ALL I REALLY YEARN TO DO IS RING A BELL LOUD ENOUGH SO AS TO YANK READERS BY THERE THROAT AND DO NOT LET GO UNTIL HE FEELS YOU, THE WAY I FEEL ENGLAND!
A BRIDE AND A DOOM
I know that’s what she wants me to be But that’s just not me As I stood on an oak floored alter All of my friends certain I would faultier But no one should ever fault her The poor little lady was made so weak while all the while I wanted her to speak Tell me what bills are due tell me what’s new But especially explain to me how the blind man knew
I must get betrothed for a lot of money I owe So this, to me, was something I had to do, that I know Because Big Black Bruce is a dude you don’t want to owe money to So I pretty much was being made to vomit out “I do” Bruce told me that he wasn’t going to kill me with a knife or a gun He would just make me wish he had used one And let me tell you I was in $1,950 deep Because 80 percent pure heroin in new york city wasn’t cheap
So there stood she, My bride to be With a countenance that counts And nerves of steel for when trouble mounts My only thought was fight, flight or flee Because she was marrying a very “ not me” Yet she always accepts everything I’ve ever done So what do you do when your flesh tells you to run? But look out in the pews Women wearing their fanciest shoes They all came to party after the “I do’s” Yet and still a small voice couldn’t summon my words I refuse But could I stay united with someone who had married a fake? And be forgiven for every errant action I ever make
Don't know what to say 'free', knowing if I knew what to say,it wouldn't have mattered anyway.
I think you own a "Kingdom", visiting it I may not be able to spot the King from the Knights. The same fashion, I am never able to tell pictures from when Picasso painted, him being in good mood or bad!!
My senses however, reading your poems, most often floor me, most often brutally!! This one was gentle, still somewhat bruising!!!
