New Poem (on the short side)

[lizzytysh]

Dear BM ~

I love the sadly. So Fall'ish for our theme. The wistfulness of time passing. Why the comma, though ? Or, does that need to stay for the obtusity?

Lizzie - take any calculated risk today?

Hi Dame Chi. Yes, I have . I came in here. Barefoot.


~ Calculating another risk

[lizzytysh]

Wow, Goddess Manna. I LOVED the Sandy. Makes me want to be a better YouTuber. I see a link for a Kitaro one that I'm going to check out there, too. So relaxing and beautiful. Sublime. I saw some political commentary when the big eagle wiped out the peaceful bird in the sky and glared down at the man sitting peacefully beneath the tree.

I laughed at the amazing link-ups of visuals by whoever did the Tom Waits song. Have we selected a theme song, yet? Is that not it?


~ Demi Lizzy [still looking for another calculated risk ~ maybe getting to work late again is enough for now ]

[damellon]

Lizzy - is this arriving at work late again or getting to work some overtime again? Well done with the bare feet. Keep going.

[lizzytysh]

It was arriving late, but somehow miraculously, on time . Guess it was my little reward for moving on .

Good morning, girls. Re the riddle of the cuc, I see our Damellon (gracias) has solved it. Heads were a bit hazy after last shindig so...... Still, it's a shame that a half choir may be singing in disarray somewhere. Now it's back in the garden, hopefully it's whipped the runner beans into shape. They really were off-key last time, you know.

Interesting fella that Sandy, Mandy. Is he really someone's wife, Lizzy?

sadly
I have wandered off
with my short side
hanging down

BM, you're lookin' good again!

[lizzytysh]

I love it, GChristine ! So many images spring to mind. Yet, still so complete in itself. Each line has its own tragi-term.

[Now to figger out your question to me... so that I might properly answer . Am I just being obtuse, again?]

[Christine]

Sorry, Lizzy, thought you said Sandy was married to a certain someone. But perhaps I made that up.

I don't remember making this.... but doesn't it look like us? The Sand Dance....

Ha ~ You're right, Christine. I did. How soon we forget... . Well, yes, I reckoned so... though I may be wrong. Living in the boonies, you'll understand my using "reckoned" ; though I've got to believe that the Cal boonies differ from the Flo ones.

Looking forward to seeing the Sand Dance. Gotta wait till tonite, dang it. Aha. I see you're a quick-change artist, too... from being a band to being the Sand Dancers .

Sandy
wandered off
when he came back
he was nobody's wife

(final sort of two lines without permission)

Will the plug be pulled?
Will the circle be unbroken?
Will we ever overcome?

Got to take a lie down. Back later

[lizzytysh]

OH-oh. Some serious competition has just arisen, from the Chi, GChri .

Let us know when you've returned to stand-up .

[Manna]

Dam, I don't remember who said it, but some demigod somewhere said that young poets imitate and old poets steal. Of course, being a goddess puts your existence outside of age. And if you believe in unity, then you know that what Leonard writes is what you write.

Sandy wandered sadly
toward the short side

[lizzytysh]

Of course, being a goddess puts your existence outside of age.

Gotta love that latitude .

So far, it's looking like this may need to be put to a vote. Unless there arrives one final, definitive version.

So much unsaid, so much unspoken, so much room for indwelling, with the mood intact, in yours, GManna .

[damellon]

My short sandy head hanging down
I have wandered
Offside? Often?
Sadly.

[lizzytysh]

Oh, dear... are you perchance looking for feedback, ChiG? I love you dearly... however...
I feel it's a tad too wordy.

On all of these, of course, I've no idea what anyone else may think... just giving you my own.

If I may add several lines to your queries...

Will the plug be pulled?
Will the circle be unbroken?
Will we ever overcome?
Or will we publish
and perform
in the Greek kalends?

[Wondered how I might manage that ... next ?]


~ DGLizzy

[damellon]

OK Lizzy, what about?

Sandy,
I have wandered offside.
Often?
Sadly.

Also, on the Egyptian video, I bagsey being the one playing the Rickenbacker guitar. My personal coach can teach me a convincing mime for when we play along to the backing tape. Any choreographers among us? What's Gadafi doing there?
