BOING

by FTS Miles   Feb 17, 2005


It's the strangest thing…
I read the Shrub's
(so-called) thoughts
on social security
and can think only
"BOING!"

Not "Ooof!" or "DOH!"
and definitely nothing so
remotely eloquent as
"Here we go again!" or
"He’s destroying our nation…."

No… just "BOING!"
And contemplating it further,
I really do think that says it all….

    I know, Pinkalias... it was a bit of an odd poem, but it was written as it came and I simply didn't know what more to do with it.

    Suicide: The First Lady is into horticulture, so hopefully the name will fit right at home with him. ;)

    Not your usual style of writing, but still appreciated. I do admire the piece and think it well written, but it's not one of my favorites from you. The reason why I say this is because it seems unfinished to me, not in length but in each stance. (To me) it seemed more words could be exloited into each stance and that they could have created more meaning and depth if added on to.
    Nevertheless, well done. I liked your message and the way you put your own meaning into it, So still appreciated.

    Classic. This is the first of your's I have read, Miles, and I think I'm going to enjoy the rest.

    I like the way your mind works already.
