What do you think? |

What do you think? Haunted in a daunting way, But holding major sway. A hair thin line of strain, That is driving me insane. It coverts me in ecstasy, But causes much indignity. It is a scourge and a love, Carried by a dove. It drives me into sweat and cold, It makes me weak it makes me bold. I am but human, what can I do? When the subject matter speaks of you. I fence with my ID and parry, Exhaust myself and tarry. The battle is episodic And making me quite neurotic. My spider web is permanently set It's up to the fly to hit the net. |

If I am reading this right, then I hope it flies into that net! |

Sy, This poem sounds like a boxing match Between yourself and you And that can be exhausting So here's what you should do Just calm down, take a breath A cold shower is very nice Grab a beer,settle down Lean your head on a pack of ice Turn on some music or watch TV Feet in hot tub is very warming If the symptoms still persist Take 2 aspirin and then call me in the morning Take care, Liz [This message has been edited by Elizabeth Santos (edited 12-14-1999).] |

Interesting...very contradictory - I like. Perhaps, to echo the contradictions, it is the spider who will be caught!!! Well written, Sy. K |
