such an interesting piece...has such movement in it's beat, and being more about not moving, being apathetic....letting things just happen----we stand too idle these days, i believe...we need more voices to be raised in defiance of what we have become as a society....
nicely done here.
powerful.

Good use of words. I liked the way you compared the two unlikeliest of things: lemons, and elephants. This would be really cool to hear out loud. I love your poetry. Do you perform your poetry at poetry readings?
You need to write a book. The poem. The short statements made me want to know and read more. Each statements took the reader to places and thoughts. Thank you my friend for sharing the amazing poetry.

You should. You make the words dance and you are welcome.
This is one of my favorites of yours becuz I like the way your rhymes here are more unusual & intriguing. As usual, I only understand bits & pieces, but there are definite flashes of brilliance here! You are the best one to do this type of writing since I've been on this website (2 years) *wink! wink!* Fondly, Margie

My man. You took this to new levels. Said F that and made new ones, lol. I've read a ton of your stuff and this just crushed it. You took rhyming and named it b***h. Well played bro.

You would like it here bro. It's small and secluded. A good place to relax and reflect. Likewise.

You are a raving uniqueist.. ok, no such word, but you crack eggs and make word omelets so quickly! I've read the above twice.. have a headache now - understand a word or two of it, or, not. What there is about it is - the buzz it leaves, a journey taken to somewhere, goodness knows where but the dervish ride was exciting.
One day, please publish a manual of 'how to.. ' with your poems! Brilliant but .. can't think of the word. :)

As it is nothing but an exact formula of mechanics... No direction or fresh idea needed... Just a flow landscape... Very happy you enjoyed this one, thanks much
*sigh* I practically had to take a nap after "sounding out" this one!
You are a wizard with the rhyming of words that actually connect in a crazy non-patternish pattern...
I'm gettin' my money back on that gym membership, I just need to stand up when I read your work, read out loud and my cardio is done for the day!!!

I feel a slow talking,
contrast to your manic words.
Smiling in the discourse.
Rapid use of words,
while beguiling,
showing your set limitations.
Some would think that an insult,
but we both should disagree.
Your words are ready to fly.
Ever write to a song?

Such an extraordinary talent which really needs to be applauded every single time... This one was so fast specially the first half one... But the pace was finally maintained in the last stanza and it nailed it... CLAP CLAP :)

Thank you... Thank you very much, as always. The first half IS very fast... Especially spoken, heh
Savage! Again, poor me, I don't understand your high quality wordplay. I can't still draw out any meaning I mean. Though it doesn't stop me from applauding your talent to layout such extraordinary pieces. It's really catchy. Great stuff
