S, C & aBoR- Captain Diana Jamieson

Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum
I got me dagger and me gun
Woe to the man who dares to come
Near this woman
I'll shoot him in the bum!

Twas a man with an ego so large
There was no place for the ship in the barge
The new age ones call him an mcp
Well he tried to get the better of me
And before he knew it he went through it
And found his ass in the deep blue sea

A love lorn fool came up and said
'If I don't have thy love, you'll find me dead'
I asked him then
'Do you want to do it yourself
Or shall i shoot you instead?'
For I have no patience
For the light in the head

And on the rival ship stood so proud a man
The captain such a lofty man
He laughed when he saw me a female captain
And laughed at my crew
At every woman- following man
I could have easily blown the ship
And that I did do immediately after
I shot his pants buttons with my gun
And they fell down to rollicking laughter

Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum
I dare ye laddies, dare one come
For we ladies can't be outdone
Definitely not when we've got
Our bottle of rum ;-)

Skull, Crossbones And a Bottle O' Rum- Tales From the World of A Pirate

Twas a dark stormy night
On the All Hallow's eve
That Viktor Groth steered his ship
Through the black tides of sea

From whence the storm
Had laid its seige
None had a hint or clue
Tis they new for sure
They'd be dead
Till the new morn was due

Afraid to lose his ship
Unwilling to lose the loot
Viktor called on the devil
'I shall make a tryst with you'

And so he lived to tell the tale
He lived to tell many more
The Devil's messenger on this earth
Fear of anyone who dared to row

Even the sirens turned their tails
He was cold to the warmth of love
What he preyed on- human hearts
Though anything human he'd long forgot

He lived with the ghosts
They formed his crew
And anyone foolish soon realized
Anyone who messes
With Viktor's crew
Is the one who surely dies

And then the day dawned anew
When Viktor saw Gail Remington
And at once remebered all
Their love when they were young

He cried out as her ship came near
For here was the ultimate test
He had to torture and to kill
The one he'd always loved best

As she was tied and brought onboard
His heart lurched at the memory
Sweet caresses, sweeter kisses
One fateful night at sea

So he proceeded with the knife
To scar what he had always cared about
But instead he cut his chest
And pulled his own beating heart out

'Take this and be happy'
He shouted for the world to hear
As he fell to his knees, fell into the sea
And disappeared

For lo my friend and tis the truth
A man can be the devil himself
But in the end wat one would do for love
Can wake the devil himself from hell

Study

One could read a thousand word
Front to back and back again
With nothing being absorbed
With as yet an empty brain
One could spend time memorizing
Each word and each detail
And yet not have the inherent knowledge it takes
To ensure they do not fail
Why don't we take our malleable matter
This utterly dependable grey
And understand how it wants to learn
Such that we do not forget what we learn today
As important if not a whole lot more
Is how we study to how much
So be it according to the questions in the papers
Key word notes or anything else
Challenge yourself to study the best way you can
Ace your exams
And do nothing less.

Journals

That most irritating of books
So filled by the history of my mistakes
So disgcraced by the details of manipulations
So hastened by the deadlines of marks
So anxiety-wrought by the little scratches
Cancellations
As neat as i could make it
It still isn't neat enough
To be the paragon of scientific virtue
I've been busy dreaming of
Perhaps if i spent a little less time
On thinking of change and betterment
And put my thoughts into action
There'd be a cause for contentment
For though not a perfect paragon
At least then i would find
Less enough cancellations
To bring me my peace of mind

Sorry

Sorry I shouted that you didn't care
Sorry I painted you black
I had to hate you if I was to leave you
My love was the cause for that

Sorry I clung too much
Sorry I blamed you for selfishness
You were there when I needed you
And my insecurity's not a reason
To respect you as less

Sorry my darling I need you
You're my brother and my friend
And maybe you are the smarter one
For knowing this clearly even then.

Lithium

You helped me through my worst
My friend whenever I needed one
You became the shadow I could lean on
I'm addicted to you, lithium

Maybe love's the spell you've put me under
When I'm with you I'm not the same
Withdrawal symptoms when I don't have you
Keep coming back for more
Again and again

Maybe I'd lose a part of myself
Maybe I'd just go on anyway
You were my lithium and not the drug
Who I do love
But in a yet undefined way.

B*tch

(Fire on Nemesia- The B*tch)

One day it will happen

I'll scratch your heart out

Make you eat dirt

Let you drown in your tears

One day it will happen

You'll feel my verbal fist in your face

You'll sweat with emotion

You'll panic with disgrace

B*tches are one in a million

Their breed is too few

Lucky you've got one right in the mirror

Staring right back at you

Travellin in Da Rain

Splish splash splosh
Got me saying 'Oh F*k'
When my brand white jeans
Got browned up in muck

I had to discard
My umberella when
In those wily winds
It got inverted again

Just as I got to the station
To my vast amount of irritation
The moisture had taken all the friction
Landing me flat on my back portion

Just then I had had enough
So i took my cell to call my car
Only the rain had flooded phone lines
So i had to take the train to Bandra

In the train I got wet again
Due to a dripping windcheater
Shivering with the cold
My teeth began to clatter

Relief came with my station
But alas it was too soon
My eye nearly got poked out
By an umberella of maroon

The drenched seats of the bus
Forced me to finally accept
When travelling in the rains
You get and you stay very wet

Unrequited

Powerless to destroy
What i'm slowly being destroyed by
Is it enough to understand
Love is never enough to get by
Is it enough to accept the fact
These dreams will never see the light
Is respect enough
To sacrifice what i know deep inside
Is a higher love
What I was always aiming for
Or is it now going to be
My tool to help me survive?
