Premium Member Marina Green, San Francisco
Ah, my Marina Queen! You, who reigns over the Marina with grass so tantalizing, so verdantly green. Holding costly homes that gaze over the San Francisco Bay, I adored the music of fog horns, and could listen to them hight and day. We all blessed by a mystical, silent drops of fog! Embracing the Marina and we, your most serene residents...

And soon we'll sleep...

The Silent Love Song of Marina Abramovic
I Walked An Hundred, Hundred-Thousand Steps, To give you the good-bye I could not speak. Atop the Great Wall, you and I, Opposites, Ascending and Descending, For six-thousand-five-hundred-and-eighty-five miles (and a half)… Have met To say Good-Bye, But I could not speak it, And all My arms, my lips, my body Could say to you, was: 'Please, don't go! Don't go! It isn't time to say...

Under Caress of a Plush Plaid By Marina Tsvetaeva
My dream of yesterday I'm calling under caress of a plush plaid, What was that? And who won? Who's falling? Who was defeated? What is bad? I think again, I change my thinking, Anew I feel the sweetest pain, Say, was it love of just a winking, I have no word for it again. Who was the prey? Who was the hunter? All is...

Guys Inspired My Marina and the Diamonds's Girls
Look like a guy but I think like a girl So ladylike, it makes people hurl Easy to be sleazy when they've got filthy minds We stick to stereoides, chicks are not blinds Guys are not meant to be flirty Never unmarried after thirty I love your Boxer queue I'll be flirty for you Is there any possibility You'll quit gossiping about me Men don't...

I Like That You Are Ill, But Not By Me By Marina Tsvetaeva
I like that you are ill, but not by me, I like that I'm not drowned within your fever, that heavy sphere of earth will never be ran out under the feet of us like river. I like, I can be funny, yes, i do, to be so carefree playing not with phrases, and do not blush with wave of...
