Fulmer" Subject: ET: Conversation with God Part 2(poem) Hello everyone, Everything's sorta alright in my neck of the woods. I am scared but I sense a benevolence in the fear. As always I love Stephany, but the poison and the hurt has been relieved a bit. I have a feeling when I go to sleep tonight, I will have a good night sleep. If any of you have questions, feel free to ask them and comments too...If you don't want to receive my poems, let me know and I'll honor the request. Take cares and Have a Great Day!! :o) -Seth ============================================ Conversation with God Part 2 by Seth D. Fulmer 8/13/00 So much in love So much in pain The fear of loss The fear of gain I love her so much I got attached way too fast To detach right now would be hell if I lived She wants to start over and learn about each other She wants me to ask her out and to romance her again I'd love to, and I will as many times as it takes The fear is unnerving but exciting at the same time I love the pure adventure I'm an adventurer all the way Lord, though I wish I had for me a cheat sheet so I didn't lose this time You know if you've been following me my incredibly poor success record I ask a girl out, she says "Go away" This one though loves me God I don't know what to do In video games I have a book with me that tells me all the answers How events and plots turn out and if the hero gets the girl in the end It tells me if I should go left or right or just stay right where I am I'd really like something telling me all that for this relationship and even for life I'm in love, and I need breaks Lord I am slow now but I might speed up You know I like to go fast though please give me confidence to slow down I finally have a girlfriend though someone in whom I can confide Please hold my hand God and direct me in how to do this You know I love to help you out I help people all the time and read your word I want to just get through this experience with few scars and a loving, fun, outcome. ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 13 Aug 2000 15:52:50 -0400 From: shivergirl Subject: ET: ~portable love and sleepmasks~ feedback would be welcomed :) love and such, shiv + we are having an affair and she doesn't even know about it and i am finally getting my long-lost revenge because you don't even realize it + out of commission bonus for the month by only forty dollars or just some pairs of shorts foreign pennys for my work when hustling is all that i am worth + i fell in love with the guide who was bringing me to you forgive me for desiring the easy way for recognizing your face but missing the translation you kept hidden even to yourself where he only had one tongue you have multiple thought-outlets to describe your love + sunburn why is it always my turn to blister when i keep picking at the peeling the red blotches resembling our relationship trying to hurry up forgiveness like it can be found in the noxema of my personality noticed by others when i'm still feeling raw underneath this newfound maturity no matter what the pink protests old skin flaking it's all for the best sacrificing sunscreen thinking i could make my scattered freckles line up into something i wouldn't want to burn off or cover up + 11, 000 virgins by hildegard von bingen a wheel of chants i never gave a sonic chance to feast upon the innocent like some patron saint of anonymous hymens i find harmonicas and hair brushes twisted up there instead responsory instruments for the places you've never went psalms out of sequence disregarding the carnal commandments of holy benevolence i think it was and i am writing now a hymn a canticle you can't sing it back but him shooting radiance across the distance from within composing joy around technical equipment nouveau-poet boy wrapped up in the mystic my herbalist without herbs healer of the plasticine heart with broken-up words i heard + the nuns of my convent were so very strict and austere so i sent them to a strip club as a joke one yesteryear not far from here and they gave up their habits and had themselves all kinds of fun picking up new earthy ones remembering the colour of their hair and what breasts can be used for besides drinking instruments for the milk for the son of man before whom there was woman + ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 13 Aug 2000 17:28:49 -0400 From: "Seth D. Fulmer" Subject: ET: Dating Proposal to Stephany(poem) Hey everyone, Please read this and give me some feedback please :) Okay, like I talked to Steph last night and found out what was up, plain and simple...FINALLY after a week..I wish she would have told me a week ago but I can see why she waited too. She wants to start over when she goes back to school in a week and wants me to call and ask her out again and romance her and sweep her off her feet. Problem is that I have this problem of being too powerful(not really good term but if you know me you know what I mean). I'm trying for effect with