Holden saw the message had been written on the wall-- he multiplied within his mind one million and three sixty five divided then by twenty four calibered by sixty hands an integer of semblance-- contaminant, his point of view he stood within the moment-one- anguished by the truth of two: There was no recourse for him as Phoebe rode the carousel dissociation, thus reduced squared to spare her, Holden wept and parsed the sentence from the verb to leave the lonely "you"... |

Thanks all for reading, though I can't say the poem was written for anyone other than yer average "Catcher In The Rye" fan... heh. Average...grin But I do appreciate the comments, and them that knows the book understands the poem. So yep, Jo, more of a book report than poem. But it's allllllllllll gravy, right?  |

Karen, once I read the title I knew I'd love your poem.....Catcher in The Rye has always been one of my favourite books, I've always related and thus I do with your words. Your creative mind never ceases to impress or provoke thought OR make me wanna write more like you!) We need more intelligent poems like these in the forums. Melissa~ Intellectually I know that Canada is no better than any other country. Emotionally I KNOW that Canada is the best country in the world! |

Karen, I have SORELY missed reading your thoughts these past few months I have been away. This is definately one of them that I am going to re-read a few times before letting it go... even though I wasn't much for Catcher. You may burn my flag... only after you wrap yourself in it first. |
