FRAGMENTS

 .

THINKING OF SOME OLD LINES I REMEMBER I  WROTE IN SOME OLD POEMS AWHILE AGO...FUNNY HOW I REMEMBER CERTAIN LINES BUT NOT THE WHOLE POEMS

LIKE

WHY DON'T YOU SAY WHAT YOU MEAN

WHTY DON'T YOU MEAN WHAT YOU SAY

OR

ALONE IN A ROOM FULL OF STRANGERS

SHUT OUT LOCKED AWAY IN A TOMB OUT OF DANGER

NOT SURE IF THAT SECOND LINE IS WORD FOR WORD OR NOT FEELS A LITTLE OFF TO ME BUT CLOSE TO THE ORIGINAL I THINK...MAYBE IT WAS LIKE

BUT I'M SHUT OUT

THEY CAN'T HEAR ME

I SCREAM AND SHOUT

LIKE I'M LOCKED AWAY IN A TOMB OUT OF DANGER....SOMETHING SIMILAR TO THAT I THINK...GOTTA SEE IF I CAN FIND THAT ONE...

BUT WONDER WHY THOSE LINES POP INTO MY HEAD SOMETIMES...LIKE DO THEY WANNA BE REVISITED WITH A FRESH PERSPECTIVE OR SOMETHING OR ARE THEY JUST MEMORABLE FOR SOME ODD REASON TO ME...HMMMM

ANOTHER ONE I  JUST REMEMBERED I HAD A TUNE TO I USED TO PLAY ON MY CASIO WENT SOMETHING LIKE

THE ROAD IT IS LONG

IT'S LONG AND UNCERTAIN

UNCERTAIN DEAR YES IT IS

BUT I WILL BE THERE

TO HELP TO SEE YOU THROUGH...

OK ANYWAY THOSE FRAGMENTS POP INTO MY HEAD SOMETIMES...

AS I WRITE THIS I WAS JUST THINKING ABOUT A POEM I WROTE THE OTHER DAY WITH A LINE AND  ENDED UP BEING THE TITLE TOO...IS IT WHERE IT IS...NOW WHO WOULD SAY SUCH A THING....GEEZ..KINDA MIND BLOWING...THEN I DECIDED TO RECITE THAT ONE BUT AFTERWARDS DECIDED IT WOULD BE COOLER WHISPERED SO PROMPTLY DELETED THE SPOKEN WORD VERSION AND REPLACED IT WITH A WHISPERED ONE.....KINDA OUT THERE...MAKES ME LAUGH...I THINK OF MR CHARLES CARMAN WHO WAS AN OLD MANAGER AT A PLITT THEATER AT WATER TOWER PLACE  I WORKED AT IN MY YOUNGER DAZE LIKE JUST OUT OF HIGH SCHOOL...I WAS THERE A FEW YEARS AT LEAST ANYWAY...I WAS ALWAYS OFF ON WEIRD TANGENTS AND GOOFING AROUND WITH EVERYONE AND HE USED TO SAY ONE OF THESE DAYS THE MEN IN THE WHITE COATS ARE GONNA COME FOR YOU AND I THOUGHT OF THAT SONG FROM DR DEMENTO...THEY'RE COMING TO TAKE YOU AWAY....HA HA...THAT ALWAYS MAKES ME LAUGH....HE SAID IT JOKINGLY AND LAUGHED ABOUT IT BUT I SENSED A BIT OF TRUTH IN THERE...HA HA...OK  ENOUGH OF THIS SILLY STUFF...FRAGMENTS IT IS...
