Love is blind
You're so fine
You big phat Swine
Teeth not so clean
A funky shade
Of Irish green
A face so pale
A smell so stale
A rump the size of an ocean whale
The walk and stroll
Of an automobile
The stride and glide
Of a semi
The brightness
Of a dim watt bulb
A smile and demeanor
Of a dead frog
Why oh why
Was I so blind
Me an educated male
Straight from Yale
You are a mess within
My garbage can
Like a gift straight from
A dumpster dive
I put my foot down
Stepped in some
And made my stand
Love is truly blind
And you're forever mine

ahahahaha! You sure know how to woo a girl.' A smile and demeanor of a dead frog.' The next person to rub me the wrong way will be getting a large dose of that little number. Truly enjoyable read. Thank you. |

I like this. I dropped out of high school when I was sixteen and worked at a fence company, working a bunch of different saws. Then, one day, age 17 I decided to join the Navy. Sounded really good. So I went to enlist. I took a test and back then they said it was good. So next thing I knew the recruiter took me to take the GED. I passed it. I remember that day very well. Everyone in the room had two days to take the GED, I looked like I was maybe twelve while most the others were in their twenties or even older and to me looked old. I finished in less than two hours turned in the test and sat at the back of the class. This pretty woman who gave us the GED test then called me up and said, well ... my name.. congratulations, you are now a high school graduate.
Then at the last minute, before I went into the Navy, I got hired at this research lab as an animal care taker making what I thought was the big bucks. It changed my life.
Anyway, we had pigs we did research on, and being a city boy I grew fond of them. I used to drive a van to pick them up from the pig farms, and yes they do have that, you know horrid smell. They kept them in these horrible
Pig cubicles and they slopped around in this ugly muddy landscape. So, anyway, I would take the little tiny cute pig back to where we did biological research and I'd take care of them, and they would grow up really quick. I'd care for them in a completely different environment where it was actually much cleaner. I would walk them on a leash and discover how damn smart they were. I had to force pills down their snouts, but they seemed to forgive me and trust me anyhow somehow.
Pigs skin is similar to human skin, the fat layers and most especially the mesentery that arises from the posterior peritoneal cavity..
And yeah, they are smart too as I've stated.
Me too I thought back then. Luckily some nice folks working there thought the same.
I wasn't good at school when I was young. School wasn't good for me I guess.
Because of those pigs I figured things out.
Your poem
made me think back about myself.
Thanks!
Peace! |

Love is blind, you had me laughing by the end.
The Temptations' song "Beauty's only skin deep" comes to mind. |

I once begged for a £1 to give to brvger who had begged to me a few mins prior, at that precise moment in time,
I genuinely had no change to offer him
I felt awful to let him down
I was in toen
I wasn/'/t a liah
Lady lazarus and the rich man
Devilish 2nd sim
Number of a man
666
I paid him back for the £1 I begged to borrow to give to the begger I had previously had to let down
For Kings are beggars and beggers are kings
Vut only Satan is in such aw of these things
For as Bob said many times before and since
Everything that I have been through and
Unfortunately, still do, Co continously go through
Would have been too much for everyone else he had ever met, to have endured and maintained a pure heart and stayed pure and true,
And yet here I was, a heart of gold an ex prostitute,
So why were my morals and empathy even more intact than most holy men even attain too.
I still love a drink and the blood of christ too much even now, so over and out, ile leave the rest up to you xx |
