Thanks for the comments and for reading everyone

How my heart
delved.....
....tried to give of itself
Down through
memories,
back through
to the 7's and 9's
eagerly my heart
held out
and hurled all
those "Here" and "Here" and "Here's"

But then I
didn't have
any follow through
when they
took and took
Didn't know
what else
They wanted

My eager heart
tried to keep
things going
a beat "Here"
do it till it makes you

Puke
on all your stars,
looked at long
by all those
everday eager hearts.

How I still
Delve and delve
even after
all I'd seen
amounted to
Nothing left to Give.

"Here are the young men, the weight on their shoulders-
Here are the young men, well where have they been?"

Oh, Im a huge Burroughs fan as well, Doctor Benway is my favorite!

I believe in Science, that all questions will eventually be answered by the drive, ambition and desires of those who realy want to know our place in the universe and how it came about.

I dont believe that we have to wait like starving dogs, whining and begging for "scraps" from the masters' table. If you want to change your life, DO IT YOURSELF, don't surrender everything you are to the machinations of what has kept the human race from real progress for thousands of years.

There, that should do it

Thank you sir,

thanks different, "Easy Bake Heart" sounds cool

Hey thanks, I get your message

It is kinda hard to bake morals in a cold heart Just playing

We all need to SEE different, that is hard with blinders on. Nice poem and message

It's oh, so hard to find what one's duty is
Oh, so hard to see what my "moral obligations" are
I hear you should take an extra serving if going to a bar
Hell!, take an extra serving wherever you are!

(Oh, this isn't a trite pep-talk kids.....)

Such obligations, like clean up this sty
Do try and think ahead while living through the by and by
And don't ever stop thanking that CONROLER in the sky

(Oh, don't think it's a "bait and switch" of an old atheist)

They're examplified by some verbal command dripping with gold
They say do it well or your "I'm not sure what this is" will be sold
There's no reason why, but they'll say you've already beeen told
Their plight is such: I wanna shelter my IDEALS so I'll be the mold!!

(Oh, don't think it's about getting lost, read on for the fix: )

Such obligations are dropped on your shoulders the second you're born
You already feel their tiresome weight before the cord is shorn
Such a mess it makes, such a good reason for the abundance of scorn

(Oh, I think it's a bit confused, did we already try the mix?)

Who's stuck with housework & trickled out economics are involved
Who's been eating everything, all day till the next dawn
Who wants to be here, though that feeling pervades:I Don't Belong
Who needs slapped so hard, enough to pull them away from "The Throng"

(Oh, that went well...so if you wanna build a fire, use these sticks)

Grab your gun, you know who they are, kill any you see
Go totally wild in such a different way, it's the only way to be
Appendages are retrieved, cuz they're the things you wanna keep
They clasp you in chains, lock you away in some filthy light to sleep

(Oh, tell them why you've done it, tell it for some kicks....)

"I had a moral obligation to put that thing under!!"
We had moral obligations, now it's falling, ripped asunder

"I felt a moral obligation to do anything I wanted to!!"
We felt moral obligations, now it's falling, stinking of puke

"I use a moral obligation to excuse everything I do!!"
We used moral obligations while falling, it's the reasons why we lose

Very nice Huck, I wonder too about racism...even though every last one of us bleeds

red.

Perhaps we are just hardwired to be xenophobic to mellonin (<--sp??)

pretty sexy Tammy

Nice piece, please show more of your loom
