About Me

HIGH ON LIFE
http://www.myspace.com/highonlifegig


My name is Sian, I'm 19 and live in Edinburgh.



ADD THIS BAND!

The Summer Day
from Mary Oliver, House Of Light

Who made the world?
Who made the swan, and the black bear?
Who made the grasshopper?
This grasshopper, I mean-
the one who has flung herself out of the grass,
the one who is eating sugar out of my hand,
who is moving her jaws back and forth instead of up and down-
who is gazing around with her enormous and complicated eyes.
Now she lift her pale forearms and thoroughly washes her face.
Now she snaps her wings open, and floats away.
I don't know exactly what a prayer is.
I do know how to pay attention, how to fall down
into the grass, how to kneel down in the grass,
how to be idle and blessed, how to stroll through the fields,
which is what I have been doing all day.
Tell me, what else should I have done?
Doesn't everything die at last, and too soon?
Tell me, what is your plan to do
with your one wild and precious life?


Shade More Than Man
Anthony Weir

My bones were formed by sorrow
As shrines are built by doubt
Sorrow of being
Doubt of becoming
Sweat upon sand
Tide in, tide out
Inevitable
Invisible
Shipwreck in fog
I make soup for tomorrow
Lost like a dog
Between doubt and sorrow.
