoffending widows with unavailing grief; help us to turn them out roofless with little children to wander unfriended the wastes of their desolated land in rags and hunger and thirst, sports of the sun flames of summer and the icy winds of winter, broken in spirit, worn with travail, imploring Thee for the refuge of the grave and denied it--for our sakes who adore Thee, Lord, blast their hopes, blight their lives, protract their bitter pilgrimage, make heavy their steps, water their way with their tears, stain the white snow with the blood of their wounded feet! We ask it, in the spirit of love, of Him Who is the Source of Love, and Who is the ever-faithful refuge and friend of all that are sore beset and seek His aid with humble and contrite hearts. Amen.



              God being truth, justice, goodness, beauty, power, and life, man is falsehood, iniquity, evil, ugliness, impotence, and death. God being master, man is the slave. Incapable of finding justice, truth, and eternal life by his own effort, he can attain them only through a divine revelation... he who desires to worship God must harbor no childish illusions about the matter, but bravely renounce his liberty and humanity.

                  Edgar Allen Poe wrote that for his wife. She was also his cousin. They first married when he was 27 and she was 13. Does the poem still seem quite so romantic now?

                    Well, if Mohammed could marry a 6 year old girl and consummate the marriage when she was 9, and Jerry Lee Lewis could marry HIS cousin, then why shouldn't . . . oh, wait. Those are BAD examples, huh?

                      The Cup of Milk (Boy approaches girl on the beach.)

                      These waves have come a thousand miles
                      To worship at your feet.
                      I have come to borrow a cup of milk
                      I live just down the street.

                      This was New Zealand Poet Gary McCormick's answer to the charge that there had never been a New Zealand love poem and that we are not only a Godless, but unromantic lot. McCormick himself is convinced that this not only fits the bill, but is a superior piece. It is brief, to the point, realistic, and berift of the foolish sentimentality that so often ruins 'love' poetry.
                      Revelation 21:8 But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.

                        It's cutting and good in message otherwise. Yes, applause for his excising maudlinism.

                            I think he jangles it quite deliberately to contrast the mundane with the somewhat purple first two lines. He wasn't being terribly serious. Your line three seems to me to completely miss the point. He has come to borrow a cup of milk or sugar; not to honor anyone.
