I'm Gonna Catch ~Hell~ ~*Marge Tindal*~ If things keep on the way they're going there's one thing that I'm sure on knowing Ripping and racing,I cannot quell this eventual collision I'm gonna catch ~Hell~ Careening around the corner Stuck in second gear When ~Hell~ comes whizzing past I'll catch up with it - don't fear Watch out folks Horns are blaring Loud and long the blast has almost got me swearing A whirling, twirling dynamo Twisting and shouting with squeals A three year old in his new race car I'm chasing ~Hell On Wheels~ Evasive maneuver in his eyes He smiles with such appeal Gives me that knowing little wink I know I've just caught ~Hell~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |

OOOOOOOHHHHH AND I'M GONNA TELL LOL well just get on your bad motor scooter and ride Margie-girl. very cute and clever poem always a smile with you Margie-gator later jm I think I could need - this in my life I think I'm just scared - that I know too much I can't relate and that's a problem I'm feeling ... If you're gone - maybe it's time to go home There's an awful lot of breathing room But I can hardly move If you're gone - baby you need to come home cuz there's a little bit of something me... In everything in you. ~MB20~ "What the caterpillar calls the end ... The world calls a butterfly" ~Lao Tze Tao~ ~Butterflies are meant to be free~ |

Instantly, I remember HELLS BELLS by AC/DC, I dunno why, but I do... nice work, marge, as usual... RIDE far into the sun, FORGET the hell, sweet one, LET fear not be feared, MAY no stone to upturn be spared... LITTLE three year olds are fine, PIECES of gold, diamond, they do shine, PET them, pamper them, give them love, A day will come, when they will repay you, by jove!!! HAVE lots of fun, Marge, Regards, sudhir. My heart is pounding, my stomach's inside out I'm feeling kind-a-shaky, my mind is full of doubt All I ever think about, is fearing fear itself, Wish I could unscrew my head and put it on the shelf Everything is twisted, everything is oh so tight, Don't know what I'm looking at, the lights are all too bright My brain's about to crumble, spill out on the floor Sweep 'em up. Throw 'em away, don't want 'em anymore Clouds race across the sky, day turns into night, Still there are the questions, no answers in sight Everything is twisted, everything is oh so tight, Starin' out the window, everything is just too bright Brain's about to crumble, spill out on the floor, Wish I could unscrew my head, and kick it out the door... You know I'm feeling kind-a....Strange You know I'm feeling kind-a....Strange ~ Strange ~ Joe Satriani (Flying in a Blue Dream) |

Marge our very own Easy Rider cruising on the wheels of hell. That was a hell of a poem. Continue to ride the poetic highway Marge. It is a pleasure to see in the readers side car and be taken on an amazing journey. enough with the biker cliches. lol great poem. ------------------------ "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."

Ready for another ride Marge???????? Like I have always said...Drive it like you stole it ![]() It takes only a minute to get a crush on someone, an hour to like someone, a day to love someone, but it takes a lifetime to forget someone. |

Never Surrender This track of mine And limited time A house of rules and tortures Banking all the corners Escape the giant Mission defiant The cat is a thrill Near miss road kill Shift to second gear My time is near To bed and tear Evade the giant, I'm clear Nitrous treat A boost for defeat Screams of victory Hiding with trickery Make no sound Giant steps pound Never surrender I'm hell's defender There's no escape I'm bound with fate Lifted with love Placed in a sleepers glove |
