A/N: Caaaaaake.</i>
A/N: Caaaaaake.</i>
On Danny's song suggestion, an English version of Yui Makino's Synchronicity. (Tokyo Tsubasa Chronicles) It's a very pretty song, but the lines tended to be pretty long. XD I followed the translation/meaning of the song a lot more closely than for Taishou.A, for which I admit I took quite a few liberties. I'm not sure whether I like what I've written. It seems rather unwieldy. XD There's one line/stanza that's my favourite though..:) See if you can spot it, heh.
I'm not sure yet if I'm gonna sing this. ._. The key is so sadly completely wrong. :/

A/N: Will probably record this tomorrow. :) Based on the ending theme for Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Kai -- anNina's Taishou.. Working off translation courtesy of atashi via gendou. There's some obscure rhyme pattern somewhere there (see if you can spot them. :P)..but the original song didn't -really- rhyme. I wish I understood more Japanese (or actually understood some Japanese :P) so I could do this better, but ah well.

Like the title says. SO UNINSPIRED. :( I did have an idea for (yet another) Sirius/Bella while listening to Mad World today, though..let's see how that turns out.

Damn, second time writing this out because Firefox crashed and erased my first attempt..-cries- In any case, this one is based off of Lawrence's translation of lyrics posted by Kai on a forum..."It had started being warped from sometime? It is protected in hypocrisy and lie? Something you lose in the degree which exchanges pain doing the inclination which is not known You closing mind, the る? Or me closing, the る? If the thinking which it turns over on you you lose, it does not go out to being good about you ask overflowing, about it is broken seeking sky, you who would like to go out from the 此 place the heart which is thought even then as for me being utilized, the く"
I thought it just had too many emo ideas for me to pass off converting it to a slightly more coherent form. ;) The last line is courtesy of Misa. I'd just finished watching the second Death Note movie..

A/N: I know this poem sounds pretty dismal...but I'm actually in the opposite mood at the moment. Slightly amused. So I'm not quite certain why it came out. I do know, though, that I was inspired by 飘雪, that beautiful Cantonese song. And in the bathroom I thought "dreamlike lunacy" was a nice phrase to write around. XD

A/N: Somehow I feel like the last stanza doesn't quite seem to fit..but after all, this's supposed to be a Valentine's Poem. So, yup...a bit of a blush-inducing one, it's written from the POV of a guy who likes looking at...ahem...well-drawn liquid in manga as much as I do. :P This's the poem accompanying a bowl of fudge in a pretty hand-made bowl in shades of purple, a fuzzy teddy bear holding the usual tacky heart, and a sapphire jewelry box, the V Day gifts prepared by him for her.

A/N: New Year poem, since I wrote a Christmas one in 2005. :) From Sirius Black's point of view, but the last bit is to everyone.

A/N: Finally a piece I actually like. For those who haven't read/watched Chobits, this is inspired by a reflection from the point of view of Freya - a persocom created to be capable of loving. She fell in love with her creator - her father. Out of guilt and self-recrimination, (he was married, so she felt like she was betraying her mother) she went into hiding, placing her virtual self into her sister (Elda) to watch over her as she found the one she loved. I extrapolated it so that she chooses to disappear in the end, satisfied that Elda has found love. And, yes, the first line is from Vladimir Nabokov's Pale Fire, which I'll read when I have the time.
And yes, this is a cookie for Jo, who played in my Join the Concepts. Hope it doesn't disappoint, Jo. :)

A/N: I was inspired by my own msn nick (Weeks morph into months, and again, nothing. It referred to my extended stay at SG, from a week to a month. :) And nothing is, of course, what I do nowadays. -sighs- )- resulted in one of my only serious rhyming poems. There is no actual point to this poem, if the protagonist is telling the truth. Can you find out why? Stanza in brackets replaced by the one preceding it, from Jo's suggestion. :) Changed the last part too, but I'm not too sure whether it works..

A/N: An expression of Dan Brown’s Da Vinci Code. Includes references to that fibonacci sequence mentioned in the book, Phi, Mona Lisa, and the Last Supper. Also a translation of Jian Mi Li’s Da Vinci Code, half of which is, frankly, in bad English. Hopefully I’ve improved that with my translation, which, besides from the last rap-like part, should be able to be sung in tandem to the original. :)

A/N: Revised for flow, original lines are in italicised brackets. Don't laugh at me too much for my first spoof. :D It's simple and not very different from the original (I didn't spend much time on it either) but I think it turned out alright. Inspiration for this is attributed to Kori, who is currently (and for at least seventy days more, the poor chap) q-sitting. It's also dedicated to all the people who q-sit at the Watchmen Leaf/Tree. (which is, after all, where the title for this spoof is derived from) You can even listen to me singing this. -blushes- Though I recorded it the first time I ran through it, and I neglected to push the key one up so I can't quite reach the low notes. I'm singing along to the .kar file, which's the reason it sounds so..midi. But as always, please do comment!

Written for a writing.com contest, with the prompt, "Write a poem mentioning one of the months." (Or something like that.) I thought it curious no one had yet mentioned May-December romances, so here it is. I've always felt May was too understated; people naturally assume the younger is the more submissive, yet this isn't always true.

A/N: In response to an article in ST about some haiku writer who came to Singapore, and was asked to come up with a haiku about the country on the spot. She faltered and made an excuse about there being no seasons here -- and she says she's a "modern haiku writer". (i.e. one who doesn't only focus on nature in themes of their haikus) Although I'm a doubtful Singaporean, with my citizenships, I remain proud of our country. And yes, if you look closely at the time this was written, you'll realise I did this in the exam hall. -grins- I think it was Bio, but I can't be certain. Anyone remembers?
