Huff and Puff and Blow Your House Down

Post by Lightning Rod » May 10th, 2008, 12:13 pm

heartbreak or termites can bring a house down
molds or parasites or creeping dry rot systemic
we can call in the specialists, make repairs on it
pull out the cabinets, pull out the rugs, paint the wall
but if sadness is rotting the timbers, the house will fall
"These words don't make me a poet, these Eyes make me a poet."

I'm not so sure if it's sadness.
Sadness passes for life these days.
People waiting to sign up, to get in.
Maybe it's more a matter of withdrawal,
than sadness.
