Here I am
in Open forum
with no sense
of decorum
because
on page one
I'm stuck.
I've read
every poem
on page one
but could reply
to none
and that
is truly
rotten
luck.

I'm tempted
to rail and curse
with my
exquisite verse,
against
this unmerciful fate.
I find 11 hours
without the forum
and my mind
cowers,
it's being
up again
does elate.

Thanks much Ron!

That's okay, WhtDove... I cursed enough for both of us! LOL. One long drawn out, nearly never ending "Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww, shoot!" is cursing... right? *G*

DE: Well done... I wonder if there's a Betty Ford clinic for poetry addicts? *G*

I really liked this poem. Unfortunatly, I'm a bit confused about why you couldn't respond to the poems. Did you feel that none of them were worthy of response? Or is there something else I'm missing?

Tricky move, DE, getting yourself locked in that way... I can think of some Twilight Zone type twists that could make for a very interesting story!

Christopher & Lucie (and Toe, too) - I didn't think of your missives as guilt trips, but rather as keeping me company during a very long and boring vigil. Besides, guilt doesn't work well on me - I've been married too many times (sort of like vaccinations, ya know).

Artur, 'tis glad I am that I was not alone. LOL

Ron, I was thinking the twilight zone had descended upon me, but at least I got to read some excellent verse. Being stuck for 11 hours did have me re-running some Tales From The Darkside as well.

Thamk you everyone for your sympathy. It just chokes me up. (sob)

LOL
