Yup... can't go dragging 'round that place or they'll be nagging... and one more echo bouncing around in your head's just what you don't need. *S* Just check all your problems at the door You've sold your soul, can't worry more Until the clock gives you reprieve From one hell to another when time to leave. I like this very much, lady... even if I don't like the merry-go-round. *S* |

Jellybeans, I like the way you wrote the poem, but I don't like to have the feeling you were writing about. "Love makes the world go around" |
