egoism -
-
- The ethical doctrine that morality has its foundations in self-interest.
- The ethical belief that self-interest is the just and proper motive for all human conduct.
- Excessive preoccupation with one's own well-being and interests, usually accompanied by an inflated sense of self-importance.
- Egotism; conceit.
Always looking in a mirror and preening
Your vanity is beyond any compare
Always your job, your hobbies, your everything
Your interest in others is rare
No sacrifice is too great, no price too dear
As long as it feeds your love of self
Your egoism is your church and worship
One day you will realise it is so not good for your health.
Your vanity is beyond any compare
Always your job, your hobbies, your everything

No sacrifice is too great, no price too dear
As long as it feeds your love of self
Your egoism is your church and worship
One day you will realise it is so not good for your health.

Intuitive - known directly, without apparent thought or effort.
The senses we trust to keep us in tune
A touch can burn or it can caress
Sight and hearing give us the pleasures of
Art and music both joys of sweet tenderness
Smell and taste are both vital
Scents of flowers, tastes all so bittersweet
The inner sense that I should rely on most
Intuitive trust myself I know my challenges I shall meet
A touch can burn or it can caress
Sight and hearing give us the pleasures of
Art and music both joys of sweet tenderness
Smell and taste are both vital
Scents of flowers, tastes all so bittersweet
The inner sense that I should rely on most
Intuitive trust myself I know my challenges I shall meet

Williwaw - 1 a sudden gust of wind
2 a sudden violent wind
3 a violent commotion
The kids are screaming at each other again
"Give me back my ipod" yells one
So loud, its like a knife piercing the brain
The ipod found peace returns briefly to our home
All to soon the shouting starts once more
Constant bickering from morning til night is the scene
Its a war zone, an endless battle, a continuous williwaw
Oh the delights of being mum to a pair of teens
"Give me back my ipod" yells one
So loud, its like a knife piercing the brain
The ipod found peace returns briefly to our home
All to soon the shouting starts once more
Constant bickering from morning til night is the scene
Its a war zone, an endless battle, a continuous williwaw
Oh the delights of being mum to a pair of teens

Incompatible - chosen at random from dictionary
0 comments Posted by Jem Farmer at Friday, November 16, 2007Desire and lust were in control
Irrational urges, disregarding the reality
Logic went flying, fleeing from my brain
Satisfying my need, the only tranquility
Wrong so very wrong, believe you me
Nothing could change the one obvious fact
Like chalk and cheese, totally incompatible
It was all a dream, all a meaningless act
Irrational urges, disregarding the reality
Logic went flying, fleeing from my brain
Satisfying my need, the only tranquility
Wrong so very wrong, believe you me
Nothing could change the one obvious fact
Like chalk and cheese, totally incompatible
It was all a dream, all a meaningless act
