. I have felt nothing For more years Than you can imagine For me Love and hate are Less than anything Since I am merely being Your concerns Are no longer mine My life undulates With the tides Although Should you press me All that very hard I'd rather be Simply dead .

As long as there is music, a beat, or sound of something like a song, I would never rather be simply dead. Even lives blue is better than dead quiet. Hope things get better for you. |

Your unique poetry can only be written by you, John. I couldn't enjoy it if you were "simply dead" and who would I spar around with on occasion? Ida |

Great poem. I confess. Until this moment, I've never really felt anything about a clam, but now I'm mad and very sad for the poor thing. |
