So yea ive fucked up my second year of college pretty much.....i just can't get my shit together...i have no idea where im going or where i want to go..yay.
Ok where do i start, well first off i went for the interview last week for subway, that went well. I got a phone call the other day to say that i had been selected for a group selection with asda, i really want the job with asda as i have worked with them before and they are a good company to be with, plus when i become a student i need for them to be flexible for me as, i will need to have my hours cut, subway will not be able to do that, well least i don't think they will. Now the fun begins, i got a phone call yesterday from subway, saying that the manager would like to meet up with me, to make her final decison, i said that was fine and i agreed to meet her today. I thought about it for a quite a while and thought, i am going to phone them back and and say to them can i meet up on the wednesday instead,(to buy me more time with asda,) as with subway they are wanting someone to start straight away. as she did orginally say wednesday, or the monday, but i picked the monday as she did not tell me what time on the wednesday, the wednesday is when i have my group selection with asda, but the group selection is not until late afternoon, the subway meeting is early morning. When i phoned subway up today saying that i could not make it today, the manager was fine with me but said that she was going to make her mind up today, but cos i am there top choice, she said that she will hold off until she sees me, the job thats available is 35hrs, which is great! It is just such a mess, arghhhhhh!!, what do i do? do i take the job in subway and still go to the group selection at asda? or do i turn down the job in subway and then could end up with nothing argghhhhh!

The muse is being a little vengeful today - she has been growling and snarling at me today, forcing thoughts into my head which - in the case of some - are probably left untouched, unsaid.
Having said that, though, here are four new poems for your reading (dis)pleasure.
The moon rises over the pallid sea and The silvery mist of the meadows – Silently one by one, In the infinite meadows of heaven, Blossoms the lovely stars – The forget-me-nots of the angels
Her level rays, like golden bars Lie on the ground below An eerie green with Wild shadows cast in brown in between. Silver white the waters gleam, As if Artemis herself, In enpassioned dreams, Has dropped her silver bow Down upon the quiet earth.
A very soft spirit worships - One lovers know and love so well – Whose influence over All tides of soul has true power, and Who lends a pale light to Rapture and despair;
The glow of hope and wan hue of sick fancy Are each reflected within the mirror of slivered rays Lighting the path of meeting or of parting love - Illuminating the mingling of and The breaking of hearts one in the same… An ethereal smile enthroned in beauty.
In the same breath, The governess of floods - Pale in her anger – Washes all the air That rheumatic diseases do abound.
Through this fit of temper, We do see the seasons alter
My muse, the vengeful little bitch that she is, is stirring there in my mind right now. She hasn't decided whether or not her presence needs to be forceful today, but it has inspired this...
The Muse
There, in the thicket, Can you see it? A half-wild beast supping on A half-cooked stew, Lingering close to the clearing Yet not quite willing to enter.
Drawn in by the stench of Eagerness and hope, It releases a gut-wrenching snarl and Enters, Moving ever closer with A gleam and a dare in its eye.
Do you have what it takes – The depth of faith; The constitution and patience to Go as far as needed – To tame the beast… To train this thing?
The stench of a still life, A snapshot of some story Rattling about in your head, Draws the beast ever closer – Snarling, drooling, and Ready for battle.
Suppositions, superstitions and Half-finished stories – The fruit of your imagination – Is the stuffs of which The beast creates and cooks Its nightly repast.
Do you possess it – The patience and passion necessary to Tame the beast… To tame your muse so that You can put pen to paper and Clear your wild mind?
