The Harvest

The weight of days on me...
I am done.

The corn is burning under my feet,
the words like circles and
I'm waiting for someone to catch my fall
in the deepest void of all.

Haven't seen you in weeks,
no clouds in the sky to rain me a drop
loving touch I need
and I am killing time by the lake,
diving off the cliff, many times -
scarring myself, colliding
on the lake bed so dry...

The world's without virginity
and souls have no integrity...
The Word of grave old danger - Love,
it's all I'm after, oh
I am done...

The ground's not shaking under my feet,
the World's not turning anymore!
Wind is a thief, lonelier than me
and it - does - not - want - me - in here...

Plant a Flower of Love, care for it, water it,
lounge in the shade of the stale champagne -
a flower so fatal, yet beautiful.
Showed the Bee where to fly
and then let it die.

The world's without virginity,
the souls have no integrity...
The Word of grave old danger - Love,
it's all I'm after, oh
I am done...

Bring me to recovery!
Give it to me! I'm after tranquillity...
I somehow lost my line of sight
before I cast the final die...
Once planted plastic grapes,
the harvest of a lifetime,
real bad wine.

The sum of false virginity
and my lost integrity...
The Word of grave old danger - Love,
for you I'm after, oh
I am done...

The world without virginity,
a soul with no integrity...
The Word of grave old danger - Love...

Bring me to recovery!
Give it to me! I'm after tranquillity...
I somehow lost my line of sight
before I cast the final die...
Once planted plastic grapes,
The harvest of a lifetime,
real bad wine.

The ground is shaking under my feet,
the World is turning,
and the
Wind has a friend in Misery...
But I know - she - only - loves - me...

X-Men Origins: Wolverine

"Last night, a stolen, incomplete and early version of X-Men Origins: Wolverine was posted illegally on a website. It was without many effects, had missing and unedited scenes and temporary sound and music. We immediately contacted the appropriate legal authorities and had it removed. We forensically mark our content so we can identify sources that make it available or download it. The source of the initial leak and any subsequent postings will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law – the courts have handed down significant criminal sentences for such acts in the past. The FBI and the MPAA also are actively investigating this crime. We are encouraged by the support of fansites condemning this illegal posting and pointing out that such theft undermines the enormous efforts of the filmmakers and actors, and above all, hurts the fans of the film." Yes, it did leak. Yes, it is a "crappy" version of the movie. Yet fans like me, and I believe I'm not alone out

Българи, къде сте?

Питала съм се този въпрос много през последната година и малко. Все си мислех, че в България има останали българи, които да уважават историята, миналото и изобщо всичко, което България претендира да е. Оказва се, обаче, че повечето от тези хора много отдавна не населяват територията на страната. Самата аз никога не съм била "националистка" до кой знае каква степен, но някак си, мисля, че е абсолютно нормално да обичаш страната, която ти е била/е дом. Нещо като генетично програмираното ти чувство на обич и уважение към родителите. Имам доста близък приятел, който, обратно на мен, е "националист" и донякъде споделям гледните му точки в много отношения. Вярно, той е доста по-краен в действията си - бие се, ходи на активни протести и всички останали неща, на които ние, простите хорица, гледаме с лошо око. Започвам да се питам дали това наистина не е единствения начин да спасим България. Негласно, българите сме роби отново. Роби на простотията, на комплексарщината, на по

The Dark Knight

Once upon a time in the far far away kingdom of Finland, there was a beautiful princess. Everyone were amazed by her voice and she had eyes like the purest mountain stream. All the young men in the kingdom wanted her as a wife, but the princess had a secret only her father knew. She was a he. Time went by and the princess had to get married. His father knew that no man would agree to take his son, so he locked him up in the tallest tower. The king had read many stories of how brave knights saved the princesses from high towers, so he placed a dragon to guard the princess. Word soon spread out across the kingdom and the bravest of knights shined their armor and traded for the best steeds. There was one amongst them that was different. He was a she. She had no experience whatsoever in dealing with dragons, but decided to try her luck just to prove she can be as tough as the men. She rode day and night for 4 days until she reached the tallest tower with the dragon guarding it. She took he
