Carefully watch all of your speech don’t say much of anything that can be compelling or like the bluest oceans be thought of as deep Flying words on banners cascading by from planes vowels of the constellations up in the sky are far from safe The thoughts we utter from mouths painted lips with little thought for the tiny thoughts that might become just the icebergs tip For a writer on the look out is a victim hanging onto his life vest waiting for a ship Be wary of who you speak to they might be easily stealing with permission from you the lines you deal out like cards in life’s game are someone else’s thoughts for ink gain You might just read your own dang blurbs in a poem written by the thief of your free-spoken words "I'm a junkyard full of false starts....Elliot Smith" |

This is oh so true....and yet....if someone were to take my words, I would consider that a blessing, for perhaps that person could make them sound just that much better.... so I continue to share, and one of us here knows it quite well!.... LOL.... |

They say it is the highest form of appreciation and accolade. Like Sunshine, I believe if one takes my work and uses it, makes it better, or even just touches another I could not, I am happy. Your written work, plagerized or not, is a kind of immortality. Live for love. Without love, you don't live. |

ok just to clarify I am not upset that my words get theived. In fact I'm quite happy about it. I'd willingly give them to *her* anyday. Who wouldn't want Doreen to do that? And besides...she doesn't take my words from my poetry...she kypes it from my emails. LOL It's quite cute! "I'm a junkyard full of false starts....Elliot Smith" |
