• Welcome to The Cave of Dragonflies forums, where the smallest bugs live alongside the strongest dragons.

    Guests are not able to post messages or even read certain areas of the forums. Now, that's boring, don't you think? Registration, on the other hand, is simple, completely free of charge, and does not require you to give out any personal information at all. As soon as you register, you can take part in some of the happy fun things at the forums such as posting messages, voting in polls, sending private messages to people and being told that this is where we drink tea and eat cod.

    Of course I'm not forcing you to do anything if you don't want to, but seriously, what have you got to lose? Five seconds of your life?

Tattered

she
I picture her in that very same tattered dress
The pale yellow one, riddled with tiny holes, like a colander
Shrouded in streetlight glow she looks like a dying star in an empty universe
I remember the leers and jeers of snotty brats with spotty faces
And I remember our mutual desire to flee the world, to take to the stars
To find a small planet to settle down on
I could build the robots and she could plant the trees
And I could grind the clockwork, fry the circuits, smash the machinery
When I realize it's just me, she's long since gone, or she was never there
And come death, I'd be all wires and buttons and gears
And I'd be riddled with holes
Like a colander
Like that yellow old thing...
