STOP!
The beating of the drum
and breathe deep
the bottled air.
Through broken cage,
his hands become larger
and your blind faith,
his responsibility.
A life hangs in the
balance and the scale
tips in your favour.
Forget your perfect offering, there is a crack in everything, that's how the light gets in. - Leonard Cohen

  • hmm
    still reading into this one
    It has really intrigued me
    The only thing I enjoy is having no feelings....being numb rocks!

    And I won't make the same mistakes
    (Because I know)
    Because I know how much time that wastes
    (And function)
    Function is the key
  • :) I'd like to see what you come up with, see what you are seeing and if it's similar to what it's really about. Then, maybe, I'll tell you what I was thinking when I was writing it. ;)

  • well, I saw a few things, but I believe (hinted from the tittle) that it is about somebody who's life is in the hands of a surgeon (hmm sp?) and that he is 'your savior'. He is going to be successful.

    DING! DING! DING! DING! DING! :D We have a weiner!

    My Pop's dropped in the middle of the street last week (heavy drinker & smoker :rolleyes:) and is going under the knife next week. All in all, he's in good spirits, given the circumstances and although it's scary to have any surgery, I'm sure he'll pull through just fine. :) Thus, this widdle poem. Thanks for taking the time to read and comment, depop. Always nice to see from you! :)
