The village of sickle cell

Hi, I am really down trodden right now. Every time I come home from Mommy Pam and enter my room, I feel like a big mosquito is on my back sucking all my blood away. Sometimes I just close the door and walk away and forget that it looks that way. I've been doing that for quite a while. And it seems to work but deep down I know the mosquito is still sucking my blood. And soon the mosquito will drain me and then I'll clean up all the puddles and dirty bodies of water that attract and breed the mosquitoes. But then, my fellow in habitants won't watch their habits and they'll leave containers about and rain will fall and they won't think to use the water right away or get rid of the standing water. The will leave it and leave it and walk by it everyday. Even though I have instructed them and asked them to please not leave water standing in the open for more than a day because the mosquitoes will use it as their breeding ground. I have shown them by example what a mosquito bite can do but still they do not heed my pleas. Is it possible that I am the only one who suffers an adverse effect when bitten by a mosquito? Could it be that the others have developed some sort of immunity to the effects of a mosquito's bite? Do they all have sickle cell?! Oh, I see it must be so... They find that they can coexist with the mosquitoes. Ah, Alas! I cannot do as they do. I best be moving on from here.

Yours weakly,

Naul's Memory of the wind

Upon my first exposure to the video (on Mnet) with out subtitles, I thought: the guy in the uniform was a Japanese invader.  Japan was bombing Korea. ( I thought of this only because i remember Japan having to do something with bombs. Like Hiroshima; only I switched it around and Japan was doing the bombing. The guy and his daughter were playing and the bombs started approaching. He ran with his daughter but the bombs were faster and the guy in the uniform were getting closer. A bomb came really close and the guy used his body to shield his daughter. (Not really plausible seeing as the human body is not that strong.) Then the Japanese soldier was passing by and aw the little girl and had pity on her. then he ended up liking her so he married her. (Its very illogical because he doesn't age. And I doubt the little girl would have willingly agreed to marry someone whose race, nation help bring about her fathers death.) The Soldier is sexy jumping of his horse; maybe the reaso...

To see or not to see

UHM... So yesterday I think saw someone I didn't want to see; someone I thought would be long gone from my hemisphere. I didn't confirm the identity, but the familiar felling lurked about me like an eager dog. plus deductively if that person where still within this area, that is the most logical place to have seen them. So today I didn't see someone I wanted to see; someone who I intentionally try not to talk to because well: I am afraid I'm as clear as a newly purchased DWR Victoria Ghost Chair. Alas, life sent a recall in the form of exams and tings,... So I bid thee good day, until the next day. TYB

girl I once knew

I stand a hollow carcass of a girl I once thought myself to be. self sufficient and drive my insides teem with unending waves of darkness. light  has no chance here in this shadow land for the shadows have engulfed the thing itself there remains nothing to shed light upon the shade takes pleasure in imbibing any light that dares to come for the girl I once knew the girl I so desire to be the girl who is gone that girl has become the shadow and the shadows become her the only end to this ...  a darker shadow enveloping the entire existence. Then, somewhere in time and space that girl can, once more, be...; I know I make it hard to do but,... Stay bubbly! TYB
