Choose one, or add your own:

The drama of life is best displayed on stage.
It is there, and only there, we can relax and enjoy the show.

Theater is in my blood. It moves me. It thrills me.
I am never more alive, than when I am pretending.

Acting is for everyone. We all play our parts, everyday.
But on stage, people applaud when you do it well.

If the play is good, the actors receive all the credit.
And when it is bad, everyone knows it was the director’s fault.

One line, or a thousand, it does not matter,
say the words so they will be remembered forever.

The stage is a place where spirits soar,
and hearts and minds are set free.

Some will say, it is only entertainment, but it is much more.
It is truth, brought to life, by those who care what is true.

Make your entrances and exits grand,
people seldom remember the rest.

Sing as if generations later, they will dust off a recording
of your voice to learn what life and love are…and can be.

Are there certain exercises to do in order to increase the range of notes a singer is able to hit sucessfully? If so, what are they? Or would vocal lessons be the answer?

We've studied lots of times, and learned about many facts.
There've been the Dino's time, the mummy's one, the vampire's one... The Christians tried to impose their religion through the Cruzades; the NY Stockmarket's crashed; the world faced some ditactorships; there've been two world wars( we might be running into a third, I hope we're not); many sorts of government appeared, like the communists and anarchists; today we live much more than did our ancestors, and we can talk to a robot! What's coming in the future? Nobody knows! We can only suppose... there will be a cure for cancer? People will live in space??

Now, it's up to you... which time would you choose to live?

Basically, can "8" be seen as a symbol for infinity as well as the number eight?

Also, do other images/symbols/etc within the realm (inside the two circles of the continuous line) of the infinity symbol detract from its idea?

I have a gorgeous and unusual Jack Russell puppy who is tan all over and amazingly photogenic. My partner, who is a photographer, has taken some stunning pictures of her and I'd love to see them printed on a calendar that can be bought in the shops. How do I go about submitting them for consideration? Any tips would be appreciated!

Why do some people feel a need to modify hypotheticals presented to them, as if they were always entitled to interpose their sense of what is fair? Unless the hypothetical is too implausible to be answered, what objective basis is there to alter a person's hypothetical?

Does anyone have any tips at all that may help me in writing a magazine article? Or does anyone have any good suggestions on topics?

2006-11-28 22:00:32 · 1 answers · asked by cartoonhero55 2 in Books & Authors

A hidden truth,
compressed by fate.
A hidden heart,
buried in dust.

Darkness and light,
under one roof.
Under one sky,
hid in battle.

Roses are red,
violets are blue.
Humans are sweet,
That's sooo not true.

Ok, I admit this is not one of my best poems, I think there's soemthing wrong with lines 4 and 8. If you have any suggestions, please just tell me.

a lovely night,
under full moon.
simple silence,
very dim light.

for once,
darkness is good.
simple silence,
in a good mood.

One person's heaven,
another's rest.
somple silence,
silence is best.

I know, I know, I'm not used to writing these type of poems...

I trust you,
a lie.
a red rose,
good bye.

a world,
full of lies.
should I live,
or should I die.

Okay, remember, I am playing around. But, this poem still has some meanings hidden in it, hope you don't overlook it.
