Hate the world my father said
'Cause one day son you'll fall down dead
Then in the gutter you will lay
Savaged by dogs gone astray

Hate the world the priest said
'Cause the mongrels all wan't you dead
The afterlife it ain't much fun
But you'll end your life at the end of a gun

Hate the world the old man said
'Cause every other day youll wet the bed
You carry your balls around in a sack
Then one day god will demand you back

Love the world the hippy said

'Cause all around you want you dead
'Cause one day youll lose your head
But maybe someone you hate'll get it instead

  Hello darkness, my old friend,
I've come to talk with you again,
Because a vision softly creeping,
Left its seeds while I was sleeping,
And the vision that was planted in my brain
Still remains
Within the sound of silence.

bitter poem W, but so well written--as always.
sometimes it seems this way, dont it...
3 sad poems from mr poe today...
let me make you smile...
take care, jm


 The stars shine so bright, now's the time
I close my eyes - soft wind touch my face,
Cool sand upon the place where I once kissed you
And held you close.
Now I will reach for the stars...
Because Oh my love, that's where you are...
Though the storms of black night rage on
I still see your face
I still feel your lips on mine
And though my heart feels all alone without you
I still hear you sing to me
I still hear your voice on the sea...
vertical horizon
