Do you pay any attention to how your friends have titled their journals? I went through, selected, and compiled them, then strung these poetic little phrases into a poem.


Do you remember what you came here for:
Green tea & Rock and Roll,
The convictions of a monkey's mind,
Liberty for All?
What conspiracy theories?

Speak, I'm listening ~
the maddening musings of a misunderstood mind,
the babbling of a not very tortured soul,
Incoherent ramblings
Powered by paranoias,
Fluff, flowers, and verbosity;
Your life can be used as a bad example to others.

Where the rivers meet,
All the lights are blinding;
The trees are singing water.
Between a rock and a hard place
a Sanctuary of darkness;
Raw wonders
in this other corner of the web.

Let me tell you about my boat
Because for some reason, you want to know me

I'm innocent, by standards.
I am your Painted Whore.
If you let me... I will change your world
One day I'll be famous... I hope
Sunglasses help.
Time to move on.

My assault on the world begins now
The reluctant nomad
on Journeys through writing
Making love to language
Sudden inspiration.
Scratched into the door,
a Chronicle of a life measured out in coffee spoons.
Peace found here ~
Sometimes you have it, sometimes you don't
...

Nifty.

Mine got changed as a reaction to irishninja's friends-page title. It used to be Words of the Wise. Which made me think of lines from a song:

Do you remember what you came here for?
Her words of wisdom scratched into the door.

I hadn't realized that he had changed it. I guess we're not wise anymore. Phoo.

The cool thing about doing this was that I was taking notice of something that had a lot of meaning to the particular journaler but was enigmantic to me. I love that. I really had a powerful upswelling of love for my LJ friends during the excercise.

nice. i think my subtitle wasn't in place until after you wrote that day about choosing to walk home in the rain.

I always enjoy the changing nature of your percentage, too.

this is funny, because i was going to change my title and subtitle today, but then i forgot what i wanted to change them to. now i'm glad i didn't, because then this would have turned out differently, and i like it the way it is now.

Whoo! Absolutely beautimous.

[butterflydrming.livejournal.com]

Thank you, m'dear. When ever am I going to see you again?

[amheriksha.livejournal.com]

Well, if you are going to the AnnaCon party, I'll be there. If not, I WILL be home for Thanksgiving week. ^ ^

We should totally do something though. I miss you Seattlites!

Oh, how nice! :)

[butterflydrming.livejournal.com]

Thanks! This was fun for me. I know yours changed, and I can't remember what it used to be.

[laurus-nobilis.livejournal.com]

It must have been something from an Enya song, but I can't remember which one now...

[lilac-wine.livejournal.com]

Lovely!

[butterflydrming.livejournal.com]

Danke. Yours was one of the easy ones. I wish that I could have used both parts.
