lets be a movie

Post by the mingo » February 3rd, 2012, 1:42 pm

she said i was a new flat school in 1956
i said back you're part of africa the jungle where the pavement ends looking to be fed or fished -
ice fishing maybe
she said my Daddy's tractor is what i dream of
yeah i answered, another colonialist fantasy
she said just like roses ...
but of course they'll put the nuke plants on you, the army nowhere to be seen then -
she said by that time you won't have enough money to get your teeth fixed
you'll be like Pancho Villa's head among the coyotes -
yeah but I'll still be loving you looking into your eyes...
she said I knew you would be difficult wanting to ride your used bicycle
in the road at a young age how ever did your mama cope?
i said she did it all from her chair
and i float but don't fish
she said you always reaching for what nobody can have
i said only way to go
Know what? she goes
What?
Lets go build brushwood forts along the railroad
i'll keep your guns loaded
you pull the triggers
lets be a movie
Doll, you may have found a place of rest but I'm still on the trail.

it's lovely.
`Do you know, I was so angry, Kitty,' Alice went on...`when I saw all the mischief you had been doing, I was very nearly opening the window, and putting you out into the snow! And you'd have deserved it, you
little mischievous darling!

Your poem made me want to put her here. :P
She has that look on her face that a girl would get on her face after reading this.

nice-adventurous one

reason is over rated, as is logic and common sense-i much prefer the passions of a crazy old woman, cats and dogs and jungle foliage- tropic rain-and a defined sense of who brings the stars up at night and the sun up in the morning---
