Blues player...play for me Bend those strings Un-spoken words That only chosen Knowing ones Can hear...feel me bleed Poet...write for me Let the dead weight of heartache Pour out onto the paper As your sorrows Of forgotten tomorrow's Pours into ink...feel me bleed Singer...sing for me Look life and death in the eye Lyrics inside that make strong men cry Bits of paper and rhyme Find the time Let our anguish find the words To be free Suddenly please...bleed for me Now that you've done All that you can Mr.Blues player, singer, Poet writer man, Combine the three And let me see Just this one last request Please, please...conquer our quest Die for me...feel me bleed Copyright © 2002 Dennis Hicks |

You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Dennis, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..."

we all listen to music for different reasons. You've just shown here that many times, it's for emotional benefits. This was great! Failure isn't failure if a lesson from it is learned ~ KS |

I think that you've captured the anguish of the Blues so very well here. I swore that I heard the saxophone wailing out my name in the background as I read. Good job. -Bob |

Dennis, I love the blues. You have captured the emotion we all have, searching for those creative voices that will reach in and drive us. I am learning so much about poetry from all of the great poets here. Thank you for this great slice of education. I enjoy all poetry and it is hard not to vote for most, but I try to be professional. I must say you deserve this vote. God bless you. Thanx - Tim He that trusteth in his own heart is a fool: but whoso walketh wisely, he shall be delivered. Proverbs 28:26 |
