If others understood this guy And my lines, which are so good,(my,my) They'd say "Great" and "Amen," Instead of "Duh" and "Ahem!" (I'm gald only the Smart ones reply. I came and ain't been the same since, To this poetry site--par excellence Where poems are the sensation, Posted , seeking validation Hoping they won't revoke my poet's license! |

deleeme, a wonderful poem. I came and ain't been the same since, To this poetry site--par excellence Where poems are the sensation, Posted , seeking validation Hoping they won't revoke my poet's license I think you speak for all of us here. ------------------------ "I've been too honest with myself I should have lied like everybody else"-Richey Edwards "Take nothing but pictures. Leave nothing but footprints. Kill nothing but time". Baltimore Grotto "Libraries gave us power Then work came and made us free What price now for a shallow piece of dignity" Nicky Wire, A design for Life. manic street preachers "Rock 'n' roll is our epiphany Culture, alienation, boredom and despair" "To be nobody-but-yourself-in a world which is doing its best night and day, to make you everybody else - means to fight the hardest battle which any human being can fight; and never stop fighting."

I love the second verse. I had to chuckle when picturing people running for a dictionary to find out what the words mean. |

David - I stopped in here for a peek and find you and David and Ellie, I'll have to stop in here more often. What a terrific poem. I didn't know there was such a thing as a rhyming dictionary. Guess I learn something from you no matter what forum you're in. Bonnie |
