[hometext] => So the album nears its end, just one more post to make it real ~ hopefully we've done it right, and what's within ... you feel
[bodytext] => ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Slide knew that in New Orleans He didn't have a ghost of a chance So northern bound, he left that town To complete his final dance Little else is known about him And there is no further news But shortly after he disappeared ... Chicago started singin' the blues ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~  Slide Cotrelle's Wanted Man ____________________ Well, I done wore out my welcome On the south end of New Orleans When I stuck a man who ran a three piece band So I hopped on a river boat queen Now it's a long ride up the 'Sippi And I hope I ain't been made Cuz the Devil is waitin' in Lou'siana And ya know he's a gonna get paid So muddy water keep on rollin' Won't cha take me to the other side Touch me down on Holy ground And let me live my life Cuz ~ Nobody wants a wanted man And the Devil can't be outran I think he's even hopin' For the soles of these shoes But they're wearin' pretty thin And got some holes in 'em too Feels like I been runnin' Forever and a day If I thought it'd do some good You know I just might pray Lord, take me by the hand Take pity on this wanted man I dabbled in Damballa Cuz I liked the way it sounds Then a bone cast spell sent a man to hell I didn't want him hangin' around Someone said he was a lawman And I don't know if all that's true But I'm already on a couple a posters For a few things I did not do So muddy water keep on rollin Take me somewhere to start again Lead this moth to a man of cloth That I may confess my sins Cuz ~ Nobody wants a wanted man And the Devil can't be outran I think he's even hopin' For the soles of these shoes But they're wearin' pretty thin And got some holes in 'em too Feels like I been runnin' Forever and a day If I thought it'd do some good You know I just might pray Lord, take me by the hand Take pity on this wanted man Yeah, muddy water just keep on rollin Roll me far away from here I wanna set my sights on things done right I want a future much more clear Cuz ~ Nobody wants a wanted man And the Devil can't be outran I think he's even hopin' For the soles of these shoes But they're wearin' pretty thin And got some holes in 'em too Feels like I been runnin' Forever and a day If I thought it'd do some good You know I just might pray Lord, take me by the hand Take pity on this wanted man Ain't nobody nowhere But you Lord ~ Wants a wanted man ____________________ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ [comments] => 3 [counter] => 1019 [topic] => 45 [informant] => Nazmythian [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 10 [ratings] => 2 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => group )

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
