Beneath vast canopies of questions lives a sage with indigestion indisposed to current cause addicted to the kudos sought while debt's harrassments serve him true imposing difficulties anew. Beneath the glare of pensive stars near intellectual thought frontiers he biotechnically regards wisdom of past million years but the supercomputers of Mars he cybernetically fears. Above the machinating eons he dreams of conquering many worlds and cultivating screaming trees on alien soils where he would hurl enticements he has since achieved and over which existence grieves. Intuitively he hacks away dogmatically spending his days engrossed in his absurd creations while basking in intense elation. He unceremoniously forgets the thoughts he diligently rejects. Thrice embalmed in selfsame shrines he dwells eternally entwined amidst his cornucopian treasures refusing conferred times of leisure. But he lacks the thing he'll never get-- my undivided deep respect. |

Another great poem!!!!! "He unceremoniously forgets the thoughts he diligently rejects. Thrice embalmed in selfsame shrines he dwells eternally entwined amidst his cornucopian treasures refusing conferred times of leisure. But he lacks the thing he'll never get-- my undivided deep respect." LOVED the ending!  |

Thanks Mysteria: There are lots of folk out there sitting in ivory towers or otherwise feeling superior to others. Glad you enjoyed! Thanks Red! Hey Red! I like the way you use that text color to go with your name! Thanks for the feedback. See you back at critical analyses! Thanks! God bless! |

 (big hugggssssss) Oh Radrook, it is so very saddening to see all the biggest positions being taken over by those who are not truly qualified! (sad sigh) Those I respect the most are those who for good of others fights to makes a stand then rises and keeps his or her promise after gaining the opportunity! This is excellent, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Radrook, thank you for sharing!  May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..." |

Hi Noah! I agree buddy. Seems like the good guys lose too often doesn't it? But that doesn't mean that the bad guys can have our respect! Thanks for your reply my friend. God bless! [This message has been edited by Radrook (10-28-2002 06:05 PM).] |
