A Poet's Soul....

In a jar, somewhere in my kitchen, buried under boxes of junk....
But he yearns for poetry, and I acquiesce....

Electronic Man

Distance bridged by fickle media
Words fly slowly across the page
Soul and thought fear not the implement
Intellect feels and soon it fails

The planet swings again
Connecting outlets to devices
Phrases form solidly into fact
Life not lived without notice

We strive or we contrive
To wring passion from exchange
Affirmation of opposition
There's no meeting in the meaning



There ya go, fine, I did it, and I guess it didn't kill me. But The Bard is still The Man, and #57 is still killer shit.
