Suspicions that there’s no niche for me Have become my belief I search for attitude improvement But I find no relief So I now hold a one way ticket To a world lacking light A brief glimpse forth is more than enough To fold my knees with fright Yet still I board a downward spiral Where there’s no place to hide Perhaps a few speed bumps might save me But someone waxed the slide [This message has been edited by suthern (05-08-2003 03:11 PM).] |

Ouch! Had times like that, yes a few, where your biggest entertainment is watching to see how bad it'll get.... Well written -- can't say I enjoyed the poem, but did relish the way you captured such an unenjoyable feeling. Some things ain't to be enjoyed! ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸ ¸¸ºº> ~~~(¸¸ER¸¸ºº> |

SweetSuthernGal~ Well, you're certainly 'waxing' poetic in this piece~ Better come join me on the merry-go-round ... TWO dizzy blondes on a whirly-gig ... now what's poetic about THAT ? *Huglets* ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ |
