there were no posts after it when I read 'Brother'
I was responding solely to the poem because I really was taken with it - maybe because I supplied the word : )

I was responding solely to the poem because I really was taken with it - and because I'd supplied the word : ) somehow, I felt good about that.
Well, we got it ironed out over there. Thanks for your support.
I thought your brother one was beautiful too Edgar. I copied it into my favorite poems file-I hope that's okay- remember you said I could do that?
i rock alone
when the big time stars
have all gone home
call me on the phone
when you see their cars
have left and gone
ill tell you that i love you
but dont come around tonight
its not that i dont want you
im like a bad dog that bites
hey jude
where are you now
its been a long time
i wrote this letter
i tried to tell you
my life is better
the words you sang
went into my heart
and they did start to be better
thanks jude
for peerless times
we acted as we listened
we crossed the threshold
we were the generation
the timid went bold
the songs you gave us
had helped to save us
they made our lives so much better
The Super Market...
Pricecheck on aisle 7!!
The chocolate bars need packing
Knock off at 11
But now the wine cases need stacking
Homeless man walks in and smells like 3 day old pork crackling
Quick hurry, call the police, call the police, Murray!!
So police come and take the homeless man and 'place' him into paddywagon after giving him good head smacking

"I bum is hurting" says Katrina
"My ring is stinging" says Mary Anne
"My lips are sore" says Melena
"My hand is tired" says Pamn
"I can't stop from walking funny" says Melissa
"That is nothing, Melissa, I can only walk on all fours now becuase of the pain" says Maria
"My eye socket is hurting" says Karissa
"I NEED ICE IN MY PANTIES NOW!!!" says Sophia
"I'm done, thank all you ladies" says Matteos
Now this thread had fallen so far down
That I thought I'd bring back up this stuff
Lest it be forgotten and drown
In threads of philosophic fluff
Religious banter also hides
The words as well we know them
But now when I log on I find
The thread spontaneous poems
we has our lulls
when everyone mulls
the other threads
but we always return
the others to spurn
so like wonder bread

So long as Edgar is profound
and sprinkles pearly words around,
never fear lest our interest wane
be sure, it forever will remain

skirting my life
the truth at hand
was i a lucky man
who saw that strife
like a thorny crown
a crutch to weigh me down
as i
realize
the truth
the real prize
inside
i wear
like a humble robe
dear you go your way
if it takes you home
here we'll stay
and i will burn the crown
and all will be serene
once more
jelly bean red
i like your face
your force
your grace
jelly bean yellow
i didnt mean to hurt you
didnt predict the end
hope shes there to comfort you
jelly bean green
so doggone mean
i once despised you
so tell me howve you been
i hear the slow lost piano
i hear your shaded voice
come into my old room
as though i have no choice
wending through
like a corkscrew
worming into my heart
nutballs
got to fall
can you hear the squall
storming through
vast and true
nutjobs
got to bob
a cork in the sob
of crying rain
die in vain
the ghosts on bones among the living
keepers of thoughts and fears
rustle among crowds silently at tables
sit tallying arrears
vegemite
spread it light
eat it on bread
dont say no
to red jello
eat it i said
eat your food
dont be crude
eat it i said
eat your food
dont be rude
eat it i said
hamburger meat
sloppy joe treat
eat it on bread
peanut butter
please dont mutter
eat it i said
