hepatitis yellow streetlamp staring down out where buses don't run hiss of the subway sounds like a pit bull attack hoping buses really do run desperation staring back like long-forgotten ghosts catching buses that don't run funeral wreath hangs askew one Texas two-step before the buses run ©May 16, 2011 / Jerry Pat Bolton ~ Plastic surgeons are always making mountains out of molehills. ~ [This message has been edited by JerryPat2 (05-16-2011 11:00 PM).] |

Yeah. I just decided to put my own poem out that doesn't make sense, I see so much of this kind of lately thought I'd give it a try. ~ Plastic surgeons are always making mountains out of molehills. ~ |

Yeah, Helen, I guess I was just in a bad-boy mood yesterday. ~ Plastic surgeons are always making mountains out of molehills. ~ |

Nonsense, JP...this poem does make sense. A person is waiting at a busstop It is in the middle of the night They are afraid of the city They are afraid of being alone The buss is late It doesn't come There is a struggle A dance of death (Texas two step) They are killed by a mugger.(funeral wreath) The end That's what I see in it, and I'm sticking to it..:-) |
