Tornado Terror

2006-07-06T19:37:00.000-07:00

Tornado in Virginia this past weekend. Had no power, no AC, no heat so....just drove around a took pictures.
Car had ac so that's a plus.

Actually this fell on a car which of course got totalled. Not my car, never that.

Took me an hour in the rain to get this shot. I promise better ones in the future.

How about another sappy love poem. Its what I do best. Enjoy

Love at first sight

Like sunrise, that first light
How you feel before a new kiss
I was engulfed in its flames flight
Trying to fight off my stares

Quick like the spark of that first light
Faster than a passing second
In that moment it feels right
You didn’t know it would feel like heaven

It’s warm like that first light
Its fancy but not quite
The other will stare too
There must be the two of you

Like a dare to be free
Cause when it happens to you or me
Will we be strong enough to see
The spark of that first light,
That’s love at first sight

Great Falls

2006-06-18T19:59:00.000-07:00

A day at the Great Falls (Maryland side)

Nothing but rocks all day long!
The Billy Goat trail. They must have had some huge billy goats in their day because that trail is no joke.

Alright nothing but rocks and water!

I recommend checking this place out!!!

Your what I want


You're what I....
                     wish for in the morning
                     after yawning, after awwing
                     before coffee to feel you close
You're what I....
                     ask God for before bed
                     the last thought that's in my head
                     my first thought, you are foremost
You're what I....
                     need when I'm feelin low
                     you make me sad sometimes you know
                     because we'll never be this close
That's why I'm...
                     typing this stupid poem
                     it wouldn't be right, its wrong to say
                     what I need to say the most

Your'e what I want.

Bee Season (unsual)

The Wave
You're the wave
A presence that washes over me everyday
Complimented by the sun,
the sky, the unknown beyond
and when you rise
I give a moment to let my eyes
sparkle at a frame that explodes
before it dies
and when we're one
I'm having so much fun
as we wrestle
you're cool, sweet and soft
I'm mellow as I nestle in your palm
like an ice cube mixing it up
with a jar of honey
worth more than a wad of money
this ink speaks for me
like a wave to white paper
a wave to this white page

"Evil is morat at its heart-- the selection of vice over virture; you can pretend not to know, you can rationalize, but you know it in your conscience--
Evil is an act not an appetite...the apetite is normal.
Oh no, evil is repressing the appetite.
The real thing about evil... isn't any of what you said. You figure out one side of it -- the human side, say -- and the eternal side goes into shadow. Or vice versa. It's like the old saw: What does a dragon in its shell look like? Well non one can ever tell, for as soon as you break the shell to see, the dragon is no longer in its shell. The real disaster of this inquiry is that it is the nature of evil to be secret"

Quotes to think about :

"Because to influence a person is to give him one's own soul. He does not think his natural thoughts, or burn with his natural passions. His virtues are not real to him. His sins, if there are such things as sins, are borrowed. He becomes an echo of some one else's music, an actor of a part that has not been written for him. The aim of life is self development. To realize one's nautre perfectly that is what each of us is here for. People are afraid of themselves, nowadays. They have forgottn the highest of all duties, the duty that one owes to one's self. Of course they are charitable. They feed the hungry and clothe the beggar. But their own souls starve, and are naked. Courage has gone out of our race. Perhaps we never really had it. The terror of society, which is the basis of morals, the terror of God, which is the secret of religion these are the two things that govern us."

"The only way to get rid of a temptation is to yeild to it. Resist it, and your soul grows sick with longing for the things it has forbidden to itself, with desire for what its monstrous laws have made monstrouls and unlawful"

Taken from Oscar's Wilde's The Picture of Dorian Gray

Testaments

This is the two testaments

life is the two testaments
you wake up in the old testament
but sleep in the new testament
generations are each testament
waiting for a new testament
to a once known but forgotten meaning
experience is the old testament
our parents are old testaments
every regret or lesson learned are quotes from the old testament
youth are the new testaments
every idea is a new testament
hope and all emotion, with anger
that's new testament

....... born out of darkness
already warring with our brothers
corrupting our minds
we are just flooded with information
thinking means ignoring constant temptation
life is semi sensical with semi sensation
I'm laughing yet whincing at pain's penetration.

The Falling Dark

2006-03-02T16:50:00.000-08:00

The devil's tongue (don't ask but its a real plant)

Damn white witch!

