Array ( [sid] => 54949 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Writing while under the influence [time] => 2004-07-06 01:14:05 [hometext] => I'm only drinking milk...really. It's warm and gross. [bodytext] => This is an attempt at a poem
but i'm really not in the mood
so i'll jabber and make things rhyme
until my brain is totally screwed
....
It's really not as easy as it appears
this takes a lot of thinking
but for those ones who like honesty
it also involves some drinking
....
Though, writing under the influence
isn't necessarily right
Poe, a genious some have said
but is marrying your cousin bright?
....
Okay, so i admit,
some of his works are fine
but what is with all the big words
all of which i have to look up to define
....
So i'm not the brightest crayon in the box,
i write only what i know
and so maybe that isn't much either
but atleast it i admit to being slow
....
I'll take my time and chew my words
crunch down and suck the flavor
i may stick to the hamburger and fries of writing
but it's something everyone can savor
....
Okay, now this poems sounds a bit defensive
and i guess that's understandable,
writing isn't an easy thing
but atleast it's exapandable
....
I can stretch the truth,
but it's not lying
It's really an easy concept,
in the writing world we call it "implying"
....
Yes, you know what i mean,
when one thing "implies" another
like when "you remind me of someone."
really means, "you look like your mother."
....
We can skate around the truth,
by using big words to feel smart
but sometimes it just isn't as fun
as several tiny words from the heart
....
Oh, yes i should of ended there,
that last verse did make a nice ending
but i'm still in the mood for endlings rhyming
so this poem is...pending.
....
May it will never end,
what a stroke of luck
i should end it on a stupid note
because i'm just that sort of schmuck
.....
So this is the conclustion to my little poem
it's going to cause some frustration
because the last line isn't going to rhyme
didn't see that coming, did you?

No I did NOT see it coming!
That poem was so clever, C2C! Its was fun & conversational; you could have "babbled" out a dozen more stanzas and kept my complete attention. (Of course, I'm ADHD, so that's more of an accomplishment then it appears on the surface!)
Thanks for the smile!
(By the way - I hear its a sin to drink warm milk without dousing it with loads of chocolate, first!)
