Pentaflexing Gumby I know someone, she cringes all the time because I cannot always write in iambic pentameter rhyme ‘cause I’m me, you know through my words, this me really shows but something had a real hold over me something left from a beaming moon ‘cause now I’m more like Gumby five sides to me bending way too easily so this little ditty will really have no purpose except to say that I’d be a porpoise if I had a chance to swim at sea straight and true float like you in words like yours but if you have gotten here, this far you know that it’s more than nuts in a jar these feelings that we have to express in any form with any norm more or less and I really have no rhyme nor reason except perhaps iambic treason to share these words with you today pentaflexing Gumby just one more day because just you will understand Karilea If I whisper, will you listen?... I would rather be silent and write, than speak loudly and be bound. KRJ |

Does this mean that I have to read this 5 times to understand it? You know I like this one. . . --------------------------------------------------------- That which gives light must endure burning --Victor Frankl |
