From: Thomas the Rhymer As we struggle with thoughts of the fittest survival Connecting the dots makes us now Bush's rival To peace and diplomacy, he's but a stranger His long lost romancing is fraught full of danger And so and then thus, as we wake from our sleep What is all this fuss, in the face of the deep? The horizon is calling, let's leave by remaining So as George is falling, evolution's our training... So as his grasp lessens, and 'the people' gain power Hark less the depressents, and free thought may flower And thus and then so, may invention's fruition Relieve us to know that it's fitter to listen. ttr |

He may have, but I ain't seen it yet in the body of his poetry. (Thread titles don't count.) Sorry, Thomas, to be speaking of you in the third person. I think it's really bitchin' that not only does a poet address topical material, but also does it well. You and I have had a few differences in the past (very few), but the quality of your poetry was never the cause of them. You are lots more than a rhymer. I shall depart now before I make you blush. Love the poem (and the politics). |