The rain will last

no need to live in the past

what's not known will ever last

just focus

the noise is the way

we're right here

yet you wonder if it cares out there

what's not known will ever last

just focus

the noise is the way

whenever doubt surprise you

as it tries to hypnotize you

take this strength that stands beside you

cause our thoughts are loud at dark

you don't really need me to guide you

just a heart next to a heart

together this darkness will fall apart

the storm grows slow

your fear, lets me go

what's not known is never shown

focus

my noise is the way

nervous cries

are soothed when you see my eyes

what's not known we despise

focus

love is on the way

whenever doubt surprise you

that love it tries to deny you

take this strength, its right beside you

Its linger in the dark

you don't really need me to guide you

I'll just provide the spark

find your way out of the falling dark

"In the end, we will remember not the words of our enemies, but the silence of our friends."

Born of a king

an honor, they made it their name

he followed his father

but in a different way

you see first he made his mind strong

to inspire all the weak ones

then he made the fight strong

to keep his people speaking

soon he'd made his legs strong

cause freedom starts with movement

then he said, "you are strong"

we, his people knew it

a knife through nature

brought him back to nature

where is that king

that filled his court with dreamers

influence so remembered

an honor, we made him a day

Where I wish I could live?

To: You
Have a Happy New Year!
From: Panoramha

He's out there, somewhere........

Mean Streets

Crack'ed the street be
edgy and hilly
mountains surronding
a city beneath me
people move freely
cautious they will be
as they glide carefully
through the dark streets

All types of cultures
with different noise ruptures
favela type structures
litter the streets
The poor are rich here
where the rich disappear
only god knows or cares
the two classes rarely meet

The beautiful are coupled
with small baby feet
where so many strollers
end up crushing your feet
I go there for the family
of the one called "white teeth"
can't visit the libraries
because their stacks lack real meat
I meet strong willed people
that live with the weak
The nights can be quiet
but the poor do not sleep
because drugs sell themselves
everyday of the week

For a city so quiet
there is pain, rarely hides it
there on the street corners we buy it
surronded by mountains that hide it
very silent they riot
cause death is the pilot
on these city streets

Which city am I talking about? hmmm

Any me
Any me must think
Any me thinks too much
Any me everyday
but Any me just can't touch
and Any me cannot see
yet Any me feels flames
of Any mind that lives
in Any me's domain
Any me remains
every other's best friend
any me stays calm
yet any me won't win
those any hers that's out there
cause any she will know
what any me thinks about
as every day get old
Any me thinks too much
Any me is my enemy
but............

Any me, any you???? No clue why I wrote this.

A view from the top. Georgetown just a glance from where I work.

I have no idea what this is. I think its a ufo or paparazzi. Keep your eyes out.

Another view from the top near the Willard. Great place to take a loved one or a liked one. Or the person you're stalking! (Just kidding)

Final view from the Willard.

What's Happening Lately With:

Recommend Watching: Something the Lord Made, Ice Harvest (it will either make you laugh, or piss you off), Chronicles of Narnia (mainly for the kids), XX XY, Seeing Other People, and Harry Potter Goblet (action packed for kids)

Saw Pride and Prejudice and I loved it. Not because the movie was any good, although it was, but for Keira. It's over, that woman is fine. She was awesome in this movie. Great acting and great looking.
To Keira: Baby, if you're EVA in Alexandria, VA. Holla at ya boy.

NOW I have two missions in life.
1. To get a picture of a coyote. (Rock Creek Park)
2. And a picture of Kiera in person. (no clue how)

I gotta get that movie. Everyone else was good too.

we must ask why
the poor arise
they beg and despise
can't sleep, their cries
bleeds my ear and eyes
from this post to your eyes
act soon
watch as these words, diesssss

Some big mushrooms from Rock Creek Park. I mean huge, biggest ones I've ever seen. Went to the park and thought I would take a stroll. Heard they had coyotes and barely made back to my car. Check back for coyote picks, I've made that my mission while I'm in D.C.

