Mindless and Lost?

If there was another moment in time, somewhere far away in another space, where the mind would flow like an avalanche crushing thoughts of negativity and paranoia rocking your world, doubting your reality, lost in thought like a ship lost at sea, searching for a recluse from the rough seas of uncertainty and powerlessnes, dipping and rising in the light of the blood moon, pretending to show the way out the maze in which you are trapped caused by the fear of history repeating leaving you on the edge of something so big but you are afraid to jump, deep into the ocean of thoughtlessness under the rough waves of despair, attaining a certain peace of mind and finding love not for someone else but for yourself feeling the power of stark realization knowing who you are and why you are here, illuminating where you have to go.........

would you go there?

Madness at Munich

When will people ever learn to be respectful to other people in public places??? This morning I went to Munich at Majestic Cinema, and within the first 15 minutes 4 celluar phones rang loudly in the auditorium followed by "Machang I'm at a movie, what's up?" Whats up????????????????????? I'd love to know what's up.. of all the million place to make calls, during a movie is probably the dumbest time and place. The management should now come up with new rules banishing patrons who insist on having their ringers on loudly and carrying on in conversation much to the anger of others. Yes some people HAVE TO have thier phones on no matter what, but, that's what silent mode is for surely R & D scientist's who work mobile manufacturers had a simple purpose for that feature. And what is it with most Sri Lankans and seeing nudity on screen, the minute someone turns nude on a big screen, cajoling begins, crass humor and other side of the spectrum loud audible gasps of embaressment. Who will liberate our repressed society?
But apart from the unwanted added features the movie Munich in itself is extremely good showcasing powerful emotions of anger, remorse, regret and revenge. Pity it was wasted on a hall filled mostly by monkeys who failed at evolving.

Dark Glasses

Dark Glasses.

As I look at the masses through my dark tinted glasses,
I realize, that in life the world is full of arses.
Twisting from left to right, turning from right to left,
Always looking for someone to use as a step.

When will it end? How soon will they go?
And disappear in chasms way down below.
How long does one suffer? How far does one go?
Is there really an “end of the road”?

Uncertainty whistles past my ear,
Opportunity’s knock never comes around here,
Behind dark glasses as I wishfully think,
The dark world around me slowly begins to sink.

It's all gone Pete Tong

What is it with club goers in Sri Lanka and their insistance in listening to the same hacked out songs over over and over again, for eg. 'Summer Of 69' by Bryan Adams. Last night a Dj saved my life....... now I'm kidding last night I was Djing at a popular bar in Colombo and it amazes me how when you drop some fresh music everyone sits around and stares deeply into eachothers eyes but play some horrid Santana remix and woosh the party's started. WAKE UP COLOMBO AND HEAR THE CALL OF PROGRESS.

Work Blues

Work Blues

As I sit in my prison and look out the bars
I dream about hot bikes and fast fancy cars
I dream about days when I danced in the sun
And replaced my worries with cold coke and rum
I dreamed about times on hikkaduwa beach
Far away from it all completely out of reach
I dreamed about rolling really strong smurf
As I watched young adventurers tackle the surf
I dream about days on a cold mountain top
A superb excuse for indulging in grog
I dream about languidly laying on hill
And feeling the early evening high altitude chill

The suddenly I remember and it brings me down
The fact that I’m dreaming and still in the town
Traffic below me screams with a horrendous roar
Through walls windows and under the doors
I rush and I rant, go completely insane
I’m tired of this rat race can’t stand the game
I try to retract to my make believe world
When I was dreaming of pina coladas and sun tan covered girls.

Sigh!!!!

Damn Electricity Companies

Is'nt there some way for people to do something about these random power outages during the day? Is'nt it bad for electrical appliances?
