momma got me a rockin' horse made from slippery elm and painted with lotion from the cravin' tree made me do my boy time in the saddle swallow with my hands tied often in the gallop place giddy up momma said I was bad skin from the storms she knew when she was runnin from jesus in her bentley car bedroom said there were demons too in my eyes when I smiled said they made her love me more than her needle high gravy she spoke me as bone of daddy sin _______________ daark [This message has been edited by Dark Stranger (07-21-2006 09:14 AM).] |

your writing always makes me think too much especially at this Godforsaken hour of the morning so I always read them and rarely comment 'cause I can't think of anything vaguely intelligent to say but this, I love and relate to *smiles* You are terribly talented ~*Sheli*~ By words the mind is winged |

This has got to be the coolest poem I've read all year of this '06. Bravo maestro. I'm not smart, I'm just a tricky dumb person. |

"said there were demons too in my eyes when I smiled said they made her love me more than her needle high gravy she spoke me as bone of daddy sin" Who wouldn't love a boy with demons in his eyes. You always amaze me Stranger. Sheli's right.. you're very talented. |

my daddy said I was born under the sign of the happy wanderer; mother said I was born holding a sign that spelled trouble lol, maybe they were both right and you... DS, were born under the sign of love with the gift of knowing how to make others FEEL 'neath visible skin |
