Qryos Posted September 8, 2007 Report Share Posted September 8, 2007 Burning asphalt imbedded with printsthat burn the nostrilsand so it's another day. In L.A.Hear the freeway? That passes above beyond.Our dreams spray-painted on walls close byhappy commuters with cafe lattes whine with bright wheelsQuick! Don't look don't see the primitive life...It's just a drive-by, a passing frown at natives.See though? See for a moment?Dark and frightened and hopeful and wishing just trying to capture maybe a thoughtof those existing behind the freeway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Qryos Posted September 11, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 11, 2007 ~ Just a dab of yolk-type humor Sorry! I'm just trying to crack a joke & sometimes...Well, it's hard {That's right. I didn't say boiled! Come on... Gotta coddle sometimes!}OK, O'm let it it go & stop. It's a wicked wind that whispers RUN!!!My feet stay where they're leadAnd so yet my mind crawls with every leaf that fliesAway with my skin and eyes.... Don't know where that came from! Like a burp sometimes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
