I was schooled in the finest academies
yet dismissed everything I was taught,
For the studious life is too serious
and the lifespan of man is too short.
If you argue that this will confound you
or that progress would never begin,
Just open your eyes, look around you
observe the sad world we live in.

However the posts can often get dumb.
This one ain't bad compared to the rest,
But I think that gavcarocom's threads are the best ;)

I often get mad with some of the views
But have to remember, our right to choose.
Whether we are turkish or greek or another nation,
We should try and respect not vent our frustration.

There once was a fine man from Surrey,
But visitors had reason to worry,
Near the house there are foxes,
And inside; many boxes,
Some of which contain Sainsbury's curry!

(It might not mean anything to you, but to some of our dear readers it will probably make perfect sense ;))

Natty, Eliko and free Cyprus I liked a lot. Good one.

Sorry the rest of you……Must try harder.



I have never met a camel
That hasn’t got the hump
Why they have to be so miserable
Always leaves me stumped.

Straight from the heart mrfromng....Touching :cry:








This is for Eleni and Andri.


I am burning with love
For a little girl I’ve not met
Though sadness engulfs me
I’m not beaten yet
I view my computer
And send hope down the line
I sit with her mother
As if she were mine
I wipe away tears
That will eventually fall
Knowing a forum of people
Will still be on call

Oh, how I wish I could write a poem
How I wish I could put words together
and make them rhyme
I guess I just don't know how to and haven't got the time

Zan BK Natty and the others can do it
when it comes to me I just ruin it
its difficult finding the right words
especially for me hanging out with Turks

I'm paying the price for bunking off school
my dad used yo say "you are a fool"
girls drugs and clubs were my priority
I thought the world was my oyster and I was cool

This will be my first and last attempt
some may say don't give up just yet
I really don't see the point in poems
they do nothing for me so...... fuck that
