The Burning of the Bridge outside Concord, Followed by that Night outside Lexington, and Then, Somehow, the Kiwi Lux.

Hello hope, good day, how you do?
I like to think that all is well.
But like a rush of a sonic beauty comes something,
Magnificent you might say.

You can't silence my love.
The sky brightens up as the night darkens as the sunrise
Bursts in bold displays of beneficence.
The tree catches fire in the middle of winter.

How sad, the burning arbor!
And it seemed so well.
And it seemed so free.
But everything inside of me surrenders instead.

With the authority I am granted—
Oh, I am a failure—
But what power I have!
These choices…these choices…

The soul comes ripping out,
Remade and renewed,
Refreshed with a test of irony,
Halleluyah, you cannot silence my love.

I am a sinner! I am a saint!
There is a season for everything—
I am cast away, I am gathered in.
Our hearts still beat, still beat.

Let's go, let's go, let's go, and beyond the horizon.
But who is gathered first,
The wheat or the tares?
You cannot silence my love.

Dear white flower, good day, how you do?
One couldn't imagine a more beautiful you.

The ones that run me through,
They run me through for you.

What the cow am I talking about?
No one knows, quite literally....

  3. Nice.

    Hey, if you take...

    What the cow am I talking about?
    No one knows, quite literally....

    and you switch the first word in each line and place it after "knows" and "cow" it's kind of interesting...

    The cow...what am I talking about? (It's Possible this is why Al`eh said you lost your mind)

    One knows no quite literally...

    Of course you probably did not mean to do this. Maybe you did? We'll never know for sure, because if you really did loose your mind, we would have no clue if you were really saying what you meant..........*cough*

  4. I find this interesting...

    First, yes, I am quite blessed.

    Second, if I lost my mind, then there is a very good reason for it.

    Third, I intended every word I put into this poem, except for maybe the ones that I placed in there are random because they sounded like they come from a song. Such as lines 1, 8, 13, 16, 17, 18, 20, 21, 24, 25, maybe 26, and 27.

  5. And other than that, there are many 'what the cow' combinations, depending on where you put the emphasis. "What? The cow?" "What...the...cow." "What? THE cow??" "What, the Cow" etc.

  6. I'm so glad that I don't have to go in your mind for any period of time Jared, because I wouldn't know where up or down is. But if I had to I would probably just hang with the white flower, I think I would get along with her pretty well.

    P.S. I just have to say this to be funny..... What the cow are you talking about! :P