One of the original choo, choo trains. Although I don't think they choo, choo. Reminds me of that scene from Back to the Future part 3 when Doc shows up in his time traveling train. If I could time travel I'd go back to those days when they actually put coke in Coca Cola. I'd also go to the high school jlo went to, ask her out, make her promise to marry me, get it in writing with her signature, come back to the present day and ...well you see where I'm going with this. For back up I'd do the same with Shakira, Tyra, Halle, maybe Beyonce, Tia and Tamara, Fariza balk (something about her excites and frightens me at the same time), Vida Guerra ... I could go on.

Epiphany

This life is a weapon I use against depression

I aim for the people who practice oppression

What's their obsession? They always question

maybe I'm different, unique, I sense you just preppin

They analyze this session cause my words give life's lessons

they won't get blessings if they steal what I've mentioned.

Each blog is pension for fans of my tension

Every post brings epiphany to those who lack attention

Angry with my info retention,

their mind is shut off (That's what I like to call mental detention)

they born with some kind of thought repression

mental defect, in truth the big G had 'em planned for rejection

Of me they're just a broken reflection

if they confront, they'll teeth my smith double wesson

illegal possession, that's how this began

don't practice depression, I welcome the end

One of the greatest, largest structures in the world. Highlight: the gargoyles.

Million more? How about thousand more. Had some great caribbean food which I couldn't afford. Not that is was expensive but I had no money on me at the time. Another opportunity to get my hands on beef patties lost.

What white teeth loves more than me! Seriously we were at the arbetoreum (spell check please) for hours and she barely left this spot.

A small taste of this great structure. If you want more you'll have to go there yourself. Clue: near the American University.

Don't get me wrong. I love Virginia and D.C. but some of the people here are not too bright. I'm no Albert Einstein but I realize we are living in an age where common sense is disappearing rapidly. For example almost every fast food place I have been to here I get questioned on my orders. I get questioned. "Why do you want barbecue sauce for your fries?" Who cares why I want barbecue sauce, I'm paying you. Get the damn barbecue sauce. And I get one pack. Also the Popeye's here has no mac and cheese. Did they get rid of mac and cheese. Please let me know.

Excited about:
-New job, working for a big time law firm. The possibilities...
-Xmen legends II (video game)
- Xmen Age of Apocalypse ( the graphic novel)
- the new Chris Rock show ( looks good to me)
-Graduation (only two more classes left)

Around the Eye

2005-09-07T20:30:00.000-07:00

This is the eye, we are all around it. Rough times ahead, what does it all mean. I find myself more and more worried for my people. I have nightmares about two things, the future and mice. What does it all mean?

Remember if you want to visit the white house contact your local representative to get tickets or a permission slip, one month in advance. Sucks

What can I say about my new home, still getting used to the place. Old town is beautiful but pricey. Yet I can't find a local or nearby jamaican beef patty place. The U.S. needs more beef patty places. A bunch of malls over here and "I'm loving it". Going through the job process right now. Its tough but I can't give up, well not until November strolls around. I just realized if I had kids they would be Domaicans. A new breed of man. A new threat to the administration. What does the future hold for them?

Rereading the Chronicles of Narnia. In honor of this I present Aslan after he created the world in The Magician's Nephew. Now that animals can talk he needs the peace and quiet.

Finale ( Virginia! A whole different degree of living)

2005-08-25T19:04:00.000-07:00

Well we have moved to Alexandria, Va and are trying to get use to this change. This area is very beautifully, quiet and relaxing, so far. I can't say we are staying in a great place but its not too bad. I was surprised by the amount of Latin Americans in this area which is not a bad thing. I am actually excited about experiencing all the different cultures in this area, I wonder what type of people I will meet here or make friends with. Being near D.C. is great but it has helped me realize how much I miss NY and will always call that city my true home. Hopefully I will find my way back there some day. Below is a picture of a park in Rochester, NY. It was one of the few parks I visited quite often and anyone visiting this site should visit this city. Not a great place for the young and active Rochester was a nice place to live and in some way I want to go back. Upstate N.Y. I believe is a great place for a road trip since there is so much to do that can fill up a two or three week vacation. Canada is right there so that is just more fun. To some degree Rochester will always be a place I can call my second home.

