It is eighteen years ago, almost to the day –
A sunny day with leaves just turning,
The touch-lines new-ruled – since I watched you play
Your first game of football, then, like a satellite
Wrenched from its orbit, go drifting away
Behind a scatter of boys. I can see
You walking away from me towards the school
With the pathos of a half-fledged thing set free
Into a wilderness, the gait of one
Who finds no path where the path should be.
That hesitant figure, eddying away
Like a winged seed loosened from its parent stem,
Has something I never quite grasp to convey
About nature’s give-and-take – the small, the scorching
Ordeals which fire one’s irresolute clay.
I have had worse partings, but none that so
Gnaws at my mind still. Perhaps it is roughly
Saying what God alone could perfectly show –
How selfhood begins with a walking away,
And love is proved in the letting go.
This is a poem by C Day Lewis

Death creeps in like the moon steals glory from the sun.
Naturally with great ease we must succumb.
For when we learn that death consumes the sun,
We learn that life too must render herself weak,
just as the sun has before the moon.

A lot of folks ask me why "the filthy kids"?
"Well" I always reply, " I don't associate filth with dirt. For me, it's a feeling, an attitude - it's a lifestyle lived by the young and reckless, the foolish and fearless...it's who we are. We are young. We are filthy and we are inspired.

THE GREATEST SONG EVER WRITTEN...
There's a lady who's sure
All that glitters is gold
And she's buying a stairway to heaven
When she gets there she knows
If the stores are all closed
With a word she can get what she came for
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
And she's buying a stairway to heaven
There's a sign on the wall
But she wants to be sure
'Cause you know sometimes words have
Two meanings
In a tree by the brook
There's a songbird who sings
Sometimes all of our thoughts are
Misgiven
Ooh, it makes me wonder
Ooh, it makes me wonder
There's a feeling I get
When I look to the west
And my spirit is crying
For leaving
In my thoughts I have seen
Rings of smoke through the trees
And the voices of those
Who stand looking
Ooh, it makes me wonder
Ooh, it really makes me wonder
And it's whispered that soon
If we all call the tune
Then the piper will lead us to reason
And a new day will dawn
For those who stand long
And the forests will
Echo with laughter
Oh, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, ooh, whoa, oh
If there's a bustle in your hedgerow
Don't be alarmed now
It's just a spring clean
For the May queen
Yes, there are two paths you can go by
But in the long run
There's still time to change
The road you're on
And it makes me wonder
Aw, uh, oh
Your head is humming and it won't go
In case you don't know
The piper's calling you to join him
Dear lady, can you hear the wind blow?
And did you know
Your stairway lies on the whispering wind?
(Solo)
And as we wind on down the road
Our shadows taller than our soul
There walks a lady we all know
Who shines white light and wants to show
How everything still turns to gold
And if you listen very hard
The truth will come to you at last
When all are one and one is all
To be a rock and not to roll
And she's buying a stairway
To heaven...
Peace. Love. Happiness

MEET...
THE VAMPS BEHIND VAMP CLOTHING....
I HATE TO ADMIT THAT I DON'T KNOW MUCH ABOUT THIS BRAND EXCEPT THE OBVIOUS FACT THAT YOU HAVE TO GET YOUR HANDS ON THEIR GOODIES. THEY STOCK ALL SORTS OF ACCESSORIES SUCH AS NECKLACES, RINGS, SUNNIES AND EARINGS.
UNFORTUNATELY, THEY OPERATE IN CAPE TOWN, SO THE REST OF US ARE LEFT TO ADMIRE...
THANKS A LOT LADIES
