Lots of folks
would probably say
that Bones is kind of phony.  

He’s always trying to please.  
It’s part of his effort to stay alive.  

Staying alive
is a constant battle for Bones,
always has been,
and always will be.  

Don’t try to look
below the surface
with Bones.  

You can’t get there
from where you’re at.  

You should be thankful for that.

Bobby

Hi, Bones

I hope you don't think I was trying to pick your brains when I said I identify with you, I just think we come from the same era.

Please don't take offence with my comments.


I'll still say

Love 'un stuff

Bones is a multi-layered and multi-faceted enigma!

Hey Bobby love,
  Bones sounds like someone I have very close to my heart. You can be part of his life but yet you can't. It's not all that hard to understand. You just have to be a little forgiving sometimes.

  As always, I love this one.

Hey dear Linda,

Now don't go calling Bones names.

I think most everyone is an enigma, you can never tell what anyone is really up to.

Thanks dear Fmlbarebackrider2001,

I'm pleased you enjoyed the poem.

I think most everyone is a mystery.  I find it difficult to fully relate to myself.

Love Bobby

Bobby - Bones is Bones, and no one is he. No phony, just Bones...

Thanks Bill,

For noticing that Bones is always a very real person.

Bones is always very pro-Bones in a very straight forward manner.

I think most everyone is an enigma too, Bobby. One can never know how someone else feels or what they have come from.
