We have even fought hard to defend your privacy in legal cases; however, we've done it with almost no financial support -- paying out of pocket to continue providing the service. Due to the issues imposed on us by advertisers, we also stopped hosting most ads on the forums many years ago. We hope you appreciate our efforts.

Subject: Night Cries in Morning's Smile

The jackals came that night
While the clouds clapped and glittered,
And the rain ran like fingers over my skin.
Naked in the sinking ground,
They sought the jugular
To take my blood and breath.
But I was gone long before
Their kisses laid me to rest.

Yet I woke,
With leaves in my hair and dirt under my nails,
A scar branding my neck...
My muscles were sore and tired,
But I stood to wash in the stream,
Back to beginnings.

Time can't be erased,
Only denied and circled over
In child-like spirals.
Dizzying and sickening.

Interchangeable- love for time, time for love...

Clean,
My veins pulsate,
Visible under my translucent coverings,
And the sun comes for warmth.

Vulnerability drives the hunger,
Completing the circle in grotesque motivation.

I lay in wait.
