When the gleam in your eye
Muscles your thinking
And stench musk’s
Your achievement
To feel you
Control words
That matter
For ever

When the words
Spirited
Allowed to blemish
In your own backyard
Of memory
Control your mind

Failing your understanding

When did you move
The sky to
Drown
Thousands
When were you so assertive
And so helpless

And when was the world made of people

For politicician's to fail

For their own ends

not puppets dangling from a politicians control we the people freedom why did we first come to this country to be who and what we are and can be. within limits good honest hardworking loving families notfearing a puppetmasters control others taking for their gain instead of working honestly for it. yet didnt we take. past is hard to forget, pride needs to get swallowed and forgiveness needs to be felt. life is too short for fighting. cost to high for living greed takes all honesty take the fall. wake up america thanks for sharing. sorry for babbling on. but no one seems to see whats happening here in our own back yards

Dave, when? My belief, it never was. Only drowning pharoh and weeping mothers and some fortunate "saints" and poets know the truth. A masterpiece.

your poetry is like a dig...you know there are treasures buried deep within...it sometimes just takes patience and careful work...you have rewarded your readers well with this one...and the title it way too cool!

Dave, I hope my interpretation on this one was correct -- let me know if not, okay?

It was aimed at me Ladies and Gentlemen

I was getting too full of myself and I needed to just ask myself

what the hell I thought

I was

And what were the words

Worth

Dave, I stick by my interpretation -- this applies to all of us! Still think its a masterpiece but don't go getting egotistical now 'cuz you're not a drowning pharoh, etc.......
