It's the traditional sign off to all Japanese Haiku.

Yes, it's a spoiler for the poem stuck in my brain at the moment. I've been trying to shake it out and down my arm into the pen all day! (and looked really silly doing it

I stumbled onto this, and had some laughs.
http://scribble.com/dghq/gothlyric/

One that popped up:
by Dropsy Osiris

Black cats kiss severed psychosis
My anguish quivers melancholy concubine
Agony whispers barren passion
My anguish unleashes trembling concubine

This torrential rain dances on gloomy rapture
Vermin call forth lonely deception
Spiders regret blasphemous poison
Death kisses serpentine decrepitude

She summons beloved night
The stench writhes dying tears
Serpents stalk bloody decrepitude
Your touch secretes infernal disillusionment

Spirits languish bloody graves
Blazing pinions implore diseased manacles
Spiders destroy severed graves
Jesus eviscerates luscious innocents

Also: Have all your questions answered: http://osric.com/8ball/

You are all so cool, just coming up with verses like that.

*sneezes*

Don't mind me!

(no seriously. It think its great that all of you have the talent but please don't start saying poetry at me IRL - I get cramp and RLS and start to itch and perspire slightly. Then my brain goes crazy and start attempting to leave the building, I can't make eye contact and get this uncontrollable urge to do odd things like giggle and sing or talk really loudly. I don't know what it is. Apologies)

Long version, here- http://www.fireflyfans.net/mthread.asp?b=5&t=29479

short version- you take the pic, put it up on photobucket, put the direct link in your tag line (in your profile), with img tags around it- (without the spaces)

And if you want anything done to the pic, whether you want part of it cropped, or resized, or some color fixes, lemme know and I can probably do that for ya ^_^