Recently I found out a friend of mine who I went to the University of Rochester with had passed away. We weren't really the best of friends but she was someone who I kind of felt close to only because we grew up in the same neighborhood. At some point in her youth she was caught in a fire and somewhat scarred to a degree. Although she was a nice person I always felt she was troubled with something either because of the accident or something else. Either way a light has been extinquished that should have been allowed to burn bright and I'm glad to have known her for the short time she was here. She was somewhat quiet and reserved at times but also very brave and rarely backed down from an opportunity to have fun while in school. I also never told her how sorry I was for a mistake made in the past but the last time I saw her we were on good terms so all i can say is rest in peace Keisha.

to be continued......

2005-08-12T02:01:00.000-07:00

Well, we're getting ready to move, should be out in 48 hours. I say D.C. but we're actually headed to alexandria, virginia. It is definitely weird moving to someplace new, I remember when I came to rochester for school I thought I would never get used to living here. It took about 6 years for me but I did get used to it. Before rochester I thought NYC was the place for me but through my travels within upstate ny and other places; I realize that I don't mind moving around. I don't think Alexandria will be my final resting place, although I could be wrong. I have my concerns but hopefully everything will work out fine. I'm closer to NYC than I was before so that is definitely exciting. I haven't seen some family members in about 7 or 8 months. May not be on for a while, or at least until I'm settled so to any visitors I hope you enjoy what you've seen so far but there is still more to come.

Chapter 5 (Home bound)

2005-08-02T13:00:00.000-07:00

Well If you hadn't guess it, we were in Toronto, Canada. Awesome place, had a good time. The pics of the past few posts are just a small sample of the hundreds of pics I took. Maybe more will be shown at a later time. The next post will be our goodbye to Rochester. Takes a while to get used to but not a bad place. Great place to visit during the summer and in the next post you'll see why. Heading to the District of Columbia in a few weeks. Hopefully everything will work out but if not I'll let you know. Feel free to comment, don't be shy.

What we won't miss about Rochester, NY. The cold times.

What we will miss? The good times.

"Live truth instead of professing it" ( by Elbert Hubbard)
I don't know the man but I live by the quote.
He also wrote, "Life is just one damned thing after another". Why? because its human nature.
Now how about a little truth.
I am still a coward, still a fake, and sometimes robotic in manner. I have alot of hate and anger that I hide with comedy. If there is a god (sometimes I'm not so sure) may he help me from exploding. I still live in this choas called bliss.
But I'm working on it.

Any ideas where this is?

Camelot?
Alcazar?
Edinburgh?
Tarascon?
Cahir?
Casa Loma?
Belvedere?

Beware dragon!!!!
Dogs just don't cut it for security these days.

It is near a city, not far from the downtown section. Awesome view, I would sooo live in this place if I could afford the rent.

Where will we go next time?

P.S. Moving to D.C., so all the people in the roc that want to get at me you have three weeks.

2005-07-10T19:48:00.000-07:00

Visited the ronto this past weekend. It was great. White teeth and I had a good time while managing to get on each other's nerves. Not an easy thing. Here's just a sample of the good times.

Either a lama or camel. No hump so it must be the former. No he's not sleeping, it was really bright that day.

The powerful, armoured rhino. It looks like the sewers but its a zoo. Nice place too. He bowed when he saw me because he recognizes royalty.

My favorite pic and species. The electric eel. Look at those eyes. Gangstaaa!!!

From left to right: my sister, her husband, husband's mom, my girlfriend. ( Yeah right like I'm gonna put their real names for all you sickos out there)

They live in the pitts where the mountains meet the city. Jazz and sports struggle on the streets.

Reading, PA, people go in but they don't come out.

Drowning in Darien Lake

Spent the July 4th weekend at six flags darien lake. Had a great time although I lost my glasses so the experience was mostly blurry. This ride to the right is the viper, not too scary but fast. I was able to get white teeth on this coaster at least but we mostly hung out at the waterpark.

This ride to the left is the infamous Superman. Its one of the largest in the northeast. Its one of those "get out of riding a rollar coaster free" ride. Once you've been on it you can say " well at least I tried the superman".

This one is the new ride called "tornado". Its freaky because you move in a tornado fashion around the big tube part. Happens quickly and I don't know if the first part is worse or the tube part. The wave pool is the best. Always apple opportunity to spy on some eye candy. I got a sweet tooth for eye candy.

You wish your teeth were that white.

Time for a new age to begin. People tend to neglect their ability to see, to visualize, to perceive. Reality is ignored where a de-ality is preferred. My eyes will become your eyes and maybe someday, you will see yourself.
