Hope you enjoy this...
Und nun, liebe kinder, gebt fein acht: Die wahrheit wird zu sand gemacht! ...Den streut man jenen in die Augen die niemals fragen- alles glauben... Die volle wahrheit zu ertragen steht jenen an die Fragen fragen- Nur dem der sie zu stellen wagt: Und Gott hilf dem der Fragen fragt! (My children- come and see this land were truth has long since turned to sand which wind will blow into the eyes of those who never question lies... The truth to bear is for those men who dare to question- and who then make asking their most pressing task: And God help those who dare to ask...) W.J.B All material marked "W. J. B" is my own; anyone wanting to make use of this- feel free to do so (except commercial use, that is); just don't remove the "W.J.B", please. -Devilsadvocate- This post has been edited by Devilsadvocate: Oct 6 2007, 11:36 AM |

I was sitting over there
on the stair, thinking, "what should I care"? I was quite unaware that nearby was a BEAR! He was looking to eat. I probably looked like a treat, sitting there on the stair... being watched by the BEAR! Who s' apatite it was fair and beady eyes were a-glare. He arose from his lair and so I quickly left there, and went elsewhere... To ponder on my narrow escape... Glad to be alive and not--- ate. lunk |
