The truth of the matter is that there are some people I know. There are some people I get to know, not in the sense of "getting to know you" but in the sense of I get to know them as in it's something I get to do.

I've had my share of life's ups and downs
But fate's been kind, the downs have been few
I guess you could say that I've been lucky
Well, I guess you could say that it's all because of you

If anyone should ever write my life story
For whatever reason there might be
Ooo, you'll be there between each line of pain and glory
'Cause you're the best thing that ever happened to me
Ah, you're the best thing that ever happened to me

Oh, there have been times when times were hard
But always somehow I made it, I made it through
'Cause for every moment that I've spent hurting
There was a moment that I spent, ah, just loving you

If anyone should ever write my life story
For whatever reason there might be
Oh, you'll be there between each line of pain and glory
'Cause you're the best thing that ever happened to me
Oh, you're the best thing that ever happened to me
I know, you're the best thing, oh, that ever happened to me

They all sat staring..
Their eyes full of distaste..
As she crawled away from where she once felt safe..
Before the price of her love put it's curse on her face...
And as her memories fade, with animal instincts replaced..
She has one last thought..her heart empty of disgrace...
"I'm glad my time is done among this cruel human race.."

"Don't Let It Bring You Down"

Old man lying
by the side of the road
With the lorries rolling by,
Blue moon sinking
from the weight of the load
And the building scrape the sky,
Cold wind ripping
down the allay at dawn
And the morning paper flies,
Dead man lying
by the side of the road
With the daylight in his eyes.

Don't let it bring you down
It's only castles burning,
Find someone who's turning
And you will come around.

Blind man running
through the light
of the night
With an answer in his hand,
Come on down
to the river of sight
And you can really understand,
Red lights flashing
through the window
in the rain,
Can you hear the sirens moan?
White cane lying
in a gutter in the lane,
If you're walking home alone.

Don't let it bring you down
It's only castles burning,
Just find someone who's turning
And you will come around.

Don't let it bring you down
It's only castles burning,
Just find someone who's turning
And you will come around.

Angel wings broken..
I can hear you cry..
Falling through space..
From way up high..
With stars as your lights...
And clouds as your bed..
One thought runs through my head...
If one such as you can fall from his grace..
What spot could I hold in a heavenly place..
Never fear my child..
comes a voice as soft as a sigh...
Open your heart to me..
and i will lift you up high..
It's your's..I say...
with tears on my face..
and he took me to live..
beyond the Pearly Gates...

Pose for me. Pose for me while I smoke and contemplate the lines, the shadows and light. Pose for me while I hide my fear of fucking it up.

Do you wanna be an angel
Do you wanna be a star
Do you wanna play some magic
On my guitar
Do you wanna be a poet
Do you wanna be my string
You could be anything

Do you wanna be the lover of another undercover
You could even be the
Man on the moon

Do you wanna be the player
Do you wanna be the string
Let me tell you something
It just dont mean a thing

You see it really doesnt matter
When youre buried in disguise
By the dark glass on your eyes
Though your flesh has crystallised
Still...you turn me on

Do you wanna be the pillow
Where I lay my head
Do you wanna be the feathers
Lying on my bed
Do you wanna be the cover
Of a magazine
Create a scene

Every day a little sadder
A little madder
Someone get me a ladder

Do you wanna be the singer
Do you wanna be the song
Let me tell you something
You just couldnt be more wrong

You see I really have to tell you
That it all gets so intense
From my experience
It just doesnt seem to make sense
Still...you turn me on

Soon oh soon the light
Pass within and soothe the endless night
And wait here for you
Our reason to be here

Soon oh soon the time
All we move to gain will reach and calm
Our heart is open
Our reason to be here

Long ago, set into rhyme

Soon oh soon the light
Ours to shape for all time, ours the right
The sun will lead us
Our reason to be here
The sun will lead us
Our reason to be here

Squinting to get rid of the distracting details, large strokes of bold color. Bringing weight and form with light and shadow, no details yet, arrangement, arrangement. How should this feel, what am I after? The light, the light. Now a little more detail, the eye. The sliver of intense light through the cornea at this angle is perfect...

Staring off into the distance..comfortable..like my whole life has led up to this one moment ..of me..posing for you..and i say.."do as you will"..

