I am the Dragon,
and you call me insane!
You are privy
to a great becoming...
and you recognise nothing.

You are an ant
in the afterbirth.

It is in your nature
to do one thing correctly.

Before me, you rightly tremble.

But fear is not what you owe me,
Mr. Lounds.

You owe me awe.

My favourites!

"This isn't just a spoke in my menstrual cycle. "

and, not strictly a one-liner:

"You're sorta stuck where you are
But, in your dreams you can buy expensive cars,
or live on mars
and have it your way

And you hate your boss at your job
well in your dreams you can blow his head off
in your dreams
show no mercy

And all your bad days will end
And all your bad days will end
You have to sleep late when you can
And all your bad days will end"

(flaming lips)

Yep, you're right ! I forgot . . . as opposed to any general posting mishaps !

What happened was I had quoted myself instead of editing what I wanted to write . . . . D'oh !

An easy mistake, one might say ! Speaking of mistakes . . . . .
