Peppermint bullets fill my head And I will walk down to the meadow It's only Wednesday, midday I sit and pray and watch the holy cows They're trying not to notice me... A heavy rainbow falls again too hard A spectrum shard shatters my window Plummets whirling straight into my kettle And with all this info a planet is going crazy And I ask politely please... Is there some easier way to unstich this? In time For easter? |

Allan, this one is really funny! It made me laugh! Especially the holy cows that are trying not to notice you. And I'm not sure if you can unstitch all that chaos in time for Easter, though ... I don't understand what's going on in the world either. Does anyone? BTW, Why white? I had to really strain my goggle eyes to read it  Lotharingia "For God's sake, he's a poet.

Hello MA Miller That is an excellent Q. Unfortunately difficult to give a good reply. I had suspended my logical functions temporarily here. I had stopped making 'sense' so to speak... It's just a daft 'thingy'. I kind of like totally off the wall-ness sometimes, mixed with the surreal, etc. But that's getting too deep - it's just a bit of fun seeing how far I could twist my brain to make 180° turns! It's pretty terrible and done in about 30 seconds but I thought what the hell let it be... I should put a warning on any I do like this! Thanks for posting something to it - it hardly merits it! Allan  [This message has been edited by allan (edited 07-18-2000).] |

Y'know...I think I am understanding the peppermint bullets, now allan, and if I'm not, don't tell me, because it FEELS like clarity... |
