I am told that, "Everyone sees differently" "A different song, each sings" If this be true... of a different view... Why do they whine of the same damned things? Bring to me this He or She That sees a different way. That I may hear sense be said and not hobble what I say. Bring me this one who is free to dance upon a corpse thats rotten... where the "precious" gives life to "insignificant" plants. Where flowers and weeds are begotten. Bring me one who can look upon a baby's body, as it lays broken by mortar shells and ego's swell... and no word of doubt be spoken. One who could, with hoe in hand, chop the child,while singing praises. Then plow the babe beneath the land and await the moon to show it's phases. Bring me this one who knows the Light of Life and has no fear of Death's bell toll. Who is not shrouded by the veil of heaven... For it has rolled back like a scroll. I would love to meet this one. There is so much we need not say. We could sit and watch all of those who run... 'til they come take us away. Then we could laugh and dance and sing at the thought of the ones they "captured" While they continue to cling and feel Death's sting... waiting to be raptured. Ah, but the golem can only function by what is granted unto him. Its focus is dependent upon the implanting of the shim. So, understand,I see no "error" in whatever sight is shown. Its just that seeing as I see... I so often feel alone. Ah, the shim is being changed Perhaps this one has a better fit Yes ! I do not think myself so strange... as I pout and whine a bit. *** |

In Apocalypse Now, Col. Kurtz, as he describes the horrors of war that broke him, he also expressed admiration for them that did--they were "warriors"-- "Give me a platoon of men who don't feel judgement and this whole damned mess would be done with. It's JUDGEMENT...that kills." (I paraphrase, I suspect.) Nod...I caught that here: "Bring me this one who is free to dance upon a corpse thats rotten... where the "precious" gives life to "insignificant" plants. Where flowers and weeds are begotten." It's judgement. I salute you, sir. But do not wish to walk yer shoes... Is it possible to plant solemn daisies? (((((((((((((((Larry)))))))))))))) |

white shrimp boots? smile... I have accessories! You should write sometime...I'm not much for bass--it's so slow, but I love wading the Mississippi. I can't swim. But I figure dead bodies can float... so I inhale and relax alot...and every now and then I get me a flounder, or even a nice spankin' redfish. (I"ll take white trout on a bad night too...) River fishin' is the best... but what were we talkin' about? *chuckle* |

You poetry is never boring, Uriah. It always leaves me plenty to think about and that's my kind of poetry. Ida |

I LOVE river walking !!*** ***And lake walking*** ***And you knew this was coming ... puddle walking*** Not yet conquered walking ON water ... but I try *Huglets* ~*Marge*~ ~*The sound of a kiss is not as strong as that of a cannon, but it's echo endures much longer*~ |
