Exa
If I knew you
.
If we met -
at some potluck,
and talked
and laughed
and walked.
.
If we sang,
like cockatoos gone wild,
in chorus,
twice, three times,
and again,
for good measure.
.
If I knew,
just how much
you like chocolate,
and how much you
hate it milky.
.
If we talked,
about green,
and silver, the metal,
and bicycles
in the sun.
.
If I made a joke,
that you thought was funny,
and swelled, with mirth,
every time
you thought of it
.
If I knew you,
and you too,
I’d click my heels,
lift my hat and
trip over myself.
.
I’d dance with you too.
Send email through UWaterloo’s Engmail (SMTP) using gmail
So ever since gmail enabled the ability to send email like they’re coming from linked accounts, I’ve had my uwaterloo Engmail set up to work right from my gmail and there was a very simple way to do it:
First, navigate to your settings page in gmail and under the Accounts and Imports tab, click on “Send mail from another email address”.
Fill the popup with your name and your UW Engmail address:
Move on to the next step and fill it out, like so:
SMTP server: engmail.uwaterloo.ca
Port: 465
Click on Add Account, wait for the verification email. And there you go. Easy as peach.
I almost feel like the pictures were highly unnecessary,
Artificial Man
I know your darkest secrets,
the long forgotten kind,
I know your deepest regrets,
the ones you’d left behind.
We’ve told our tales with laughter,
and felt its deepest touch,
and slept in silence after,
before it was all too much.
You insisted on the travel,
(like you always do)
and as the story unravelled,
I fell in love with you.
Sitting on the shoreline,
with the water at our feet,
we took our love as a sign,
to make this trust complete.
We rounded up the holly,
the snow white cake and cream,
the music all so jolly
the chef bursting at the seams.
And it didn’t really matter,
that our friendship then was gone
we watched our old bonds shatter,
as a brand new love was born.
And then I heard them whisper,
soft into my ears,
every time I kissed her
repeat my only fears.
The voices in my head grew,
grew louder, as we went,
I heard them in your head too,
with all the time that we spent.
One day I stopped trying,
I let my paranoia free,
I strapped you to that tugboat,
and begged you, let me be.
The waves crashed in around me,
the water loud in my head,
I cut the rope bridge free,
to meet a solitary death.
The swing by the hut swaying,
to an angry sounding wind,
the distant bells were saying,
forgive me, I have sinned.
We found our primate solitude,
in each other’s company,
our only hope together
was to let each other be.
I hear the lies they tell you,
and I hope you understand,
I’m not the kind they sell you,
I’m no artificial man.
