Just a confused monosyllable

Post by joel » March 20th, 2006, 10:52 am

Just a confused monosyllable
judging between the adjective ideals of
justice and the
jeers of bare minimum. What is
just? Address the prayer:
Jesu, fill us with your love—or
journey on, my wayward son.

entry: Mourning
broke the past week’s night watch.
Just to break it, justice broke it—
minimal profundity, loud profound—
jazzy freight train rhythm riding
on the City of New
Jerusalem
.
Journal</center>
just how confused the
jury must be.
Just and
Jest are only separated by a vowel shift; a case of linguistically imprudent
jurisprudence perhaps.
Jack and she go up to be the ones who fetch the water;
Just goes too (like me and you), no matter what comes after.

Just had to respond to this one. What can I say. Love the lay out and the twist of just and jest. This one is really good.

Love lots
