There is your love of escape and my love of you hangs from its throat Am I to count blood spots that are heavier than my worry Selfishness clings to your back as you float youre not swimming And so i'm drowning In the escapists paradise you call reality growth upon your self stunted Charter your demise shall i? Frequently failing to check in forgotten exsistence of a care so great There is anger in fields waiting for your return ~There~ i shall pick each bud and blow pollen into incapable lung Fighting words to destroy all that is ours Three pm wake up call and you sleep through it ~always~ Much rather spend life asleep? than face the day with it's claws clinging Lies in wait of his next escape moments from waking Pathetic choices made in selfish incapable resentment. Stop the noise! Put it all down and get out. [This message has been edited by gemjop (06-25-2003 06:12 PM).] |

I yell at me all the time. I love the title and concept, m'friend. Would that we were all brave enough to record and share such conversation. Love your work, lady.  |

"But time is on your side, It's on your side right now" thanks a lot  , now you've got me going. Do you have split personalities?, because I sure as heck do. We've got a lot in common. I loved it girl. I said I'm going to buy a gun and start a war, |

Beautful write. Just the exquisite realism that you write with is enough to send chills down my spine. I couldn't help feeling a bit enraged. Not at the words, just the overall feeling of the poem seems that way and I suppose the words that you wrote reflectd those feelings and I in turn internalized those feelings. I loved it. Can't wait to read more of your glorious work. Junior Member, yv |

You tell em, Little Lady!!! You don't deserve to be treated like this!!! You know that, don't you? You're too good and sweet to be treated badly.  Heart hugs to you, Sweet friend   Ethel Mae [This message has been edited by garysgirl (06-25-2003 07:24 PM).] |
