New forms of Hello Look like entombed eyes Were we naïve Utopianism? In the face of evil? You whispered some of the best lyrics Begotten by nature and travel Holding me spellbound Like some lifetime recreation Discovering a lump of self-rising dough It takes a lifetime to discover you Yet we live in different worlds? Memorizing great corn crops Yours and mine Free and tender looked me right in the eye Glued to theory diverts the bill Whipped in some seaside library Dealing out favors in a mid-eastern market Where I couldn’t bear to give you up Lacks verification Owning suitable etiquette But I saw a girl in the parlor, blond ponytail Filling up your coffee cup Swimming in early years She owned infatuation And the copyright to your smile Life’s dark and irregular trick Giving me way to much caffeine I hate this devastating appetite For tending bar & raising violets Noticing you walk in Looking quit different She looks good on you Respect and politeness, frisk my pockets Chaining me to a bottomless pit For deserting shadows of words Hunger is a horrible thing A slap in the face, at best I walk with the program of Phantom of the Opera Wondering if I’d look ridiculous As a seventeen year locust on your pedestal Always wondering about a quiet collation And that anxious look a gal gets When passing an ice cream store I’m adrift on some unknown ocean Waiting for a dove to bring an olive branch Discovering a sentiment worth millions [This message has been edited by LeeJ (01-17-2005 09:41 AM).] |

Respect and politeness, frisk my pockets Chaining me to a bottomless pit For deserting shadows of words Hunger is a horrible thing A slap in the face, at best Hmmm... I remember such a time so good, are your decriptions~~ Monday Morning  M |

Lee, oh my, what a daliesque moment!  You have presented us with great imagery in a heartbreak of a theme, straddling reality and wishful thinking. |

"And that anxious look a gal gets When passing an ice cream store I’m adrift on some unknown ocean Waiting for a dove to bring an olive branch Discovering a sentiment worth millions" ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ You do have a very descriptive way with words. I never noticed a gal’s look at the ice cream store But, I will the next time I’m in one. JL  |
