Happy new year everyone!

That was a pretty epic show last night - was anybody out and about taking pictures? If you were we want them! Submit them to the group and you might even get a feature in the next blog! ;)

Time flies!

Tue Dec 13, 2011, 6:48 PM by `AaronBradford:iconAaronBradford:


Hey all!

Time sure does fly. It's already December and we haven't met or organised anything in ages. Unfortunately I personally can't commit to anything just yet, but a reminder to everyone that if you are thinking about organising a meet please let us know so we can put the word out there for you. :)

Hope everyone's enjoying (or will enjoy) their holidays! :dance:

Port Arthur Young man just nineteen,
Living a hard life in Eire,
Stole two fine horses.

Punishment was harsh:
Sentenced to be transported
To Van Diemen's Land.

Seven months at sea,
Rough waves and no single chance
Of going back home.

On dry land again,
But in a place so foreign,
His prison for life.

Agony erupts,
How will that poor bastard cope
In Port Arthur's walls?

Day in and day out,
Isolated from freedom
And the outside world.

By daylight, no friends,
Mask can't hide his own despair,
Silence all day round.

By night, more heartbreak:
Stone wall cell, hard bed, cold air,
Moonlight cannot calm.

Six months have passed by,
More dPort Arthur by =BrendanR85
6 O'Clock Rush Just gone five-forty,
Return ticket in pocket,
Will the train be late?

Station's sound system
Says "Next train arriving now,
an all-stations service."

Train slows down and stops,
Doors open, lots of people
Scramble to get out.

Once the coast is clear,
Into the carriage I dash,
The guard's whistle blows.

Not much time to sit,
Reading the latest news bites
And sudoku too.

Just ten minutes pass,
Arriving at my home town,
Disembarking time.

Standing at the doors,
More people gather to leave,
And so impatiently.

Train is slowing down,
I pray I get out quickly,
As the doors open.

Just on six o'clock
Dashing across the platf6 O'Clock Rush by =BrendanR85
What are you thinking of? What are you thinking of?

Of beaches and ice-creams and waves and the sand
Of kissing and touching and holding your hand
Of hoping and dreaming and singing a song
Nobody knows but can all hum along.

Of dancing and playing and holding a mask
Watching through eye-slits I dare you to ask
What do I think of and what do you care
See through these words, that's what I dare.

Of red ink and black ink and a pencil marked page
Poems and drawings showing their age
Of changing and moving and letting go
Of dreams and wounds and things that I know.

I am thinking of.What are you thinking of? by *CarolineCherry
lovesongs there's music in my heartbeat
and harmony in yours
each pulse a song
that you and i
can hear and hum along
it doesn't matter if we're out of tune
the melody is ours
each breath we take
each sound we make
is 'i love you', softly croonedlovesongs by *CarolineCherry

Never Forget Me I am standing there right beside you while you are laying down on your bed silently crying to yourself blaming it all on you, even though you do not know I am there I am watching you silently, you turn around looking straight at me even though you cannot see me, I'm trying to tell you that it isn't your fault, you shouldn't blame yourself although you cannot see me I am standing there right in front of you, you know I am watching over you, and I always will, I will never leave you. Never.

You have the urge to cut yourself, you have the urge to self harm, I know you do, you know you do, but you have to fight it, hurting yourself never did anyNever Forget Me by ~absentbrain
Angels - An Excerpt  In the bed nearest to the closed window of the women's dorm of the Winged Scout HQ Kiori, a tiny woman of just twenty, stirred fitfully in her sleep. From the back of her neck under the tangled black fall of her hair snaked a cluster of wires leading to the blocky machine at her bedside whose small screen showed the time – 5:42AM – and the slowly flashing words "DREAM RECORDING IN PROGRESS".

Kiori stands on the porch of the old school and watches the children play in the yard, tossing a ball from hand to hand; running and shouting and tripping and laughing as children do. The buildings loom tall and threatening over the children Angels - An Excerpt by *CarolineCherry
Knowing you Bend your neck; let my lips taste that pale silk so easily pierced. It barely hides the vast ocean of red that runs through flesh and veins alike, slowly rushing under the thin veil of white to tint your face. Such a beautiful face, your eyes flutter closed, putting up your mask. Without the sight of such deep wells I am left with only a shallow pool with which to try and dive into your innermost feelings.  

Do you feel excitement? Anticipation, as my fingers trace your alabaster skin, so soft to touch. Is it embarrassment? You have melted in my hands, shown me the missing link in your otherwise impenetrable armour. Oh proud and caKnowing you by ~forgotten-by-nature

Heys, since we're all SydneySyders, just thought i'd share with you guys this interesting blog about a famous innerwest suburb: [link]

This asian culture-rich suburb has a long history of immigration that began with europeans and then asians. You might find that the place will be able to inspire your next piece of Art!
