Amsterdam 2008

Thursday 28 August 2008

and his name was...

scream of the butterfly...


do you know beauty ?
has he ever said hello?
he came to me one evening
and stood across my side...
he winked his eye softly
and gave a wink goodbye

he called me after some time
and i reacted with care
he threw me in a windmill
and make me walk on air

months of lovin
months of smiles
compliment after compliment
became one huge pile

he told me i should jump in it 
and stretch my heart about
and as i soaked it up always
he came around to say

his time is short
his will is good
he cannot love me
the way he should

i shouldn't cry and shouldnt doubt
for me he screams but i deserve a shout
a selfish thought
on his behalf..
if i hurt i should determine it's wrath

and so it all began to crumble
the loving and laughter 
to a hollow thimble

i won't say bye until he does
just to prove
that he's not love

note to self: run from the past

rebirth



Den Haag, The Hague
Leiden
Cutting
Madness
Police 
Junkies
Misery
long nights curled up in corners cying eyes til they are swollen
screaming back and forth, scissors being flung for what it is worth
smashed plates against the dirty walls of a small fucking room and his horny claws
mad passion and confusion
love and the disarray of illusion
my jim, his Pam, his whiskey, my cocaine, 
refrain from the past, jolt feet into ground and forget the fucking past

i went back to my past last night....
thrown into a realm of a false image of right
one scream two screams one morning no coffee no cigarette
packed bags, threw on shoes, held on to sanity and left

broken heart, swollen puffy eyes
on tram stops before the elderly and the wise
sit alone, music bounded, closed eyes until grounded
love and hate ...we get it wrong...
he stills fails ...when trying to sing my song

note to self
run from the past
tis a far greater thing to be destroyed by mountains of cocaine and layers of acid 
than to be run down by a man who tries to convince you that love is a priority when he stares u in the eyes and screams at you incessantly.

hello dad, goodbye dad, rest in peace.
the hour of my discontent transformed into years.
i crawl back to you in interest of salvaging what i thought i knew.
forgetful bitch of tiresome blues
death makes angels of us all.
i look forward to wings which will replace these claws....




RIP Jim

what is and should always be....

"that's the way"

Dad's Guitar

oranje fans....

Me and Brani



another led zeppelin title to a blog..only this time i'm publishing this....so i got home this evening and realized....i'm quite smitten.....smitten with a man who's afraid of smitten women....afraid...perhaps...numb....he says he is dead inside....fair enough....i can understand that....but why now? when i meet him? why couldn't it have been before this chick fucked his head in? Anyways...such is my life....as the dutch say ....' net niet' ....close but not quite.......
atleast i'll have stories to tell to my 50 cats when i'm 45, single, writing raunchy romance novels...being known as the fucking scary wench on the corner by all the kids.....

tja....

tonight...a taxi driver saw me from across the road and went out of his way to disobey traffic rules...and then asked me all sorts of questions...fucker...even gave me his number....i am content to know that i am recognized...i dont have to be to feel worthy but...it's a nice feeling..however....never felt by the ones i want....
eventho...this special one i'm in love with....it was like that for a while....
but someone hit pause...please...i've had enough of a break for now...i want to smell him and touch him again......again and again.....and fall asleep....with his hand in mine.....the way it was....just for a while...no worries about forever .......the wicked ways of the curly angel....


to be continued...... but it will take a while.....

patience....

in the meantime...goes by quickly if i smile....

Nixie

Nixie...

Glow



Our beloved cat back home on Sint. Maarten. he is one of 4 kittens adopted at the veterinary clinic. and no it was not difficult for me to get this shot, as i have a natural talent and ALOT of patience with cats (grew up with them all my life since i was 5 years old) and they love the camera..atleast when i hold it. :)
One of my favourite things when i visit the island i was born on.




i miss my kitty cats on the island...

i miss connecting with the feline
the hunter
like my sign...the centaur...connected? maybe....

dutch cats are just not the same (except for my first dutch cat " Karma" - will blog abt him another time) 

maybe it's the lack of sunshine...
or palm trees

for me...
