cheshire (Mary Vogt):
If I had met you on some journey
where would we be now
If we had met on some eastbound train
through some black sleeping town
would you have worn your silken robes
all made of royal blue
would I have dressed in smoke and fire
for you to see through
If we had met in some darkened room
where people do not stay
but shadows touch and pass right through
and never see the day
would you have taken me upstairs
and turned the lamplight low?
would I have shown my secret self
and disappeared like the snow
Oh, I could have played your little girl
or I could have played your wife
I could have played your mistress
running danger down through your life
I could have played your lady fair
all dressed in lace like the foam from the sea
I could have been your woman of the road
as long as you did not come back home to me
But as it is, we live in the city
and everything stays in place
instead we meet on the open sidewalk
and it's well I know your face
we talk and talk, we tell the truth
there are no shadows here
but when I look into your eyes
I wonder what might have been there
because if I had met you on some journey
where would we be now?

PING

cpc (Christopher P. Colby):
What happens to a dream deferred?
Does it dry up
like a raisin in the sun?
Or fester like a sore --
And then run?
Does it stink like rotten meat?
Or crust and sugar over --
like a syrupy sweet?
Maybe it just sags
like a heavy load.
OR DOES IT EXPLODE?
- Langston Hughes
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
dachurch (Douglas A. Church):
when the smack begins to flow
then I really dont care anymore
about all you jim-jams in this town
and everybody putting everybody else down
and all the politicians making crazy sounds
and all the dead bodies piled up in mounds
- "Heroin", Lou Reed
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
dschmidt (Dan Schmidt):
"I'd rather be the third person hit by a bullet than the first two." - Steinert
"We have to take things as they are. And moreoever, to say that we
invent values means neither more nor less than this; that there is no
sense in life a priori. Life is nothing until it is lived; but it is
yours to make sense of, and the value of it is nothing else but the
sense that you choose." -- Sartre
Now I'm starting to spout philosophy in my .plans as well...

jtkohl (John T Kohl):
Think SNOW!
"Ice is nice, and snow makes dough."
-Orthopaedist's creed

mars (Anita):
When the moon was young, when the month was May,
When the stage was hung, for my holiday,
I saw shining lights, but I never knew
They were you, they were you, they were you.
When the dance was done, when I went my way,
When I tried to find rainbows far away,
All the lovely lights seemed to fade from view,
They were you, they were you, they were you.
Without you near me, I can't see,
When you're near me, wonderful things come to me.
Every secret prayer, every fancy free,
Everything I dared, for both you and me,
All my wildest dreams, multiplied by two,
They were you, they were you, they were you.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
needle (Zanzibar B. McFate):
Scintillate, scintillate, globule orific,
Fain would I fathom thy nature specific.
Poised like a gem in the ether capacious,
Strongly resembling a gem carbonaceous.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
nrp (Niki R Pantelias):
"Let the cold wind blow
Rough night in Jericho
Let the walls fall in
Guess I'll be saying bye love again
Rough night in Jericho"
-- Dreams So Real
"Rough Night In Jericho"
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
qjb (Emanuel 'Jay' Berkenbilt):
(sung to the tume of Row, Row, Row Your Boat)
Propel, propel, propel your craft
Placidly down the solution
Ecstatic, ecstatic, ecstatic, ecstatic
Existance is but an illusion.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
rosencra (John R Buck):
"Club Med Sucks
Authority sucks.
I hate golf.
I wanna play lacrosse."
-"Club Med Sucks"
Camper Van Beethoven
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
