Curtain Call
Curtain Call (is an audience-led call for a performer or performers to return to the stage after a performance, typically in response to applause.) The curtains open. And there I am — on this stage.

Still trying to...

Premium Member Bad Habit
I'm still alive cos living’s my bad habit And like a bird is used to feel the saving sky I’m used to live on autopilot so won’t rub it With multiplying the essential reasons why But disappointment gets too huge to handle Got to bargain myself a little beggar mind To think more highly of the immigration ramble As if...

That Girl
Am I that one girl, the one with a seed, that one with potential to make it big? Am I that girl who's good but never great? That one who would've made it had the circumstances changed? Am I that one who worked too hard, only to hear her hard work wasn't enough, that others were simply better? Am I that...

Premium Member Disappointment
A shadow lurks 'neath gilded sun, Unseen, yet ever near. When hopes are high and paths unfold, It screams within our ear. With visions vast as boundless sky, And hopes like flames aglow, It silently creeps with wistful sigh, And beguiles us in our woe. Yet through its veil of somber gray, A hidden light doth dimly gleam, For its dark visit will not convey, The...

Demonstrative dedication
Easy to entrance the sycophants watch their helpless dance their back and forth swaying and swooning, in cunnilingual somniloquence. Droning and drooling with flattering and fawning, turgently swelling, spouting placating pleasantries, a mess of gushing adulation. Self exultation, craving congratulation by consensus for another conventional sensation, clamouring for congratulation in lurid inflated infatuation. Curtailing castigation, striving in...