this poem and I'm looking to read it to her and use it to ask her out. I'm not trying for "a good poem" per se but I want POWER in the poem like I was told I had in the first conversation with God poem(hell she said it made her cry). If you have ideas, advice, etc. on how it is or how it could be improved for effect...if I can cause angels to fly out of the sky with the poem...so be it, I want it done, although I doubt that it can happen. Anyhow, I'll let you all to peace..if you don't want my poems lemme know but please read and let me know anything you think about it :) Thanks!! :o) -Seth :o) P.S..She's not getting this poem now in email..but when I use it to ask her out ============================================= Dating Proposal to Stephany by Seth D. Fulmer 8/13/00 I'd love to be able to walk away from here without thinking that I'd miss you Without you though I am miserable like a little bird without its mother I would like to no longer fear anything You know that too I love you without pause I want to do this right, without failure this time Can I please ask you something this night? Down on South Street honey, at a time and date not yet set There is a little, cosey restaurant Where we can get to know each other Would you like to go with me and perhaps continue what we started and if you want to afterwards, we can can a stroll and talk ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 13 Aug 2000 21:11:23 EDT From: KTLUVSJOE@aol.com Subject: ET: humanity Hey guys. I wanted to ask if any of you have been to the holocaust museum in NYC? I went there yesterday with this group I'm in at school that deals with conflict resolution and things of that nature. My teacher who is like the most interesting guy in the world brought us there to teach us that hate isnt always a bad thing when your dealing with matters like those. "If you hated what you saw today, then were on the right track" is what he told us after we left. Inside, there were numerous pictures and eerie documents.-Needless to say, I was crying within 5 minutes of entering the building. The thing that stood out in my mind the most upon exiting the building was this movie they had running about the children. They showed pictures of some of the kids that died, among them was this little boy that looked EXACTLY like my 5 year old cousin who I would basically guard with my life. He is also of jewish descent and I started thinking, "wow, what really is stopping this from happening again? From happening here?" then it hit me, Nothing. the worst thing that happened was that nobody tried to stop it and in a way they are just as guilty as the ones who were killing. It just struck me as one of the most terrifying things that my mind has ever conjured up. The catholic church did nothing and I'm supposed to be happy about this? I was raised in the cathic religion, although lately I have been exploring some other not so corrupted religions (no offense to anyones beliefs) So I'm glad i've been doing that. Just some thoughts i had, I figured I'd share them. Blessed be, Katherine ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 13 Aug 2000 23:09:23 -0400 From: shivergirl Subject: ET: ~silly poh-emm~ ;) ok, just wrote about two graphs saying hi to everyone and then i just lost it. cyber-gremlins. yuck. it mentioned trying to get kara-kara back, wondering how ben was, saying hej to holly, love yer stuff, and seth, change the first line of tonight's and you'll be fine. good luck. waves to jon and dr. romeantic and sam and kat and sorree about the car stuff and roya rocks and wow this becoming seriously compressed. :) and courteny i hope yer still hyper-happy and how is chris? and kevin are you still on this list, thanks fer the update.. where's that genius annie? lovely armisia? is nai still in bliss? oh, and hi marty. ;) now it's time fer the silly poh-emm i only helped to write. it's from a goofy funnee fwd my fren sent and i went along with. you type in adjectives and words out of context and they slot them into a predictable template that can quickly turn hilarious if you don't offer the usual...... ;) love yous, mese + one BRAINY summer day at the forest you see the most FIREFLY-HOT creature you have ever seen his name is MATTIS and every move HE'S-a-HE makes just turns you on more and more you nudge your best friend KELLY and say, wow, that has to be the most EMOTIONALLY-SECURE body i have ever seen then suddenly he's-a-he looks in your direction and starts walking straight towards you-- saying, i noticed you staring at me from over there and i just had to tell you i think you're so HAPPY-SHIT was wondering if you'd like to go to the BOAT with me and WRITE LOVERLY E-MAILS? with a stupid smile on your face you say YIPPERS! and go with him then the two of you are passionately kissing when you feel a KISS hit you on the back of the head. the end ------------------------------ End of eda-thoughts-digest V3 #297 **********************************
