You Missable Miss

You are such a missable Miss:
whenever you're not around
I miss you big big time.

You see,
a long long time
with you always seems such
a small short time
to me.

I miss
your voice
your smile
your walk
your talk
your all-the-while
presence
and the occasional presents
you surprise me with;
and obviously
I also miss
the morning hug
and goodnight kiss
from you,
my missable Miss.

'anti-piracy' driven by porn

Today I discovered something that shocked me, but of course it had been obvious all the time: I just hadn't been thinking. All along I believed that it was the record and film companies that were behind the anti-piracy crack-down that has turned nasty in some parts of the world, especially the States. I was wrong. The anti-piracy crack-down is being driven by the porn industry. It makes sense now that I think about it--the porn industry makes at least ten times the amount of money that all forms of music do and porn is everywhere, especially on the Web.

Sanctuary

Sanctuary

Removing my shoes
I enter your sanctuary:
perspiration swirls sweet
on the air like incense;
the choir stomps Alleluias;
the Gates of Heaven beckon;
and our communion
flows like the finest wine.

Wena!

Wena!

Lunwele lwakho,
luphahla lufulele;
emehlo akho,

umlomo wakho,

wena--
