Was everyone in bed on Sun?
I did no comment heard (except Dorthy)
That C, Eb and G they were
Were a minor chord?

Dunno.....
Oh well, on to the next one ?

My trouble comes in form of a conflict
'Tween what's desperate, what must I do?
Do I finish this crash-hot WOLish poem?
Or satisfy desperate rush to the loo?

Gotta rush...?

I read it I can hear your soft voice.
Thank You it is really lovely.

Thanks Rachel - there was no underlying idea other than identifying with the theme, but it's good when you get thoughts about a poem that may add body to it. Glad you liked it.

Ok David, that's a thought! An intrusive mood is ok by me Rachel.

Thanks for stopping by and liking Steve, Jennifer, Jon, Whiskey, Heart of Lead and Dorothy.

I have to say I am with David in this. I have collection of books spilling out all over the place and love bookshops and libraries.
A great poem Phil. I can't help that the natural rhythm of this piece lends it self well to being the lyrics of a song.
Nice one

Not too bad Jacob me ol'mukker. Can't walk, in pain a lot. BUT my daughter is about to give birth and that is beyond anything. I'm sure you know. Thanks for the ointment you sent me/ It is having an ameliorative effect but not enough. I need surgery and i'm seeing the surgeon on the 28th. More I read about Colorado, the more I like it. VERY progressive for a western state. All the best now and forever to you and your family. John

Got myself the biggest body I can find
No way another one will fit in...?

You've really excelled yourself here!!!!! Funny as usual but also very clever to have seen the poetic possibilities in something so unpoetic.Well deserved congrats. (Surely you could have found something more useful than loo paper? There would be gallons of sea water, perhaps moss and some kind of seaweed.)
Again had a good laugh, for which thanks.
