I do not think of it very much at all... these are not real tears...they are... a leak...an untidy imperfection... no, no... a purge of the senses... you understand...fire... see...fire...can be extinguished... can be...killed...drowned... no, no... *what is this?* these tears are not real. - -- a poison fills me but doesn't have the grace to kill me no it just fills me. - -- white battenburg lace loved by ink and sweat and coffee and blood, the whiteness is startling and I lazily observe the contrast against my richly tanned legs... but the mocha skin is gone now honey for an hour cream soon to follow dreams and spit and tears and stars are woven into these fading lace sheets the one's that know my every curve so well - -- it's easy to feel pretty beneath the latest trend and a painted face with these tools I can hold my head high but when night comes and I face my reflection cleansed of beauty aides ---- will my chin be lifted still?

His father gave him a bag of nails and told him that every time he lost his temper he must hammer a nail into the back of the fence. The first day the boy had driven 37 nails into the fence. Over the next few weeks, as he learned to control his anger, the number of nails hammered daily gradually dwindled down. He discovered it was easier to hold his temper than to drive those nails into the fence... Finally the day came when the boy didn't lose his temper at all. He told his father about it and the father suggested that the boy now pull out one nail for each day that he was able to hold his temper. The days passed and the young boy was finally able to tell his father that all the nails were gone. The father took his son by the hand and led him to the fence. He said, " You have done well, my son, but look at the holes in the fence. The fence will never be the same. When you say things in anger, they leave a scar just like this one. You can put a knife in a man and draw it out. It won't matter how many times you say I'm sorry, the wound is still there. A verbal wound is as bad as a physical one." Friends are a very rare jewel, indeed. They make you smile and encourage you to succeed. They lend an ear, they share a word of praise, and they always want to open their hearts to us. It's National Friendship Week. Show your friends how much you care. Send this to everyone you consider a FRIEND even if it means sending back to the person who sent it to you. If it comes back to you, then you'll know you have a circle of friends. <> ________________________________________________________________ Get FREE voicemail, fax and email at http://voicemail.excite.com Talk online at http://voicechat.excite.com - --part1_cff6231a.25059c50_boundary-- ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 6 Sep 1999 19:04:18 EDT From: JewelAng@aol.com Subject: ET: looking for an email from Mr BB Hello, I'm looking for an email from Mr BB from about a week ago.
