Iambe never minced words Or onions for that matter But like the onion’s sting Both could make your eyes water If you were too close I’d been out on the Redrock Moving cattle from one section To new pasture on the Pantois River Trying to scrape together enough money To trade my old truck for one with Fewer holes in the floorboards I’m not sure what set her off But I know my short answer to her first Slice of words was no help I poured myself a cup of coffee Sat down at the table across from her And listened as she told me She hadn’t seen me changing fast enough To suit her tastes and that I was never Going to get it…. Now I am not sure what “it” was So maybe she is right on that point I did however know what I was getting From her right now wasn't an IT I'd ever understand and that mincing onions was prefered to mixing words with Iambe [This message has been edited by Cpat Hair (04-17-2002 10:05 AM).] |

Both could make your eyes water If you were too close ============================= Now I am not sure what "it" was So maybe she is right on that point I did however know what I was getting From her right now wasn't an IT I'd ever understand and that mincing onions was prefered to mixing words with Iambe =============================== thank you poet sir...this moth loves getting her way *L* ... and like your writing...Iambe has many fans here.... would I seem greedy to ask for more?  and I know you already know this...but... I like the ones where she gives "it" to you the way you like "it"   rofl clever analogy of her spice and the onion Capt. TY |

What makes her the cats meow anyway?!! Chris Life is not measured by breaths you take, but by moments that take your breath away. |

Cat Hair~ Oh I just love when lambe tickles your muse! I love the onion analogy and how you started and ended with it. I echo the above, more more!*hugs* ~Krista Your beautiful words & creativity allow me to connect with the same in myself. |
