A Word From The Foetus
'I'm warm and feeling safe
as I move around my room
everything is soft and gentle
inside my mother's womb.
I can tell that I am growing
as the time goes by, at pace
I've got little hands and feet
a tiny nose upon my face.
My heart I can hear beating
as the blood pumps through my veins,
I am aware of many things
and, I'm thinking with my brains.
I know the day is coming
when I will laugh and play;
and have a lot of fun
with my friends on my birthday.
What a time I'll have
as I grow up to be
that special kind of person
to that someone who'll love me.
'Oh, I'm feeling pain
is there nowhere I can hide?
my little hands have been cut off
by the scalpel that's in my side!
my legs are being torn apart
I'm screaming in my blood,
no one seems to hear me
as I drown in the flood.
Help me, oh please help me
they're cutting off my head;
I'll never have a birthday
because my now, I'm dead! '
'There is a gentle voice I hear
that says, 'I love you so'
and arms that hold me really close
a great peace overflows.
I'm not afraid, I've lots of friends
I have a 'brand new' home,
a place of love, joy and peace
I play before God's throne.'
Then a mighty voice does cry,
'Rest child at my Mount
'til my Day of Inquisition;
when someone will give account! ! '

I will never close the gap between who I am and who I want to be because "who I want to be" is a moving target.

We live in a world where art is to take a photo that looks like a drawing or make a drawing that looks like a photo.

Either we’re alone in the universe or we aren’t. Either possibility is mind-boggling.

When I was a kid I couldn't wait for all the stuff I could do as an adult. Now that I'm an adult I wish I could do all of the stuff I could do as a kid.

They should change the 'Last' button on tv remotes to a 'queue' button so I can cycle through three channels.

I would love to race around a large empty mall at night, in Go Karts with friends.