Axil62 (Aug 18, 2009)
Smoke curls from the stub of cigarette that I've forgotten is still lodged firmly between two fingers. The room becomes a little more hazy as the sunlight streams through it and on to your form. I drop the stub and without thinking I grab a new smoke and put it between my lips, a few more strokes and I light up again...it's going well, I'm getting excited, it's looking like it should. I remind myself not to go to far, not to ruin it with unimportant details that would only serve to muddle things up.. but still, there need to be more just here...almost...almost
  icon
backmagicwoman (Aug 18, 2009)
I am breathless now..careful not to move..lest you lose the moment...
Trying not to quiver with anticipation...wondering what your doing...
Knowing this is my one chance to be the most beautiful woman in the world..
and to be forever in your debt..that you thought enough of me to do this one thing...
To immortalize me in the prime of my beauty..and i know it will be amazing because you are the most amazing artist I have ever known...and wondering how can i ever repay you..

are you two talking about the same experience? lol...I need a cold shower, bmw.

backmagicwoman (Aug 18, 2009)
i'm pretty sure i am gonna need a smoke later Miss DJ...
  icon
Miss_DJ (Aug 18, 2009)
no doubt! haha....
I stopped smoking 20 yrs ago...only to find out 6 or so years ago that I have the beginning of Emphysema. Apparently, if I don't smoke again, it won't kill me, but I take 2nd hand smoke much more seriously now. So, I guess I can't pose in person for Dan unless he draws smoke free. But, you kids have fun. Sounds like a movie....i'm gonna go get some popcorn...

with a touch of crimson to the cheek it is done. I stand erect and step back to look again. I drop my brush and as I hear it's metallic ferrule hit the hardwood I know that you know what we've been waiting for. For the painting to be done, for the moment before we touch, that moment of uncertain tension. Is this really why were here today? Just for you to pose and I to paint?
  icon
Miss_DJ (edited Aug 18, 2009)
somehow I feel like I should leave the room now, and quietly close the door behind me.....

ps..GOD I miss uncertain tension.
  icon
backmagicwoman (edited Aug 18, 2009)
I know the moment when you are done ....my breath expels in a rush...my heartbeat a flutter in the hollow of my throat...a few stray hairs pasted to my face with the sweat of the moment...
I stand to appraoch you and see your masterpiece..our masterpiece..and as you touch my face..no words need to pass between us..you are the most beautiful man I have ever seen..and all of a sudden I am scared..my breath coming in little puffs..did I know when I came here it would lead to this..? Or is this the reason that I came?....

Axil62 (edited Aug 18, 2009)
Sudden piercing shrill, confusion, darkness, eyes blurred...what's this? Where am... the alarm, my crisp sheets, I reach and slap the button to stop the alarm. Breathing heavily in the dark a cool breeze wafts over my sweat soaked chest. It was a dream. I close my eyes desperate to find my way back to slumber for a chance to get back to that room, that woman, that painting... it's no use, I'm awake now. Awake and haunted in the dark by something that never was but will always be. I fumble for a smoke and light up in the dark, the smoke curls upward and the room becomes hazy, but this time there is no light.

Miss_DJ (edited Aug 18, 2009)
nice way to zip that all up, Dan....lol

Flubbles..what a choice to make. I'd go for Valkyrie if I were you...Revolutionary Road if I were me

backmagicwoman (Aug 18, 2009)
I am walking away..I take one backwards look up at your window as I hear the shrill sound of your alarm and know that you will only remember me as a dream.. but I have my painting and will always remember you as the man who changed me forever....then I drift away down the sidewalk like so much smoke on the wind....

lori (Aug 19, 2009)
back to the very first thing you said Dan, ....and some people make you think everyone ought to know you....... kejoco.. who knows what bird is goin' where, which reminds me, I gotta go feed the birds, and find a new place for all the seed.. we got mice comin' after the seed.. so now we got bird babies AND mouse babies here and they all got their mouths open, along with the cats and dog.. and lastly, I don't like presumptious people much and that's not about anyone in particular, that's a general statement that I thought I'd get out of my brain 'cause it's been stuck there for a while

I'm just gonna take a wild guess here, kejoco, but I would bet money the bird was flyin high last night...lol
