Yet another Mall!

Yeah yet another mall right next to my home! My neighbour gets to take his kids out to Mc Ds. That acquaintance I keep grinning out at, can just go lap up some corn and coffee while time ticks by on nondescript holidays. Am I forgetting something, oh yes, me and my lazy body in five easy minutes can waddle up to the water hole up at the MALL!
Hasn't mall culture hit your city yet? Well then it still has something to sustain the thirst for entertainment of it populace or maybe you guys haven't progressed yet. For me and where I belong this seems to be the mainstay for whiling away time. I see people, children, all ages really, coming to shop, eat, play, drink or even just sit on the wide steps right at the entrance and enjoy a date!
Okay I am getting a tad old but isn't there more in the name of creativity?
And yeah I am not naming that beautiful habitat of mine, not because of giving it away, but surely they will change its name to MallAway or MallOTown or something more significant to the mall culture it proliferates!

Where the dead have their say

Diving into the dark turbulent sea, without a thought a spectator would note.
Why, did you not see that inspiringly handsome merman bading me into that magical world below? Or did you know what lurked under all that coral growth, a stingy ray or a shark's sharp jaw...
But its not for me to watch my step, while at each point I slid and fell.
Adventure is all that was wanting, adventure is all I got and in huge volumes should I say, 'cause this time it was the sea. I drowned, I choked, I was almost eaten away, most of me decayed, somehow something inside just found its way, pulled me out and pushed me to the land where untold adeventures began!
Corny as it may sound I am here to stay and fall for it, hook, line and sinker, for adventure as would a prey!

Cherubic Elf

Mouth stained with chocolate,
A sparkle in the eye,
You are out to create trouble
Tug at your father's stubble

Won't you stop for a minute
Let me catch my breath,
Must you always scream
Rudely wake me up from my dream

Should you always need to scamper
Play hide and seek
And while every problem seems to weigh one down
For you its a new possibility to crown

Lively as a bee
Bright as a butterfly
Painful as an ant
At once you give us joy and a reason to rant!

Yeasty Feasty Culture

Noble rot I believe is to introduce a particular fungus to reduce the water content of the grape and produce a sweetened dessert wine.
Ofcourse the same fungus in more humid conditions would spoil the crop.

Such is life, you could come across an element which if you imbibe by varying degrees would affect you in so many different ways, its just too fascinating. Would you be willing to carry out this experiment consciously and enjoy it both as a subject and a spectator. Would you get carried away and lose yourself in the story forever? Or would you really stay on the edge and make those ripples or waves to add to a noble rot. Well that's something to muse about while I soak in some more of my wine
