As you listen with your eyes You undress my private thoughts Hidden in wordly disguise I am naked to be seen So that every blemish Is scrutinized on screen Formulate your opinions Then pin them on this donkey A number in the minions Now is the time to tear this down Remove the pins that stupefy On the floor in puzzling shreds Every who, what, where, how and why If you ever wonder why I express myself this way It’s because I will not cry And no, I don’t seek pity Or your feelings of remorse It is just my empathy As I dress myself again And paste those shreds together I finally find the when Now is my time to leave behind The pin-pricked ass tacked on your wall My words in tears have all run dry This party’s over... Goodbye to all "If this grand panaorama before me is what you call God... then God is not dead." |

When I got to the line (you know which one that I am referring to! lol) I didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Okay, I'll admit it! I laughed! ~ The was so clever ~ yet sad. Tomorrow is a Saturday Night, and as Pink sings, "Let's get the party started!" When things get us down, there is always something coming around the corner that makes us glad we're still in the game of life. God bless you!  EA |
