You mean Narcissism..
What about DEATH and destruction?
I'm just kidding, by the way.

Well...I'd say let's be patient with him for a while more.

But in case everybody gets too impatient, we can just vote who we like best :P
>inb4 "i vote for myself"

I have no problems being patient, but it would not be very nice to have this contest gone

Secrets
--------
Whispers in the dark, Shadows in the night,
Do not tell for fear of sight,
Keep to your own, two is best,
A single uttered word tells the rest.

When I think about my friends
I wonder where they are
And if they're predetermined
by some sort of magic scar
That's deep inside the world
Of my life
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Often, as I try to fall asleep
I think of all the secrets that I will keep
For if I do not wonder,
I will fall into the slumber
Of a million souls.

I can't exactly say what I liked so much about that poem, but it was very charming. (The cat)

A secret is a secret when no one knows of it's existence,
Then the secret sets loose...
And the secret is then no more
But a mere memory

A hundred thousand specules of molten steel,
Burn my flesh, that's how it feels.
Sparks from my grinder cover my skin,
My eyes sting,
Everything,
IS RIGHT!
The glow of the metal,
The heat that I sense,
Relasing new layers,
Than no one has seen.
Shaping, shifting ,creating
My very own firworks,
Flash before my eyes,
To keep it a secret,
I only behold.
