Welcome

What lies below is not the realm of coherent sane thoughts of a 'Regular Joe' but the random ramblings of an individual with a voracious appetite for books and a chaotic, tangled jungle of grey cells for a brain that, while mostly dormant, is highly imaginative and suffers intermittent bouts of intense activity which result in... well, stuff like this blog. Scroll down at your own risk. You have been warned.

All I Ask

A little solitude, is all I ask
Yet it is not in loneliness I seek to bask.
Cheer and company I would desire
Yet it's hard when your hopes are afire.
So this wall I do erect,
Of apathy, yet,
Under this mask
All I ask
Is not for solitude but for
Someone to care.

-Attention seeking, that's the word that summaries this piece perfectly. It's a sad, horrid part of me that I do not like much, but I've accepted is part of my psyche (and needs to be purged). No one likes an attention seeking maniac, and hence I do try and control, yet my control is not absolute, and it does slip. Often.
