something about the gravel spit shimmering of the dallas afternoon in flip flop boots there are lazy bugs jostle dancing leaves oozing their gratification for invisibility the toneless sins of badu in bad manners making drinking for no reason, seem reasonable when most men would rewind that journey and put everything back on, faster forward then go back to wondering about bamamoney and what magic tree it all springs from where no one will have pocket surgery again only happy ever after with wands and roses and cowboys won't wear hardhats to tea parties _______________ daark |

Honeybee is starting to resemble other responding poets in her comments...which is endearing and darling... and I hear you speak beyond your images... especially now. Sending hugs...waiting for more poems. I think I'm going to have to comprise my own book, OMG... |

Dark Stranger... I've read through this about eight or nine times... I can't say I understand half of it... what I can say is that I still like it. There's just something there that keeps nagging... It makes me feel like somebody is about ready to haul off and punch my lights out... not that I'm looking for such abuse. There just seems to be an underlying threat to this peice. Don't know if that is what you intended, but it's what I've come away with. "We'll chase them like rats across the tundra." [This message has been edited by Andrew Scott (04-04-2010 01:37 AM).] |

All I can say is I like this a lot. This cold has killed the creativity brain cells I had - so I'll just be matter of fact. I like this. A |

Haaa... me gets it now. Though I'm a little behind on my current affairs, I understand a few more of the word refrences. Thanks for making the mud a little bit less chunky. "We'll chase them like rats across the tundra." |

oatmeal makes me sick - and lumpy oatmeal makes me crazy! ... and i don't get it (honest enough to admit that little thang), but i still like it and i am still sick and am feeling a bit run-on and tired. |

Googling the Ms. Badu event in Dallas did make it easier to follow your reasoning. The way you put things on paper and in poetic form is simply amazing, whatever the topic. You are the Master! Love, Margherita |

methinks I must wait until my mind heals itself before I can understand all that you have scribed, but as I recover, let me say that I do love this line: "and cowboys won't wear hardhats to tea parties" |
