Each Lunge |

Each Lunge Each lunge absorbs me like a sponge This place this space my mind would plunge And acting like a sifting hand Each day it takes a little sand And though I plug the dyke each morn I cannot stop the coming dawn Tears of leak begin to peek in All the nooks and crannies I seek It seems to me an ugly crime To place us in a warp of time And age us to a withered doom It does bring on a state of gloom. But heed you those of phantoms stride In giving up there is no pride The joust is what it’s all about Lift your lance your horse is stout. In other words the game is you And you must do what you must do. [This message has been edited by Seymour Tabin (06-12-2003 08:33 AM).] |

I cannot stop the coming dawn Tears of leak begin to peek in All the nooks and crannies I seek and those will be my wisdom lines of way cool for the day. I'll trade ya a *winkiewinkie for em *L* |

In giving up there is no pride The joust is what it’s all about Lift your lance your horse is stout. In other words the game is you And you must do what you must do. Sometimes we just need the reminder... and you wrap it for us in perfect poetry. *S* |

And age us to a withered doom It does bring on a state of gloom. Ahh, but Seymour, by the time we are that withered and gloomy....we will be TOO old to care!! lol. We will just sit out on the porch in our rocking chairs and share tea and warm banana bread. Toast or tarts might be dangerous to our brittle jaw bones..lol. Love this morning's read. hugs, Chris |

In other words the game is you And you must do what you must do Yes Seymour, and sometimes what we must do is not exactly what we want to do . Thank you for the thoughts to ponder this morning. Hugs to you Ethel |

But heed you those of phantoms stride In giving up there is no pride The joust is what it’s all about Lift your lance your horse is stout. ~*~ But if the game is real in feel no contest then, but point of steel to bleed the ink, erase the stink uncover lovers, stand at brink and thread the eye, tell no lie stand beneath the bluest skies feel the sun, then prepare to run leave no stone unturned, 'til day is done. |

It seems to me an ugly crime To place us in a warp of time And age us to a withered doom It does bring on a state of gloom. yes its like a cruel joke sometimes........... what is worse tho, is when i have to be trapped in a warp of society that tells me what 48 is supposed to be like, not that i listen anyhow....... |
