Copper attracts lightning
Hey all you faithful readers out there.
I love watching my 'views' count go up, and yet, no comments. It's like seeing an empty "take a penny, leave a penny" tray.
Well, here's my two cents worth. Toss 'em into the well, make a wish.
(BTW, I wrote this following Jim Simmerman's "20 Little Poetry Projects" idea, which is why there are numbers. Ask me if you want the guide list...)
Pop Song | |
Trust is a bubble | 1 |
blown from the inside. | 12 |
Snowflake on the tongue, | |
tastes like music that won't stop. | 4, 3 |
Confidence is | |
the last stop of limerence | 11, 8 |
Bubbles burst because I exist. | 9 |
But you can't see what never were. | 3, 10 |
You don't have a lap when you stand. | 17, 7 |
Even James Randi can't sniff out that trick. | 3, 5 |
Feel the glossy sphere that you made, | 3 |
a net, or possibly a screen. | |
When you pay attention, | 2 |
caveat emptor. | 2, 18 |
You can always hear | 3 |
bubbles being filled for free. | |
Bubbles are not yours-- | 6 |
right now, eager solution in a bottle, | 16 |
an unopened can with dreams. | 19 |
the effervescent kind, doesn't go flat. | 13 |
And it will be filled with the same breath | 15 |
that made nothing-man from dust | 14 |
when He knows you're ready. | |
Don't worry, just listen. | 20 |
