A thorn, a hound's tooth, a fool's word: these are the three sharpest things.
There are many colourful flowers on the path of life, but the prettiest have the sharpest thorns.
Bereavement is the sharpest challenge to our trust in God; if faith can overcome this, there is no mountain which it cannot remove.
I much prefer the sharpest criticism of a single intelligent man to the thoughtless approval of the masses.

As the best wine makes the sharpest vinegar, so the deepest love turns to the deadliest hatred.
As the best wine makes the sharpest vinegar, the truest lover may turn into the worst enemy.
As the best wine doth make the sharpest vinegar, so the deepest love turneth to the deadliest hate.
This Makes No Sense
If there are those,
Who have walked on paths alone...
And they have known the ones,
To have stabbed them in the back...
With false accusations.
Why would they then volunteer,
To pay someone else's dues?
Or let anyone borrow from them,
Their sharpest knives?
With a wishing,
To them...
To keep trying to do their very best?
This makes no sense!
Or does it?

Samuel's First Attempt At Poetry
Wen vudazrvukoldist vunittsrvuwormis
(Wen) vuuizrvukolis vuVrosdizvushrpisd
Translation
Wen vu daz r vu koldist
When the days are the coldest
vu nitts r vu wormis
the nights are the warmest
Wen vu uiz r vu kolis
When the years are the coolest
vu Vrosd iz vu shrpisd
the frost is the sharpest
The imagination is the spur of delights... all depends upon it, it is the mainspring of everything; now, is it not by means of the imagination one knows joy? Is it not of the imagination that the sharpest pleasures arise?

On a Vulgar Error
No. It's an impudent falsehood. Men did not
Invariably think the newer way Prosaic
mad, inelegant, or what not.
Was the first pointed arch esteemed a blot
Upon the church? Did anybody say How
modern and how ugly? They did not.
Plate-armour, or windows glazed, or verse fire-hot
With rhymes from France, or spices from Cathay,
Were these at first a horror? They were not.
If, then, our present arts, laws, houses, food
All set us hankering after yesterday,
Need this be only an archaising mood?
Why, any man whose purse has been let blood
By sharpers, when he finds all drained away
Must compare how he stands with how he stood.
If a quack doctor's breezy ineptitude
Has cost me a leg, must I forget straightway
All that I can't do now, all that I could?
So, when our guides unanimously decry
The backward glance, I think we can guess why.

New World
New world {x4}
When the sharpest vibration
Saves u from obliteration
The intelligence of your bed reacts
Covering u head 2 toe with an air-filled sack
Chorus:
When the lines blur every boy and girl
How we gonna make it in this brave new world?
Love 4 one another - new world
Love 4 one another - new world
When u wanna find some isolation
But the tracker u got from vaccination (keeps playin)
Keeps playin - ull never walk alone (over and over)
Theyre always listening, especially on the phone
Chorus
Wait a minute
New world
Did u hear about the new pill? it feels like sex!
Guaranteed 2 thrill with no ill side-effects
A pill that will stop the wrinkles, a pill that will stop the pain
A pill that will make a baby never seek political gain
Whats it all 4 when u can alter biology?
Who or what, then my friend, will u and I be? {x2}
When the sharpest vibration
Saves u from obliteration
When the melting pot stirs, how u gonna take it?
When u cant tell him from her, how u gonna fake it?
When the lines blur every boy and girl
How u gonna make it in this brave new world?
Love 4 one another - new world
Love 4 one another (how u gonna take it? )
(how u gonna fake it? )
Love 4 one another (how u gonna take it? )
(new world) new world
New world

Working With Meat
We are desensitized
Television did not break me
Been broke since I was born
I am breaking up with you
We are desensitized
Shove comfort up my nose
I feel dysfunctional
but numb enough for two
We are desensitized
I've lost my only friend
Left here alone again
They left me here alone
We are the meat you work with
This is your sense of failure
If you work me way too long
The failure stains your hands
We are the meat you've eaten
Cut us with your sharpest knife
you've been away so long
The maggots eat away
We are desensitized
Television does not hate me
Had hate for way too long
I hate you very much
We are desensitized
Shove comfort up my nose
I feel dysfunctional
But numb enough for two
We are the meat you work with
This is your sense of failure
If you worked me way too long
The failure stains your hands
We are the meat you've eaten
Cut us with your sharpest knife
You've been away so long
The maggots eat away
We all are new wave faggots
Digesting old drug habits
We've been away so long
The maggots eat
The maggots eat away
