Throwing Me Crumbs I’m biting my tongue She’s still throwing me crumbs Please someone stop me from swallowing If I react, if I respond This circle will go round again Someone saner than me, please stop this Disconnect the lines of communication Shock treatment may be well advised I will give you power of attorney Over my heart, certainly my mind Just suggest to me That I’ve had a nip…or two I know exactly what she will do If I react, if I respond She will be gone Before my passion can even settle I need now to heed my own advice Need to learn from my own mistakes Someone saner than me, please tell me This time…I am right [This message has been edited by JLR (edited 03-21-2001).] |

JLR, I work for attorneys, the document you want is a click away... I am so sorry if this stems from the real, but I must say...a good write. |

You're right!!!!!! Bravo for you!  Stepping off that well beaten track is taking a step towards freedom and something better. Extremely well written. The greatest part of a writer's time is spent in reading, in order to write; a man will turn over half a library to make one book. |

often the attraction of the circle turned rut lies in its familiarity even pain expected we sometimes choose before we risk and launch the real seperaton which is the very hardest part that wailing inside us we so many things but ultimately a heart Come on my friend time for a new direction as said before someday you will only remember it not feel it time to walk a different path and lean when needed we are all just human we all feel it and see so much easier from the outside to see what is needed give in to heart it bleeds but all wounds heal eventually "Be your own hero. Save your interior landscape. As in all mythos the blight can be defeated and the land turned back to freedom and fertility. [This message has been edited by ATelamon (edited 03-20-2001).] |

Love should and, with the right one, a feast for the soul. No hunger afterwards and you can even lick the chin or your lover!!!!!! I enjoyed this. Kathleen Blake |

Thank God, most of us learn from our mistakes. Keep a clear mind, my friend. Many emotions, well expressed! A quarter of a century must pass, for the writer to understand what and why he writes. |

How could you argue with the experience....maybe someday it'll start over ha it's a hoot really! Yes you're right this time and all the rest of the times because your made up of no one but yourself........great write ...in some ways I hope it doesn't apply to you....thanks! You're a very good writer! The poet is like a cocoon; in him the caterpillar of the past finds rest, and from him the butterfly of the future emerges. |
