the taps It’s like finding the haystack’s needle when looking for water on the ocean and they forecast a green light and the traffic all flows down the footsteps of humanity which is running off my toes and I feel a little woozy like a dime store floozy whose lighting off her candles so she can get some sleep under a blanket of thunder to worn out to wonder just what is the side effect from breathing deep when she looks down to find a metaphor she only find’s life such a blunt little lifestyle... for such a sharp little knife Like a sad little hangman waiting for his word I am looking for more straight people to absurd it’s like looking for an apology and only getting stories that are only about... the tough times and I’m running short on empathy so forgive me if I’m angry cause my passion and my faith always seemed to rhyme when she looks down to find a metaphor she only find’s life such a blunt little lifestyle... for such a sharp little knife I am the traveling salesmen whose knocking at your door trying to sell off my shares of the man cause the games are going badly call Milton Bradley and advise that this was not part of the plan so for that haystack with no meaning it’s an attempt at deceiving what they don’t think you ever saw and I’m punching like a piston my chicken don’t need no crisp'in I like my truth served to me raw and when she looks down to find a metaphor she only find’s life such a blunt little lifestyle... for such a sharp little knife Morès [This message has been edited by Airscale (04-13-2003 05:02 AM).] |

Well, Airscale, this is one of the most interesting first posts I've ever read. Welcome! Such a creative, unique piece will find a spot in my library. I look forward to more trumpeting. |

Very nice...Very. Read aloud and LOUD, this would be "slam poetry". Or good coffeehouse fare. Welcome ~wranx "The shortest distance between two points is.....sometimes intolerable" |

Thank you all so much... and I love the on-line postcard. It's funny you all talk about the music aspect of it, because it's set to a hard beat of drum taps... Thank you again for your replies... I'm so overjoyed, there is so much poetry on this board... I LOVE IT. |
