About me lie the scattered ruins brief glory's cost laid bare , silent mocking silvery moon o'er-sees this sad affair . Lest lunacy lay claim to me until this life shall cease , thrust sight on me most trenchantly implored , grant me release . Once granted of this gift , assured none shall have need to doubt my word . |

Hi Doc, Always read your stuff, but don't always have time to answer. This one is solid, it's not always how many words you use, but how you use them. |

Good Doctor Moose Your words I do not doubt Especailly at a 1-20 decible shout. And if the lights are bright Then just hit the dim In shadows you can hide All the lunacy within. As for that mocking moon Desist all your rants For I'll get the Justins To pull up their pants.  PS... really great read! |

reject, Interesting moniker , am so glad you stopped by .Thanks ! Sy, I am so far behind in my reading now , it's starting to overlap with my not commenting ! Another reason to go stand in the corner ! Soon my face will take on a distinct angular shape if I don't mend my ways .Thanks , as always , Doc X Angel, The brevity of this piece was due more to the constraints of working within the acrostic form . Sometimes I find that such limitations really distill the original thought , and help to keep it free of impurities . Thanks , your comments are always appreciated . Doc Drew, Ol' buddy , Crayon King ,PBS dude , sometime I will take you up on that drink at the pub ! But I have many things to learn , and time is always too short . Thanks for bearing with me . Doc |
