Interesting NY Times column by Rebecca Newberger Goldstein:

It began when a writer friend asked me what my Klout score was. We were sitting at the sushi bar of a Japanese restaurant, the master chef assembling edible origami of torched fish and foam. My husband and I used to patronize this neighborhood place quite a lot, until a restaurant critic ruined it for us by his unrestrained rave, so that now you have to make reservations months in advance. But my friend had magically procured us two seats just like that, and when I asked him for the secret of his influence he responded by asking me about my Klout score.

I didn’t know what a Klout score was, but I was pretty sure I didn’t have one. And yes, under his raised-eyebrow questioning, it was revealed that since I didn’t use Facebook or Twitter or any of the other…

My cliche day

If you are wondering why I write these cliche based sentences,I do it for amusement and also it can throw up ideas which I use in my writing.It’s a bit like fishing

 

A disgrace that launched a browsing app happened by sheer misfortune when her pyjamas fell down

My web rage is uncalcuble,my spelling is distractable.

He had a face which launched a thousand quips

She had  lace  which taunted a  horde of lips

Trace my musings on my blog journal: A woman’s gay life with men and other tales of joy and woe

Falls and doubts:my life story in briefs

Her face derailed a thousand apps

Her place emailed a thousand apes

She was bare and fair  but only in the photograph

Hair play banned by crickets on marsh and other news

The fairness was niggling at him..wait and be,she cried but no, he had to do and so he did

Tete a rumpli ;

.Overworked?Don’t persecute yourself; let us do it for you

Police believed me,and I’m set to go with the blow

I no longer live through him.

Faith will be moved by haunting the Bible

Do not fall on my words.They are paper thin

Fall on a bard and get a licking.See the phone app now!

Spiritual verses

  • Gravity
    Oh, cradle my soul in your light
  • As I am in darkness tonight.
  • Fill me with your love
  • On earth,not above.
  • Your touch is both gentle and bright.
  • Seeing and feeling are one.
  • As senses conjoin yet are none.
  • I know it is so
  • The darkness shall glow
  • You are both god and person.
  • It seems like the heavens are weeping
  • Rain and snow fall while we’re sleeping
  • The clouds are grey black
  • As Northward they trek.
  • As for records, are they all we are keeping?
  • We dwell in a body of flesh
  • With others we love to enmesh.
  • Let’s get up and dance now
  • Love shows us how…
  • We dance to the tunes that refresh
  • We humans need meaning to create
  • The meaningless can agitate.
  • But stories abound.
  • Pick the best you have fo found
  • Get in there and start to narrate
  • In nature time goes round and round
  • Life’s a spiral, the wise man has found.
  • Each time I pass you
  • I see you anew
  • Until gently we are laid in the ground.
  • The end is the beginning,they say.
  • So say what is important today.
  • For time flows like a stream;
  •  What is ,soon has been.
  • So we are foolish to encourage delay

Eyes and ears

I once was employed as a spy
But then I went blind in one eye,,
However they just said,.
Use both ears instead,
I still cannot see but I try,

Later I was employed as a cook
To look up receipts in cookbooks.
But try as I might
Without my eyesight
I saw nothing however long I looked
