Every day is a great big ape, holding you down and stripping your ambition ,and everywhere there is noise Street noise, Sterile noise, The Noise of progress Your proud you trash your room You improve the view I'll wear what fits because whatever grows in this glove is his alone to give you mention Love you throw the word around like a rag doll in the mouth of a rabid dog I never thought you would really listen now i dont know what else to say but I am proud I will trash this room I will improve the view New lovers are nervous and tender, but smash everything. For the heart is an organ of fire |

i had to stop reading while the laugh went through me. then i read and realized that it was quite interesting. i am not sure if there are two "speakers" or one, but its a bit of brain work either way, nice. -majnu |

I like your way of looking at things -- strong and unique.....but you gotsta work on sense pauses with poet tools, stuff like line breaks and spacing, or else release the lowly comma from its Babylonian Captivity.....if you don't, methinks some good work will end up unread because people who would have liked the rest of it, will wander away because they don't understand the lack. ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸ ¸¸ºº> ~~~(¸¸ER¸¸ºº> ______________Ratleader______________ |

LOL. I trash the rooms of my mind every day, but still like pretty things....like the dandelions some try to eradicate. Enjoyed this view today. |
