So I'm Cheesey Tonight

.more than that.

Who will save me when i am dying?

    imagination perpetual?

Untitled image physical

    some odd number contaminated?

Play me an even numbered myth

Call it my body outside a soul

      not a diatribe

A multitude of standards

      more than this....

Who will save me when i am living?

Who can show me more than this?

    from nothing

More than this

Ha... I almost forgot about this one. Thanks. I love the song on this one. Thanks again for reminding me of this one.... Roxy Music is awesome.

We can only save ourselves I believe, but only if we're worth it.
So maybe the question should be "am I worth saving?"
You should answer yes of course, because everyone is worth saving.
(Certain limitations, exclusions and exceptions apply.)

Not even Tigers can save themselves... it takes at least two to save a species. Worth is completely irrelevant if it's endangered or extremely hard to come by. But of course, Tigers do have to eat... the wild boar or forest ibex doesn't catch it self. I guess the natural order would say... if you can hunt you are worth saving (yourself).

for now but not forever... less someone else to, you know, have tiger sex with to make them furry little tiger cubs and s**t.

A point of view I had not considered.

Oh - I did't see the video under the poem. Love that song.
Yes - that's what I though you were getting at in the poem too. Also a little jab at religion "Who will save me when i am dying?
imagination perpetual?"
Nice poem.

It is a great song is it not? The music video is a little too 1980's but, eh... as tacky as the 80's were I still love that decade anyway.

Well, they were a glitter rock band after all. :-)
That Avalon album is one of my all time favorite albums and in particular "More than this".

[Davidgeo]

You have good taste in music Chip... that's a pretty solid song to have as one of your favorites.
