~Portrait~
I looked into my mirror and what did I see,
I saw a man that looked like me.
I said, 'Hello,' 'Hello,' said he,
Be I you or be you me?
If I be you and you be me,
Then who's face is that a looking at me.
I shaved myself and what do you know,
He did the same, The So and So.
This trick of his, is getting me down,
I'm beginning to think that he's a clown.
One more look just to see,
Be that him or be that me.
If that's him, I know what to do,
I'll hit the mirror with my shoe.
If it breaks, It's just as well,
For that face of his, is giving me hell.

if i was embarrased i'd admit it, but i don't really give a shit about any
nationality, as far as i can see every country in the world is lead by
idiots and is majoritively filled with people who vote the idiots in,
this country is filled with boring idiots as much as america is filled with
self-righteous idiots
don't tell me, you're one of them "i'm proud of my country" nonses,
poor fool

and the bbc?? what's that got to do with me, i don't understand, the're all
abunch of self interested fools, the royle family's cool though
>i take it you don't read much, right glen?
i read a hell of a lot actually, but i don't suppose psychology, mythology,
ancient texts and quatum physics interests you too much does it?

about the only country i don't like is France, and there i'm justified in my
feelings.

yeah. i figured if the UK got really dumb really quick, i would have heard
something via the BBC website. maybe they haven't picked up that story yet?

um, yeah, whatever you say.
we don't have a royal family, except for the Mansons.

embarrasment is a strong feeling, like humiliation, i wouldn't miss
something like that, and whether anyone does here i don't reallly care
about, but me telling you that means nothing as you're not my feelings......

"you" have justified yourself in your feelings, i find them to be an overly
passionate race who make astounding art, especially films by olivier
assayas, jean luc goddard and the rest of the avant-garde film-documentary
crew......

i wasn't talking about the royal famliy, i was talking about the royle
family,
if you're visiting the bbc website like you say you are it will tell you
what they are somewhere i expect, as it's their production.......

no i don't, i've got a countless amount of free poems by looking on the web,
and i get to talk to them too,
rather than waste money and paper on make believe, which i'll waste my
imagination on instead of thinking my make believe is my opinion and reading
so called "great pieces of art work" that are now old and out of date.....
