edited February 2007 in Poetry, Prose, Music & Art
After a long break, Beal Streets' muscles ooze
together, freezing in the light. Lungs pinking
in the friction, memory citing things not new
now known. We are Gods among existence.
The planet, our creation. Why deny it's heaven
always sought? Why deny the right oblivion?

When you can train your heart to break like dogs to dinner bells
Why do you not set it just right? Why choose your lowest,
defaming your gold wings?

Set free bells, the parent/teacher/preacher-taught.
Set free the love you see in walls where glass reflects.
Leave yourself a message like you'd leave a lover lost
by your own hand. You are always right.

    wow me with your poetry and mend my broken heart

    justice has no meaning without beauty in our lives

    or loss of love

    sometimes i feel like i'm fixin' to live again

    i think i'll listen to some memphis blues

    :):):)
    Down the street you can hear her scream youre a disgrace
    As she slams the door in his drunken face
    And now he stands outside
    And all the neighbours start to gossip and drool
    He cries oh, girl you must be mad,
    What happened to the sweet love you and me had?
    Against the door he leans and starts a scene,
    And his tears fall and burn the garden green

    Very pretty darlin.

    I think the second stanza would stand better as just that first line.

    good stuff. absolutely marvellous.
    "this one, anytime I say love if you wanna say love, uh, say it, and if you say it you might as well say it loud, and if you don't feel like sayin' it, don't say it, but if you feel it, certainly say it..."

    NOTE: Everything I write in the P,P&M section are intended to be songs, not poetry.
