...on the bow
of the boat that's afloat
only in the here and now,
I ask, is anything worth finding,
worth staying for, or binding?
Or should I sail away into the morrow,
Excited, without sorrow,
at the possibilities before me.

Better than the usual crap posts. Finally, some insightful and deep thinking.

Freestyle, Prod. The 'New Topic' window is my scratch pad.
In other words, yes, I do that sometimes. Odd(and bad) rhymes, strange short stories, and other tidbits and clips.
I thought you all needed stirred up today. Especially the finals crowd, they need something to laugh at. And perhaps join in with, as personally, I always found that test time and route memorization was off-set well by a good novel or creative jaunt when stress was high.

She takes the money from her purse,
and pays the man behind the counter.
Gets her bag, and wanders out the door.
She gets to the apartment,
Sits down in the kitchen,
And waits for the stove to warm.
And the children are calling her home.
Wondering again if they'll see her tonight.
Not understanding why they're goin hungry.
Falling and failing, her children were wailing,
For the mother they could not find.
Try as they may, no one would tell them
She wasn't coming back this time.
If they only knew, the needle was falling.
If they only knew, the angels were calling.
Calling, calling, calling her away.
-Edit-I'm adding a little more. I'll get it closer to finished, then bump this, as if anyone cares.

--Something just came up, so I don't have time to finish that one.
It's apparently going to be a song. According to the guy in my head,
anyway. |
I like that better than the first (not that the first wasn't good).

I hate poems. I'm not saying that they're stupid or anything, but
I don't get anything out of a whole bunch of words that rhyme.

*sniff sniff* I smell another Forum Poetry Contest. How about it guys?
We already had a haiku contest, lets rock some free verse, or perhaps
rhymed pentameters....
Sorry....just another idea to lighten up T&O.

Thats kind of where I was going with this, roots. Except, without the contest part. Just a place for random blurbs.
