My head lies in her trembling arms

A warm redness engulfs her hands

A ray of light reflects off the metal object in the distance

Her chin quivers as the hatred flows through her body

He did this to me -- My Father -- Our Creator

The hand that soothed, was the hand that killed

Her melody was interrupted by his vengeful lusts

He fell...

If you can pronounce correctly every word in this poem, you will be speaking English better than 90% of the native English speakers in the world.

After trying the verses, a Frenchman said he’d prefer six months of hard labour to reading six lines aloud.

This ship is important to him

because somewhere in its lower depths

he hears the sound of his own breathing

as an engine clanking, clanking,

driving the ship on, all the gears grinding,

expenditure of force making

a hash of noise so that he cannot

hear himself think about her for more than a second

unless he looks beyond the shape of starlit waves

He tries to say, Stop. Stop talking, but can't,

and you can't and he's shaking his head,

sobbing. The trees blur into one green wall,

and you can't recall what it was

he'll get out. We'll never speak again.

You touch his thigh, and he doesn't move.

Everything sighs a little. What is this?...

How much do you know about your body?

I, for one, have had my body nearly my entire life and I have no idea how it works or why it does what it does, and more importantly, why it chooses to do what it does at formal dinner parties, in many cases.

The whole biology thing seems a bit complicated. The largest brains in our...

It isn't madness but shame for wanting

and shame for not having what I want,

which is a kind of madness -- drunk,

3 a.m., the stairwell too steep to climb.

I am in love
or so it seems
I have had many infatuations
or crushes
In the past many years.
I have fell in love
With my best of friends
Only, we were friends first.
My love for them never faded
It only grew
Grew into a relationship
That will last more than a lifetime
I knew we would always be friends
Nothing more
But,...
