I can still see as a different man
feel with the soft hands of a surgeon
speak to giants with a booming voice
hear as if I wanted to listen

but it should come as no suprise
to you I am limited as a person
changing little from what you chose
fitting into a tightly obscene mold

So when you stand with mouth agape
at the words you hear pouring out
just remember you tried to form the mold
but I chose to cast it aside

have a good life dear

Nice to see you again, james... You may have missed the whole Passions hardbound "book project".... We're in the process of taking submissions - Don't miss the bandwagon, OK?? Choose some of your best stuff and post (or repost - whichever)... so the rest of us can vote it into the book - and do it SOON...

Check the "submit box" right under the "title box" in your post - We'll take it from there....

btw - nice work here...

You can tell the book submissions by their "book icon" on the left margin of the post - and you can vote the same way on any of those poems - Just click the box under your password when you comment...
